Hooked Dangerously

Dilemma

“I've been living in the corners;
I know I could run, but there's nowhere to hide”

I staked out in front of the Costello mansion in a black SUV disguising myself perfectly in a white hijab and black gown, a sunshade over my eyes and a perfect makeup to look 10 times more than my age.

I waited patiently for them, it wouldn't be long for them to get moving, they can't stay in the house for too long.

I wanted to know who or what the Costello's are trying to control, who knows it might lead me to the file so I can be done with this.

That old man was right, this is the most tedious work I've ever taken in, most of them was just to barge in, kill people and retrieve what's on the table.

But now, I'm even staking out disguised in this rubbish.

I needed a more solid way to go about this mission, staking out may not lead me to my desired point.

But I have to do it, the old man is after my neck and I know they won't hesitate to eliminate me if it's a conclusion they've made.

It's hard living this kind of life, constantly putting myself in danger just to please some assholes sitting behind tables annoyingly feeling like they own your life or some sort.

I sighted two black Mercedes speeding at the light of speed from the Costello's mansion.

They speed past me, not able to notice my car parked behind a tree in disguise.

I'm very sure Viturin was in one of the cars, they were the only ones in the house when I left and I believe they are heading somewhere that I might find useful.

I followed suit behind them at an unrecognized pace, carefully routing the road they followed.

They were speeding at an incredible fast pace, making it a bit hard for me to keep up and still be able to hide my existence.

The drive was taking longer than I thought, it was like they were moving out of the city, driving through the busy roads, to the lonely streets, to an isolated street, till I was afraid of my identity being revealed.

I gave them more distance, I can't risk it this point, I have less than a week and I don't need to mess it up.

They finally began to slow down, at a vast empty area with what looked like an abandoned industry, looking dead on the outside.

I stopped my car, many meters away from them that I could barely see what was happening.

I got a telescope, first of all checked the whole area before focusing on the Costello boys.

The driver was talking to man in a black overall, he quickly checked the back seat, bowed and proceeded to open the steel gate.

They drove in and that was the point it got me.

I know for sure that there's more behind that steel gate and old rusty building and an empty land as far as my eyes could go.

I guess the area is restricted to people and me being here might be danger.

I need to get into the buildings, and see for myself what's really going on.

I should have bugged him, at least I could be able to hear what's going on.

My phone began to ring from the car, picked it up and found out the old man was calling me.

"What is it now."
