“As my supplier wishes,” I scoot to the edge of the bed and gesture for him to pass me the bottle of whiskey. “Check under the couch, ashtray and half-smoked joint should be theresomewhere,” I gulp the whiskey, and pass the bottle to Rosaline and she happily takes it like I’m handing her candy.

“It’s happening today,” Orazio reaches under the couch. “Are you ready Rosa?” He brings out the ashtray and lights up an untouched rolled joint.

I thought I smoked some of that but he’s lucky. Rosaline was passively getting high just inhaling what I was smoking last night so I had to stop.

“I don’t know Orazio,” Rosaline sips from the whiskey and exhales deeply, “I think I'm ready but what if he finds out and turns the wheel against us?”

“He won’t find out unless someone tells him, Claudio is too self-absorbed to see what we have coming for him,” Orazio passes her the joint and she scrunches her nose at him. “Don’t give me that face, you might as well turn fully instead of being a passive smoker,” he wriggles the joint in her face and she laughs.

“I smoke,” she takes the joint from him, “I just can’t remember the last time, and I am no shark like the both of you,” she drags and passes it to me.

I’m loving this.

Puff puff pass.

“No shark like the man with your cock,” he takes the bottle of whiskey from her, and swigs.

“I am more than the man with her cock,” I puff but don’t pass yet.

“Whatever, give the blunt back to her, she needs it to calm her nerves for what she is about to do,” he flicks his index finger at me and I pass it to her.

“Let's go over it quickly,” I rest my elbows on my knees, “You meet him first in his office right?” I ask Rosaline and she nods, “Which means I have to go in after the meeting?”

“But what if she can meet him outside his office?” Orazio points out.

“Better not to, and I doubt anything would change if she meets him in the office or not, he would see those things and act the same way,” I shrug.

“So she meets him there and we set the booby trap there?” Orazio swigs from the whisky and leans forward. “Then how do we get Maria out?”

“Leave that to me, I’ll handle it,” I flick my fingers for Rosaline to pass me the joint and she does.

“Okay, we have a plan,” Orazio nods, “But listen, be careful, don’t poke him too much, there’s no telling what he can do,”Orazio points at me. “Rosa, don’t give yourself away, speaking about being a bitch that wants to manipulate Benedetto would need an extra level of convincing, because what I see in your eyes shows someone that’s…” he clears his throat, “Let’s just leave it at that.”

Rosaline nods nervously and snatches the bottle of whiskey from Orazio to take one gulp, then returns it to him. While we were planning she confessed in tears to what her father and Claudio had forced her to do in those first days after her arrival, her role in their own plan. It also explained some of her doubts and anger towards me and the situation she was stuck in.

“Hey, are you good?” I gesture for her to come to me and she obeys, walking over in her polka-dotted dress from Evelyn.

“I’m just nervous,” she sits on my lap.

I nod, “Give us a minute,” I don’t look at Orazio as I ask for him to excuse us, but he picks it up and starts to walk out.

“I’ll take that,” he turns back and comes to take the joint from her, “I will be in the study,” he walks out.

“Alright bud,” I nod.

“Whatever sweet cheeks,” he hollers.

Christ!

Rosaline bursts into laughter, hugging me with her shuddering body.

“Yeah, laugh at my expense.”

She moves away from me to take my face in, pressing her lips together to hold back her laughter.

“Let it out,” I roll my eyes at her, but she shakes her head instead.

“I should ask him for pet name inspos,” she giggles.
