Four days but no word from Jimmy led Penelope walking to his house.

When she saw him, she was devastated. He looked like a madman; his hair was scattered and he looked dull. She never knew he could look like that.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDUzKWyqpb
When he raised up his head to look at her, he lolled his head.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuouD6QlNz
“Jimmy!” It was more than a scream. She ran to him and grabbed his face.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMT27cU2Pez
“What the hell happened to you,Jimmy,” She panicked.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0VU69eZbR
He released her grip on him and stared.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpsZM6GxPs
“Now get up and put on some clothes,” She instructed.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfbA6lWRZQ
“Are you my girlfriend,” he asked.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡga433SpN9F
“Just do as I say okay.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7eg4TLuI6
Soon Jimmy was dressed with his hair tousled and they went to a restaurant. She ordered snacks and juices for them.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKALeteZF5c
“Why did you return?” Jimmy asked. “Why don’t you guys just quit?”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmk0mzLu3xD
“Mr Vlad has been sacked since last year October and Mr Roy
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKe0DthI3V
is now Chief,” Penelope started. “He has been a good boss. Very reliable.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19bO70KfcX
“Why are you telling me all this now?” Jimmy asked.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhwkXAsFaC
“Look Jimmy we need you even though you don’t know,” Abigail pointed out.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdWSPTztdX
“Well I don’t need you guys,” Jimmy repiled stiffly, looking away.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIa0hj1zIHy
“So are you gonna ignore me again, after depriving me of the due care because of what happened?” She asked. “Tell me Jimmy. Tell me.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44jn1Lnc0N
He didn’t answer. He had long stop blaming her in his heart but he felt guilty.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWifDvvABE
“Fine. If you can’t do it for me, do it for Abigail. Who knows, you could find out the culprit and the real truth.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7BkfyOpVH
Jimmy turned to her swiftly and she grinned.

Mr Roy sat expectantly formimg a steeple on his desk and leaning forward muttering prayers when the two people he expected walked in. he sprang up and cried. “ I am so disappointed you eventually decided to come “
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRIU0F4mjo
Jimmy raised an eyebrow. “ I.E?”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoanO6c2s5
“ Ironic Expression.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZv853yANY
Penelope laughed.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJFz8Mewan
“ You have not changed a bit, Mr Roy. You still use your intials for that?”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKn12ubtWg
“ You have not changed either,” Mr Roy answered. “ You still have your heaet. I feared you wouldn’t come!”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3y2VHE08yH
Jimmy glanced at Abigail. “Well, you sent the right someone and that someone got my weakness straight on point.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabpbTppdvt
Abigail smiled and Mr Roy gave her a thumps up.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvMhzktAOq
“Now I’m here. So what’s the deal?”

