Julian couldn’t believe what he was hearing. For weeks, he wondered if putting a hit out on Curtis and Shelia without Renee’s knowledge was smart on his part. He was sure killing them would free Renee of her demons, but he wondered if he was wrong for hiding it from her. Now that Renee sat across from him with her arms planted on the bedroom table and her eyes staring into his, telling him that she had decided to put a hit out on them herself, he knew he made the right decision.

“Is this what you want? Do you truly believe you can live with yourself after the fact?” Julian waited for an answer, hoping she had thought everything through.

“It has to be done. After all these years, as embarrassed as I am to admit it, I finally figured out what I have to do. The only way I can get over my past, is to let it go, literally.” Renee stared in his eyes. She was lost, but was hoping to find herself when it was all said and done.

“I’m a miserable woman, Julian. In order to deal with pain, I inflict it on others by pushing coke, and murdering who ever stands in my way. I ruin lives and will probably go down in history as New York’s most notorious drug dealer,” she smirked. “Yet I can’t even show my face nor let my government name ring through the streets because I’m too busy hiding from my past. I’m tired of hiding, I want to live normal and be happy. When people think of me, I want to be associated with something positive, not this.” Renee looked around at her expensive surroundings.

Julian knew she was referring to her queen-pin lifestyle. She looked at him and a lone tear ran down her cheek. “And when you look at me, I don’t want you to see the monster that killed our baby.”

Chills ran through Julian. Was this a dream? If so, he didn’t want to wake up. He wanted to see it through and know how it would end.

“I want to be happy Julian, like when my father was alive and I first met you.” Julian didn’t know if the words she spoke took his breath away, or the fact that she was staring him in the eyes while saying it. He swallowed, trying to remove the knot in his throat that was blocking his breathing passage. Julian didn’t know how to react. Renee had never been so calm, so… human.

“You made my life bearable, you made it a lot easier to live, and gave me something that I haven’t had since my father died, love. And let’s not forget your mother was more of a mother to me than my own, may God rest her soul.”

Renee’s eyes fell down on the table and she played with a soda top, pretending it was a dreidel. She spun it and spun it until it fell off the table and both her and Julian’s eyes followed it.
