Today's headline read how Widow, the famous mobster, murdered the top financial adviser to the mayor, and about how the mayor is going to have a higher level of security. It was certainly interesting, the headline. Every single time, Widow leaves more and more calling cards. It gets interesting, to see the pattern and how it's progressed, since she first started. When she started, I wasn't even writing the newspapers, just reading them. I kind of idolized her, when I grew up. I wanted to be fawned over like she is, living a life of danger on the run. I liked her more than I liked the movie stars.
They almost caught her, once. They say she's a blonde, a blonde Italian woman. She's got an accent. They say she's what they call a femme fatale. Gun in hand, black heels. She's glamorous, men want her, women want to be her. Never caught. People say she got married to a man named Jonathan, but that's about all they know. She's an entity, forever mysterious. She always works at night, after all you've never heard of a murder in the afternoon, have you?
The rest of her gang is interesting, too. One of her women, Anna, died a few years ago. They say typhoid got her, but that's all they know about her death. Some say that Widow killed her, to keep her from getting more power, which would...certainly be interesting. No one's really thought that she would be a bloodthirsty, power hungry, bitch. But...she could be. No one knows enough to pass judgement on her, she's an entity among the real ones. Al Capone, Machine Gun Kelly, Pretty Boy Floyd, they've all been caught. Everyone knows them, they're famous. Widow, though, she's different. No one knows who she is. Hell, she could be anyone, she could be the woman that walks beside you on the street.
Josephine Banfield came in to talk to me today. Ranting and raving about how she wants to find Widow, to finally be able to catch her. I suggested that she ask to take the case again, that she could maybe be able to find a new partner to help her with Widow and her case. She said she would never think of such a thing, that Ben was her only partner, that she could do the case by herself. She has so much hope in her, but...she barely escaped this case with her life. She doesn't realize this, I guess, but...she does need to consider this, I suppose. She's a smart girl, a lot of talent, and I don't want her talent to go to waste, just because she did one stupid thing in a moment of fear. She's got smarts, and she needs to use them correctly.
Since Ben died, though, Josie's been closed off. She barely talks to me, only comes here once a week, to discuss and see what the news has been over the past week. She's a sweetheart, and I guess losing her brother just broke her. She's strong, I guess she'll get through it eventually, but she doesn't seem to have gotten through, and it's been a few months. She's got such a good heart...I don't want her to get hurt just cause of some girl. Well, I mean...Widow isn't just some girl. She's a fucking legend, and I'd do anything to finally meet her. Not to the extent of Josephine, though. No, I wouldn't risk my life
Though..if I could convince Josephine to take me with her, as backup..then I could meet her. And, I'd be safe, Josephine's practically a bodyguard. She may be small, but she's downright terrifying to fight.535Please respect copyright.PENANAj5QuqR6R9e
Not like I'm speaking from experience.535Please respect copyright.PENANA82SkaJ2VHg
Adventuring with Josie, to find Widow, would be the thing of a lifetime. The story of a lifetime, too, one that could make my career..535Please respect copyright.PENANApmD6Z0Mvm5
I have to go with her. As long as she doesn't turn me down, then..then she'll let me. She knows I can fight, she practically trained me herself.535Please respect copyright.PENANAlKFhNHH8UT
Let's fucking do this.
