"That's, not gold." Pope said as Evie handed us a fedex envelope.
"Holy shit. This was from dad."
John B whispered while looking at the envelope. Everyone looked at him happily as Evie tiredly leaned against JJ, who was blowing out smoke from his mouth.
"Shit, JJ look." Evie said softly as she pointed to the cars that were coming our way. "Code red, code red, square groupers! Square groupers!" JJ said and they all started to run away.
"It's the guys that robbed your house." JJ said while dragging Evie with him, since she was too tired to properly run.
They hid behind one of the gravestones as they all hurriedly turned off our lights.
"Can you see it's them?" Kiara asked JJ as he looked at the men.
"Homie's got a gun." JJ said.
"Screw this" Kiara said and they all ran away quickly and headed to the gate. "I can't climb up there!"
Evie yelled, John B walked over to her and quickly gave me a boost. "Thanks JB."
Evie whispered as she jumped off the gate. They all quickly ran further but then Pope got stuck.
JJ almost shot at him, but John B pilled the gun away. "Just rip your pants pope come on!" Evie said.
John B pulled him down, making his pants hang on the gate, which left him in his underwear. Evie laughed quietly and continued running as JJ grabbed her hand.
"It's a little tootsie roll." John B laughed as well all hopped into the van laughing.
Kie Pope and Evie got into the backseat, Pope quickly hiding is manly parts with his hands. As they drove away fast.
They returned to Evie's and John B's house, Evie sat down on a chair next to John B, who looked desperate to find out what was in the envelope.
"That bread had mold on it 3 days ago." Pope said to JJ who got himself a peanut butter sandwich.
"yeah I'll just pull off the bad parts, plus mold is good for you, it's just a natural organism" JJ responded.
"You are truly disgusting." Evie said when JJ walked over to them. He stood behind her with the molded sandwich in his hands. "Hot damn, let's do it."
JJ said as they all looked at the envelope. He took a bite of the sandwich and gagged, almost dropping it on her face. "Ew, throw that away!" I said I was disgusted by the boy. He walked away and spitted the bread out into his hands as he threw it away.
Evie scrunched up her nose and looked back to John B.
He opened it up and revealed a map, they looked at it for a while as they spotted an X, Pope tried to figure out what it meant. "There's something else in it."
John B said as he pulled something else out of the envelope.
it was a recorder.
"what's that?" JJ asked.
"it's a tape recorder dumbass" Evie said while smacking her forehead.
John B started playing the tape and we all got quiet.
"dear bird," "who's bird?" JJ said.
"that's what dad called JB ." Evie said.
"i hate to say I told you so, but I told you so. and you doubted your old man. I suspect that 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 listening 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 optinial reasons well, that's what the map is for. there she is, the wreck of the merchant. if something 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. I'll see you on the other side. "
