Commit To Violence

"It’s done," she said.

"How’d he go?" Black asked his assassin.

Monika laughed. "Up in smoke."

"What about the other one?"

"He took two, but he’s gone, too."

"Any problem?"

"Are there ever?"

"You’re the woman. We’ll talk in the morning." Black thought for a second. "You are going to come to Kenny’s funeral, aren’t you?"

"I hadn’t planned on it," Monika said.

"Under the circumstances, I’d appreciate it if you did."

"Understood. I guess I’ll see you in the morning. "

"Monika."

"Yeah."

"Come heavy," Black said, letting Monika know that he wanted her to come armed to the funeral.

"Is there any other way with me," Monika said, reminding Black that she was always armed.

Black laughed a little. "That’s why I love you, big ass."

"You keep on talkin’ that shit and one day I’m gonna hold a gun to your head and take me some of that big dick."

"Promises, promises," Black said and ended the call. He handed the phone back to Victor. "Take me by Cynt’s and then you can go fuck Sabrina."

"What about Bo?" Victor asked as he drove toward Cynt’s.

"Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you, Bo is dead. His car blew up."

"Hank?"

"Hank took two. He’s dead too."

"Mind if I ask you a question."

"Go ahead."

"Who is Monika?"

"She does things for me. You’ll meet her tomorrow."

Victor parked Black’s Cadillac in front of Cynt’s and handed the keys to Black. "You did good tonight, kid."

"Thanks for lettin’ me ride with you. I know I can learn a lot from you," Victor said.

Black threw him back the keys to the Caddy. "You know where I live?"

"Yes, sir," Victor said.
