A Useless Day Before Lunch
STUPID 11:14am
Just because you come across a house with door slung wide open doesn’t mean you have to stick your head inside, see that no one is there and grab the wallet and car keys which are stupid enough to be hanging off a key chain bearing the emblem of the car you are about to get into and turn the key in the ignition to hear the engine start and you even rev it a few times before remembering Christ you are out the front of the house but pull away casually anyway, looking back a few times to a dead street or just that kid in the front yard kicking a ball or doll. It’s when things like this happen you get that feeling deep inside like shit something is going to happen to me and then quickly why would it? None of that karma stuff exists but then again that old feeling of this isn’t going to be karma its going to be you can’t just steal someone’s stuff and just walk/drive around spending the money in the wallet which is only thirty dollars on beer and a few bags of peanuts. Back in the car, still petrol in the thing not going anywhere really so of course you end up at a house you know and take in the beer and nuts and just sit in that house for a while drinking beer from the fridge and smoking their cigarettes and eating peanuts and laughing at the TV or watching sport until an hour or so goes by. Ah fuck it I end up saying and take the last six pack out of the fridge and say see ya later and get back in the car because what else right…is it even reported stolen yet? Probably. Better get this thing somewhere where I can walk home from.
KILLER 10:24am

Ok so he’s got a whole bunch of shit about to hit him and his junkie girlfriend or whatever the fuck she is and yep in like 10 minutes oh fuck it three or as soon as this cigarette is done. Ok so ok go up there, kick the door in and shoot the fucks, no problem. Ah fuck this cigarette I’m gong up there. Got some toys on the grass, trucks and balls, they got a son or what? Letters all over the front step, they don’t care about shit these two losers. Anyway shut the fuck up.

Another cigarette in my mouth what, the other one fucking smoking on the dashboard ha yeah right that’s right toss it out the window, smooth, smooth.

BUYER 11:29am
Weird she’s got her door open with that kid and all that gear in there. Maybe its like a thing like, cops or some shit is going down. Pffft, yeah right…too many movies Rick! Seriously, no way any cop’ll think this is a dealer’s house. Looks like a messed up family home, sure, but to think this chick deals coke out of here is crazy…fucking toy trucks and shit. They should get a cat or something. Hello!? Sarah! You home? Whoops probably shouldn’t yell out…Heeee-eey? Anyone home? The kid is bawling its head off, again, god how annoying would that be? Yo Sarah! Ok this is weird, where the fuck is she? Fuck it I’m going inside. So what do I just sit here on the lounge or what? Weird, why the hell would she read a fishing magazine? Who’s is this? Fuck that’s a huge swordfish, Christ imagine catching that. That would be cool. Ha what stupid fish would fall for those lures! Yeah right like real fish are all fluoro with like ten hooks coming off them. So if fish are so blind why even bother fashioning lures into fish shapes…may as well be a lump of plastic covered in hooks. Ah whatever, how stupid. Hey Sarah you home?! Annoying, she said an hour. I’m like ten minutes late, like she knows what time it is, ha! I better check on the kid I guess poor bastard. Wait what the fuck is that, some dude’s legs? What the fuck is that about? Ummmmm, ok…Sarah! Hee-eeey you home?! Want me to come back?! Seriously what the fuck’s up with that dude. Oh Christ oh fuck what the fuck shit Jesus…..mother fucking HELL!
POLICE 11:56am
23 Harland Road, two dead, both shot multiple times to torso and head, cocaine found on crime scene, door broken in, no signs of struggle, single small child left in bedroom undisturbed, called in by Rick Tindale, local resident. Ummm ok so what the fuck happened huh? Yeah well…looks like some kinda drug hit to me Harry. Drug hit? What the fuck is this TV? Looks like a couple of idiots got killed that’s what it looks like. Fuck this hit business. Well look at this shit, no one’s touched all that coke, I mean, there’s at least twenty or thirty grams there. Big deal. Some fucker just tagged along, shot them two, took the money and fucked off. This was just a little deal that some idiot wanted the money for. We’ll find them. And what are we looking for. Well, probably someone that this Rick knows, right? Yeah right well, we may as well start there. Plus…where the fuck are the cars? So no one here drives right? Someone’s out there driving one of these people’s cars, ok, so, get on that ok?
