Chew You Up

by Bill Bernico

Jake has invited his friend, Dave to come and visit him in New York City, but Dave is afraid of the seedier element in The Big Apple. Dave finally relents and agrees to meet Jake at his hotel room downtown. Jake suggests a ride on the subway to show Dave that there's nothing to be afraid of. And to accent his point, Jake gives Dave his .32 caliber revolver for added protection. What could possibly go wrong? Will the city chew him up and spit him out? Let's see what happens.
