The Robbery

(Pit-a-pat Pit-a-pat) It rained heavily...

Damon who just turned 25 went to withdraw some money from the bank but got stuck in the bank. It was his birthday, and he had to go visit his father.

He wasn't fond of his birthday as this was the day he lost his elder brother, Patrick. He was just a 3yrs old kid when his brother died. Damon's parents divorced after their son, Patrick's death. He stayed with his father whereas his mother remarried, and had a son Aden.

Damon waited and waited for the rain to slow down so that he could go home to his father who was waiting so that they could go meet his brother. His eyes were sad and frustrated as the rainwater kept pouring. The streets were filled with water. Damon was stuck in the bank, and there was no way he could get out! He was waiting for the rain to stop when 3 people entered the bank holding guns. Their face was hidden behind a big mask. The only part visible was their eyes which were filled with LUST. The lust for money.

It was a robbery! The robbers gathered everyone together, made them kneel on the floor with their hands above their heads, and made them throw their mobile phones on their feet. Damon was scared and hid behind a dustbin. His body was shaking in fear as he was scared of guns! The robbers disconnected the cameras and started to loot. The bank manager hid behind a desk and tried contacting the police, but to no use because there was a poor network due to heavy rains.

One of the robbers, Vin saw the manager trying to call the police. It made him furious. He shot the manager (bang)! , a loud noise was heard, the bullet hit the manager's shoulder and he started to bleed. People panicked and started screaming when they heard the gunshot. Another loud noise was heard(bang), this time it wasn't Vin, but his partner and brother Benjamin!

Benjamin had a very intimidating look in his eyes. No one in the room dared to lift their heads to look at him. His voice was deep and fierce as if he could kill them with his voice. He spoke as everyone went silent in fear "Zip your annoying mouths! If I were to hear anybody else screaming or crying, I would put this gun in their filthy mouth and blow their f***ing head!" Everyone started shivering in fear for their life, tears rolling down their cheeks!! They started nodding vigorously to comply.

Benjamin then smirked and got hold of a woman's hair who was weeping. She had her hand placed across her mouth firm and tight to prevent any noise. He swung her to his side and put the gun on her head. The gun had just fired a fresh bullet, so it was hot with fumes coming through the nozzle, and traces of gunpowder were present on the nozzle. The skin on the woman's temple started burning due to the hot nozzle. The woman was in pain, but couldn't cry because he said he would shoot if he were to hear any voices. He was delighted when he saw the woman twitching in pain without making any noise.

He then said in a delighted voice " Good! This is what I was talking about! Look at her! Just look at her! So obedient. I don't harm people who obey me, but if they disobey me....." His eyes darkened, the corners of his mouth dropped down " It won't take me a second to shoot this little thing (bullet) in your head!."

He then pushed the woman to the floor, and said "If any jerk present in this room try contacting the police, then remember! It's not just him that's going to die, but also the people sitting beside him that are gonna die!" He then went back to do what he was doing while Vin and the 3rd robber watched the people.

Damon couldn't move after witnessing the whole scene. He was well hidden behind a dustbin where no one would see him! He thought to himself "This may be the last day of my life! I have to talk to my dad!!!! This may be my last time and I may never get the chance to talk to him again! He gathered some courage, took his phone out of his pocket, and started to dial the number 987*******. His hands were trembling. The call couldn't connect due to a poor network. Damon was disappointed, but he kept trying and finally the call connected after 5-6 tries, but when his father picked the call, he heard a gunshot (bang)!!!
