The pain in his body disappeared as the boy spoke, his words soothing him into numbness. All he could think of was how much this boy’s words made sense. He had been such a horrible person for so long. He needed to make amends, he needed to pay for the things he had done.
“Yes, I will,” he replied to the boy, who smiled with satisfaction.
“Can’t I hit him just one more time?” Gabe asked the boy who shook his head.
“He’ll end up with brain damage. We did what we came to do.”
Gabe sneered as he looked at Sampson. “Consider yourself lucky that Cordelia doesn’t want you dead. You better do what he tells you.”
“Don’t worry, the implanted thoughts will stay there as long as I’m alive,” Golden Boy said with confidence. “Now let’s go home.”
The two men walked out and Sampson found himself alone again in his apartment. The place was trashed but he didn’t bother to get up to deal with it. He was leaving tomorrow anyway. He needed to sleep so he could get up early and start on the path to absolution.
He was going to make Mother Teresa look like an asshole.
