Augustine started the van and drove headed for the highway. The orange sun was still emerging from the horizon bringing light upon the world and marking the beginning of a new day. He turned on the radio so as to listen to the 6 am news. He smiled as he heard the news about the bodies that had been discovered but his heart skipped a beat when he heard that they also found the young man's body which was in the river then he calmed himself down and thought (but eventually they were going to find it, its what they do ). After about ten minutes he was in West ridge, he went to a coffee shop close to the one which Tony and his girlfriend had gone to.

Augustine had breakfast there as he watched the employees come to work one by one, he knew who he was looking for and he wanted to be sure whether she had come to work today. Speak of the devil and he appears, the woman he was searching for was dropped off by a taxi in front of the cafe.

She was a slim very attractive woman who wore a short scotch skirt and a white crop top. As he watched her he began remembering about the night he killed Tony and his girlfriend, this girl had watched him closely  or maybe too close so she was a potential threat meaning she had to be eliminated. He waited for her to go at the back of the cafe to change before she started work at 8 am. He then got out of the cafe and went to his truck to take his ammo, he slowly screwed the silencer on his pistol and hid it in the leather jacket he was wearing.

As he closed the door he saw a BMW pull up in front of the cafe where Shilo worked and John stepped out, (why was he here?) he thought. He appeared at the back and aimed for Shilo from a very far distance when John emerged at the back and obstructed his view. There is front of him was one of the city's most brilliant detectives within his aim, all he had to do was pull the trigger and this case would go astray but no he had greater plans in mind so he withdrew, headed back to his van and drove away.

"So is this a date?" Shilo said smiling at Johny

"No just came to check on my new friend" replied the detective

"Ohw thats okay too i like it, well as you can see i am completely healthy friend" she said removing her blouse exposing her fine breasts held nicely by her bra

"Ohh okay then i better be on my way" Johnny said "anyway if you see anything unusual keep in touch" he added and turned to walk away

"You must really love her" she said now wearing her bar tender t shirt

"Why do you say so?" he turned and looked at her

"Don't act dump you know what i mean" she said folding the clothes she had removed

Johnny winked at her, went to his car and drove off. While he was on the highway a truck in front of him kept changing speed which pissed him off and he told the driver to pull over. He got out of his car and slammed the door behind him headed for the van driver who was now standing outside the vehicle.

"What is wrong with you?" Johnny asked frowning at the driver

"Forgive me Mon Ami i have a severe headache" said the man apologetically

"Show me your license" Johnny said and the man handed it to him "and your ID" he added "are you from around here?" he asked

"Not quite i was adopted here thats how i earned the citizenship i just chose to keep my surname" he replied

"Okay Mr Sala i advice you go and see a doctor because i sometimes get migraines they can do a number on you" advised the detective more calm now

"What pills do you suggest i take?" asked Sala softly rubbing his forehead

"Nicodim it works wonders" replied Johnny back to his normal self again

"Thank you Mon Ami and again i am terribly sorry for my bad driving" said Sala sincerely
