So how does it feel?
"Are you sure you want to do this hun?" said Kimi
"Yep I want to look them square in the eye and show them what I think of them" said Tommy
"I'll be with you the whole time"
"No I gotta do this by myself, I hope you understand"
"You know I do. Call me when it's over?"
"You know I will"
"Good luck" she said before kissing him goodbye
"Thanks. See ya" he said with a smile. He got into his car, took a deep breath and drove off.
Kimi stood and waved off her soon to be husband as he drove away "Please don't do anything stupid" she said under her breath
Chuckie placed his hand on his sisters shoulder. She turned her head and smiled at her brother "He'll be fine you know"
"I just don't want him to go to jail for assault or something"
"He's crazy, but he isn't stupid"
"How is he crazy?"
"He puts up with you more than I do"
"Hey!" she said smiling and punching her brother in the stomach
"See what I mean!" he said rubbing his stomach
=================================================================================================
Tommy had arrived nearly an hour ago, but just sat in his car. "Come on" he kept saying "I need to do this lets get out of the car. I can do this, I can do this"
When he eventually got out of the car he took another deep breath and went through the doors.
"Can I help you?" said an receptionist
"Yes. I'm Tommy Pickles. I'm here to see my uncle"
"What is his name?"
"Dave Gorman" (DUN DUN DUN)
"Mr. Gorman is in recovery. Room 27."
"Thanks a lot" he headed towards the lift of the hospital he seems to be spending a lot of time at. When he got out he looked around hoping there were no police. He wanted to see him alone. He found the door and dave was the only one in there lying on his bed watching TV.
"Hey who's there?" he shouted sounding vunerable
"Just another victim" said Tommy
A sedistic smile came across daves face "Oh the target, I didn't think I'd see your face again. Have you come back for more?"
"No I came to see how you are actually"
"Why? What do you care?"
"I don't" said Tommy angrily "I'm here to make sure you can appear in court"
"What for? The shooting or the attack?"
"Haven't decided yet. I may get greedy and go for both"
"Wow I could be in for a year at most"
"More than likely. So how does it feel?"
"Excuse me?"
"How does it feel to be the one in hospital?"
"Strange. I didn't think it would happen."
"Hmm. Can I ask you something?"
"Shoot"
"Very funny. Was I your first?"
"What do you mean?"
"Your first victim. Have you shot anyone before or after me?"
"Why do you wanna know?"
"No reason. I just want to know why. Why people like you exist"
"Well your not the first person I ever shot, but you are the first to live through it"
"Is that why you kept visiting me?"
"I supose I was curious"
"Thanks I guess. How many people?"
"6 or 7 counting you"
"How much money did you get for those 6 people?"
"About $3000"
"Was it worth it?"
"No, but only because I got caught"
"Don't you feel anything? Guilt, sorrow, pleasure, anything?" he was getting angry again
"No not really"
"You disgust me"
"I guessed. Are you finished?"
"Not yet." tommy began to laugh "It's ironic isn't it?"
"What is?"
"If you had killed me you would be dead to?"
"How?"
"I pulled you and your friend out of your car"
"Why?"
"I dunno. There was this nagging feeling. Had to do the right thing you know?" he laughed "No you wouldn't"
"Huh. I supose." The room fell silent "I don't understand you, Tommy was it?"
"Yeah. Why not I'm a simple guy. Dave"
"But why are you here? Are you making sure I'm in pain cause trust me I am"
"I don't trust people who shoot me. Surprisingly. So why the life of crime?"
"I couldn't get a job. No education no nothing why most people do. Why all the questions"
"I guess I'm trying to make you more human than monster."
"So am I more human or monster now?"
"Hard to say. Your still a bastard in my eyes. Yet I can see your reason"
"Don't give me any sympathy. I don't need it"
"I wasn't giving you any"
"So let me guess. You are a 18 year old 4.0 grade average going to college on a football scholarship. Am I right?"
"Yeah I'm the opposite to you"
"Well how do you like that. Maybe it's a fair trade"
"How do you mean?"
"Because I didn't get such a good start and you did. I see it as if I've evened the score."
"Maybe you did. But I'd of prefered it if you shot someone else"
"I probably will"
"Don't you care that you've killed people?"
"No"
"Do you like it?"
"I don't dislike it"
"Your sick"
"I hear that a lot. I'm tired so run off to your little girlfriend and friends"
"Alright see you in court Dave"
"Goodbye Tommy"
Tommy left the room and closed the door. He stood there for a few minutes before making his way back to the lift. When he got there there was a young women about the same age as Tommy standing there. Very atractive
"Hi I'm Gwen"
"Hey I'm Tommy"
"I'm here visiting my dad he's not very well. How about you?"
"I've just been to see the guy who shot me a few weeks ago"
"Oh" said Gwen a bit shocked "I thought I heard that name before, you must of been on the news"
"I wouldn't know I've been in a coma for a while"
"Did it hurt?"
"Not until I woke up I was in shock when it happened"
"Wow. If you don't mind me asking why were you visiting this guy that shot you?"
"I wanted him to know I wasn't scared of him and that I'm taking him to court"
"Wow that's brave. But a bit stupid if you don't mind me saying"
"No thats ok. My girlfriend said the same thing"
"Oh. Why isn't she here with you?"
"She is shit scared. Excuse my language."
"Thats ok. Why she scared?"
"She was nearly raped in here by the guy that shot me" his eyes were getting teary
"That's terrible. It must of been difficult not to of tried to kill him"
"Maybe."
"Well this is my stop. It was nice meeting you Tommy"
"You to Gwen goodbye"
She got off and Tommy pressed the button for the ground floor. He left the hospital, got his cell out and phoned Kimi
"Hey Tommy. How'd it go?" came the reply down the phone
"Ok. I told him I'm pressing charges"
"Great what did he say?"
"He'd be back on the streets in less than a year"
"I hope not"
"Me to"
"How you doing?"
"I'm ok I guess."
"You sure?"
"Yeah I'll be to see you in about 5 ok?"
"Sure see you then babe"
"Bye"
He hung up his phone and put it back into his jacket pocket. He turned round and looked towards the room he'd just been in. He saw something that suprised him. Gwen was in there. 'Could Dave be Gwens father?' He thought to himself. He couldn't think straight anymore so he got into his car and drove away.
=================================================================================================
Admit it you thought he was going to court didn't you? Well whats going to happen now? Can Tommy stand in court against his new friends father? Well you'll have to find out next time
"Are you sure you want to do this hun?" said Kimi
