Lee Stetson wore a wide smile on his face while approaching the Q
door, but his step came to an abrupt halt when he heard Leatherneck's
voice in the room.
"I can't get it in the hole, Mrs. King, I don't know how Scarecrow
manage to work in such a tight spot."
"I'm not sure, but from what I saw he wiggle it a little and it is
working."
"Ok, let me try from the other side, maybe it is just an angle
problem."
"You're, right, the size it the same, I mean with what he use. I
don't like to do that but I really need what's there, and Lee isn't
here, so, I had to call you."
"I know Mrs. King, no problem, I'm sure ....."
At this point Lee was furious beyond any limits. How dare she asked
Leatherneck's help for that!!! What did she thought? He worked there,
for God sakes and he wasn't too late!
His thoughts and hand sprung at the same time and the door just
burst open. The Scarecrow enter full gear in the bureau.
But what he saw wasn't what he imagined. Leatherneck was kneeled
behind his desk, trying to open one of his drawers, and Amanda keep
giving him different lock picks.
What warm his heart beyond words, was the smile Amanda gave him,and
that was all he needed to forget all the anger.
