October 12th 8:45 p.m.

Angelo was sitting at a table surrounded with people who worked for him along with "Zeek" sitting in front of him. They were currently discussing the new shipments that came from Cuba. Angelo counted the amount of bags that were full of "ecstasy" it had his logo on the pills.

After he placed the last pack of drugs in the box he sealed it sliding the box over to one his workers for him to send it to shipping. Angelo looked up before he spoke while everyone gave him their attention.

"I need one of y'all to go separate the Xanax pills and place them in those bags."

After his workers stated their response, Angelo's phone begin to ring. He took it out of his pocket seeing the babysitters contact name across his screen. He then slide his fingers on the screen answering it.

"Hello?"

("Um, Mr, Angelo we have an emergency it's concerning Tori." The babysitter said on the side of the phone.)

Before the babysitter could finish her whole sentence, Angelo quickly hung up the phone rushing out making his way to his car. His heart started to race of the thought that something was wrong with his daughter. He sped out the drive way making the tires screech onto the road.

Angelo arrived at the babysitters house seeing her porch light was on, the babysitter was an old lady who kept kids for young adults who worked late hours. She wasn't aware who Angelo was deep within or the work he does. He hopped out of the car slamming the car door walking up to the front porch, literally pounding on her door waiting for the babysitter to answer.

He could hear the door unlocking and it opened, Angelo was greeted by the babysitter she slightly smiled at him. Tori's face lit up when she saw her father she ran over and gave him the biggest hug she could give him, Angelo kissed her forehead and hugged her back making the babysitter frown.

"Tori, I thought you said you were sick."

Angelo placed Tori on her feet onto the floor while she made a guilty looking face, it made her father wonder what was wrong he gently rubbed his hand across her forehead and the side of her face checking to see if she had a fever but there was no sign of it.

Tori didn't respond to her babysitter instead she ignored her by looking down at her feet while she turned red in the face. The babysitter saw it and became frighten.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't know she was allergic to cheese." Angelo glanced at Tori then back at the babysitter he was very confused, after a few seconds of thinking his frowned instantly turned into a straight face. He was furious with Tori he did not like it when she told lies.

Angelo slowly looked down at Tori who was still looking down at her shoes. "Tori, you're allergic to cheese?"

Tori didn't answer at first which made her father even more upset with her, he gently lifted her face up with his index finger making her give him eye contact. "Look at me when I'm talking to you. Are you allergic to cheese?"

Tori looked in her father's eyes and shook her head no as she mumbled her answer. Angelo flared his nostrils up giving Tori an angry look which gave his daughter the sign of he wasn't going to ask again.
