The next morning after helping Bob, I return to a locked door at the red barn. I shake the handle and pound a few times. Cinch peeks through the blinds. Opening the door, he ushers me inside and locks it. The lock box is open on the table with the digital scale and empty bags next to it. He reaches in his pocket and hands me a wad of cash. “This is for all the help lately.”

“No way.” I extend it back toward him. “Between what I flushed and what I’ve used, we’re even.”

“Consider it an advance,” he says. “Things are going to start getting busy.”

I thumb through the money. “There’s two hundred bucks here. That’s way too much. I just busted my ass for three hours for fifty.”

“What can I say? Life isn’t fair.” Cinch sits down and scoops a spoonful of coke onto the scale. “Also, I think I need another favor. I have to go to the mainland to meet my guy, and Haley has me booked all week.”

“Why doesn’t he just come here?”

“He doesn’t deliver,” Cinch says. “I was hoping you could make the run for me. It’s just in Cleveland. Would have Griffin do it, but I need someone I can trust. He always seems to fuck things like this up.”

His vote of confidence does little for my apprehension. I survived one scare. Do I want to go deeper so soon? I say, “I have to work all weekend, and I’m supposed to go out with Astrid Sunday night.”

Cinch counts the full packages next to him. “We’re good through the weekend. You can leave Monday morning and come back that night or Tuesday.”

I remain silent. This is a whole other level.

“I already checked with my guy. He’s totally cool with it.” He scrapes the last spoonful out of the bag onto the scale. “If it’s too much to ask, I understand.”

My gut tells me no, but I feel obligated. Right or wrong, we’re in this together. I nod at him. “I can do it. Might be good to get off the island for a day.”

“Exactly. You’re new to the area. No one will suspect anything.” Cinch flips me a package. “For the weekend.”
