Francesca pulled up outside the coffee shop.  She only had a few dollars in her purse, enough to get food for the week, so when one of the ladies had said she had an 'opportunity' Francesca was interested.  She got out of the Packard, one of the few things left to her by Concetta, her aunt, after the last war, straightened her dress, and headed into the shop.  She sat at the table she had been told to sit at and waited for the other woman to arrive. 

She sipped her coffee, a luxury at her income level, and she was hoping that this might be the gateway to a very lucrative job.  But as a woman, she didn't expect much, there weren't many... discreet jobs for women, not in the New World. 

When the woman sat down Francesca was so lost in her thoughts, it was all she could do not to squeak in surprise, a bad habit of hers when her mind wandered away from her.

Walking by Vas1 happens look down in the lady purse as she pay for her coffee and notice change all thru out her purse as he pays for his breakfast to go. And he writes down on a 20 dollar bill, you look knew to town and I think a great looking lady like yourself can make serious money in this town. Folds it up gives it to Carmen the waitress and says give this to the lady who just got the coffee and ask her if the bill is right if so meet me same time tomorrow here .

Butterfingers had a telegram the day before from an acquaintance of hers about a lady in town that needed some help finding some work. She was to meet her at the local coffee shop and Butterfingers was on her way there now. As she walks up to the door she sees Vas1 leaving the shop. She smiles and waves then heads in to find this person.

Stepping in through the door, Butterfingers quickly scans the room and spots a woman sitting on her own, deep in thought, so she heads in that direction, pulls the chair out and sits.

Butterfingers smiles as the lady looks up and says "Hi, I am Butterfingers. I beleive you are here to see me about some employment opportunities in this fine city?"

The lady sitting across from her looks nervous and shy, but a slight nod of the head confirms this is definitely the lady she was to meet.

"Ok, well, I am not sure what you were told, but I may have some work for you if you don't mind getting a little dirty. It isn't the most glamorous but it can be quite profitable. Are you interested?"

Vas1 leaving the diner saw Butterfingers heading in, he thinks to himself (with her going in she going get the beautiful woman under her wings before I can). As one of his goons opens the door for his car, he tells him make should what work Butterfingers has going on its big man. Make sure you tell her we and here and can help. The car pulls off smell kik a fresh Cuban fired up.

"I am interested, "  She said, looing over at butterfingers, "I don't mind getting dirty, it is just that many of the jobs I have been sent to do were-- less than discreet, and I do not think that befits a lady."  She said.  

She turned to Vas.  "Is this person with you?"  She didn't want to start off wrong, but as a woman in a man's job, there were lots of people rather against her having a job

The hot Las Vegas heat was horrible. The humidity was even worse. That sticky humidity tthat stuck to you and just made you feel nasty. Today may be humid but Charlie had something to do. Charlie was a mobster he did crooked things. One of those being he was he was a pimp. Being a pump brought in tons of money. It also brought competition and police. A new man by the name of Travon and started pimping in his area. He had approached the man and explained the whole situation but was met with disrespect.

Charlie had to maintain his image. That being him being portrayed as a ruthless mobster that will kill to keep his business. 

Charlie had been thinking all day and he knew he had to make a statement. He planned to kill this lowlife and prove he was not someone to be fucked with. He knew exactly where this man lived. He called up his buddy Whitey_Bulgar 

"I have a big job and I'm going to need some help come to my place and I'll give you all the details".

That being said he hung up and started loading the Tommy Guns.
