“I’ll be in touch, Mr. Gentry,” John said, although Nick was already headed down the steps at that point.
Once he was certain that Nick was gone and on his way, John the Baptist picked up his phone and dialed a certain, familiar number. The call was answered on the first ring.
“He’s on his way,” John said. “And don’t worry, Mr. Gentry knows the situation. I suspect he will find a way to dispatch of the death angel in short order. After all, he stands to lose a son if he doesn’t.”
John listened for a moment as the person he was talking to raised their voice. He sighed. “I understand your concern. Believe me, I do. All we can do at this point is pray. That’s all we can ever do.”
And with that he hung up the phone and bowed his head.
