The Present - Klempner
“Out you come. You have visitors.”
Visitors?
Who the fuck’s going to visit me?
Some noseying lawyer I suppose….
The floor guard, Hartland, jerks his head at my door. Not that it doesn’t make a change to get out of the cell, but the insolent bastard gets on my nerves and makes a point of trying to do it.
“Come on, Larry. Step lively now.” He pokes a baton into the small of my back, jabbing harder than necessary to move me along.
Larry?
Little shite….
…. I'll make you eat your own liver for that one day….
“In you go, Larry.” Hartland juts his chin at the guard inside. “They’ve got half an hour with him if they want to use it all. See that Larry here behaves himself. Still thinks he’s someone does this one.”
“Yes, Mr Hartland.”
I don’t know the guard, but he is polite enough as he indicates the seat by the screen.
But as I look up and see my ‘visitors’, I hover, hesitating.
It’s her….
And one of the men….
…. Summerford….
What the hell are they doing here?
She sits on the other side of the glass screen. He leans against the back wall, arms folded, eyes flat. A couple of guards loiter, one to either side of the screen.
As I sit, her eyes follow me. Nothing else about her moves.
I flick my gaze to Blondie. “That’d be Michael then? Where’s the other one? James is it?”
Blondie shifts but doesn’t speak.
He looks dangerous….
And has proved that he is….
…. The muscle in their arrangement?
Her reply is curt. “Yes, this is Michael. And James isn’t here, because he’s recovering from when your friend Corby shot him.”
?
Shot him?
What else haven’t they told me?
Her eyes narrow, her head tilting. “You didn’t know about that?”
I don’t want to appear unsettled, try to be dismissive. “No, they’d not told me that.”
Ah…. Crap….
I’ve got to know….
“…. What’s his condition?”
“He’ll live, but it was touch and go for a while.”
“And Corby?”
“Dead. The police took him down.”
Suppose he was bound to get himself killed sooner or later.
Always was a charmless bastard….
“And why are you here…?”
Little ginger bitch….
“…. For that matter, why am I here?”
She licks her lips, scratching at a thumbnail with another thumbnail. “Will you talk to me?”
Talk to you?
Who let you in here little girl, just to talk?
You have powerful friends….
Got Haswell dancing your tune….
…. And he knows the Mayor, the Chief of Police….
I sit back, shrug, trying not to wince as I move my barely healed arms. “I don’t know. It depends what you want to ask. I don’t have a lot of incentive to co-operate, do I? They’re going to lock me up and throw away the key. And you’ll be testifying against me.”
What do you want, Jennifer?
Blondie snorts, coming up to her from behind. His arm on her shoulder. “You want to go? You’re going to get nothing from this one.”
She brushes him away. “No, not yet.”
That gesture, that dismissive let-me-be shrug suddenly bites, familiar and bitter.
Mitch’s daughter….
“So, how does it work then?” I ask, tossing my head at Blondie behind her.
She frowns. “How does what work?”
And suddenly I want to know….
How did you do it?
“You, with two of them? How does that work? Two men with one woman….” For a moment her mouth drops open, but I keep going….
You want to talk…. Talk….
“…. Okay, regardless of what I said when we met before, I know you’re not a whore. So, how does it work?”
She’s digging fingernails into her palm and her eyes lift to mine then slip away. “I don’t see that’s got anything to do with you.”
Come on Mitch’s Daughter…. Talk….
“Oh, you might be surprised…. You going to answer my question?”
Her eyes return to mine, hard as agates. “No, because I don’t see that it’s any of your business….”
Fuck you then….
“…. What’s your grudge against me?” she says. “You said it was because of Jenkins, but I don’t believe you. There’s more to it than that. It’s not really me at all, is it? It’s to do with my mother and father?”
“You’re going to testify against me. That hardly fills me with warmth.”
“I don’t believe that either. If that was it, you would simply have had me murdered. You wouldn’t have gone to all the trouble you have, to capture me, hurt me, make my life miserable….”
I chew a thumbnail. “Alright, Jennifer…”
“It’s Charlotte….”
“Alright, Charlotte. Quid pro quo. I’ll talk to you if you talk to me.”
