CREATIVE WRITING

Should he take the risk and have a look? Yeah, he had nothing to lose... except his life. But his life had turned out to be a little more risky lately. So he turned around in his room, thinking about where to put a hidden camera. While he was turning around, he did not notice the eyes of the lady on the picture on the wall...

he didn't realized that he was watched all the time. the eyes were very watchful. and everything jimmy did was recorded on a tiny tape. and the person behind the screen was worried and angry. the whole community was in danger. what was that stupid git doing? he was very closed to get killed.

Just when Jimmy had stretched out his hand to take the picture down from the wall, the doorbell rang.
Oh no, he thought, they have found out, and are coming to stop me!

Jimmy wasn't willing to give up his life. He loved his life, most of the time. What about not opening the door? Would they enter anyway? But on the other hand, he might just have decided to change the picture in the frame, and not, as he was, looking for spyware (kann man das sagen?! oder gilt das nur für den pc?). he person on the other side of the door was very impatient, the doorbell rang again. Jimmy was drawn towards it. Couldn't help it. Maybe he should just die as a man?

He took a deep breath and put down the handle, ready to die. The door opened very slowly and outside there was... the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. She smiled and asked: "May I come in? I'm sure the neighbours will wonder what we are doing if I stay out here and you keep staring at me." Jimmy was so surprised, he did not even answer her. He just stepped back and let her come in. She went directly to the living-room, without having trouble to find it. Where did she know this from? Jimmy wondered.

"I guess you already know what I am here for."
Jimmy involuntarily shuddered.
"No", she smiled. "I am not here to punish you. But to show you what is to be gained by working along with us."

she was the devil. jimmy was sure. she was here to kill him, no matter what she said.
"i would like to drink a martini, please?!" she said without introducing herself.
"what? oh..yes sure..." and he went to the kitchen. the beautiful woman set herself on his couch, making herself comfortable, looking like a normal guest.

He was reminded of these old James-Bond-movies. The beautiful female spies always tried to kill the hero after seducing him.
The hero? Jimmy thought he'd finally lost the last of his sanity. Like it was all a movie, and he was the hero of it. Yeah, right, he thought, and poured the Martini into a crystal glass.

jimmy whished he was some kind of james bond, or at least a little hero. then he would have the girl AND might be able to survive all this. he put a little olive in the martini, which also reminded him of the movies. but on the other hand, why was she here? seduce him and kill him? starting to think about it, it made no sense. he knew he did something wrong. there was no need for disguise. what were they playing?

He did not know the rules of the game, but the organisation had forced him to play. He had no chance. He went back to the living-room and served the martini. "So, what are you here for? And, first of all, what is your name?" He had decided to be courageous, once in his life.

"so snappy? that's something new! but i am willing to give you almost every information you need. so ask as long as you want, i decide what or if i answer." she didn't seem disturbed. no sign of nervousness. how can she be so cold?
"ok let's start the interrogation. i asked for your name!"
"i am barbie smith, don't even think about laughing!" she fizzeled.

He tried not to smile, but... no way. He burst out laughing. She fixed him with her eyes and stared at him angrily. "Okay, next question. What are you doing here? Who sent you?" "That would be two questions, but, as you didn't laugh like others, I'll tell you." she answered.

jimmmy was astonished that she still offered him to answer his questions. he had laughed, but somehow she seemed to like him. maybe there was no need to be afraid of her.
"I am here to supervise you. I'm your partner now. The agency sent me to look after you, to make sure that you stay calm and that you fullfill your duty and the assignment. AND I am going to live here."

"Where? Here? With me? In my appartment?" Jimmy was stunned. He had never had a woman in his appartment for longer than one night. Living together with a beauty called Barbie Smith? Well, he started to like his profession as an agent. He smiled to himself. Who knows what will happen after the job is finished...

And his brother Dan, always bragging about how he could get any girl and Jimmy couldn't get any...that would show him!A voice disturbed his thoughts and put him back to the present.
"Where should I put my stuff?" Barbie asked.