The five of them sat round the table; Mr Roy, Penelope, Jimmy, Neil and the ever arrogant but smart Batton.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMCVMRD2KW
“We are glad to have you back here Jimmy. We can’t hide out joy,” Mr Roy started.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGrIpFIsYi
“Well I don’t think it’s everyone,” Jimmy said, glancing at Batton. “But don’t worry, this is the last mission. I repeat Mr Roy, the very last.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1xgn1wKMu
Batton scoffed and shrugged. “I don’t care.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7G2L260ZF
But he did. When Jimmy was still at work, they were both competing for the best. Jimmy was always far ahead and that was what spoiled their relationship. Earlier they had been friends. In fact, Batton was the one who talked Jimmy in to be part of the SF and now he regretted. Just when he thought he had no competitor anymore, Jimmy came strolling in and receiving praises. Ill-made relationship they say, was hard to cut off.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgxlZZwCAo
“No scuffles now please,” Penelope intervened and turned to Mr Roy. “Please begin.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oALpdAD6r
“So what’s the SF gotten so far?” Jimmy asked, deliberately taunting Batton. “It can’t be nothing since we have a smartie here.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhHucQz5na
“Of course it isn’t nothing. May I do the honour of saying the information?” Batton looked at Mr Roy direction.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TCaOxqM1F
“Sure,” Mr Roy repiled.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0Hr24FLkA
Batton turned to Jimmy with a grin.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaL79L6rYEd
“Without your help, the SF found out that there is going to be a party at the leading hotel ballroom in two days and there will be an exchange of USB where a vital information we must get our hands on is,” Batton started proudly. “We also found the safe where the USB will likely be kept that night. So I don’t see any reason you were invited back.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5JsapPzJ9
Jimmy returned the grin.”Well it must be something important that you are so useless to do. How about that?”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjScGNod5H
Batton flushed angrily but kept his calm.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2uOH9LUQO
“That is where you will come in Jimmy. So far your record have never been beaten,” Mr Roy said. “You are all attending and participating in the mission but we need you to do the most dangerous part. Getting to the safe.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdixwOhWGk
Jimmy chuckled. “So you brought me in to pass a death sentence to me?”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XKwUHXMUB
“We are all under a death sentence passed unto us by God but we don’t just know the day of execution,” Neil said.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbS2KJrMOY
Jimmy turned to him. “So you are acting the pastor now?”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZQCpGwaCl
Neil shrugged.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgstm8ctH1
“You know something Neil, I will use your words against you someday,” Jimmy said and turned to Mr Roy. “So who’s the receiver?”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTWxroVlmN
Mr Roy turned to Penelope.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡER89tmZl7x
“He is Mr Lewis, a multi-billionaire. An old money, his family is into glass,” She explained. “Our latest conclusion is that he is only a mere sponsor of the upcoming massacre and that is because he will make a profit from it.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bNktJJe5m
Mr Roy completed the explanation. “So we need five people for this job; the thief, the pickpocket, the seducer and two guards.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtLlSeQuk9
“How about we do it this way? I will be the thief, Penelope will be the seducer, and Neil along with Batton will be the guards,” Jimmy suggested. “As for the pickpocket, I have someone in mind.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdXRAClkkm
The car pulled in front of an old cottage. “Remain in the car,” Jimmy instructed and got down. He walked to the door and knocked on it softly. In some seconds, the door opened and someone stood in the doorway.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzp0vk9U4U
“Hey Robin. It’s been a while,” Jimmy said.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDw6TrIxLpL
“Hey my pal Jimmy,” the person repiled. “Come on in.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZ5GPfyHLy
Jimmy walked inside. He sat while Robin prepared coffee for them.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkyY7H1abN
“Here,” Robin said giving Jimmy a cup.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dfA1eUkmB
Jimmy accepted it. “Thanks.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNpi9LYi3N
Robin sat. “So what brings you here jimmy? Or should I say what favour do you want to ask for?”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡES5qQjtIPP
Jimmy grinned. “Well since you know, I will go straight to the point. I do need a favour.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsg00gFZCO
“I knew it! You seldom stop by for any other purpose. So what’s it?”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQlFYyXvLg
“I have a mission from the SF,” Jimmy started.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUStz8KXtwy
Robin lifted an eyebrow. “You back there?”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMeCJduJe9
Jimmy nodded. “I am on a last mission. I need you to be the pickpocket.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLsoDksltj
Robin friendly look faded away. “I am done with that part of my life.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5OTKo5DSi
“Please Robin. Take this as the last favour.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1bNjNfh7y
There was a moment of hesitation. “It won’t be the last favour but you own me one.”
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVR1NTkWVvD
Jimmy grinned.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrT2yCBbBC
“He agreed,” Jimmy announced when he got back into the car.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkY3BmNOJMs
“Jimmy, you are doing the most dangerous of the mission. Stay safe,”Penelope said with concern.
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtRuxJLgIu
“If I don’t survive, remember you are the one who made me do this,” Jimmy repiled sending a wave of fear mixed with shock to Penelope. Then he added, "Don’t worry,I’ll be fine.”
