Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing Head and his crew, Piper Collins, the restaurant's silver-haired proprietress, scurried over to them. "Head, what's this all about? I just paid the protection fee a couple of days ago. Why are you back already?" "Two days ago was just that two days ago. Today, I'm here for today's dues. With how well your place is doing, thanks to my protection, who knows how much trouble you'd be in without me? Your restaurant wouldn't last a day. For today, let's just say you owe a modest sum of a hundred thousand dollars." "Head, this restaurant is a small operation. I don't make that much in a year! Plus, you already took a hundred thousand fromtwo days ago; I can't possibly cup with that much again," lamented Piper.
Head was fully aware of Piper's son's worsening cancer condition needing expensive treatments. He wasn't expecting to leave with cash today but planned to make her sign an IOU instead.
Piper's beautiful daughter, Aurora Collins, suddenly rushed over. "Mom, stop giving these goons money! Our family's restaurant will be just fine as long as they don't cause trouble. And dad's hospital bills are nove mounting; we need every penny!" Head's eyes lit up at the sight of Piper's daughter, Aurora. He hadn't realized Piper had such a beautiful girl. Aurora had just graduated from college and was interning at The Perkins Organization, helping out at the restaurant after work. Head hadn't seen her before now.
While Head knew Hudson was inflicted with cancer and that Piper was out of money, his visit today was motivated by other reasons. As the daughter of a woman falling prey to these extortion tactics, Aurora's appearance had just changed the stakes.
