When I looked down the sight of a gun and took aim straight to Tola's left knee, I didn't even bother to think about it twice. I just slowly exhaled and pull the trigger. Boy, it felt good. The explosion of sensations, from a bright muzzle flash and body-jolting recoil to an ear-splitting bang and acrid smell of burnt gunpowder made me happy for some reason. I know that I should be shocked of my actions but nope, I enjoyed it to the fullest.
For some reason, I felt like a thrill kill. I felt like a character in a movie who is premeditated. Is this "hedonistic mass killing?" I think I need help right after I kill Tola!!
"You know Tola, I am beginning to love this. I feel like it's my gift and if you don't start talking, I don't know what I'm gonna do to you. You think I'm weak, I'll show you weak!" I could see the fear in Tola's eyes. She wanted to speak but she aaw the anger in me. I was ready and willing

Our plan had been executed flawlessly, and we followed smoothly through with each step. The police were none the wiser, unable to trace our whereabouts. We remained committed to the plan, ensuring we stayed under the radar and avoided possible detection. We needed not to get caught, as this would buy us the time to handle the doctor. If he believed he could escape my grasp, he would soon realise I had no intention of playing games or letting him slip away. While success was within reach, caution was still necessary. It was crucial to remain vigilant and prepared for any unexpected developments. Despite the team's confidence in their abilities and lack of belief in a backup plan, I knew the importance of being prepared for unforeseen circumstances. In this line of work, anything could happen, and having a contingency plan was a wise approach. However, enough about Ronald and the plan for now. I shifted my focus to my children, Daniela and Ravi.
