CHAPTER 5:
Seto had finished talking with Richard. All was set. During the next seven months, Yami would have to work for the review, only his firm was missing. When Seto was going to call him, he appeared in front of the door looking for him.
-Well, well, what connexion!!! I was going to call you right in this moment! - said Seto motioning Yami to enter.
-Look Set, I have to go, Joey called me and he said it was important.
-You can't go now, we have to finish this.
-I thought you have already finished it.
-Yeah… but you have to firm yet.
Yami looked to Seto then to Richard and finally to the paper on the desk.
-Where is the pen?
Seto took his pen and handle it to him. Yami took it, went to the desk and signed his name in the four pages of the contract. Seto just smiled.
-Ok. I have signed, can I go now? – asked Yami hurriedly
-Alright, alright, go, but not in my limousine.
-Don't worry; I didn't even think in take it.
-Yami – said Richard
-Yes, sir – he said turning around
-I need you here by the morning, ok?
-Ok, bye – he said while running through the door and into the exit.
-What bug had bitten him? – asked Seto aloud
-I don't know but it seems important
-Humph –exclaimed Seto.
In the south part of Egypt, two cloaked figures were talking about some important businesses that were carrying out.
-We have only found three of the six items. We need more money and time.
-We have to talk to our boss.
-I know he would be furious with this. So much money expended and only we found three in all this years.
-He has to know that this work is not easy, and so, you have to call him.
-Me? Why me?
-Because the last time I was who called him. Talk you for once in a while.
-Ok.
Ring
-Hello
-Hi, boss, how are you?
-What do you want?
-I… eh… is just that I wanted to tell you something
-Speak.
-Eh… the matter is that we have found another item.
-Excellent. We have three now. Keep working
-Exactly. Work. But we need more… money.
-What!! Again?? Is not enough with the money I send to you all the months?? If that is what you spend and only found three I don't want to imagine how much will cost me the other three items!!
-Yeah, sir but all is increasing. And without money we can't do anything.
--Sigh- Then I will have to do something, soon I will send you the money, but I want results. Is that clear?
-Yes, sir, as you said.- the person hung up the phone
-What did he said?
-He would send us money.
-What a relief. He didn't snarl you?
-What do you think?
Yami took a taxi in the front gate of the review and went to Coffee Place. He arrived and entered in the building looking for a sign of Duke. He spotted him in a table of the far end. Duke saw him and stood up to greet him.
-Hi my friend –said Duke while hugging him
-Hi, Duke, how are you?
-Not so well like you – said Duke laughing
-Ja-ja-ja, that was so funny.
They took a sit.
-Yeah, well let's get in the matter.
-Ok, I'm all ears.
-Look, I want to talk about the finances.
-Welcome, sir. Did you want something? – interrupted the waitress
-A glass of water is fine.
-Ok.
In minutes the waitress came back with the order.
-As I was saying – said Duke returning to where he was cut – there is something rare about the counts.
-How is 'rare'?
-The money has been decreasing the last eight years. Look to this papers.
Duke handle him the papers he had taking out of the house. Yami took it and examine it sheet by sheet. More he went through it; he was realizing the same Duke had discovered.
-The money has been decreasing a lot, and mostly my money, in about a fifty percent! I can't believe this – said Yami with a bewildered look in his face
-Yes, it was the exact thing I thought when I discover this.
-Do you have any ideas of who could possible had do this? – asked Yami without stop looking the numbers.
-Not at all – said Duke while looking through the window
Yami raised his eyes and looked to him intently. He could detect something.
-Why do you have put dark glasses on? – asked Yami suspecting something.
-Why do you ask me that?
-Why don't you just take it off? It's not sunny.
- For what. I liked it.
-You're hiding something from me. Tell me what is or I will discover it by myself.
-It's nothing.
-Duke…
-Ok, Fine
Duke took off his glasses showing his dark green eyes.
-Are you happy now? – said Duke staring at him just for a brief minute.
-I… knew it. You are not able of telling me your suspects because you hope that I would have an answer to this mess. Besides you don't know how I'm going to react.
-I hate when you do that.
And – continue Yami - your suspects are on Seto.
