Four days but no word from Jimmy led Penelope walking to his house.

When she saw him, she was devastated. He looked like a madman; his hair was scattered and he looked dull. She never knew he could look like that.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvrqsKPXFA
When he raised up his head to look at her, he lolled his head.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpORkBgnAK
“Jimmy!” It was more than a scream. She ran to him and grabbed his face.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHrtOisehy
“What the hell happened to you,Jimmy,” She panicked.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6O4NC5ybm
He released her grip on him and stared.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1yJKLJNQV
“Now get up and put on some clothes,” She instructed.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPX8gyyU4l
“Are you my girlfriend,” he asked.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvfRaEzt8X
“Just do as I say okay.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnA2VjBsWZd
Soon Jimmy was dressed with his hair tousled and they went to a restaurant. She ordered snacks and juices for them.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJoUtWEE3O
“Why did you return?” Jimmy asked. “Why don’t you guys just quit?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRS1tTMwghp
“Mr Vlad has been sacked since last year October and Mr Roy
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrVKdie73R
is now Chief,” Penelope started. “He has been a good boss. Very reliable.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIPG8MfbTO
“Why are you telling me all this now?” Jimmy asked.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoj1B08yg6J
“Look Jimmy we need you even though you don’t know,” Abigail pointed out.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBK63WNNGC
“Well I don’t need you guys,” Jimmy repiled stiffly, looking away.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO2MKLk9i7
“So are you gonna ignore me again, after depriving me of the due care because of what happened?” She asked. “Tell me Jimmy. Tell me.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtybYfvPeU
He didn’t answer. He had long stop blaming her in his heart but he felt guilty.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZCu0iqNDo
“Fine. If you can’t do it for me, do it for Abigail. Who knows, you could find out the culprit and the real truth.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6iXOAarWo
Jimmy turned to her swiftly and she grinned.

Mr Roy sat expectantly formimg a steeple on his desk and leaning forward muttering prayers when the two people he expected walked in. he sprang up and cried. “ I am so disappointed you eventually decided to come “
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6he2JkUg1
Jimmy raised an eyebrow. “ I.E?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjAGRHktJZ
“ Ironic Expression.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9h9pSzcQ3
Penelope laughed.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmuNmFajAJ
“ You have not changed a bit, Mr Roy. You still use your intials for that?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6pFaGjdBp
“ You have not changed either,” Mr Roy answered. “ You still have your heaet. I feared you wouldn’t come!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKGltJKNjY
Jimmy glanced at Abigail. “Well, you sent the right someone and that someone got my weakness straight on point.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94XuettLiH
Abigail smiled and Mr Roy gave her a thumps up.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdU8hmJpkB
“Now I’m here. So what’s the deal?”

