O.J

"Im not going to go. You and Teddy going to New York alone with the rest of the family is a good thing. Especially, road tripping it. And I promise that once you get back we will handle the thing with Teddy." Olly told me as I sat across from him at the table off Brick Ave. I met him for lunch. We was suppose to be catching a flight to NY for Thanksgiving. Its the first time in a long time since the entire fam would be together. However, Olly has been in a one on one fight with life and life is dragging him for fucking filth. He was the only real reason I was going to go, but our flight got canceled due to weather and now we are road tripping. Teddy and I.

"I feel set up." I confessed before picking up my spoon from my Clam Chowder bowl.

"Oh please they all miss you and will love you. I told Pops that I have an elective surgery on a public figure and I cant miss it." Olly told me and I exhaled.

"Its my first REAL holiday since I got out and you wont be there. Not gonna lie im salty. But with all this Teddy mess, I feel you." I told him trying to show him I am in his corner. Olyver has been fucked ever since I told him. He literally slept cuddled to my damn arm. I just have to be here for him, its weird that now our roles in eachother lives have flipped. I guess it is my turn. The waiter walked over and asked did we want anything else and Olly stated, "The check—." He looked over at me and said, "I have to get to Whole Foods to find a damn Organic Turkey. Sven and Maddie doesnt eat Regular turkey like Q and I. They are closing early before the snow falls tonight. You need to get to Teddy school and head out before that traffic. I got the check you can go." I slid my hand into my pocket and slid 150 on the table.

"Its on me." I told him. He started clapping and he exhaled, "Yassss when the big brother can finally take care of the bill." I stuck the middle finger at him and he joked, "Ohhh I knew you always wanted me." I sucked my teeth as he stood up. I followed suit and we hugged.

"I love you bro. Ill call you once we hit the road and when we get to the Manor....never thought Ill be back at the damn place." I told him as we laughed.

"Ohh please you was raised there. It will be all too familiar." He told me to reassure me.

"One more thing—." I said it as I looked at him and into his eyes. I rubbed his hair back and continued, "Dont leave him alone on Thanksgiving. Make him a plate or what-not and take it to him." He knew who I was talking about. Zoie. I have been living in the house with him and see how Olly being gone has affected him. Its fucked up.

Grimm.

"How the fuck did you find it?" I asked Aaron. I closed my office door and he replied, "Easily. My connect got friends in high places. Im on my way to pick you up. This needs to be done tonight."

"No—ill meet you at your house. You picking me up here aint a good look." I told him as he sucked his teeth and laughed, "You are funny and scary as fuck...leave now nigga." He banged it on me and I stared over at ATF Gerald Williams.

"So its on for sure. Just follow behind us, but he takes lots of precaution, so be careful. But it should all be good." I told him. Thats right, I picked my job and freedom over my brother..so this agent thinks. Im going to give him a signal to switch the plan. Get both of the good ends of this plan and still make it to dinner with Carolina and Olly.

Suddenly, my phone buzzed and it was a message from Carolina.

"Stuck in this meeting. Wont be able to meet him tonight. Sorry. Reschedule it." I read it and Agent Williams must have seen my face because he asked was everything good.
