𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐍 𝐒𝐇𝐄  𝐅𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐃 𝐎𝐅 𝐀 𝐉𝐎𝐁, Ileana wasn't exactly sure what the three would be doing, but working in a shitty food van was not that. She hated it, it was hot, they worked long hours, she despised it. But she never once complained to Tony, he had sacrificed a lot to get them this far, she was grateful for that. However Tony wasn't quiet about his hatred for the job at all.

"Fuck!" He muttered, burning himself at the sink while Ileana dried some dishes and cutlery, manny was cooking the food. She looked over at him.

"What's wrong man?" Manny questioned him while he worked away at the food for the people sitting in front of them. Tony didn't answer him.

"Qué pasa?" She mumbled softly, turning to face him while his face did most of the talking. He was very clearly unhappy with their situation, they all were.(what's wrong)

"Your big shot friend better come up with something soon. I didn't come to the United States to see my girl work like a slave, and to break my back!" He barked while cleaning dirty dishes. Ileana chose to say nothing, she knew him and manny would fight, and she didn't want to be a part of it.

"He's coming! What do you want from me?!" Manny complained, turning around to look at Tony, who was pissed. Tony said nothing else as another worker who was in there started speaking to him in Spanish.

Later that night the were still technically working but barely anyone was eating so they sat there drinking cups of coffee. Ileana was exhausted, she was leaning against Tony who had his arms around her waist, letting her lean on him, knowing how tired she was.

They were people watching. They watched people leave the fancy club that was directly opposite where they worked, they saw rich couples and friends going in and out together, and their fancy clothes and cars.

"Ooh, look at that one, in the pink, I like her" Manny said watching a women who was wearing a fancy pink dress, he turned to his friends to get their input but saw Tony holding a practically asleep Ileana in his arms, playing with her hair as he did.

She jumped back awake when the man who worked with them started speaking from outside the van "There's two guys out there looking for you"

"That's him man, that's El Mono, I told you" manny said standing up and Tony began walking out, bringing a tired Ileana with him. Tony turned her around, taking off her apron before leading her out.

Manny walked over to the car, it was nice. He greeted the two men, introducing them to Tony and Ileana "Tony that's Omar Suarez, and that's Waldo Rojas over there. This is Tony's girl Ileana's" Manny introduced, she gave them a shy smile.

"I've got something for you" Omar said smiling as he turns to face manny who was looking down at him from outside the car.

He started telling them about moving marijuana off a boat, around 45 tons, telling them they'd get 500 each.

"You gotta be kidding? 500? Who do you think we are baggage handlers? The going rate on a boat is 1,000 a night, you know that" Tony began.

He went on to keep demanding they get more, when Omar kept denying he called him a monkey and Omar tried pulling out his gone, his friend stopped him, but Ileana still gasped and shouted for him to stop. Hearing her worried cries Tony lost it, being held back by manny. Omars friend whispered something in his ear.

"Okay all right big man! You wanna make some big bucks? Let's see how tough you are. You know something about cocaine? There's Columbians coming on Friday, new guys. They say they got two keys for us, for openers. Pure coke, hotel in Miami Beach. I want you to go over there. If it's what they say, pay them and bring it back. Do that you got five grand" Omar said.

Manny and Tony glanced at each other, wondering what to do "Go, pay them, bring it back, yeah?"

They were told a few more things to remember. Ileana isn't sure how Tony hasn't lost the head yet, he usually attacks anyone who offends him. Manny starts giving out after saying Tony was asking for too much but Tony quickly shushed him.

As they walked away the man who worked with them called out "Where you going? There's dishes left to be washed!"

"Wash em yourself!" Tony yelled back, throwing the apron in the man's face. The man started giving out and Tony said they were so called retiring. Ileana giggled as Tony wrapped an arm around her waist, the three of them leaving.
