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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CPN96Dq0b
When he raised up his head to look at her, he lolled his head.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhh6fhTSLoV
“Jimmy!” It was more than a scream. She ran to him and grabbed his face.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFM1YWv36e9
“What the hell happened to you,Jimmy,” She panicked.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTZgGQ4SC9
He released her grip on him and stared.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLv0Z60Wct
“Now get up and put on some clothes,” She instructed.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡud3Wn4k6Od
“Are you my girlfriend,” he asked.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONiD6twACB
“Just do as I say okay.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLctHCFroy
Soon Jimmy was dressed with his hair tousled and they went to a restaurant. She ordered snacks and juices for them.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEhETVsGMx
“Why did you return?” Jimmy asked. “Why don’t you guys just quit?”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsxNehq749
“Mr Vlad has been sacked since last year October and Mr Roy
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0YUi4iAgX
is now Chief,” Penelope started. “He has been a good boss. Very reliable.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIxYp5dyMP
“Why are you telling me all this now?” Jimmy asked.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsS1DpnTWEO
“Look Jimmy we need you even though you don’t know,” Abigail pointed out.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhmYCdN9mg
“Well I don’t need you guys,” Jimmy repiled stiffly, looking away.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6NNyslre5
“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.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJep13eedF
He didn’t answer. He had long stop blaming her in his heart but he felt guilty.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pd5R74tv4
“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.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgaR6X04yM
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 “
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhq6o7nzXr
Jimmy raised an eyebrow. “ I.E?”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvucOqOIKBn
“ Ironic Expression.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmeJhJAn4u
Penelope laughed.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3dBYLkEGo
“ You have not changed a bit, Mr Roy. You still use your intials for that?”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADyv5cCpwq
“ You have not changed either,” Mr Roy answered. “ You still have your heaet. I feared you wouldn’t come!”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxp11S7dzVm
Jimmy glanced at Abigail. “Well, you sent the right someone and that someone got my weakness straight on point.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06OpOoXBE7
Abigail smiled and Mr Roy gave her a thumps up.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX8magpgZu
“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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPadsiMrhw
“We are glad to have you back here Jimmy. We can’t hide out joy,” Mr Roy started.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAmWCRPXKv
“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.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLXFU5XuO5
Batton scoffed and shrugged. “I don’t care.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyjf6qJaEH
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCef4IEmM4K
“No scuffles now please,” Penelope intervened and turned to Mr Roy. “Please begin.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi13sBQboBZ
“So what’s the SF gotten so far?” Jimmy asked, deliberately taunting Batton. “It can’t be nothing since we have a smartie here.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUmxEIdsmb
“Of course it isn’t nothing. May I do the honour of saying the information?” Batton looked at Mr Roy direction.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9yJjs6ovG
“Sure,” Mr Roy repiled.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEn8jxhYZ8C
Batton turned to Jimmy with a grin.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6xTZt1hXE
“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.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8hm02L9Yi
Jimmy returned the grin.”Well it must be something important that you are so useless to do. How about that?”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvsGJLUvuN
Batton flushed angrily but kept his calm.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynHTM4yddp
“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.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyK786N7Lf
Jimmy chuckled. “So you brought me in to pass a death sentence to me?”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3qluGGv78
“We are all under a death sentence passed unto us by God but we don’t just know the day of execution,” Neil said.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbyt5KLQjM
Jimmy turned to him. “So you are acting the pastor now?”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdfENMXkF8
Neil shrugged.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8Ovnm9w46
“You know something Neil, I will use your words against you someday,” Jimmy said and turned to Mr Roy. “So who’s the receiver?”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NJxjPoZXk
Mr Roy turned to Penelope.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXmIlQ3GIL
“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.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkYmD3lxqi
Mr Roy completed the explanation. “So we need five people for this job; the thief, the pickpocket, the seducer and two guards.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3t00FYIJI
“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.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8yjtvsZk7
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvB5JSPbqMY
“Hey Robin. It’s been a while,” Jimmy said.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyM61LiAIQr
“Hey my pal Jimmy,” the person repiled. “Come on in.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNosrFhjd7W
Jimmy walked inside. He sat while Robin prepared coffee for them.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufuG36tKSi
“Here,” Robin said giving Jimmy a cup.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdwrd5Rltm
Jimmy accepted it. “Thanks.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9FsNSk5xY
Robin sat. “So what brings you here jimmy? Or should I say what favour do you want to ask for?”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8SUXBSGIw
Jimmy grinned. “Well since you know, I will go straight to the point. I do need a favour.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngMCeDoE21
“I knew it! You seldom stop by for any other purpose. So what’s it?”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRARJFjTDx
“I have a mission from the SF,” Jimmy started.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1Y30VY0yq
Robin lifted an eyebrow. “You back there?”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIXPDHBuYc
Jimmy nodded. “I am on a last mission. I need you to be the pickpocket.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoD7qsSphI
Robin friendly look faded away. “I am done with that part of my life.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXACYWWpqoj
“Please Robin. Take this as the last favour.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITUfWZo23g
There was a moment of hesitation. “It won’t be the last favour but you own me one.”
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPoMQGp9vq
Jimmy grinned.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n4xtaN8uz
“He agreed,” Jimmy announced when he got back into the car.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizX9qtrjzX
“Jimmy, you are doing the most dangerous of the mission. Stay safe,”Penelope said with concern.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqujU2172p
“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.”
