John was finally back in LA he hasn't really spent much time there since the move he's been out in other cite's Supplying The street's with Coke When John Came back to LA he found a beautiful house for sell With the money he made off of the drug's He brought it for 5.297 million dollar's it was much bigger then his Row house in Philly that is for sure 

Situated on a half-acre between Los Feliz Boulevard and Griffith Park, this Spanish Colonial Revival house built in 1931 offers contemporary interiors and numerous original features.

The four-bedroom, five-bathroom house is “mysteriously invisible from the street below,” the listing boasts. The roughly 4,500-square-foot estate is “remarkably preserved,” with its original and colorful tiled bathrooms, moldings, and hardwood floors. A rich oak-paneled den, a formal dining room, and a spacious contemporary kitchen are added bonuses.

The grounds hold multiple patios and, behind the house, a pool and a grotto with a waterfall shielded by the house on one side and tall trees on the other.

John Grab's his suitcase out of the Car Grabbing his house key's out of his pocket unlocking the house making his way in John's eye's lit up Seeing how beautiful his new house was "My son will love his new home So much room for him to run around a pool for him to swim in can't wait to see his reaction 

making his way up to the master bedroom unpacking the suit case Putting his Dress pant's into the dresser and hanging up his Suit's and Dress shirt's in the closet John walk's over opening the door's to the balcony of his room Leaning on the rail looking at the amazing view he reach's into his pocket Pulling out a cigar leaning up as he grab's the cigar cutter cutting the end of the cigar off Taking couple puff's on the cigar while lighting the end 

Thinking to his self he came a long way from a row house to this beautiful Spanish Colonial Revival house he's so proud of this life he is making for him and his son Exhaling his cigar smoke as he sit's against the rail of the Balcony enjoying his cigar on this beautiful day 

As John was finishing his cigar He ashed the cigar on the rail Before he made his way into the bed room taking off his wife beater 

hearing a knock on his door He made his way to the bed room window peaking out the curtain Seeing a police car outside of his New house with a officer standing next to the squad car John walked out of his bed room down the stair's Opening the door as officer  Gregory_Wolgast Stood there taking his hat off "Hey Mr DiFronzo You have a minute was in the neighborhood and heard you brought this house Thought i would stop by 

John look's behind Gregory at the other officer in the squad car while putting his wife beater on his shoulder "Got a partner now huh 

Gregory turn's looking back at the officer in the car Laughing as he look's back at John "More of a partner for you DiFronzo He want's to work for you

Looking at Gregory as i motion him into the house closing the door behind him "Would you like a drink?

John Walk's into the kitchen Grabbing the bottle of Whiskey off the counter as he walk's to the Cabinet Grabbing two glass's 

pouring two drink's as he hand's Gregory the glass "Do you know anything about Him he going to keep his mouth shut about my business ?

Gregory Down's the glass of whiskey Before placing it onto the counter "He's been on the force for 12 year's Know to work for People in you're line of work and Never talked about it to anyone But me 

John Take's a swig of his whiskey as he look's at Gregory "You will vouch for him? I can't be having people catching on our business 

"He's a good guy John He use to have a crew of officer's who was on the payroll for a Mobster you have nothing to worry about He even talked about if you would like he could get the crew he had to work for you they are solid 

John pat's Gregory back as he pull's him in for a hug "You're life is on the line Gregory better hope he doesn't let you down because if he doe's you're going to be swimming with the fucking fish's you hear me 

Gregory look's at John as sweat run's down his face as he stutter's "Aaa ah Ye yes John I understand Tyler won't let you down I will have him Run the downtown area also i got that payment from the 95 Brick's I found in a raid 

Reaching into his Police Jacket Pulling out a big envelope Handing it to John "I must be going now Shift is almost over 

Gregory start's walking toward the door as John follow's "Good work Gregory I'll see you around 

Putting on his police hat once he step's out of the house making his way to the squad car as John close's the door looking down at his watch Before he walk's up stair's to his bed room Laying the envelope onto the night stand as he sit's on the bed taking off his shoe's before unbuttoning his pant's taking them off as he get's into his bed Dozing off 

John slowly wake's up tossing and turning leaning up out of bed as he walk's over to the bathroom turning on the shower letting it get nice and cold While he brush's his teeth before jumping into the shower Letting the water run down his body as he face's the shower head as the hair on his arm's stand up from the cold water Wiping his face as he grab's the bar of soap Rubbing his body clean as he turn's off the shower grabbing the towel as he step's out wiping his self dry as he wrap's the towel around him Before walking to the bed room Getting dressed in his grey Falcone suit fixing his tie before he button's up the vest Sliding on the suit Jacket As he fix's his cuff's looking at his self in the mirror while grabbing the comb off the dresser slicking his hair back Before grabbing his gold Crucifix putting it on around his neck as he slide's his gold bracelet on he walk's over to the night stand next to the bed grabbing the envelope as he sit's on the bed counting the money standing up from the bed walking over to his safe as he put's the money in the safe before heading down stair's John Walk's out of his house locking the door behind him as he get's into the Pontiac Making his way to down town LA to start his day 

John was out on the farm since the war was over He was cleaning the animal barn's Making sure they had new bedding as the sun beat's down at him wiping his forehead while he dump's the bedding into the wheel barrel The street life is all John Knew but he loved the farm life it's hard work but i be damn it's relaxing He made his way into the Farm house Grabbing a glass of lemonade to clinch his Thirst Before heading back out to the barn to finish the goat pen 

Sal run's up the stair's at the farm house breathing heavy as he bust's thru the bed room door "John Wake up we got to go They Got Nicholas 

John jump's out of bed Quickly Grabbing his Snub nose from the night stand as He follow's Sal out to the Chevrolet "What the fuck is going on Sal 

closing the door behind him as he crank's the car on Speeding down the dirt road as a dust trail follow's "Shit is hitting the fan John A lot of blood has been spilled It's a fucking war zone out here 

as Sal is over there loading his Thompson Machine gun "Woke up and see a blood bath need to go get some shelter and Find out what's what

John Head's to Las Vega's Seeing Black smoke from out skirt of Vega's as he pull's up to the Headquarter's Leaving the Chevrolet in Park as he hop's out Running into the Headquarter's Making his way up stair's to Nicholas office Where he lay'ed on the floor "Shit not Nicholas 

Grabbing his head as he look's around the office in disbelief as Sal stand's outside the office guarding John start's throwing stuff off the desk in anger Smashing a vase against the wall "Sal help me can't leave him here like this 

John lean's down picking Nicholas up from under his arm's as Sal Grab's his leg's Bringing him down to the Chevrolet Putting Nicholas in the back seat as the get in and Head off from the head quarter's
