" It's going to be ok , Gerald," Alfred said softly as he pressed a table cloth he had yanked off a nearby table against the man's chest to hold back the slight flow of blood. He also delivered a gentle kiss to his pallid sweaty forehead. " You are going to be ok. "
Matilda, on the other side of Gerald, glanced at the two of them in surprise. As did Marco Martinez from across the room.
Nigel said through clenched teeth," You really are stupid, Skip Sands. I'm not calling Spencer. You are not going to hurt him anymore. Give up. "
Skip paced back and forth. Then he stopped and aimed the gun back at Nigel's head. Matilda coolly slipped her hand into her little black purse that she held on her lap.
" I'm sick of you rich bitches. You fucking freak. You stand there looking like you belong in a horror movie. Looking so high and mighty. Married to some rich lawyer. You don't know what being poor is like. That man ruined my life. Just like Winston Arnett did. But I got him good. " He laughed harshly. " Got his ass good. Gave him what you all love so much. Best in his life too I bet. Gave him a gift too. You both will be twins now. " He kept laughing. " I'm going to give Spencer a gift too. I'm going to kill him. I'm going to videotape his dying too and have you send it to his big protector hubby too. Now make that call or I will shoot you."
Nigel shook his head. " No. "
Skip's finger tightened on the gun he pointed at Nigel.
Alfred's arms drew Gerald closer as the older man shut his eyes.
Matilda's hand came out of her purse.
Then a gun shot went off again.
