It had been a while since he’d simply sat outside and relaxed. Business was so hectic he'd almost forgotten what life was all about. He needed to spend more time enjoying it. Antonio loved his city of Calí. It was the home of his ancestors, and he vowed he would always remain here. The estate was well hidden, in the vast blue mountains above the Cauca Valley. The view from the mountaintop a radiant one. On a clear day such as this one, Antonio could easily see the Pacific Ocean to the west. Sitting in his favorite lounge chair, he didn't hear Emilio come up behind him. "Antonio." "Hey, little brother, how are you?" Antonio asked, surprised to see him. "It's been a while." "That's no fault of mine," Emilio replied as he sat down in the chair across from Antonio. "I know, things have been crazy lately." "A little too crazy from the sound of it. You look tired." "It comes with the trade." "I think maybe I can help you," Emilio replied. Antonio had never known Emilio to be so direct.
