“I’m just glad you’re with us and not with the “Bhai Bhai (Brother brother) gang” out there.”“Thanks, but I don’t think you’re here ...o talk about that.”“Oh no, Aamir. No. I wanted to meet you, see you up close with my own eyes.”“Same here, Saeed. I also wanted to see the man Bashir and I… never mind.”“Okay, so Rashid told me that you called him this morning. What have you got to say?”“Oh yeah, sure,” Aamir started talking.Aamir explained to Saeed and Rashid about the new developments at his. Then I went outside, snuck up to the van and gave the driver a shot to theface.Then I took the driver back inside, and started securing them all.I was rather glad I hadn't killed any of them.I was about to have enough deaths on my conscience anyway.By the time I had the last of them secured, the leader was starting tocome around.She started saying how they had the law on their side, and I didn't haveany right to do what I was doing.I said, "The law is wrong. Just because I don't meet some. " Don't blame him. You both made the bet." Yes, but he's the one who ratted me out to my girlfriend," I countered."Fair enough," Amy replied as she shrugged.I pulled off my wife's coat and a grin came across Amy's face. Sheexamined me up close and said, "Your girlfriend helped you dress, didn'tshe?" What gave it away?" Your laces aren't that tight when you tie it yourself. And thatmakeup, she did it, didn't she?"I nodded prompting Amy to grin and shake her head, "It takes all types." What's. She watched as his eyes flickered, then closed. He was tired, the ride had only worsened the wounds. She didn’t want to imagine the battle that caused these gashes and cuts, she was just glad that he had returned to her once more. She reached over to a stack of towels beside the bed and, one at a time, began wetting them and washing away the dust, sand and blood. Towel after towel hit the ground beside her, until he and his rather large wounds were cleaned. Quietly, she sutured his wounds.
