Chapter 9

Few of days later I walk up to a tavern and sit at the bar looking around I spot the man I'm looking for. I stare at him as I feel a presence behind me but I don't look back. "He has a girl but I don't think that's why you're staring at him." "You're right that isn't why I'm staring at him." "If you're a cop I suggest you get out of my bar" "What if I'm not a cop?" "Well, then I can entertain you back at my place." I turn to face him and see that he is a long haired Asian man. "What can I get you mama sita?" "Corona." He pops the top and hands me a cold one. "So you never did answer me." "What was your question?" "You interested in coming back to my place?" I laugh and shake my head. "Trust me Han you can't handle Jinx and her crazy adventures." I turn around and hug Dom and Letty. "Jinx huh how'd you get that name?" "By taking on guys two to three times bigger than me and knocking them out." "Damn no wonder you wanted her here Dom." "So what is the job?" Dom takes my hand and we walk out of the tavern. We walk over to a gas station and it is empty as I look around no one is driving. After we went back to the garage they work at. They tell me how trucks of gasoline pass by the town and never stop in it. Their plan is to hijack them using tow trucks and liquid nitrogen. Sounds easy enough except for the fact that Dom wants me on the truck with the nitrogen.

There is a trucker coming by this week and that is the one we are planning on hitting. Dom is trying to send Letty home because it is too dangerous to be around him but she isn't listening. am just sitting on the beach admiring the peace before the storm. "So how do you and Dom know each other?" Han asks interrupting my quiet. "If you really must know he took me in when I needed a place to stay." "What about you?" "He saw my driving skills then when they stopped delivering gas asked if I wanted to help steal it back." We just sit there silently for a few more minutes, until Dom comes and interrupts our thoughts. "Alright, change of plans Kitten you'll be riding with Han and Letty will be on the trucks." I nod. Han and I walk to his truck. "Oh Han she better come back in one piece, or I will hurt you." I laugh as Han just nods. We get in and take off once on the highway I look to Han. "What's on your mind?" "Dom you're like..." "His sister he is very protective of me. He knows how hard it was for me before he came along." "I'm sorry." "It's all good. Show me what you got Han." "How about this if I can turn us around in one go you have to go out with me." "If you don't you stop hitting on me." "Deal" we shook hands just as Letty jumped onto the truck. Han swerves left then right as he pulls the E-brake and we drift hundred eighty degrees "Damn it." I state as I climb out the back window. I stand up and walk over to the hitch, picking it up I flip it down and onto the hitch. Letty brakes it free and I feel the truck jerk and I slightly fall forward. As Han slows us down I get back inside the truck. "Nice work Han." "Thank you now I'll pick you up tonight at 9." "Fine" I cross my arms and slouch in my seat. We drive to a secluded area and park the truck and unhitch the gas tankers.
