“Did you bring it?” the raspy voice said from behind.
Carol turned to face the man and studied the slitty eyes peering from behind the ski mask. So the bastard came. His expression was detached, it wasn’t what she wanted to see. He won’t be fooled, not this time. But she needed what he had and would tell him anything to get it.
She glanced down at her sneakers again. God help her, the smudge was still there.
Uh oh. The smudge?
This is excellent. I like the characterization. I think I’d be more afraid of him than she seems to be. Then again, he has something she needs…
Nicely done!

Carol is a cool customer, for sure. That smudge hints at her undoing. Excellent 8, thank you for sharing.
