Reb walked down the back alley, she met another guy down at the back.
"Yo Jodiah..." she said in a dark voice.
"I got your package..." he said flatly.
"You don't beat around the bush..."
"None of us do..." he answered.
"I figured that out by now. How much is it gonna cost me?"
"Depends on how much you want..."
"Only a little, I don't like having it in my pockets..."
"five bucks..."
"Sorry, Jodiah, can't take it, it's too much." When she said that, Jodiah stepped toward her.
"I brought this for you Reb..." he growled.
"I can't buy it at that price..." Reb answered. "I don't got no money!" He took another step toward her and she flicked out her knife, pressing it to his skin. "I told you I don't have any money, I can't buy it." she growled.
"Take it easy." Jodiah breathed uneasily.
"I'll take it easy, I'll have money next week, bring it by then. I have to go." she closed her pocket knife, slipped it into her pocket and headed out to the drizzling streets.
