GANGSTER

I’ve been a Gangster for a while, said Tyson as he picked up his revolver and put it in his hostler and turned to face Pastor Zack Rings, from the local parish. Pastor Zack is behind Tyson for a while, when asked for the reason; he explained he had a vision from Tyson’s late mother to get her son leave all his unrighteous way of living and devote himself to a woman and a family and God ultimately so that Tyson gets to heaven. Zack has been trying to convince Tyson of the danger of the cruel death that can happen to a gangster but Tyson retreated saying he’s been a gangster for a while and can take care for himself. Tyson understood the Pastor was not convinced and so took him for a coffee in a nearby café, instead of taking the car, he chose to walk, and indeed he knew his adversaries were awaiting a chance to slay him. He walked, as he listened to the pastor with his hand gripping the butt of his revolver. As they turned the corner, Tyson pulled pastor out of the way, pulled out his revolver a fired two shots; three seconds later, two men fell from a large tree, shot on point blank. Giving the pastor a smirk, he continued walking to the café as the pastor followed behind. When they finally arrived at the place, they settled down at a corner table and waited for the little boy to show up with their orders,

“It’s too late pastor, I can’t just come out of this life and start fresh. Wherever I go, however I change, my past and my works will come back to me, it is called karma. If I make a family, they too will be affected by my former acts of unrighteousness.”

“God will help you son, he’ll make sure you have a good life without any disturbances from the past,” the pastor replied and said.

“If GOD wanted to really help, you should’ve come 10 years ago and not 10 weeks ago; you’re late pastor, you are really late……” “…..let me tell you this also pastor, this will be our first and last cup of coffee, do not disturb me hereafter, you did see for yourself how good a gunman I really am, I can take care of myself, I can understand from whence comes my attack and defend myself, I have learned from my 10 years of being a gangster."

The pastor said nothing, also the very same minute, the little boy placed two cups of coffee, and left. Tyson took a sip and retained the cup in his hand, the pastor stopped the cup at his lips and said,

“Since this is your last, why don’t you have two cups of coffee…” and saying he emptied the whole cup of coffee on Tyson’s face.

Astounded by the quick of turn of events, Tyson failed to notice the man whom he called pastor and had introduced as pastor pull out a rifle and steadily aim at Tyson. Although out of the quick instincts he tries to take out his revolver, he is late as the “pastor” fires six shots onto Tyson’s bare chest, and so the body falls backwards with the chair. The whole café watches in a shock as Zack kneels down by the dying Tyson and whispers some final words,

“Alas! The great Tyson has fallen and arises hereby the little Zack to take the place. I was taught to hack the main server rather than implanting virus in the little members. You should’ve known that God did send you many messengers whom you rejected were all trying to help, including me...Rot in Hell Tyson!”
