In Too Deep Book 1( Urban)

Part 16

Zoo and Ava..

"Breaking News"
"A private jet carrying three passengers has crashed near the Historic Museum of Art. "One dead at the scene and two have been reported to be in critical condition". We have not release the names of the victims yet, but it has been confirmed that one of the victims was a former police officer for Sheridan County. "Investigators are still working to get information on how this happened."

Me and Zoo walked into Mr.Antonio's office and sat quietly as we waited for our commands. Mr. Antonio was standing in the middle of his office holding the remote control in one hand and a lit cigar in the other. Shocked to see us, he quickly changed the channel and began talking to us immediately."So what's up kids you like the money that you're making". He asked looking us both in the eyes with the same devious smile he always wore.
We both nodded but, honestly I found myself getting comfortable doing it. I guess it was the bad girl inside of me that I always wanted to get out or maybe because Mr. Antonio paid me and Zoo pretty good. We were teenagers already sitting on stacks of cash. I could have easily worked for him and stayed in school but, we both choose to quit school altogether and work for Mr. Antonio full time . Yeah I know that's a pretty stupid decision but hey, money was pouring in like a tsunami. My parents pretty much gave up on trying to keep me on lock down and eventually kicked me out. It was so many times I just wanted to tell them what was going on, but after spending my time around Zeus father and his entourage, it put me in a state of fear where I would never want to be disloyal, besides I was now family.
"Zoo I need you to go and pick up some money from the green house Mr. Antonio demanded.
"Ok cool, I'm on it." "You rolling with me ?" He looked at me and asked.
"You know it" I said.
Mr. Antonio tossed Zoo the keys to his truck, gave us the details on the pick up, and then we hit the front door.
On our way to the green house I starred out the window thinking about everything that has happened. A shy girl now on the arm of the son of a king pin. I thought to myself.
Then Zeus broke the silence. "Ava, you alright"? He questioned as he reached for my hand.
"Yeah I'm good" . Just riding". I replied.
"How's your family, they good?" He asked.
"What family?" I as nonchalantly.
"Ava have you been going home"? Zoo said as reached to turn down the radio.
"My father put me out Zoo". Why do you think I've been back and forth between you and Katrina house", I said with my arms folded.
"What happened." I thought you were going to keep what's going on the low.", he shot back.
"And I did". My father ain't stupid Zoo alright".
"I've been meaning to ask you this question since all of this crazy shit has been going down"
"Wassup. I asked.
"Why would your father allow you to even date me if he knew about my fucked up father?." He asked with his face balled up.
"Honestly I don't know, I think it's deeper then everything we know bae."
"Bae?" He questioned. "So I'm your baby now?" "Where did that come from"? He said smiling.
"You've been my baby since day one." I added.
We stopped at a red light then Zoo took off his seat belt and leaned over to kiss me. "I love you". He uttered.
"I love you too baby" his kiss sent chills up my spine and made me want more. Just when he was about to put back on his seat belt I snatched him by the collar of his shirt and tongued him down. Our tongue wrestling ended when a car got behind us, honking for us to go.

The green house.

The green house was ducked off in a odd part of town. It was fenced off with barb wires along the top and beware of dog signs posted in the front yard. The shit looked pretty creepy if you ask me.
Zoo hit the buzzard and spoke into the speaker.
"Who dis"the man spoke into the speaker.
"Zoo"
"Zoo who"? He said laughing.
"Man open up the door". Zoo shouted.
"It's open he said still laughing.
Zoo looked at the the camera that pointed down at us then throw up the middle finger. A bald, heavy set man opened the door. The way him and Zoo communicated told me that they knew each other.
"

"I see Antonio got you working the green house" the man said as we entered the house.
"And I see he got you working "in" the green house". Zoo said sarcastically.
"Whatever," he said as he motioned for us to follow him.

I followed really close behind Zoo cause it looked more creepy in here then it did out front. All of the lights we dimmed hanging down from the ceiling.
"Here y'all gon need these, the man said as he handed us face masked.
Me and Zoo looked at each crazy then, slipped the masked over our faces and continued following him towards the back.
The further we went the more cloudy the room seem to get.
"What the fuck is in here, Zoo questioned as he tried to clear the air with his hands.
"Welcome to The Green House". The man shouted with pride.
The shit looked like something off of Scarface. The room was full of naked women bagging and cooking up coke.
I stood there in shock. All I could think about is, this shit just got real.
"Alright kids come with me."
We followed him down some stairs that lead to another door. The man knocked on the door twice before opening it. I guess it was some type of knock code. Once we were in, our eyes lit up like we just struck gold. Money machines were clicking everywhere, big trash bags and boxes were stacked to the ceiling with nothing but money.
"Now this is really why Antonio call it The Green house" he said to us smiling from ear to ear.
"I see" Zoo replied as he scanned the room.
"Here, be careful not to break your back the man said as he handed Zoo two duffle bags filled with cash.
