THE PERFECT HEIST

Chapter II

"Hey Benji, glad you could make it,"
"Yeah, me too bro, couldn't miss your growing old party,"
"Hahaha, soon I might start looking for a retirement home,"
"Or even move back to the old farm house..."
"... I'm never going back to that shit hole."

That's Mike and Benji, the latter had just arrived at his friend's party. He knew he wouldn't make it today since he said have any money but let's just say it was a lucky day and he'd woken up on the right side. They were chatting for a while then Elizabeth showed up with the kids.

"Heeey, little Brian has grown taller." Mike liked teasing and playing around with the kids, he knew their struggle and how life wasn't easy for them. Their father had now started drinking and there was nothing positive about it. Mike had noticed this but he still wasn't ready to talk to his 'bro'. Today Elizabeth was rocking some oversized dark shades, quite unusuall, but a huge swollen patch of a  black spot could be seen bulging out right below her right eye.

Elizabeth had always been this beautiful young trophy since back in the day. The girl every guy in the hood wanted, even now there was still some who hadn't given up and had their eyes on her. But I wouldn't blame them. She looked perfect, light skinned, with long soft natural hair like a horse's mane. Pretty eyes and a small mouth with blushy pink lips. Her figure was just perfect with a bursty chest, I mean, even with three kids she'd still maintained her shape.

"Elizabeth, my favorite woman, after my wife of course," said Mike reaching out to hug her. He then whispered in her ear... "did he do that to your face... Oh God." He realized things were going from bad to worse with Benji. They chatted for a while, the kids had already ran off to play. A moment later Elizabeth also left to go help with the other women.
 
There and then Mike decided to spit it out, he wasn't ready to see his friend get a character they both resented. He had to do something, he had to know how he could help if there was a way.

"How's everything man, how's work?"
"I got fired,"
"What, bro I'd tried hard to clear your name so you could get this job and you just had to mess up!"
"Look, it wasn't even my fault, the boss kept putting me on the..."
"I don't even want to know what happened, you really are proving to be a pain in the ass, heard you're also back to drinking."
"It's the only thing am good at." That came out of Benji's mouth stupidly and Mike was starting to get mad. He just didn't want to kill his mood on his birthday so he went on like he didn't hear a thing.

"So what plans do you have, or are you not planning on getting back on your feet."
Mike asked as they both made strides to go make some barbeque.
"I've been thinking..." Benji said this sounding like the man who'd discovered science. Mike cut him short with a funny...
"I'm sure your head hurts,"
"Aaah, fuck you,"
And they both laughed it off, at least the air around was lighter.

"So what have you been thinking." Mike was an inpatient person you should know.
"Why should we be suffering while there's rich thieves in the government stacking the banks with their loot.".
By now Mike had an idea of where Benji was headed with his words but he was hoping, praying that it wouldn't be. He just wanted to get his mind away from the idea which had crossed his mind severally. But what else would the bird-brained Benji be thinking.
"...A heist,"
This word filled Mike's stomach with uneasiness and the feeling of throwing up even though he couldn't. He feared this all too much. But Benji still continued.
"I've been thinking and I came up with an idea, we could execute the most perfect heist in the history of heists in this country and it would be full proof.

Buckle up and hold on to whatever you can because the ride has just started. Do you think Mike would like Benji's plan to do a heist. Why don't you tell me what you think in the comment section. I hope you're loving it.
