Bullet in the Brain
This short story sets the scene in a bank where Anders is in line behind two women. He seems to be in a hurry because he gets a temper standing behind the women. One of the tellers had closed her line so Anders became angry. The next thing that happened was two men wearing black ski masks came in and held them all at gunpoint. The man in the mask had called all of the tellers over telling the one woman to fill the bag with money. Anders commented on her filling the bag and then the man in the mask told him to stop talking. He moved his pistol over Anders' body ending under his chin. While looking at the ceiling Anders remarked on the ceiling and its intricate paintings. Because Anders laughed the man said he would kill him if he messed with the man in the mask. He laughed again because the man said capiche and he immediately shot him. The next part was about the bullet and how it went through the brain in detail. He then went over what he wasn't thinking of before he died. He remembered a baseball field and a boy saying they is.
