Not sure what the subtext is but I tried to create some sort of underlying conflict.
“Listen,
maybe this isn’t such a great idea,” the man said.
“I
told you about the car, I had a friend rent it form Avis at JFK. Just call your
mark. I’ll park the car right by that school on 58th street coming
up here,” the driver said.
“Some
friend you are. Where?” the man said.
“Right
by the scaffolding on the right side of the street,” said the driver.
“Alright,
I’ll text him. Do see any cameras?” The man asked the driver.
“No.”
The driver said. “I can’t really see much with the window tint.”
“Can
you turn the radio down?” the man said.
“What
you don’t like the Notorious B.I.G.? Notorious is a classic”
“You
may be a guini but your no gumba. I don’t wanna hear that shit,” The man said.
“I
was just getting in the mood,” said the driver.
“There
is only one mood you need to be and that’s steady. Are you sure there aren’t
any cameras around here. There has to be, it’s a fucking school. These days
with all the school shootings they’d probably couldn’t open their doors if they
didn’t have some security measures,” said the man. “Couldn’t afford the
insurance,” he said to himself.
“I
don’t know its not like I have been here before,” said the driver.
“You
talk too much,” the man said.
“Did
he get back to you yet?”
“Yeah,
the man said, “He’ll be at the corner of 58th and 7th
Ave. in 10 minutes.”
“Can
I ask you a question?” said the driver.
“What
like how am I going to do it?” The man said to the driver. “Do I ask you how to
do your fucking job?”
“Hold
up. I was gonna ask you where you wanted to go eat afterwards,” said the
driver.
“Eat?”
“Yeah,
I’m hungry. I was thinking about going to a diner and getting a burger at a
diner. And I was going to ask you what part of the city has the best diners?”
“That’s
easy,” the man said.
“It
is? What are you going to say Bay Ridge or Bensonhurst?” replied the driver.
“For
the best diners you have to go where the Greeks are so that would be Astoria.
And in Astoria I know a couple of places –Neptune’s on 31st, Jackson
Hole Airport Diner on Astoria Blvd, and Bel Aire on 21st” said the
man.
“So
which one do you want to go to?”
“I don’t fucking know, why not get McDonalds.”
“I don’t fucking know, why not get McDonalds.”
“Cause
they have cameras” said the driver.
“Jackson
Hole has the best burgers but Bel Aire puts us north of the Grand Central right
by the Triboro or what do they fucking call it now?
“RFK”
“Right
the RFK Bridge.”
“Hey,
I got eyes on that mook you told me about earlier. That Law School mule who
double crossed your friends.”
“Hold
on I’ll text him again.”
“Yeah,
that’s him.”
“Hey,”
the driver said to the man, “put your fucking hood up before you get out. I
don’t want to get caught.”
