I never liked the term "hitman." I saw myself more as a "problem solver." I relieved people of burdens that weighed so heavily upon them. It was simple: respond to my cryptic ad in the classified section of the newspaper, then a series of phone calls, and then the meeting.
A woman said she wanted her husband killed. I told her Kelly's Bar & Grill. She said she'd be in a white dress with a red veiled hat, sitting at a corner table.
I saw her from across the bar. Imagine my surprise when I realized it was my wife.

It's a cracker, Christopher. You fooled me!

Good twist. (Strange outfit for this kind of meeting.)

Thanks, Neville.
Dr, revealing that would violate the client confidentiality clause!
Anna Maria and Melanie, maybe they can go to couples therapy.
D.M., she wanted to stand out. If she had a T-shirt and jeans on and 25 women in the bar were dressed the same, he couldn't exactly go around asking them all, "Are you the lady that wants me to kill her husband?" ;)

You crack me up. There are other ways a woman could be noticed without
looking so obvious. Having a distinctive shopping bag for example, like a purple
Liberty bag, or, Marks and Spencer? Wouldn't he recognize his own wife's hat?
Mere suggestions...

My apologies, mate. Soured milk in the coffee this morning. Now I'm bound to notice a woman in a white dress and red veiled hat at the bar this week...

That's okay, D.M. I toyed with the idea of having her reading a certain book, but I was running out of word space. As far as his wife's wardrobe goes, I would assume that he's probably dealt with so many women as clients that a specific style of clothing that his wife happened to own never registered with him. And she may have secretly bought it to wear in celebration after she had him bumped off and she was just trying to break it in a little!

You know what they say, "Once bitten, twice printed!"
