100 words - Forward One

“Forward One.” Boomed Ada, the manager of the Leather Goods store, in an upscale London shopping district, and one of the timid sales girls hurried forward to help the notably tattooed man who’d just entered the store. He asked to see a fine, brown leather wallet, for a gift. She ushered him into the back section, laid out several wallets on the counter and as he bent forward to admire them, she reached out and quickly drove a hypodermic needle into his upper arm. He lost consciousness almost immediately. There was a special on tanned, tattooed beige wallets, next week.
