Chapter 15 by Trom1806 Trom1806

You sleep long enough when suddenly you wake up...

You wake up from the fact that you hear soft sounds coming from Marvin's direction.

You timidly look in his direction and you see that Marvin continues to confidently drive the car. It can be seen that Marvin is an experienced driver, the car quickly travels along the highway in a westerly direction. You understand that you apparently slept long enough, since judging by the view outside the car window, dawn has recently occurred (which means you slept for about seven hours).

You notice that Marvin's smartphone is on the glove compartment of the car and that this smartphone is turned on. From the muffled sounds, Marvin is listening to the local news broadcast on his smartphone.

You listen to these sounds coming from Marvin's smartphone. You hear separate phrases: "State Police have carried out ... **** trafficking for hundreds of millions of dollars ... dozens of members of the most dangerous organized crime group have been arrested ... the remaining bandits have been put on the wanted list..."

You feel a spiritual thrill and you understand that this report most likely concerns the very events that **** you to flee for your life. When you heard the last phrase, you try to look into the screen of Marvin's smartphone. You see that the reporter shows photos of wanted members of Joe's gang. In the series of these menacing faces you see your own face. You can hardly contain the cry of despair. Your entire consciousness is now permeated with fear and hopelessness.

You think: "God ... I was put on the wanted list as a criminal ... Apparently one of the arrested Joe gangsters began to testify against me ... Now I will be searched not only by the remaining gangsters, but also the police will hunt for me ..."

You notice that, fortunately for you, Marvin is not listening to this report very carefully and that Marvin is only looking at the road (which means he did not see your photo that the reporter showed).

With great difficulty, you try to contain your own fear and not show Marvin your panic state of mind.

You and Marvin spend another hour in silence as your journey continues. Then the following happens:

Marvin turns to you and with a smile says to you: “Did you get enough sleep, dear Mary? Soon we will arrive in this Arizona town of Trenburg that I told you about! New Mexico. So, Mary, get ready to pay me for this trip. If you prefer to pay with money, then prepare a hundred dollars.

You are frantically thinking about what to do: "A whole hundred dollars!? I don't even have fifty dollars now!... What a nightmare!... What should I do!? ..."

You timidly mumble: "Dear Sir Marvin ... maybe you will agree ... to accept payment for me ... in a different form ... not in cash ..."

Marvin smirks and tells you, "Of course, sweet Mary! I think you know what you need to do now!"

You look up at Marvin with fear. You are trying to understand what he meant.

More fun
