I got to the balcony door and I opened it slowly. I felt the cold wind of the night brush against my skin. The cold didn't bother me though. I took a step towards the man, the stench of cigarette smoke ran up my nose. It was a nice smell. It reminded me of my childhood, the long road trips with my father where he always had a cigarette between his lips. The loud car radio turned up so loud that we could barely hear our own singing over the music. Those were the times that never seemed to end. Yet here I am. A knife hidden on me. A few kills under my belt.
I walk towards the barrier of glass at the end of the balcony. I stand next to the man. He spoke to me in a low voice. His voice ran through my head like my favorite sound.
"Hello." He says. "what bring you here at this time?" The man looks down at his watch. The gold and silver glistened as the watch face shined in the light.
"Just a drink to top off a Friday afternoon" I say as I gaze across the city. The bright lights catch my eye as my view focuses on a building far away.
My mind races, I am indecisive on whether I should kill him or not.
