"No problem, but your friends here didn’t leave me with any choice." Mr. Elgin turned to Jamaica. "You should teach your men some manners, you know. Respect for their elders would help, maybe."

Mike stepped in front of Jamaica’s men. "You will show this man respect. The same respect you show me."

"Yah mon, respect, no," they echoed as Mike turned his attention to Mr. Elgin.

"Please accept my apology for their disrespect, Mr. Elgin," Mike said as the two walked away together. "These young boys don’t have any respect for anything except power and money."

"Not like the old days, you know. Back then, you show a mon respect until he proved himself unworthy of that respect. But under the given circumstances, I understand."

"Tell me what you saw."

"I was down by the docks earlier today when I heard some commotion. When I look, I see your wife on the ground. Two men were standing above her. She didn’t appear to be hurt. As I think back, I believe that she was trying to get my attention."

"What makes you think that?"

"Because when I turn to see, she was looking at me the entire time. As they drag her to she feet, she continue to look at me. And I am sure she mouth the words help me. When I move closer, I hear her ask ‘where are you taking me?’ The white man say they were taking a little trip to Miami."

"Are you sure about that?"

"I may be an old mon and not worthy of young mon’s respect, but I can still hear."

"Did you recognize the men?"

"No. I never see them before."

"What they look like, Mr. Elgin?"

"I didn’t get a really good look, but as I say, one was white and the other was of Latin descent. It appeared that he was hurt. I say this because him move slow and hold his stomach the whole time."

"Anything else you can tell me about them?"
