Anika stirred and began to regain consciousness, her head lolled from side to side which Zeleny reached up and held with one hand.
The car turned and her body went with the motion. Zeleny found himself wedged in beside her now waking body as he kept her from flopping around the seat. Praza kept his eye in the rear view mirror to try to keep the turns as mellow as possible but there was only so much he could do in the city.
The car slowed to a stop at the curb next to Zeleny’s apartment and Praza stopped it before they climbed out. Zeleny pulled Anika from the car and she halfway got her feet under her but he still carried most of her weight. Praza pulled the trunk release and Tesar pulled the chair out and opened it to slide in behind Anika. Zeleny lowered her down into it and they pushed her through the doors and to the elevator.
The key slid into the lock smoothly and they were soon in his apartment. Praza pushed her chair in the door then Zeleny took it and pushed her down the short hall to the bedroom. He soon had her laying on the bed as she became more coherent.
“Where, where…?” she asked as her eyes began to focus. Praza stood in the door and watched as she fought to pull herself into soberness, her eyes tried hard to focus but continued to wallow.
“Just go, I’ll get her settled then be out,” Zeleny said over his shoulder.
Praza nodded slightly then turned and pulled the door mostly closed behind him. He walked back to the main room and raised his eyes to Tesar. The look made him wince as he had the feeling it was not going to be an easy time getting out of the apartment.
“I’m going to move the car to the garage,” Praza said as he opened the apartment door.
Tesar nodded then flopped onto a chair to wait.
Praza walked out the building entrance to see a man throw a bag through the broken window of the car. He stalked towards the car and pulled the driver door open to reveal a pile of garbage tossed on the seat and floor.
“Shithole city’s full of assholes,” he mumbled to himself as he used his arm to sweep the garbage from the seat out onto the sidewalk. He picked the bottles and cans from the floor and tossed them out before he climbed in and drove the car to the parking garage.
He found a parking spot with the drive’s side next to a wall to limit the chance of someone seeing the broken windows. As he got out of the car he looked over the seats for anything that could be stolen but there was nothing but some garbage in the back seat.
The garage was dimly lit with lights scattered down the line of parking spaces. He had parked at the top of the row and he looked down to see a car with a cover over it. A quick glance at the broken windows then around the garage he walked quickly to the cover and swept it off the vehicle. Beneath sat an Aston Martin with British plates, which he paused and looked over before turning and drug the cover to his car. He threw the cover up and over the car and worked to pull the edges down until they hid the color of the car.
