A Means To An End 6
It’s such a tired game
Will it ever stop?
How will this all play out?
Out of sight, out of mind….
Ch 11
“So what’s so important?”
Carmen.
My love.
My life.
The thing that keeps me alive. And I call her a thing because these feelings I have for her are beyond anything resembling normal. What I have to say to her is so incredible so incredibly my fault: it’s not even the old Carmen’s fault, it’s mine and it’s not funny anymore. A past come back from a love …..from a love long ago and dead. Might as well knuckle up and tell her.
She is gonna be so pissed at me.
“Hey…uh ok. So ….when I got back from my tests I….I got a call…yeah. I got a call from the kidnapper…”
“Oh my god…..is he…ok? Is our baby ok…Shane oh my god we gotta tell Tina and Spender….”
“Armstrong………….. he just looks like Spender….”
‘Shane we ….’
“No!”
“Shane?”
“Look we can’t trust The Feds anymore….”
“Shane what are you talking about?”
“They froze our assets…they think we did something to Marco and that we aren’t being honest….”
“Shane look at me….what else….there is something you aren’t telling me….what did the kidnapper say?”
“He told me his name…..he told me how we can try to find him. He wants to kill me; he wants revenge for his loss.”
“What?”
“His name is Conrad….”
“Conrad? What kind of kidnapper is named Conrad?”
“…………….’
“Conrad…..what?”
“Conrad Voynow….is um a ….I know who he is…”
“You know the man who took our baby?’
“We never met…..um….I was sleeping with his wife….back before I knew you…..”
Carmen has a look that is hard to read. Somewhere between anger and fear. She is afraid of the answer. The cursing and yelling I was expecting….they weren’t here. instead she takes my hand in hers. She is trying to reassure me. trying to tell me with smooth physical contact that it’s not my fault. She looks me in the eye. Kisses my hand. I can’t look at her. it’s my fault.
