Let the Music Play

Nikki Armstrong Bahama Bound

By: Vinny Green

Narrated by: Jacqueline MRobinson

"Is it your plan to lay in the bed until the goddamn rapture? I mean, c’mon, so you took a hit, life goes on. Let's not forget, through it all, you are still Nikki Evelyn Armstrong. A decorated veteran honored by two counties. The recipient of multiple citations and awards for enforcement of the law, with dignity, honor, and integrity. You are a walking, breathing, recognized American hero. So, my dear sister, why don’t you act like it?”

Nikki opened her eyes ever so slightly. With a touch of sleep crust still in the corner of her eye, and sleepiness resting comfortably in her voice, she lovingly whispered to her sister, “Get out of my room, witch.”

With a growl, Makala responded, “Oh so it's like that, I see. It’s your plan to take your woes out on me?”

Nikki pulled her covers over her head. “Close the door on your way out. That would be now, please!”

Makala’s response was, “Such a bitch.” and left the room.
