ELEVEN

Tony

The next day, during the four hours in the afternoon we had together between shifts at Pizza Pizza, her brother Andre came over to her apartment to talk with us. He had resisted at first, but she insisted, invoking that familial bond between siblings. I paced nervously in her tiny kitchen while she sat at the table and watched me.

“Will you sit down, please? You’re making me nervous.”

“Nervous is good,” I said, sitting down across from her. “It keeps you from getting caught.”

She shook her head, frowning. “I know you have your mom’s debt, but if she lost the money gambling, she should have to take care of it herself.”

“Did you really just ask me to forget about helping my mother?” I asked.

“No, but you’re not alone anymore. The children come with me. We’re a package.”

“I know, Tanesha. It’s just…”

We both turned when we heard someone knocking on the front door.

“It’s him,” she said, standing up. “I’ll get it.”

A moment later, she returned with her brother.

“Hey, Andre,” I said from the table without getting up.

He nodded his head at me. “What’s up? You think about what I said?”

“Threatening me?” I stood up. “Yeah, I did.”

We stood inches from each other again.

“Knock it off, you two,” Tanesha said. “Andre, we have an idea.”

I stepped back, still watching him.

“Yeah? As long as it involved him leaving you, I’m okay with it.”

“Stop it,” she insisted. “I love both of you. Now get along.”

“What’s your idea?” he asked, looking at me.

“If you leave me alone, I’ll give you evidence on the Colorado Weed Mafia.”

“Why should I trust you?”

“Because I trust him,” Tanesha said. “Come on, ‘Dre.”

“Go on,” he said, stilling staring me down.

“What else is there to say?” I shook my head. “It’s pretty simple, even for a dumb cop like you.”

“Tony,” Tanesha hissed under her breath.

I raised my hands in the air. “I’m trying.”

“I don’t think it’s a good idea,” Andre said, surprising me.

“Yeah? Why not?” I asked, leaning against the sink counter.

“I just don’t think it is a good idea.”

I crossed my arms over my chest. Tanesha walked over and stood next to me.

“That’s crazy, Andre. He’s willing to help you bust these guys as long as he has immunity.”

“I can’t offer him that.”

“Just what I thought,” I said. “He’s a chump with no power on the force.”

“Watch it, buddy,” her brother said, tensing up.

“There’s way too much testosterone in here right now,” Tanesha said, walking over to a cupboard. She opened a door and pulled out a bottle of wine. “We’re all going to have a drink and settle down.”

“I don’t drink wine,” I insisted. “I’m a smoker.”

“Well, you’re going to have a drink now with me.”

Andre cracked a smile as he looked at me. “She’s something else, ain’t she?”

I nodded, smiling myself as the tension in the room dissipated.

“I can’t stay long,” Andre said. “But I’ll think about what you said and talk to my captain.”

“I’m willing to work with you,” I said. “As long as everyone is safe.”

“You’re not very safe right now,” he said.
