THE BLACK BART OF TACO KING #17

By Rickey Larke

HART (30s) enters a dive bar to find a new partner. After failing twice, Hart spots LIA (Late 20s) robbing a macho flirt, DJ (20s). Lia exits with DJs wallet and Hart follows, catching her in the parking lot. He promises to double what she took if she goes to dinner with him. Lia agrees. At dinner, he asks Lia to rob the restaurant they’re in. They negotiate a 60/40 split which includes Hart’s watch and the promise of more jobs with bigger pay. Lia agrees and Hart exits leaving Lia to execute the plan he described. Lia decides to rob the cashier in a more thoughtful way, by using a poetic note and leaving peacefully. Unbeknownst to Hart, Lia steals all the money for herself via doggy bag.
