“I’m outta that game now, I’m ligit.” Said AJ while sipping on the cheapest whisky the bar had to offer
“We need you AJ, We need the best.” Paulie said with a hint of desperation in his voice.
“I ain’t the best anymore, I’m retired.”
“Men like you don’t retire AJ.”
“Look man, I got out 3 months ago and I aint goin back in, why don’t you try Jimmy the Hat?”
“You didn’t hear about Jimmy?” Paulie seemed surprised, surely everyone had heard about Jimmy by now.
“I don’t keep in touch with the old crew anymore.”
“Jimmy died 6 months ago, he was pullin a job and it went south.”
“That’s too bad.”
“Yeah, I hear they’re still picking bits of him off the roof of that pet store.”
“Pet store?” AJ was surprised at this, Jimmy was a pro, why would he be robbing a pet store.
“Long story, Look AJ we need the best, and that’s you.”
“Not interested.”
“Don’t you even wanna know the target?”
“Not really.”
“It’s the Silver City casino.”
“Frankie’s place?”
AJ downed what was left of his cheap whisky
“When do we leave?”
