"The Lesser of Two Evils"
My niece takes her lunch in her normal quiet, secluded section of the park. The fruit juice smoothie she gets from the park vendor -- the first of my Partners In Crime -- is laced with sedatives, and by the time she gets half way through it, she slumps back onto the grass for an impromptu nap. A man -- my second PIC -- hurries over the little hillock upon which my niece is passed out, throws her over his shoulder, and rushes her back to the van parked on a maintenance access road a couple of dozen yards away.
Although I am at least two hundred yards away -- on the far side of the duck pond -- I can see enough of the activity to know that, so far, the plan is unfolding as designed. I look up and down the shore line for any sign that the other park goers have witnessed what I have. It seems obvious that none have.
"Robert!" an excited voice calls out. I look up to see my brother -- her father -- just as he steps into hand shaking range. We clasp hands as he says, "Thanks for meeting me, Bro."
"Of course, Tommy!" I respond, gesturing him to a seat and waving to the waitress. "You call and tell me you want to buy me a free lunch ... and you think I'm going to turn that down?"
That statement is, of course, a veiled reminder that -- just before his death -- my father was tricked by my conniving brother into making Tommy the sole heir to the family business. Now, a year later, with no real income, I am up to my eyeballs in debt, facing bankruptcy, and already two weeks into the three week notice to vacate my downtown condominium.
"You're not still upset about--"
"No, no, don't be silly, bro," I say, slapping him on the shoulder. "You're the better man to run the company. Look at the turn around. Company's doing great ... share holders are getting rich ... everyone's tickled pink. Dad did what was right."
We eat and talk, with me stretching out the get together as long as I can. This lunch is more than just a three digit tax write off for my brother. It's also my alibi for what is coming soon. I know that I will be high on the suspect list. What better way to prove my lack of involvement than to be sitting right here with my brother at the time of his only child's kidnapping.
We finish dessert and chat about Thomas's plans for a piece of property the company recently purchased when his phone chimes at him. He raises an index fingers in a wait gesture, then touches an icon on the screen. His eyes widen, his lower jaw drops, and his face goes white.
"What is it, Tommy?" I asked with a skillfully practiced tone of concern.
He looks up with an expression of horror. "It's ... it's..."
He can't say it and instead hands me his phone. On it is a picture of my niece tied up on the floor of a van. The kidnapper holds the New York Times -- to establish the date as today, of course -- and a scrawled note that says No cops or she's dead. We will call soon.
"Oh my God, Tommy," I respond. "We ... we have to call the cops."
"No!" he says quickly, repeating the kidnapper's threat. He stands quickly, waving down the waitress and handing me his AmEx. "Can you...?"
"I'll take care of this, Tommy," I say quickly, standing to clutch him and look into his eyes. "Go home. Be with Emily. I have a buddy on the force that I can--"
"No police!"
"No police, I know," I verify. "I won't involve the department, but ... he can help us ... unofficially ... okay?"
Thomas is frazzled, which is perfect for me, of course. It doesn't occur to him that the kidnapping may have only just now happened; or that, because of the time of this work day, his daughter was just across the pond, in sight of her old man.
"Go home, Tommy," I stress. "I'll be along in an hour or so."
He agrees, we embrace, we separate, and -- after I see that he is definitely destined for the chauffeured Towncar sitting at the restaurant's curb -- I head off in the other direction.
I rear back and throw the punch into the man's forehead. His head snaps backward a few inches, just before he drops to the floor in silence. I growl, "What the fuck are you thinking?"
I stare down at the very stunned, very disoriented man, then look to the second man and growl, "Kyle, if you fucking touched her--"
He throws his hands into the air. "Whoa! No way man."
"But you stripped her!"
Kyle points to the man trying to sit up, still wobbling from the punch that has me wringing my now aching hand. "That was Howie's idea. He thought a picture of her naked would be more convincing to her father than--"
"Shut up!" I cut in. When he starts to excuse himself again, I repeat the order more forcefully, then ask, "Is she senseless?"
"Yeah, man," Howie manages from his now sitting position. "Blind fold ... ear plugs ... got a white noise device by her head. She hasn't regained consciousness yet, but her vitals are fine. She can't hear us, or see us."
"Blind fold and ear plugs ... but no clothes," I accuse.
Knowing she can't hear or see me, I step over to the bedroom door and peek through the peep hole that we installed backward for this specific reason. I feel a bit guilty as I stare in on my niece's nearly nude figure. I can't help but ogle the well rounded ass of the beautiful 20 year old college sophomore for a moment before turning back to the two men.
"Did you enjoy that?" I growl at Howie. "Stripping a little girl's panties and bra off--"
"Whoa!" the man cuts in. "She ain't no fucking little girl. I ain't seen a body like that in a--"
He doesn't see the second punch coming. I hit him even harder this time, and later -- after he comes to and Kyle applies the first of many ice packs to his skull -- we will find that I broke one of the fingers that had been rubbing at the pain in his forehead caused by the first punch it had received.
