Sucker

I should have known. Why didn't I see it coming? Mikey is a notorious liar, I know that. I'm just a sucker I guess. He seemed sincere and so sad. He said that he was in trouble and some guys were going to kill him. That much I thought he probably wasn't lying about. Mikey's that kind of guy. He said that he owed them money. Probably also true. He said that all he needed was two thousand dollars, that's all. I was a sucker, I gave it to him. The next week, I saw Mikey in a brand new suit, new leather shoes, and a new tattoo on his neck. I should have known.
