Chapter 2: The Money

Zac's POV

I had been to many funerals before, and just like the others, this was a typical one. The same traditions, the same rituals but there was only one thing that was different. It was Godfather's body being buried.

I had mixed feelings. I was happy that he was able to live up to 100 and have a great life, but I was sad that he was gone forever.

The car was silent when Godmother and I were going back home.

"Godmother, I can't work in the lingerie store anymore," I said breaking the ice. "I'm really sorry, but I have dreams and ambitions too."

"Zac, you can do whatever you want with your life now and I don't mind." My godmother replied.

I exhaled.

"But before your Godfather died he had one final wish. In his will it was stated that he didn't want to give his riches to anyone. He wanted all his valuables and money to be buried in a park in Dallas. Since I am too old to travel now, I would like you to travel there and bury his riches there."

"A-and what about my trip to Washington? O-or the money for that?" I squeaked.

Godmother wiped away a tear, " I'm so sorry Zac, but I'm afraid it's just not going to happen..."

                                                                                        ♡

"JUST NOT GOING TO HAPPEN?!" Nick yelled, "I'LL SHOW HER WHAT'S JUST NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!!!"

"Calm down!" I yelled back, "She's my Godmother, not an assasain.."

"Yeah, but what are we gonna do now?" asked Greg.

That was exactly what I was thinking.

"Wait a second....." Nick said. "Before your Godfather died, he told you that you could have your nine thousand right?"

I nodded slowly.

" So technically it isn't his money anymore! So all you need to do is take out the amount that you want, and bury the rest after the trip! Simple! What do you say?" 


It DID make a lot of sense. Godfather did promise me that money, and anyways he always used to say 'What's mine, is your's Zac!' But at the same time, I felt like I was betraying my Godfather. But what's the worst thing that could happen?


"Boys," I replied dramatically making all their heads turn, "Washington is on!"


Hope you enjoyed the second chapter of this story! The third will be out really soon, and that's when the real action's gonna start. As you may have seen, I have a cast list for this story. I personally don't really like the idea of having to imagine a character as a specific person, but the cast list is just there for those of you who do :)

If you have any criticisms, ideas, thoughts or feedback please let me know! Till next time!
