The Assignment


‘What is he in for?’ I asked one of the guards.

‘He’s a rapist, a pimp and a dealer,’ the guard replied disgusted, ‘His lawyers keep appealing like crazy. He gets the death penalty every other month, but he’s going to live, that son of a bitch!’

‘Could you stop so I could say a few words to him?’

   He looked at his watch. The guards exchanged glances. They nodded to each other. Then they turned the wheel-chair round and moved me back in front of the guy’s cell. They put me down, facing the cell.

The guy went nuts. He couldn’t stand still. He didn’t even listen to what he was screaming. Just like a monkey.

I asked him calmly:

‘This stinks, huh?’

He didn’t hear me and continued jumping around.

‘It stinks to be in a cell, and your lawyers to be outside doing whatever they like and just living their lives.’

He stopped and looked at me.

‘You used to be the King of the block, now you’re just another immate.’

‘You know nothing about me, you piece of shit!’ he was screaming, ‘Give him to me and I’ll get rid of him!’

‘To tell you honestly,’ I went on, as if nothing happened, ‘if I were you, I would go crazy, too.’

He pressed himself hard to the bars.

‘To know how much money I waste every day on those who don’t even visit me.’ I said quietly, ‘To know that my life is passing me by in that little cell, and in the same time, they are driving their expensive limousines, eating in fancy restaurants, sleeping with supermodels. With my own money! And they don’t really care if they could postpone my death sentence. For I have already paid them. Maybe I even paid for a year in advance. And if I get fried in the chair, they’ll just find somebody else to feed on.’

‘Take him away! He cried, ‘Take him away!’

‘And the worst part is,’ I continued coldly, ‘that you’ve always led a life like this – behind two by two bars! Long before you ended up in prison. Ever since you were a small-time dealer, you’ve been thinking only about how to sell the stuff as fast as you can and get away from somebody else’s territory. You were thinking only about survival. Life in a two by two cell! Then, when you’ve risen up in the world and started conquering your own territories, you kept living in a cell. You were constantly watching your back. You didn’t have time to actually live. You didn’t have the privilege of having a personal life. You lived in a two by two cell. All women you fucked saw you as just another pig they could feed on. They lied to you every time they could. And you trusted them. You’ve been living in a two by two cell.’

He was staring at me in silence.

‘Honestly speaking,’ I went on, ‘you lived for the benefit of Society, without getting anything in return. If someone needs drugs, you supply. If somebody wants whores, you deliver. All the time watching your back. No pleasure, no joy! And in the end? A two by two cell and the death sentences keep coming. The lawyers you pay get laid with your money! That’s your life! My dear,’ I shook my head, ‘you were just doing what you were told. Now it’s a matter of time for your lawyers to get a larger sum from somebody else and to forget you. That’s your life – two by two.

He was just staring in silence. I decided to finish him off, because the guards were getting impatient – my sentence was waiting, too.

‘The saddest thing of all,’ I added, ‘is that you never felt the true simple human pleasures. Love, joy, friendship… And you never will! You never had a personal life! And you never will! You’ve never been happy!’ I paused, ‘And you never will be!’ I shook my head, ‘Your whole life was just a two by two cell! And if I were you, I would kill myself and end this farce!’

I looked at the guard on my right:

‘Let’s move it, we’re late!’

He shook his head (What a freak!). Then he took me to the Chair. It felt such long time. I wanted to end it as quickly as possible. Why wait?
