A quater of a million

Relief flooded me followed by a million different questions

“Oh” I huffed

“Yea…”

“Do you know any names?” I asked.

“Ummm…sure…theres Smithy, Mr John and a few others…I’m sure they’ll find you”

“And how much money are we talking here???”

Silence

“Do you really want to know??”

“Well, if I knew i could help you…but…”

“Fine…but you asked”

I waited for him to spit it out

“Ummm…well its a large amout”

“Spit it out” I snapped

“Its about quater of a million dollars all up…”

Silence…
