A Man With Dead Eyes

Hey

September 24

Jae POV

I had so many thoughts running through my head. We were in the middle of a heist. A smaller employee from the bar stood up. He was dark and had unusually colored eyes. They were bright orange. Is he staring at me?  He stared into my eyes for a moment before running out of the building. I watched him leave. "Jae!" My boss Ruphus was yelling at me.

"Sir", I yelled back.
"Let's go. Our getaway driver is here."
We got in the van and left. After arriving at the base the money was evenly split between the gang. Once I received my share I went home. I guess it could be called home. I slept in the forest every night. I went to sleep in the tree I usually stay in. I woke up at noon. I had an appointment at the hair salon in ten minutes. I went to the salon. When I walked in I saw the small employee from yesterday. He saw me too. He looked afraid. One of the other employees told me to sit in station three. I walked past the small boy and sat at station three. "What are we doing today", he asked his voice shaking. "Re-dying my hair and roots", I replied. He left and came back with some dye. After he dyed my hair I paid and left. I hid in the ally next to the salon waiting for the boy to leave. A few hours later he left the salon. He walked down 7th street. I followed him. A while later he looked over his shoulder in my direction. He started to run. I chased him to Rose Garden Apartments. He pulled a key out from under a rug and unlocked the door. He ran inside and slammed the door behind him. I waited outside his house until he left the next morning. I followed him to the salon. He ran again. I followed him for a few more days. Once I was sure he wasn't a threat I stopped. I spent the next morning with Ruphus. We were planning our next heist. "Any ideas for the heist boys?" Ruphus said in a serious tone. Everyone started to bounce ideas. My brother Kurt spoke up. "How about Golden Keys ?"
"That's a great idea"
Kurt smirked after hearing that. I hate him. He was always the favorite. Always acting like an angel around everyone except me. Soon after the meeting ended. I got out of there as fast as I could. We're supposed to meet here tomorrow to discuss the details. I was walking through the city garden when I saw the boy from the salon. He has this cute smile on his face. He was staring at some daisies. Before I could think about what I was doing I walked over and sat next to him. He looked at me his eyes wide and glossy. He looked like he was going to cry. He didn't. He just stared at me eyes wide. "Hey"
