Ghost of the past

I'll stretch out on the bed and let out a slight yawn.

"How about we lie in bed... All day? "I ask.

"Unfortunately I can't" says sitting on the bed. "The job is waiting for me. "

She gets up and goes to the wardrobe, I watch her while she goes through the doors and drawers picking up some clothes.

"What a beautiful sight" I speak.

"Idiot" says taking some of my clothes that were thrown on the floor and throwing them in my face. "Get dressed right away. "

" Okay, okay. "I take the clothes and I get up. "I'll make breakfast, just get ready," I'll talk out of the room.

Now I'm in the living room, which is also the kitchen. Yasmin has a small apartment in the city centre, he is still paying the installments, but he can afford to say that he has his own house, something difficult to conquer in this city.

I go to the sink, get a pot and fill it with water from the filter, then I put on the fire, start preparing a coffee. I can hear the sound of the shower being turned on. Then I'm going to the little warehouse next to the refrigerator.

"I forgot we didn't shop this month.

"We're out of anything for breakfast, I'm going to the bakery to buy some things" I speak up so you can hear me from inside the shower.

Almost instantly you can hear the noise of the shower stop and the sound of light steps that increased as you approached. Yasmin appears in the room, dripping because he couldn't dry himself and covered by a white towel.

"Stay home, I will. "says with a serious face.

I have a little laugh. She was the only person I trusted completely since my life became a mess, the first to listen to everything that had happened to me, but even with so many problems that I brought was also the one who accepted me. She was as paranoid as I was, afraid she'd never come back out that door again.

"Don't worry. "I'll walk to her while I talk and give her a light kiss on the lips. "I'll go fast, just buy a few things, just finish tidying up, maybe I'll get there before I can even be ready. "

Just as it was a constant concern of hers, it was also routine the words 'You don't have to worry' that he said to her.

"You know very well what to do," says the woman as I distance myself from her. "Don't talk to strangers, just go and come back as soon as possible. "

I pick up a hat and sunglasses, keep them near the door, after all, I need them every time I go out.

"At that moment you spoke exactly like a mother. "I'll put them on and get to the door.

"Just stop with the jokes, go and run back! "scream.

"Right, right. "I wave goodbye and close the door.

When I leave the apartment, I come across the usual scene. A small hall with several doors around, in the front part only the stairs, we were on the third floor of a five-story building. I walk down the steps, on the way I pass a man wearing an overcoat, normally I would be worried, but I had seen him several times, he was Yasmin's neighbour.

"Good morning. "He says hello.

"Good morning. "I answer it and continue on my way as always.

Leaving the building, I close the front door. I really don't like the idea of living in a place that doesn't have an ordinance or something.

The weather wasn't so different from always, but as soon as I take the first step towards the street a breeze passes creeping my body. Since I arrived in this country I've been feeling very cold, maybe I've spent a lot of time in the south.

The bakery was only two blocks away, so as she had warned me, it was possible to run and come back quickly. Although Yasmin always tells me to stay at home, and I understand why, it's always good to go out and feel the fresh air a bit.

I walk to my destination, always trying not to attract too much attention. When I get to the store I go straight to where the loaves of bread are and look what might lead. I see that there are several macaroons and croissants that were made a short time ago, although I always hear 'You are generalizing' she still ate them with a happy face.

A great noise can be heard, several cars passing at high speed through the street, brake sounds and skidding tires could be heard. I'm going out of the bakery fast.

"What's going on? "I'm asking someone who was passing by.

"Only a few black cars have passed at high speed," answers the man. "I wonder what the police are doing while these delinquents do..."

Before I hear the completion of his monologue I start to run back home.

I hope you're just being too paranoid.

I run opposite the building, so at least I won't run into any of them if they're behind me. When I reach my destination my greatest fear becomes real. The cars were stopped in front of me. I go around the building going into an alley next to you.

"He wasn't there... "I hear someone's voice, it sounded like they were talking on their cell phone.

I quickly hide behind a dumpster. He was coming towards me.

"Yes, we find the woman, what do we do? "I hear your voice approaching. " Copy that.

The man turns off his cell phone and takes what appears to be a radio. When you squeeze to say something, I catch your hand and the spin breaking your arm. Before I can scream I put my two hands on your head, spinning quickly, breaking your neck. I pick up your body and throw it in the trash, before I pick up your radio.

I knew that in this alley there was a door for employees, I had stolen the janitor's key a few weeks ago, and I've been using that door at non-business hours.

"What are the boss's answers?"

The voice comes off the radio. I cannot answer, they would notice the sudden change of voice, so I have only one option, go as soon as possible, because they will find the lack of response strange.

I guess they didn't expect me to show up, they weren't on guard. I'm going up the floors and taking down some men in suits, everyone was armed. I'll take two guns.

When I'm on the second floor I hear screams coming from the third.

"Just tell me where he is. "A male voice vociferous.

"I won't tell you anything. "Yasmin shouts in response. "I'd rather be killed!

A cry of pain can then be heard.

I feel my blood heating up, I have to get here as soon as possible. She was shouting so that if I was close I could hear her, something like 'Don't come, I'd rather they pick me up. But I can't fulfill that wish.

On the second floor I run towards a door, shoot twice in its direction and throw my body against it, making it break. This is the apartment that's just below Yasmin's.

"He's here! Everybody keep an eye out! "The same male voice as before screams.

I can hear the sound of several people walking, both upstairs and downstairs.

There was no one in this apartment I came in, I'm grateful for that. I run to the window, I can see the emergency stairs. Behind me I hear the sound of fast pacing. Looking back, I see two men coming in.

"Just shoot, we don't need him..."

The one who enters first begins to speak, but his speech is interrupted, as is his life. A shot hits him in the head. The second one tried to aim in my direction, but another shot had already come out of the second gun. Perhaps by reflection or just as his last act in this world, his finger pulls the trigger, releasing a gust of gunshots that hit the wall behind me and climb to the ceiling.

I break the window and jump out. On top of me was another man in black, this time he shoots first, but without success, he could not hit his target, unlike my accurate shot. I take your gun, a submachine gun.

I'll go up to the fourth floor, without you going through the windows on the third. I can hear the sound of people moving in there. I'm sure you heard the shots. I attach my legs to the stairs and throw my body facing the window, standing upside down and shooting two men who were near the window. Then I jump in, breaking the window and cutting myself in the glass.

As soon as I fall into the room several shots come at me. I play to the side, returning the offensive with another gust of shots, which drops one, but the second deflects. There were two more in the room besides the armed, but they seemed to be without any weapon.
