TBD on Ning
Angel without Wings cont.-2
“Look David he placed the camera on that side table. Ya’ think you can nab it without him noticing you?” Terri whispered in excitement to him. “ I’ll make some sort of hullabaloo that I lost my earring and keep them busy with me while you reach the table, okay?”
Yeah yeah. Just make it long enough so’s I can get to the camera.” David said.
Terri entered the room shouting. ‘I know it dropped here when that lug grabbed my arm and I lost it. David look for it around where you were standing….
“What th’ tarnations? You back again? Who let you in?” Sargeant O’Malley looking up to where Terri had bent over and seems to be looking at the floor. “Donnelley! Didn’t I tell you to get rid of them? Why the hell are they back in here? Can’t you follow orders , you blockhead,or do I have to demote you down to walking the beat once more?” O’Malley continued to shout at his co-hort.
“Sarge I kicked them out. I dunno where the gal came from? I saw her go down the first flight of stairs. She must’ve sneaked past me when you called me to help the coroner turn the body. I swear she wasn’t there before.” Donnelly looked at him scratching his head underneath his cap. Then O’Malley turned and saw David at the table fidgeting with the camera.
“Hey you over there. What the hell are you doing? Put that down right now.” Now O’Malley was burning up. Donnelly let go of Terri’s arm that he had gone and picked her up from the floor next to the body and moved quickly to where David was standing before O’Malley got a chance to get there.
“I got ‘im boss. Gimme that thing.” Donnelly yelled grabbing the camera trying to force it from David’s hand. The camera slipped and fell to the floor as both Donnelly and David dove down for it. Donnelly grabbed it first but David followed. Losing his balance Donnelly landed on his stomach on top of David. David hollered a piercing: “Ugh! Shit ! You fat cow! I can't breath.” As they both hit the floor at the same time practically crushing David, who only weighed 165 pounds next to Donnelly's 210.
“You dumb ox!” O’Malley shouted at the top of his lungs. “I don’t need two murders today. You almost crushed that poor kid. Get up and let him breath.” He ordered him. Donnelly tried to get up but being so heavy around the belly he couldn’t get his balance and David finally used his legs to push him to one side making him roll over. Then he just lay there exhausted panting.
“Gimme that camera!” O’Malley continued crazed with anger grabbing the camera from Donnelly’s hand. “Get up and act like a cop. Take those two all the way downstairs right this minute and kick them out into the street... now. And be sure they don’t get back in here, you got that?”
“Yes sir, right now. I will, Sir. Cm’on you two. Get the lead out. Stand up.” He lifts David making him fly in the air like a weightless feather off the floor and heads over to grab Terri’s arm pushing them both towards the main door like two lifeless rags. O’Malley kept looking at the scene while he shook his head. “Why do I have to get such ninkompoops every time?”
