Chapter 44

Omar had walked all the way from the mansion to a gas station. He went inside the store and began to look for gasoline canisters. He took two of them and purchased them at the counter.

"I also like to fill them up," he said to the clerk.

"Okay," the clerk replied and added up the total, "Which pump?" he asked.

"Number 3," Omar answered and adds, "Put in 40 for the gas."

The clerk added more on the total and it came up 75.49. Omar was irritated by it, but he handed over four 20 dollar bills and was given change.

He went to the gas pump and began to fill up the canisters. He made sure that both of them were all the way full.

When the pump stopped, Omar noticed that the second canister was half-way full and he was quite irritated by that.

Instead of confronting the clerk, Omar decided to take whatever gasoline he had and headed toward a dark alley.

A group of dog men were chattering among themselves and Omar approached them.

"Do you have some dope?" he asked and the ringleader looked at him.

"How much do you have?" he replied and Omar pulled out the remaining bills and change.

The ringleader took them and had one of his buddies count them. "4.51," he said.

The leader gave a sneer, "Come back when you have more," he said to Omar.

"That's all I have," Omar replied. The ringleader looked at the canisters.

"What do you have in there?" he asked, again.

"I need it," Omar replied, his anger was rising.

"Well you can get a high from that," the ringleader said and turned away.

Omar grabbed him by the front of the ringleader's shirt, "I need some dope!" he shouted.

The others were ready to pounce on him, but then, Omar held up the gun and they backed off.

"What the fuck man?" one of the dog men asked.

"Give me some dope or I'll shoot your goddamn heads off!" Omar ordered.

The ringleader looked at one of his henchmen and nods at him. The dog man dug into his pockets and gave Omar a few bags of a white substance.

He took the bags and put them in his pocket. He then took the canisters and left.

Omar went into a public restroom and sniffed up a bag. The buzz came back, but Omar's vision was going crazy and his legs were shaking.

"Don't even think about passing out!" he yelled at himself.

The sun was rising and Omar wobbled out of the restroom and he headed back to Mok's mansion.
