Whistle For Cab 9
A Quadromania Drabble
I was drivin' Cab 9 while Hutch and me were lookin' for this guy.
He was killin' drivers in a certain type cab from the same cab stop.
I was done in. I needed sleep. Wonder what woulda happened if Hutch had let me sleep?
I was so comfortable. Did ya know I can sleep about anywhere? Ya learn that special talent during Stakeouts 101. A good partner to take his shift and then you just shut your eyes and pass out.
Not tonight though. It's 5 a.m. and he pulls up right beside me. That damn shrill whistle scared the hell outta me.
'Just let me sleep', I grumble.
'How can you sleep when this nice old lady needs a ride?' Hutch assured the woman that I'm up to the task.
What woulda happened if he had never disturbed my sleep?
But then, no three times around the park. No one would have heard Lincoln and Pine. No one to come after me.
The next poor slob with my windpipe crushed. This time, all because I wanted to sleep, I'd be dead without the hope of rescue.
Maybe I'm glad I heard that whistle.
Maybe I'm glad Hutch came along.
