CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

Black received a call on Bobby’s phone from Eddie Domingas, letting him know that Cruz Villanueva was having dinner at La Caridad Restaurant on West Kingsbridge Road. When the call came Black, along with Bobby and Wanda were at a meeting with their financial advisor, Meka Brazil. She was discussing offshore investment possibilities for the group to consider.

"There’s a company that makes multimedia switching gear for cable companies that recently received certification for its Safari C3 product line in Russia, through the Ministry of Communications."

"That sounds promising," Wanda said.

"It has the potential to be. Especially when you consider Eastern Europe has a ways to go in terms of communications infrastructure to catch up with the rest of the world, any long-term investment represents a significant opportunity," Meka said. "Then there’s wind."

"Wind?" Bobby asked.

"The United States, Russia and Canada have the greatest capacity for wind power. In the Kola Peninsula in the Murmansk region. The problem is that a lot of the area available for wind power in Russia is far from major cities. As the business capability in the region improves and construction of new transmission lines moves forward, those companies can begin servicing some of the major cities. "

"It’s something for us to think about," Black said. That’s when Eddie called and Black and Bobby left.

When they got to La Caridad they spotted Cruz seated at a table with another man and two women, having dinner.

"That’s him. Come on," Black said, and he and Bobby started for Cruz. As they got closer a man stepped out to block their path. "Where you think you’re going?"

"Over there," Black said and pointed at Cruz.

The man put his hand on Black’s chest to stop him. "Nobody goes back there," he said.

"Okay." Black grabbed the man’s arm then twisted it behind his back. Black tightened his grip. "You tell Cruz that Mike Black and Bobby Ray would like a few minutes of his time," Black said and let go of the man’s arm and pushed him toward Cruz.

The man walked away shaking his arm as he went. He went to Cruz’s table and whispered in his ear. When he pointed in their direction, Cruz looked up and saw Black and Bobby standing there.

"Shit," Cruz said and leaned close to his partner Jorge. "What the fuck they doin’ here?"

"I don’t know," Jorge said.

"Let them come," Cruz said, and the man went to get Black and Bobby. When he got close to them he signaled for them to follow him.

Cruz saw them coming. "Stay close," he said to Jorge, and he and the women got up from the table.

"Hello, ladies," Bobby said to them as they passed. Both ladies smiled and kept walking.

Black and Bobby got to the table just as the busboy came to clear it. Black and Cruz looked at one another. No one moved or said a word as the busboy did his work. When he was finished and left the table, Black and Bobby sat down. Jorge stood next to the table.
