“You should have told us. We could have done something to help,” Chico said.
“I thought that if you knew, you’d kick me out of the club. I thought, you’d think I was back on the shit again.”
“No, if you were back on the shit, I’d know, but we could of done something about Cheri. We could have forced her to go to rehab or something,” Chico said.
“She wouldn’t have gone. I should have cut her loose along time ago, but I was afraid too,” Lead Belly replied.
“You loved her man. That would have been a hard thing to do,” Dirty Dan, a short grubby looking biker said.
“Yeah, well it’s too late now. She’s dead.”
“Don’t worry about the services or anything. The club will cover everything,” Chico said and stood to his feet. “Why don’t you climb on that scooter and ride down to the clubhouse with us. We’ll do some partying. I know there’s some women down there that would love to help you keep your mind off your sorrows.”
“There’s never a shortage of women hanging around the clubhouse,” Tiny said. “There’s that girl Janet from Subway. I swear that girl has a thing for you,” Dirty Dan replied.
Lead Belly laughed. “No, you guys go. I don’t feel up to it.”
Chico stood on the front porch with his right hand in his pants pocket. A concerned look crossed his face. “All right bro, just don’t do anything stupid.”
Lead Belly waved good-bye and watched his club brothers climb on their scooters and ride away. Once they pulled onto the main road and roared away, he pulled a 357 Magnum, Ruger Blackhawk handgun from his vest. He took a bullet from the box, setting next to his chair, popped out the revolving cylinder put a bullet into the cylinder, and popped the cylinder closed. Putting the barrel of the weapon up against his temple, he cocked the hammer and pulled the trigger.
