I pulled away from the gate and sped down the quiet suburban street before they could confront me. Tundra�s hand was bandaged and Nickoy�s weapon drawn. I was behind the wheel of my car and starting the ignition when both Nickoy and Tundra came rushing around that same corner. Keeping my eyes on him, I continued on my way, passed him by and rounded the corner. The spliff (marijuana cigarette) between his fingers and the smell of weed told me he was taking a smoke.
He seemed surprised to see me there and I figured he was not out looking for me. As I slipped out and hurried to the front where my car was parked, I met Nickoy coming around the corner. Leroy being passed out gave me only a few minutes to exit before the men were alerted of my departure.
Just as I thought, the second apartment had its own exit, which led to a car port at the back of the building.
