DARK CLOUD WITH LITTLE SILVER LINING

Everything was set for today . This is the day they'll be transporting millions of shillings to the bank in their little fancy trucks. Too bad we'll set the trucks on fire. Whomever picked them out did quite the good job and the paint job too is fantastic. I'm in the mafia I know but doesn't mean I don't get to be a girl!

There are three trucks which means with two persons in each, we have to neutralize six people in total. Not a problem. Livo, five of our men and I traveled to the city today to get our mission ongoing.

"Everyone remember their task? " I ask.

They all nod stiffly.

"Good, eight minutes and we are out. Be quick on your feet. " I felt a strong need to add that part.

They again nod in understanding.

"Good luck everyone! "Livo says with a determination on his face.

"Make a mess. " I encourage with a smirk.

Infinity, I'm coming for you. I'm going to cripple you.

The plan is to wait for the trucks in the ghetto area where their warehouse is located at. They go there to load the money in the trucks. I thought it better to rob them in the slums rather than in the commercial area of the city in the middle of the day.

I had to pay some local goons to keep the locals out of our way. I'm not sure they are reliable but I hope my promise for big money to them makes them show up to work. Either way, we are going on with our mission.

In our hideouts, we watch as the trucks pull up outside an old building. In a few, we'll be setting the eight minutes. I dig inside my inner pockets and take out a little cross. A pin. I will send one of the drivers with the pins so the Infinity knows who hit them.

They hurriedly get to work. Packing the money into the trucks. Once they are done and get back into the trucks to leave, I set the eight minutes. Show time.

Livo gives the signal to go after we exchange glances. And so, we bounce. One of our men drives an ice cream across the narrow streets. This brings all three trucks to a halt with deafening screeching and hooting. The guy apologizes to them but doesn't get off the road yet explaining that his truck has broken down stalling for us to strike.

And we pounce on the trucks . But something really weird happens. Two police cars appear from nowhere from the front. What? I was onto the last truck. So I see the only thing to do is abort mission. But I leave a stinky surprise to that truck. I signal to the guy I was with to abort mission.

I peep around the car and see the police talking to our man with the ice cream truck. They seem to be harassing him. What do I do? I just can't leave him behind. So I instruct the man I was with to get everyone else out of there and then I'll get the ice cream guy. We agreed to meet at some pub in the next estate in like five minutes. So we part ways.

I sneak to the police vehicles and get in one. The plan was to turn on the sirens to get their attention but seeing the idiots left the keys in ignition I decide to drive the car away. I had to squeeze my way through the narrow street and once I'm past the trucks, I speed down the dusty road.

I could hear yelling from the police. Looking through the rear view mirror I see they left our guy and a cop is running after me. Another is talking on the police radio I can hear in the car I'm in. The other two look like they are going to get in the other car and chase me.

Then I see a mob appear from nowhere. Finally! At least they showed up. Now I hope they take care of the cops. Speaking of whom, I see they all rush into that one car and reversing out of the place. The Infinity trucks also leave with them. But something heart shattering catches my eye, Livo got in one of the trucks.

This makes me take instant brakes. I want to believe I didn't see him but I know it was him. I hope it's all for good. I hope he has a plan. I hope this is not him crossing us. I hope he'll be okay with whatever stupid thing he thinks he's doing . But I'm obviously pissed at him for not telling me about it. Last I checked, I am the boss. And he had insisted I be the boss when I offered him the chance to take my place.

Amidst everything though, I can't help feel a pang in my chest that I don't know why I have it. So I push the button that sends the last truck flying in the air and bursting into flames. Money on fire floats in the air. I have a satisfied grin on my face. It's beautiful!
