One fateful night

4

Fuck. Was he out of his damn mind?? He was the-excuse my language-goddamn chauffeur! Still, here he was getting himself drunk. I couldn't believe it. At this moment I wasn't even able do fathom why he had done this. Henri had never been good socially but he was serious about his job: never turned up late, never complained about long drives in the middle of the night when Al-Fayed craved his not so fancy McDonalds. And most importantly : never drove while drunk.
For a few more moments I was too shocked to move, stunned by this irresponsible, dangerous behavior. Then I snapped out of my trance and looked around, realizing I had neglected my duty as a bodyguard in the last ten minutes but I reminded myself I was in one of the safest hotels and that it was the least of my worries at the moment.
With one last glance around the restaurant I slipped of my seat and made my way towards the door Henri had disappeared through earlier. I wasn't a very confrontational person but when it came to the safety of someone else, I did everything in my power to keep them safe - bodyguard instincts.
I entered the hallway and headed to the right towards where I expected the loo to be. Once I got to the end of the hallway, I was greeted by a heavy wooden door, on it a sign telling me I arrived at the men's room. I pushed the door open and slipped I side. Even here everything looked expensive. A huge mirror covered most of the wall above the sinks and to my right where endless rows of stalls.
Unsure how to find Henri, I decided to wait for a while. Five minutes later he still hadn't emerged from any of the stalls like I hoped he would. I was about to leave, thinking I might have missed him and I would meet him at the bar, when I heard a sound from a stall against the far wall.
„Henri?", I asked softly. No answer. I walked towards the sounds when all of a sudden heard it again, right next to me, coming from an unlocked stall. The door was ajar.
„Henri, are you in there?" No answer.
„Hey, can I come in?" No answer.
I took it as a yes. I slowly pushed the door open and found myself eye to eye with the barrel of gun.
