Wild West - Part 18
“He can take your kid. But then again, we can just ask to bring him with us. You’re right, we’ve got the perfect leverage. And if the dome collapses when Fishnick dies, we’re dead anyway, so why not try and make the most of all this? Cheers!” James and Tom clanked their glasses together and emptied the insides. “You know this means we’re done with the way we lived up until now, right? After this one last job we’ll ride into the sunset like father and son, like we were meant to from the very beginning.”
“Don’t get all sentimental on me, dad,” Tom emphasized the word dad and a smile showed up on his face. “But yeah, one final job. What will we do then, though? I don’t know much besides killing.”
“I believe you’ve had a good look at my property out here in the middle of nowhere. I grow my own crops. I make my own tools. I was like you when I was your age, but then decided I wanted to be able to take of my own self. If there’s no other people and no other jobs there, we’re going to build a little house much like this one for each of us. You okay with that?”
“I’ll take that over being dead any day.”
They both laughed.
Outside, though, the sun was setting, and their time laughing was coming to an end.
"Sunset"
