Ch 13

Back on the hill Tina was still on the ground and hovering over her was Dodger.  He was looking rather ill and he wanted to get this thing over with. He wasn’t sure what to do, but he didn’t want to kill anybody anymore.Tina was looking at him and praying in her heart that he may change his mind and actually let her go unharmed.  She was really worried about Dave now and the woman too, and wondered what had happened to them.  She didn’t want to believe that Dodger has killed them.  She still had hopes that they were alive and that soon she will be reunited with them both.  Tina was thinking of Sania too.  Poor Sania.  I wish she’d told me about her past.  Tina wanted to talk to Dodger and see if she could make him see sense.  She was scared of him but she wanted to know what was going to happen to her.  He couldn’t hold her there forever.  He must have thought about what to do with her.

Tina: Dodger what is the matter with you.  You look really awful and, if you don’t mind me saying, you seem to know an awful lot about Sania?  Are you related to her?  Or do you know anyone who is?

Dodger:  What? Are you out of your fucking mind?  Why should I know?  And don’t presume to know me either.

Tina:  Well I just thought….

Dodger:  Don’t fucking think.  In fact don’t fucking open your mouth bitch?  I don’t want to hear you.  Just be quiet.

Tina lowered her head and stopped talking.  But her heart was burning and she wanted to know what was going on with him.  I am sure he knows something, I bet my life on it.

Dodger:  Now what I want to know is, if that bitch is going to call the police or not?  Are you sure you could trust her to listen to you? 

Tina:  Listen Dodger I told you I am not going to tell the police if you let me go, but I am not sure that Sania will not, it depends on her mood, because she is known to have a wild temper if she gets angry.  So I think it is best for you if you leave now.
