THE DEADLY BLACK ROSE 46

Mama Mex: So! You wake up at last! I hope you slept well hulio – you still snore like a drunken warthog! Hulio: What? I didn’t know … it’s been a long time since …. I didn’t disturb you too much? Mama Mex: Don’t worry Hulio. I got used to it with my late husband! Hulio: (thinks) She remembers how I snore? Hell I must have made an impression back in the days in El Passo! Mama Mex: Now, I make you some breakfast – then you should go to see Wilbur and get yourself a job in his garage. Hulio: You mean as a mechanic? Well I’ve got the papers as a legal immigrant – all ‘Trump proof’ but is he looking for staff? Mama Mex: Yes Hulio, as a mechanic. I know Wilbur needs some help. He doesn’t want to work so much since his grandson got killed. Later that morning …. Hulio: So, you’re happy with the papers? I can have a job here Mr Bumcrackson? Wilbur: That’s all good Hulio, welcome to the team! Be good to have someone else who’ll know how to keep the Mayor’s Edsel running! Hulio: Thank you sir! Hulio work hard for you on all cars but I love to work on an Edsel again – like my old days in El Passo! Wilbur: I’ll be glad of the help – and we ain’t formal here in Bumcrack, so call me Wilbur!
