Greg sank into the tub of warm oily water.He sighed as he felt the warmth seep into his pores and give the needed soothing he desperately desired.It was very early morning now and the blood caked on his body was just beginning to dissolve and come loose floating into and out in the water around his body.He would never have believed it if a friends was telling him the story,what were the odds that he would be killing three people in the same night.The horror of what happened when he opened the door to his home was too much for him at this point.His face was deathly pale and he was bleeding slowly,he could have been sitting in a tub of cranberry juice if any one saw him,the water got a deeper shade of red every few minutes.Gently he swabbed at his cuts and wounds with a wash cloth and pressed hard against a particularly large gash on his shoulder ebbing the flow of his dark crimson nutrients.His mind wandered and he thought about Randy.He forced a chuckle from his dry lips,of all the people to think about at a time like this,a time when he himself lay dying.Maybe it was because he had killed Randy in cold blood,a crime of greed.He wanted to think he didn't have any feelings about the matter,he never had the time to think about it,one moment he was fighting for some money,then he was running away from a murder,albeit Randy smashed his head via a fall,but he,Greg,was the one that caused the fall.In this city there was no manslaughter by degrees,it was a murder charge,final.The judges and city officials worked in tandem to clean up the city streets of it crime,there was no leniency
He was angry at Randy,he had to at least admit that to himself,perhaps jealous ,maybe he had covetous feeling towards Randy's good looks and affluence,the way he was always surrounded by an entourage. .
