Jennifer opened her eyes wide open. “What? Are you going to drive? Why?”
Bruce made an effort to find his words. “Well, it’s… yes, I mean… June will go to visit his family today, right? But the car is still here, parked I don’t know where, but it’s there. We can’t just leave it like that, so I said I would drive it back to Kenichi. It’s the least I can do after all he’s done for me.”
“You know how to get to his place?”
“Yes, I remember the way. Plus, there’s a GPS. I mean, it’s about being courteous. I don’t want Kenichi to send another of his men just to pick up the car, when I’m able to do it.”
Jennifer seemed a bit concerned. “I totally agree, but look at yourself, Bruce; you’re still drunk, it’s obvious. I mean, I can see it so clearly, the way you stand, the way you talk, everything.”
Bruce looked at her, with the only eye he could open. “Stop babysitting me. I’m fine. I can do it, okay?”
Jennifer stopped talking, unwilling to make Bruce upset. They all finished their breakfast in silence and went near the elevators.
“So what’s the plan now?” Jennifer asked.
“I need to take the car key upstairs.” Bruce said. “June’s bags are in my room too.”
Jennifer waited for them in the lobby, at the reception, still wondering if it was a good idea to let Bruce drive in his condition. Indeed, when she saw them getting out of the elevator, Bruce wasn’t walking straight and looked very bad.
“Let me go with you to the car. It’s a bit difficult to find, and it will be easier if I show you directly.” June said. The three of them walked out of the hotel and went behind the mall, where the car was parked.
As they approached the vehicle, June extended his arm to give the key to Bruce who dropped it, and the key fell on the floor. Bruce tried to lean toward the key but lost his balance. June and Jennifer quickly caught him just before his head was about to hit another car’s side mirror.
Jennifer looked at June. “Please, you can’t let him drive like this. He won’t listen to me, say something. Please.”
June seemed to be concerned, as well. “Khun Bruce, I think your wife is right. It’s not a good idea to let you drive in Bangkok in this condition. You better rest. It’s still early - I can drive back to Mr. Sakamura’s place and still catch my bus. Don’t worry, it’s okay. Mai pen rai krap.”
Jennifer tried to convince Bruce. “Did you hear him? No driving for you today. We get back to our room and you sleep. It’s really safer this way.”
“Fine, let’s do that. Sorry, June! I hope you won’t miss your bus or be late because of me.”
June bent his head and joined his hands to his forehead to say goodbye to Bruce and Jennifer, who waved at him. “Thank you! Be careful and kiss your little girl for us!”
Bruce and Jennifer waited for June to get in the car and turned around to go back to the hotel as soon as he closed the door. They heard him starting the engine and suddenly, a huge explosion made them jump and fall on the ground.
They were temporarily deaf, but could still hear all the cars’ alarms around them. It was chaos – there was a huge fire with black smoke coming out of Kenichi’s car. June was definitely dead – there was no way he could have survived such an explosion – and there was almost nothing left of the car.
Jennifer was shaking and crying, completely shocked and unable to say anything. Bruce’s jaw dropped and he looked at her with terror.
“Someone tried to kill me…”
