            I shuddered, taking a deep breath in. "Yeah, I'll be fine, I guess," I shrugged. I needed to pull myself together. I needed Steve to cool down and get his head back into the game, so that he would help me with what I needed to do.

Steve rubbed his chin in thought. "That bastard..." he murmured. "The audacity of him to approach you, when he's spent his whole life not saying a word to you. I'm a better man than he'll ever be." Steve's hand balled into a fist.

"Steve, calm down..." I murmured, and he rolled his eyes, looking agitated. "I don't want to talk about that. It's just gonna put me in a shitter mood," I said quickly. "I wanna talk about what I told you about on the phone earlier."

It was time that I switched the topic of the conversation to Thomas.

"Yeah, that..." Steve began, rolling his eyes again. "But we're talking about your dad another time. This shit isn't fucking over."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever," I said quickly, and then took a deep breath in. "So, how are we going to get rid of Thomas?" I asked. "The way he stared at me in the club... if we don't eliminate him fast, I just know he's gonna do something terrible to me. He looks different from the way he did all those years ago. He's a lot colder... It was like he was showing traits of a psychopath." I broke off my sentence, looking uneasy.

"Relax," Steve said calmly. "I've got it all sorted. I'm gonna send some of my boys out to try and look for him, and find his location. Once we figure out whereabouts he's staying in Birmingham, it'll be a lot easier, because once that's sorted, we can fix something up. We'll be able to find a way to put a bullet through him, without attracting heat from the feds."

I nodded attentively, rubbing my chin in thought. Steve explained his plan to me to the very last detail. I absorbed it all in, paying attention to every single word.

It was time for me to get my revenge on Thomas at last.
