A story by me: The Game of the Gang
The Game of the Gang
By:AL RHEEL
A rainy night and with dogs bark in the neighborhood, a gun shot and then worried ,hurry steps in the wet ground. A shouting of a strong voice '' come back damit, we have to hide this body before the coming of the police , come back '' but the sound of the steps had already disappeared and the dogs were barking.
Tow men in the Black Cat bar , drinking and having chat
'' It was a terrible night Franky . It was the first time I kill a man and it was extremely a black point in my life .'' Franky '' come on , go through it Marty. A man lives a man dies this is the gang's life, nothing more '' . Franky take off his hat and put his hand in his partner shoulder and pressed it strongly '' hay buddy , you had achieved a hit in that night. All of the back street boys are speaking a lot about it. You should be very proud''.Marty in a furious voice '' damit franky, there is no pride in killing a friend, absolutely there isn't .'' Franky put his hat in his knee and said '' but you know that charley was a deadly headache for all the gangs . Lately he lost his mind and started to kill for a dirty mony.Lots of boys from different gangs wanted to get revenge but they were afraid of him and finally he was close at hand and thanks god you did it very well .well don indeed .'' Marty with a sharp glance '' buddy ,you speak as if he wasn't your closer friends !!'' Franky with a smell of disgusting in his voice '' like hell, that rubbish ? He wasn't .I tried to
avoid his bloody nature and madness by pretending that I'm his head hat but the truth is that I wasn't and I will never be. You are on my top interest list and you know that buddy.'' Marty with the same sharp glance '' I hope that buddy ,I hope that.'' Then he breathed strongly and put his hands in the wooden table and start to drink
again with out recognizing that Franky was watching him with the eyes of the buzzards .'' I will tell you a secret . The night that I killed charley, I had a nightmare .He visited me in my dream with a promise to get revenge very soon.'' Marty said while he was watching the roof with no expression and he said you know thing ? he was one of my best friends but the dam need and dirty money were controlling me .I was like a piece of wood in the fire. I become a monster , exactly as he was .Come hell or high water. Indeed, it worth for a huge amount of money .isn't it ? Franky supporting the idea while he was imagining the money in his mind '' it is my friend , it is but how did you kill him? Everybody knows he was a strong legendary man, not easy to fell him down. '' Marty proudly '' it was close to the wind but come on buddy , six bottles of beers in the black cat bar were enough to shake his mind and then…….
Franky with a foxy smile '' then….'' And Marty completed '' pooom , just one in the middle of the head ,nothing else , '' and he repeated in a whisper '' nothing else '' Franky laughing '' yah buddy warm up, nothing else.Come on and drink more buddy ..for our party.. for your glory. hay waiter one bottle for my friend over here, a big one.
In that rainy night lots of whispers were spreading in the streets among the gangs secretly , very quite .One of the men said '' damit I can't believe that big Charley had gone forever with one shot from Marty 's gun . Another man said '' he deserved it. He was a killing machine just for dirty money .Along and old man with a foxy smile '' aren't we ? '' Another one with anger '' yes we are, but not that much. An old man with a scare face '' Indeed , Charley is nothing more than a ghost now. Let us keep up with the new complicated business'' .'' What do you mean ?'' one of the members asked . '' Marty , the new killing machine '' the scar face said . Then the old man said in trust '' hah , don't be afraid .Money can does anything as you know, trust me.
The same rainy night , tow men getting out from the Black Cat bar laughing loudly ,holding each other and singing an old song '' This is the life hell hell , kind of game hell hell .'' Then , after moments of singing ,one of the men pulled his gun and shot one shot in the middle of his partner head .A dead body in the street ,worried and hurry steps running in the wet ground .
The dogs were barking in the same neighborhood ,but this time in a sad way.
أعيدي.. أعيدي الي ياحكاياتي
أعيدي الي ماضي المسلوب من ذكرياتي
وافتحي في حاضري نافذتي وشرفاتي
واشربي الشاي في مقاهي حماقاتي |
