“You know the rules and so do I…”

The two men sat there in quiet anticipation. A hard earned camaraderie that was now rife with tension.

“A full commitment” the older man replied “is what I’m thinking of.”

He couldn’t be serious, the younger man thought to himself. They still had moves. Dangerous ones.

“I thin-“ the younger man started to say. “You wouldn’t get this from any other guy.” the older man interjected.

He’s right, the younger man thought. Agency’s got to stopped and needed to be kept at bay. A sacrifice would buy them enough time.

His eyes welled up for the first time in years, “I just wanna tell you how I’m feeling” “I know, we uh” the older man pausing to stifle his own sadness, “never gonna say goodbye.”

The younger man reached into his jacket, “Never gonna let you down.” BANG.
