The boy had been wearing jeans and a hoodie. He was thin and frail and was the same guy who had threatened Jake long ago at the school cafeteria. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.
"Have you done it?"
Jake grimaced a little and replied, "Why are we having the same conversation again today?"
The boy blew out smoke as he replied, "Because, you left it incomplete yesterday."
Jake neared him and looked him in the eye, "I have been doing a whole lot of things other than you who only has been threatening me and doing a very poor job of it."
"Sure"
The boy blew another ring of smoke and spoke, "The last time we spoke you pretty much said the same thing."
Jake rubbed his temples and began to turn away; he wasn't going to waste his time yet again.
He had taken a few steps when the boy put out the cigarette and said in a desperate tone, "I...need your help."
Jake stopped at that and looked around.
"Come again?"
