When she stood up, I knew what was getting ready to happen, but I didn’t stop her because it was time for them to go anyway. I sat up and watched Wanda walk quickly toward the bedroom; she stopped in front of the woman and got in her face.

“Get your shit and get the fuck out.”

“What?”

Wanda pushed her in the room. “I said, get your shit and get the fuck out!” Then she went in the room. “Okay, ladies!” Wanda clapped her hands and they began to stir. “The party is over and it’s time for y’all to get your shit and get the fuck out of here!”

“Who the fuck are you, bitch?” the one on the floor asked.

Wanda stepped up quickly and kicked her in the ass.

“I’m the bitch that just kicked you in the ass and told you to get your shit and get the fuck out.” Wanda kicked her in the ass again. “Now get your skank ass up and get the fuck outta here!” Wanda shouted and came out of the room. “And you, get your ass up and get your ass in the shower so we can talk about our business!”

I stood up laughing. “Yes, mommy.”

“I keep telling you, I ain’t Emily,” she said and hit me in the ass as I passed. “If I were, I woulda beat your ass a long time ago,” Wanda said as she followed me to the bedroom.

“Good bye, ladies. I hope it was fun,” I said on my way to the bathroom since I didn’t remember whether it was or not.

When I came out, the women were gone, and Wanda had ordered room service for me. I sat down to two eggs, hash browns, bacon, sausage, toast and coffee.

“Are you with me now?”

“Yeah, Wanda, I’m with you,” I said and poured the coffee.

“Sign this before you start eating, please,” Wanda said and handed me a pen. I signed the documents and picked up my fork.

“I wanted to talk to you about buying another business.”

“Another one?”

“We have a bigger taste now than we used to and business is good. That means more money to clean.”

“What did you have in mind?”

“Vending machines.”

I thought about it for a second or two while I chewed. “I like that. We got enough places to keep them in and we can muscle our way into more,” I said and shoveled some hash browns in my mouth. “You got somebody you’re looking at, or you talking about starting a new company?”

“Which ever presents the best opportunity for us. But we have to expand our legitimate businesses as we expand the criminal.”

“I know, I know; makes everything all pretty on the tax returns.” I took a sip of my coffee. “There’s something I want you to look into for us.”

“What’s that?”

“ATMs.”

“ATMs?”

“It’s a perfect fit to a vending machine company. Something Angee put me on to,” I said and took a bite of bacon. I could tell by the look on her face that Wanda was puzzled at first, but then she got it.

“We fill the machines up with money, people take the money out and their bank sends us back clean cash.”

“And once that money is clean, we keep it clean. Then you can start investing in shit like you talked about, right?”

“Right. I am so glad you get it and I wish you would explain it to Bobby.”

“Bobby understands, he just likes fuckin’ with you, Wanda, you know that.”
