Chapter Fourteen

After Bible Study I am on an emotional high. I feel like for the first time in a long time I have made a connection with the people. I don’t get the dirty feeling I get when I work behind the scenes. Tonight I feel like a real minister of the Gospel. I celebrate tonight by picking up some Chinese takeout and going back to my hotel room.

I have a pack of cigarettes that I have not opened yet. I even have a bottle of Crown Royal that has not been touched in the last few days. I decide to wet my taste buds with a lime-flavored soda that I bought along with the Chinese food. I am halfway through my sweet and sour chicken when the phone rings. I think it is Spider, who I am going to meet up with later, but lo and behold it is Sister Deborah.

I have given her the cell phone number to my disposable phone. Hardly anyone has my real phone number, outside of my clients, my few friends, and closest family members. When I am done with a job I want every piece of evidence that I was in town to be able to fit in a trash bag, and a cell phone is one of them.

It is 11:47 P.M. Something tells me that Sister Deborah is not calling for prayer.

“Hello, Sister Deborah. How are you?”

“Terrible. I made too much red velvet cake and I have no one to share it with. I was thinking that I could drop it off to you at your hotel?”

Something tells me that she is offering more than just a piece of cake. “That’s really thoughtful, Sister Deborah, but my hotel room is a mess.”

For one, I don’t let anyone except for my client know where I stay. For two, I need to get to Sister Deborah’s apartment to see if there is evidence of an affair between her and First Gentleman Tony Robinson. I also need to see if Tony has been by her house recently.

“Well, you can come over if you like.”

“Well, I wouldn’t want to inconvenience you,” I say.

“The pleasure would be all mines.”

Too easy. “Okay, I’ll see you in a bit.”
