Agnes looked up the details Tom sent her of her target, Oscar Helmsley was a 6'3 man of medium build. He had baby blue eyes and black hair that looked like it belonged on a magazine cover and his sharp jaw line made it hard for Agnes not to drool. He had a big tattoo of a spider at the back of his neck, so he was easy to spot in a crowd.
Agnes headed out with her gun hidden in her trench coat and she headed out to where her target was supposed to appear. Sure enough she spotted him easily and followed him to the underside of the bridge where he was headed. She came in the opposite direction and as soon as they met each other under the bridge, she fired a shot to his head, killing him instantly. Agnes quickly rushed out from below the bridge and headed back to her apartment.
Immediately she entered the apartment Agnes plunged down on the couch and sighed. She took her phone and looked up the time. It was 5'Oclock in the evening, the time Danny was supposed to be heading back to the place he stayed. She changed her clothes to a top and some trousers, put on her sandals, took her car keys and headed out. She drove to where Danny was staying and as she passed an alley she heard a gunshot and saw a figure running away.
Agnes quickly stopped the car and got out. She rushed to the small figure lying on the ground and saw it was Danny. She quickly carried him and the gun and bag beside him into her car and drove back to her apartment.
Agnes sat on a swivel chair and watched Danny as she slept. she wondered whether it was the right thing to do bringing him here but decided it was a matter for another day. As she was pondering Danny woke up and yawned, stretching out one hand while rubbing his eyes with the other until he realized Agnes was staring at him. He blurted out.
"Who are you?"
Agnes replied, "You don't need to know" as she got up and went into the kitchen.
"I do need to know why I am in a strange woman's house". He replied as he followed her into the kitchen.
"Strange woman-" she chuckled "-I've never been called that before " as she proceeded to make a plate of food for Danny.
"Well, there's a first time for everything " Danny replied.
"hmm, you're sassy" she placed a plate of pancakes and eggs in front of him. "Eat up"
He looked at the plate suspiciously and looked up when Agnes nudged the plate towards him.
Danny grabbed the fork Agnes placed in font of him and started wolfing down the pancakes.
"Hey, calm down, the food isn't running away"
He ignored her and proceeded to shove the food down his throat and in no time he had scraped every atom of food from the plate. Agnes took the plate and placed it in the dishwasher, she then placed a cup of orange juice in front of him which he downed.
She took a napkin to wipe the crumbs of the side of his mouth when he flinched back as if she wanted to hit him. Agnes pretended not to notice and proceeded to wipe the crumbs off. When she was done, she led him to a spare room in her apartment. It was a large room with the huge floor to ceiling windows covered in drapes and a Queen-sized bed. The walls were painted painted a dark green while the ceilings, a light blue with white clouds. Overall the room gave off a forest vibe which Agnes loved.
Danny rushed to jump on the bed then suddenly stopped and looked at Agnes as if asking for approval. She gave him the go ahead and he jumped on the bed giggling and laughing happily. Agnes looked at how happy he looked and wondered if he would have been this happy all the time if he hadn't killed his father. She quickly shook that dark thought from her head and proceeded to the ensuite bathroom to run the bath.
The bathroom was a full bath consisting of a white ceramic toilet, shell-shaped ceramic sink with a large mirror and a huge bath. Agnes sat down on the corner of the bathtub and turned on the hot water tap and added a lemon scenting bath bomb. She called Danny who was still playing to come and have his bath while she left to find a suitable pair clothes for him. When she came back was out of the bath and seated on the bed wrapped in a huge fluffy towel that was hung on the bathroom door.
She placed the change of clothes on the bed beside him and said
"I'll leave you to change"
"Wait!" Danny called out and Agnes stopped to look back
"Do you need anything?" she asked
"Why are you so nice to me"
"Because you remind me of someone, Now change and go to sleep"
Danny wanted to retort but he was already tired so he just nodded his head and Agnes left. After a while she came to check on Danny, so she peeked through open door and saw him fast asleep snoring softly.
She smiled unconsciously and went to her room to get some sleep of her own.
