I just witnessed a mob hit。 The lighter flicks like the sound of a gunshot。 Smoke from his cigarette slips through the cracks of my hiding place。 His dark chuckle haunts future nightmares I’ll never get to have。

Please walk away。 Please。

The sound of a zipper。。。and then his voice: “Faith Jacobson。 580 Flatbush Avenue。 Brooklyn。”

He’s got my wallet。 My driver’s license。 He knows who I am。 It’s over for me。 He flings open the lid of the dumpster。 The nearby streetlight illuminates me， and suddenly he decides I’m not dying tonight。

No， I am now to become a gift。。。 to his even deadlier brother。

I just became the property of Leo Raspallo。
