Joseph Gardner was the Vice President to Ricardo Shilishali, the president. "You are the president's escort, correct?" He asked me. "Yes." I say. He told me that in the car I would poison the president's drink and kill him or he would make me watch him kill my family.
"Don't do it." Said my husband "I have to." I replied weaping. It was the only choice I had. The Vice president finally left our house.
"I need to sleep on this." I said. I drifted to sleep thinking of the choice I'd have to make next week when I am in the presidential limo.