The five of them sat round the table; Mr Roy, Penelope, Jimmy, Neil and the ever arrogant but smart Batton.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8PeFDawYf
“We are glad to have you back here Jimmy. We can’t hide out joy,” Mr Roy started.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKDkljswbg
“Well I don’t think it’s everyone,” Jimmy said, glancing at Batton. “But don’t worry, this is the last mission. I repeat Mr Roy, the very last.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVqLHr2PZ7
Batton scoffed and shrugged. “I don’t care.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rIMZJSrfA
But he did. When Jimmy was still at work, they were both competing for the best. Jimmy was always far ahead and that was what spoiled their relationship. Earlier they had been friends. In fact, Batton was the one who talked Jimmy in to be part of the SF and now he regretted. Just when he thought he had no competitor anymore, Jimmy came strolling in and receiving praises. Ill-made relationship they say, was hard to cut off.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJm98D59DC
“No scuffles now please,” Penelope intervened and turned to Mr Roy. “Please begin.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbycvRjtiGA
“So what’s the SF gotten so far?” Jimmy asked, deliberately taunting Batton. “It can’t be nothing since we have a smartie here.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmN3QrCKCI0
“Of course it isn’t nothing. May I do the honour of saying the information?” Batton looked at Mr Roy direction.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gUjBFdIBH
“Sure,” Mr Roy repiled.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydQVXWdM4E
Batton turned to Jimmy with a grin.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4YXb052Ka
“Without your help, the SF found out that there is going to be a party at the leading hotel ballroom in two days and there will be an exchange of USB where a vital information we must get our hands on is,” Batton started proudly. “We also found the safe where the USB will likely be kept that night. So I don’t see any reason you were invited back.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkjU9M0oyT
Jimmy returned the grin.”Well it must be something important that you are so useless to do. How about that?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTXAb5ENkK
Batton flushed angrily but kept his calm.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCUrJDsWs6
“That is where you will come in Jimmy. So far your record have never been beaten,” Mr Roy said. “You are all attending and participating in the mission but we need you to do the most dangerous part. Getting to the safe.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQP5OgmrCFP
Jimmy chuckled. “So you brought me in to pass a death sentence to me?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGv9ZLsGs8
“We are all under a death sentence passed unto us by God but we don’t just know the day of execution,” Neil said.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJ123QPaca
Jimmy turned to him. “So you are acting the pastor now?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSs07plghdw
Neil shrugged.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJ0wOXzjE7
“You know something Neil, I will use your words against you someday,” Jimmy said and turned to Mr Roy. “So who’s the receiver?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVamyf5S77
Mr Roy turned to Penelope.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfJaUL48L2
“He is Mr Lewis, a multi-billionaire. An old money, his family is into glass,” She explained. “Our latest conclusion is that he is only a mere sponsor of the upcoming massacre and that is because he will make a profit from it.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChiO2iecZS
Mr Roy completed the explanation. “So we need five people for this job; the thief, the pickpocket, the seducer and two guards.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKqMpg44iA
“How about we do it this way? I will be the thief, Penelope will be the seducer, and Neil along with Batton will be the guards,” Jimmy suggested. “As for the pickpocket, I have someone in mind.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSV2lUIubcb
The car pulled in front of an old cottage. “Remain in the car,” Jimmy instructed and got down. He walked to the door and knocked on it softly. In some seconds, the door opened and someone stood in the doorway.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WDfreYFt7
“Hey Robin. It’s been a while,” Jimmy said.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZ4fE6VcXH
“Hey my pal Jimmy,” the person repiled. “Come on in.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjuAJZqxFh
Jimmy walked inside. He sat while Robin prepared coffee for them.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlKWmASe7M
“Here,” Robin said giving Jimmy a cup.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeZ483PxmD
Jimmy accepted it. “Thanks.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jZOsPOpW8
Robin sat. “So what brings you here jimmy? Or should I say what favour do you want to ask for?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYe9AcAizLr
Jimmy grinned. “Well since you know, I will go straight to the point. I do need a favour.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbnuYLP9Gb
“I knew it! You seldom stop by for any other purpose. So what’s it?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxYn3xd0FV
“I have a mission from the SF,” Jimmy started.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz47rtU643v
Robin lifted an eyebrow. “You back there?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1SHPGND4o
Jimmy nodded. “I am on a last mission. I need you to be the pickpocket.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1tuJU4cyD
Robin friendly look faded away. “I am done with that part of my life.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBvk2p9IUx
“Please Robin. Take this as the last favour.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47a9zDcF6S
There was a moment of hesitation. “It won’t be the last favour but you own me one.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFIOOL4f5I
Jimmy grinned.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwS0skEk2I
“He agreed,” Jimmy announced when he got back into the car.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5Hkky0osu
“Jimmy, you are doing the most dangerous of the mission. Stay safe,”Penelope said with concern.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7hJFvIauG
“If I don’t survive, remember you are the one who made me do this,” Jimmy repiled sending a wave of fear mixed with shock to Penelope. Then he added, "Don’t worry,I’ll be fine.”
