Povo

by Brett Matthew West


The hitman's body ached as Povo climbed off his Harley. The killer endured the lengthy journey for one reason. He must silence the myna bird forever.

The camarero at Matamoros's most influential and prominent cantina, Myna gathered the knowledge to cease marriages, lives and careers at will. He needed to be executed. The Colt in his pocket, with the silencer attached, opportunity presented itself to Povo.

Myna perched behind the bar. A shot rang out. Povo crashed to the floor.

"Gracias, amigo." Myna smiled.

Finishing his tequila blanco, a stranger seated at the end of the bar replied, "De nada."
