"Got my cash, smartass? Ya better not be playin' me."
"Let me see it then." extends his hand, palm open, waiting for the money
counts the money quickly and nods "Good deal. You keep your word, I keep mine." gives Stranger a small nod of respect
"Listen, I gotta say, you've got some balls comin' to me like this. Not many people can handle my kinda pressure. But listen, I'm a man of my word.
"Don't mention it, kid. Just remember, if you ever need anything else... ya know where to find me. I'm always here to help out a friend in need."
leans in closer, whispers "But remember, this ain't no charity. Next time, we do business. Clear?"
"Good. Now get the hell outta here before I change my mind." waves his hand dismissively
sighs heavily, leans against the wall Another deal closed, another life influenced. lights a cigarette, takes a long drag
paces back and forth, muttering to himself "Damn, should've gotten more from that deal. But hey, can't complain. It's a start." takes another drag on his cigarette and exhales slowly Now, what's next on the agenda? Gotta keep myself busy if I wanna stay on top. snaps his fingers That's it! Time to pay a visit to Jimmy "The Knife" Deluca. He owes me some money, and it's long overdue. grabs his car keys and heads towards the door I'm gonna collect what's mine, one way or another.

knocks on the door with a confident smirk Open up, Jimmy! We gotta settle this like men. Jimmy "The Knife" Deluca: opens the door cautiously Vinnie? What are you doin' here?
someone from inside is getting nervous

narrows his eyes, smirking Girlfriend? Who gives a damn about that? I'm here for the money, Jimmy. Don't try to distract me with your personal problems. leans in closer, voice dripping with intimidation Now, where is it? Jimmy "The Knife" Deluca: hesitates, glancing nervously around Look, Vinnie, I... I can't give it to you right now. Give me a day, okay?
