Chapter 32

We walked towards Yaphank talking about the close calls we had, the good times and the hard times. Mostly we talked about our future. Sarah decided to resign from the FBI, that is after we were cleared of all charges. She was going to be my new partner.

I wondered if Mr. Blue would hold the loss of his weapons against me. There was the choice of moving, maybe to San Francisco. I had grown up in the Big Apple and this is all I knew. I would really miss this city, but if Sarah needed me to move I would.

Do you know anything about anything that happened there?" Sarah and I laughed until we cried. Finally we were able to stop laughing, stare him in the eyes and shake our heads. After that we started laughing again. He just shook his head and tucked us in the back of the squad car. He looked at us in the rear view mirror. "The FBI is now closed.
