"Who are they, Jan?" shouted the captain.
"Please don't patronize me. You know bloody hell what I'm saying." Jan's rage, his blood-shot eyes focused on trying to convince his captain and co-workers that the leaders of the ANC were responsible for the death of his father.
"But Jan, who are the leaders? If we knew their identities, I would personally arrest them myself."
Jan tapped twice with his finger on a pack of Kools and pulled out a cigarette. He lit up, took a long drag, and slowly exhaled towards the captain.
The captain arched his eyebrow and frowned at Jan.
"I will not rest until I have made those people pay dearly for what they have done. I don't care how long it takes. I will follow every lead and trail from here to kingdom come. Believe me captain, I will make them pay." Jan turned and walked away.
