Chapter 34: Chapter 33

*Visiting the past*

K’Lavon pulled up at the warehouse next to Romeo’s car and looked around. After making sure that he was not followed, he walked over to the door and knocked three times. The door opened, and he came face to face with Cordell.

They clapped up, “Yo man, you took forever.”

K’Lavon nodded his head. “Yeah, Halo almost flipped me up. Did I miss out on anything?”

Cordell chuckled, “Nah, come in.”

Walking into the warehouse, K’Lavon put on gloves and looked around. He then walked over to Romeo who was sitting at a desk typing on a laptop while surrounded by guns.

Romeo looked over at him and smiled weakly. “Did Halo give you a tough time?”

K’Lavon nodded his head, “Man, that boy of yours is next level crazy. If looks could kill, I would be dead.”

“I know,” Romeo smirked, but felt sad within. He wanted to take Halo out and had a day planned for tomorrow, but with Cardinal phoning him to come in, he couldn’t.

“Since we were low on sales, we are being punished by her. Rama came over and said the boys from Landvil scored more than us so they are pushing our load too as we speak,” Romeo told him.

K’Lavon nodded his head, “We’d have sold all the product if that fool Gregg did not pass out during baseball practise, now no one from that team is buying.”

Romeo shrugged his shoulders, “Things will settle down, Jason is holding a party and already made a down payment, I’ve already informed Cardinal and she is pleased, I just wish he would have purchased our product before the cutting date and luckily for us, Cardinal is reasonable and just made us do stock-taking.”

K’Lavon chuckled and sat down beside him. Romeo told him what was done already and let him take over.

He got up and went out back to the greenhouse where the weed was growing.

“So you finally came to see me!” A high-pitched voice sang, making Romeo wince.

Romeo walked over to the boy and said, “Yeah, just to check in, how is your progress with the new strain?”

The boy skipped his way over to Romeo with a blunt in his hand and lit it up, he handed the blunt over to Romeo and said, “I’m going into surgery soon so I can’t test it out, how about you tell me.”

Romeo raised a brow as he took the blunt. He pulled on it and it hit hard quickly. He exhaled, “Phew! Shit, this is good!”

“I know, right?! Soon I will supply four cities with this strain and as per the agreement, I will get sixty percent for the next three months to pay for my surgeries,” the boy stated proudly with a glow in his eyes.

Romeo gazed over at him and said, “So you are seriously going for this surgery thing?”

“Well yes,” he nodded his head. “It’s about time I get it done, since my parents won’t pay my medical bills.”

Romeo put out the blunt and nodded his head, “Well good luck and don’t die. Don’t expect to not work once you’ve healed.”

He nodded his head cheerfully and said, “So, I’ll be packing samples for Cardinal. Will you take it?”

Romeo nodded his head. “Yeah, make sure it’s ready by eight tonight.” He went out and could feel that his head was buzzing and that was just from one puff, they would make millions out of this and that drug expert in the greenhouse was next level, he would definitely make a lot of money for his contributions and if it reaches international, the mob would be hit by the FBI but, that is not his problem.

Mitchel went back to his seat and looked at the dry leaves. He narrowed his eyes and thought, ‘It’s too strong, maybe if I half it... but that won’t stop anyone from overdoing it.’ He narrowed his eyes and smiled. “That is not for me to decide.”

He packed everything up and took his lab coat off. He walked out with the box in hand and handed it to Romeo, who was counting money, and said, “Here is your gift.”

Romeo looked up at him and said, “Cardinal said she’ll send you your money early because you have some doctor to see tomorrow.”

Mitchel nodded his head. “She did say something like that.”

Romeo nodded slowly then asked, “How much Nuse do you think you can produce before heading into surgery?”

Mitchel shook his head. “Not enough for two months.”

“And you do not want to give your recipe away, right?” Romeo asked.

Mitchel nodded his head. “Yeah, Cardinal said I shouldn’t trust anyone with it, especially since we are the only supplier of Nuse.”

“Have you ever thought about what if you were killed on the street?” Romeo asked him.

Mitchel shook his head. “No one knows who I am, only you three, Cardinal and the big boss.”

“But that does not stop the big boss from trying to one-up Cardinal. Everyone knows, including him, that Cardinal is strong. He could choose someone to end you just so that he could put pressure on Cardinal. I am giving you a day to consider giving up the recipe to me. I will find someone trustworthy to cook it up. Neither will they know who you are nor will you know them unless both parties want to and this is to keep the other party safe and out of arm’s reach.” Romeo explained to him and he could see that Mitchel was considering this.

Mitchel nodded his head and said, “I trust you, Romeo, and I have a person in mind, but I do not think you would be happy with who I have in mind.”

Romeo nodded his head slowly and looked at Cordell and K’Lavon, who took the hint and left them alone.

Romeo got up from his seat and let Mitchel sit down. He stood beside him and asked, “So, who do you have in mind, Misty?”

Mitchel blushed and almost squealed and said, “I feel so stupid getting excited at the sound of that name.”

Romeo chuckled, shaking his head. “You shouldn’t think that you are stupid. It’s what you’ve wanted since you were little and you are finally going to get your wish, Miss Rosales.”

Mitchel squealed into his hand, then calmed down. He looked up at Romeo with a smile on his face and said, “I have someone in mind.”

“I’m listening,” Romeo said.

“You mentioned your boyfriend is a baker, and it takes one cook to trust another,” Mitchel stated.

Romeo stared at him and did not know what to say. Mitchel could see the conflict in his eyes and explained, “I could have given the recipe to Bishop, but Cardinal wouldn’t allow it. I do not know anyone other than those two. The only person I can give it to is him, Romeo. I am sure that you trust Halo and as you said, Halo will be protected by you. I did my research on him and his father is deep in the mob too, and Cardinal’s personal lawyer. They make the cases disappear as soon as they come and I know you will let nothing happen to Halo.”

“I’ll think about it,” Romeo said, and let her leave.

Romeo rubbed his forehead as he felt a headache start and shook his head with a smirk.
