"They will have to bring more then, then.. then you"
The reluctance in her words amused Sol greatly... This little girl now was probably trying to look for a way out with all her being.
Amusement was very short-living however... Disrupting the silence of this hallway with her loud steps,a woman came towards them from behind him, surprised him with her sudden appearance. Sol's eyes narrowed and turned into a slit as he saw who this woman was.
She came like she was waltzing into a party, wearing that pretty and clean dress with that bossy attitude even... She was in total contrast to Sol's dusty appearance.
"Oh greaaat!" Sol thought, "they are here to spoil my fun... again!"
He was planning to bring Anna back to Malta himself. In their last conversation, even though he knew the whereabouts of Anna for weeks, he said nothing about it, but did not wonder on how they found her.
"They probably followed me", he thought, "I would"
As she made that slight head movement, Sol felt anger...
She didn't even say a word to him! What nerve! Who do you think you are, woman! You are in the presence of Sol, the fierce wolf of Malta! You come to steal my prey and don't even say... please?!
These were of course very silent thoughts.
Sol realized how much he hated the navy once again... Especially this... bossy granny... with that... very nice, long, shapely legs...
Sol let go of Anna's shoulder as he was sure that she had nowhere to go anymore... His intuition told him that they were already surrounded.
He whiffed another black cloud towards them, with the hopes of annoying them and to mean that, Hey, I am here!
