Magic

Chapter 29

Kirsnick 'takeoff' Ball

She got back out the car and went into the house, but I didn't leave. I sat there for a moment just thinking. The key to my freedom was sitting in the back seat of my car. After I take this stupid shit to Lavelle I'm gonna be free from him for good. He won't have any reason to bother me any fucking more.

I sat out in front of his club waiting until it was time for me to get there. Excuse me for being excited about getting rid of this nigga once and for all but he likes to keep things on a schedule so I could get there early because that would do nothing but piss him off. When it was time I grabbed the bag and went inside.

I found him sitting at his desk waiting for me to come. He was clambering for the bag like a little his on Christmas when I walked through the door. He ripped open the bed and pulled out what was inside. Two of the biggest bricks I had ever seen and a bottle with a note attached. It looked like a bottle of water, why the fuck would she send him a bottle of water. He looked at the note with a raised eyebrow and made a face which told me he didn't know why it was in there either.

" Crazy islanders, what the hell I need coconut water for? after all this time you finally made yourself useful," he said. "I'm gonna be rich, well richer than I already I am."

"So, we good. I don't have to worry about you calling me to work no more?" I asked him.

He opened the bottle and took a swig from it before making another face. "the shit is nasty." He said without answering me.

"So, we even now right?" I asked him.

"Yeah kid, you straight." He sat back in his chair and smiled. "hey, you remember when-"

He stopped. He just stopped right in the middle of his sentence like somebody had pressed pause on his with a remote. He fell forward like a dead weight. His head smacked against the top of his desk loudly. I took a step back and looked over to the two men that stood behind me guarding the door.

"What the fuck. What the fuck. What th-"

that stood behind me guarding the door.

"what the fuck. What the fuck. What the-"

"calm down," called a familiar voice. I turned around again and that's when I noticed that one of the men standing behind me was someone that I knew. "this was supposed to happen." He removed his shades and that when I knew where I had seen him before. This was the same big goon that had thrown my phone in the bucket of water. The one that worked for Jade.

"What's goin on?" I asked him.

"Jade is.... expanding her business into the states and she doesn't need people like him getting in her way." He said.

"so, you poisoned him with water?" I asked.

"no, that's a bottle of liquid meth. A rather expensive way of getting rid of him when we could have just shot him but I don't run things around here. She does." He said.

"but I'm still good to go right?" I asked. "I wasn't supposed to-"

He pulled his phone from his pocket and started playing with the screen before he handed it to me. "hello?" I said into the phone.

"you have served your purpose Mr. Ball you are free to go," Jade said on the phone.

"and I don't have to worry about working anymore. I'm free for good?" I asked.

"go enjoy your life with the pretty girl, what's her name? Megan?"

"Maggie," I replied.

"go, live your life, and do right by her. You owe her that much." She said.
