The Mechanic - S01 E05

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 5

Things continued normally ever since then until few weeks when Tony now usually stayed overnight at work searching for things and as my source (Mr’s logy) says, he’s looking for some keys, -ancient keys she said. Funny isn’t it?

Everything just keeps on getting weirder- bunch of exotic cars without doors, a guy I think I know threatening my boss while his daughter just stand foolishly also my boss searching for things… All freaking weired Mehn!.

Tonight I had stay back a little coz there’s this car that was brought in crumpled like a piece of paper, it belongs to a street racer, I guess he must have crashed so I worked the whole day just to bring it back in better shape.

I had just locked my worshop and I was walking hurriedly across the yard coz I was going to pick Eva up. I passed the huge garage door when I saw a flickering light in my Tony’s office beside the garage, I moved close to cofirm and then I saw Tony, I decided I to go in but before then I sent a message to Eva tell her I won’t be able to come pick her up again. With that, I pushed the quietly and I entered…

Slowly, Tony raised his head from his table and his small eyes were red, Must have been crying-

I thought.

“Steve… ”

His voice was shaky

“what’s up old man?.. You Need a BJ? ”

I tried to lighten up his mood .

“things ain’t good boy”

“Talk to me” quickly I drew a chair and sat opposite him.

“There’s nothing, certainly theres nothing but there are times when an old man needs to think his life over and over”

His face was blank, I could tell he wasnt himself right now so pressed further..

“Nothing really? Then you mind telling me what the f--k those cars without doors are doing in your garage! ” my voice went up pretty too much.

“I’m sorry”

I quickly apologized

“nothing to be sorry about my son, you’re just been observant and that’s all”

“Don’t you even miss your father? ” his question threw me completely off guard.

“I do some…times”

“I miss him too.. He was more than a friend to me- a master perhaps ”

I really didn’t like how he swerved the matter but what he said was important too- The old man put his head down again.

“it’s all gonna be alright Tony”

“and whatever you’re doing that’s not giving you peace of mind, let it go”

Immediately I said that he threw his head up and water began to roll down his eyes. Mehn.. I felt pity for the old man as I watched him sniff and sob like a baby.

#little did I know the pity was for me

Later that night as I locked up the gate after I helped Tony into his car. I had bolted the door and as I turned,

“BOOM! ”

Eva’s voice tore through my ears.

“Geez, why did you have to do that? ” I questioned as I relaxed my shocked body system.

“well, you seem to be lost so I rammed you up” she said as she drew my head near for a kiss. I heard a wince down which I quickly broke the kiss.

“oh my.. You brought him along too”

Sparrow wagged his tail generously as I put my hand on his head.

“He’s such a good Dog, you know… He followed me around the bar” Eva commented as we walk down the street.
