I reached my hand in the hole and pulled out a white package.
"Here"I held it outside of the hole for someone to take.
"Thats...not gold"John B said
I pulled myself up and jumped down back onto the ground.
"Holy shit"He mumbled as he flipped it over.
"This is from my dad"He told us
"How do you know"Pope asked
"He used to call me Bird"He said shining his light at it.
"Code Red.Code res.Square groupers"JJ said running to the other side of the burial stone.
"Is the guys who robbed your house"Pope asked panicking
We rushed behind the stone burial to hide.
"Light"I yelled trying to get the boys to turn off their lights.
I turned my flashlight off and watched John B struggle. He shoved it under his shirt but realized the fabrick wasn't thick enough to block out the light.After a few minuets he was finally able to find the power button.
"I see something"One of the men called out
"Homies got a gun"JJ said peering over the side of the stone
"Screw it"I said before running out of cover into the lights.
We all ran over to the gate and started to climb over the the fence.
"guys im stuck"Pope yelled
When I turned around,I saw that his pants were looped on one of the bars.
"Hold still Pope,"JJ said pointing the gun at him.
John B still hadn't climed over,so he help Pope get unstuck.In the process,his pants ripped.
"Its a little tootsie roll"JJ shouted at Pope.
John B got into the driver seat while I sat in the passenger seat.Everyone else sat in the back.
We rode back to John Bs house to open the package.
JJ was making a sandwhich on the counter while we all gathered around John B who was sitting at the table.
"That bread had mold on it three days ago"Pope mentioned
"Iʻll just pull off the bad parts,plus mold is good for you its just a nautral organisim"He said before taking a bite.
He chewed it for a few seconds then started looking around for a place to spit it.Meanwhile, John B opened the package and pulled out a map
"X marks the spot"Pope said pointing to an X marked on the map.
"Wait,there's something else here "John B said pulling a tape recodrder out
"what is it "Jj asked
"A tape recorder dumbass"I replied
John B hesitates before playing the tape.
'hate to say, "I told you so,"
but I told you so.
And you doubted your old man.
I suspect at this moment,
you're filled with guilt and self-loathing
over our last fight,
but don't kill yourself just yet, kid.
I didn't expect
to find the Merchant either.
You were probably right to call me out.
Wasn't exactly Father of the Decade.
What can I say, kid?
I could smell the barn.
And hopefully, we're listenin' to this
in our brand new sugar-shack
down in Costa Rica,livin' off passive investments
and pulling on permits.
If not, and you find this
for less than optimal reasons,
well, that's what the map is for.
There she is, the wreck of theMerchant.
If somethin' happens to me,
finish what I started.
Go for the gold, kid.
I love you, Bird,
even if I didn't always act like it.
Iʻll see you on the other side'
John B started silently sobbing.
"holy shit, he did it" JJ shouted"Big John found the Royal merchant"He continued
I shot JJ a look and he quickly stopped talking.
John B slid his chair back, stood up, and walked over to the back porch.
I followed him to the door way, and quickly hugged him from behind.He was covering his face like he didn't want anyone to see.
"Its okay"I whisped
The
"How much did you say it was?"Pope asked
"400 mil"John B answered
"Before we say evenly, may I remind you im the only one who can defend you from the groupers"
"you haven't trained"Pope reminded
"Youtube bro"JJ replied"thats a 5% bump up"
"you havent-"
"any objections"JJ asked.
Less then a second later he continued
"nope didnt think so"
"yeah"Pope said
"Nope I didnt hear any"
"what are you gonna do with your 100 mil
Pope?"I asked truing to get the two to stop talking.
"Pay for collage in advance and text books,those are expensive"
"I know what iʻll do"JJ started" I get a big ass house on figure 8, a marble statue of myself,and pond of coi fish."
"What would you do Y/n,I mean what does a rich socialist do with one hundred mill"JJ asked
"Live my own life I guess"I said
Everyone was quiet.
My eyes wandered to the railing where John B was sitting,occasionally taking sips of his beer.
"What would you do John B"I asked
He was quiet for a moment,but eventually flashed a sweet smile as he jumped off the railing.
"To full Kook?"
"Full Kook"We all said together.
