The boy looked heavenwards.’’ What seemed to
be a boon then turned out to be a bane.’’ The old man was now talking to
himself.
‘’ Thanks to my detailed knowledge of the
gang’s activities I could locate and retrieve several stashes which could have
otherwise been claimed by my fellow criminals too but who were now either
already dead or were in prison.’’
**************
‘ Here it comes.’ The boy thought.
‘’ Cunning that I was I vanished
successfully along with my ill gotten gains.’’
By now the boy had begun suspecting
strongly that this wily old man had probably sold his gang down the river and
had squealed against them to the cops.
As a reward for this unspeakable devilry
they had allowed him to disappear without a trace.
