Wonderfully penned. Straight to the point without giving the hypocrite lecteur the possibility of thinking until the end of the story! Amazing! There is a typo in the seventh paragraph : Stcky needs an "I".
A great work! Blessings and thank you for sharing. Tony

    Well, as I joke with some friends on here: I see that you've been rummaging through my closet... LOL!! ;) :) Glad you enjoyed this one, but, I have to warn you for future reference, you just NEVER know what you'll find in there, sir!! ;) :) Thanx for these lovely stars, Tony, and for the typo catch -- all are so very much appreciated!! ;) :) Take care over there in your corner of the world! ;) Yvette

Hardboiled - or film noir...this is a fine slick entry in the contest. The whole deal goes down smoothly, and it seems no one is left alive to identify Mr Tux.

This is a good entry for the contest {smiles}.

Here are a couple of points you might like to consider:

I adjusted my bowtie and took the stcky note -- Spags? I think it's "bow tie". And have you you've mis-typed "sticky" or is there a "stcky" brand?

I heard the sound of footsteps and readied my 'gift'. -- Ha, ha. I like the in-quotes gift here {smiles}.

Best of luck when the voting booth opens {smiles}.

    I added a note about 'sticky' since you mentioned it...everyone around the office and that I've spoken to 'in conversation' just calls the Post-It notes sticky notes. Thank you for the thoughtful review.

Wow, this guy really doesn't want any loose ends. I certainly hope I never meet him. Is his client safe? I can imagine this guy taking the money and then tying up that loose end too.

This was certainly full of unexpected twists and turns, and yet the author has managed to take each thread to its conclusion within the short word count allocated.
I enjoyed it very much, except for ""Now, that's good for about fifteen minutes, so you'd better make a good impression or" -she winked, knowingly- "you'll be stuck in the penthouse together all night."" which puzzled me, even after two read throughs.

    thanks for the clarification - it could be me that's dense, but I don't think I'd have ever guessed, if more people ask, maybe you should find an alternative.
