"Apparently

He didnt love me enough to stay alive?


He never loved anyone

Except for Tony..."





XXVI


"Just knowing he's in Hell for what he has done here is hardly satifaction enough."

"What do you mean Charmaine?!" A.J. was taken aback by her cold-hearted comment.

"He is such a Coward.--Such a Waste of Human Life."

"Have you informed the authorities yet?"

"NO."--(NO?)

"NO.--I CAN'T." (You want me to call for you?)

"NO!--NO. NO. NO." Charmaine lifts her head to seriously look A.J. in the eyes:

"I Can't Anthony." (WHY?!)

"I CAN'T--BECAUSE I WILL LOSE EVERYTHING!" A.J. sat silently listening to Charmaine explain herself as he savored the taste of fine aged wine.

"We both have life insurance policies on each other for 2M$ apiece.  But my husband has just voided his policy by committing suicide!" 

"Well Charmaine there isn't anything you can do to change that now?! Just look at him hanging there!" A.J. bluntly stated.

"There has to be something that we can do?!" (What?!--WE?!)

"YOU HAVE TO HELP ME A.J.--I WILL SPLIT THE INSURANCE MONEY W/YOU?! & I'LL DO ANYTHING FOR YOU! I'LL DO WHATEVER YOU WANT?!--If you will help me?!" Her voice faded as she clutches his jacket sleeve.

"Charmaine--I don't want Anything. What you are suggesting is seriously risky & could result in grievous implications." (I Don't Care!)

"WELL--I FUCKING DO CARE!" (You know what I mean Anthony.)

"YEA?! & YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!" A.J. stared into her stone-cold eyes.


CHARMAINE BUCCO

"BELLA BOCCA"


Suddenly Charmaine leaps up & grabs a long knife & raises it back to rush towards Artie's hanging body to start stabbing his dead body when A.J. stood up & stopped her by grabbing her wrist.

"JUST FUCKING HOLD ON HERE BELLA BOCCA!" Charmaine looks back over her shoulder & drops her head & the knife onto the floor. (Yes Marquis.)

"I want you to listen to me closely & do exactly what I tell you-If you want my Help?" A.J. insisted. 

"Oh Anthony--I'll do whatever you say." Charmaine soberly submits.

"First thing: Go out lock the front doors & hang the CLOSED sign then make a second sign to post 'Closed for Emergency Repairs.'

After that go into your office & cancel all of your dinner reservations for the weekend until next week--Including my own!" A.J. had intended on having a business dinner w/ Julianna Skiff to promote her.


Then A.J. proceeded to drop Arties hanging body down onto the floor avoiding the puddle of piss benenth him once his bladder released.

A.J. drags Artie into the kitchen's walk-in cooler to hide & set him sitting up in a chair wedged into the corner before his body went stiff.

A.J. walks back out into the kitchen & locked the cooler door behind himself. He grabs his cellphone as he drops the cooler key into his jacket-pocket to make a series of phone calls.

A.J. calls Perry Annunziata & instructs him to come & meet him there at NUOVO VESUVIO.  Then he calls the Newark Hilton Hotel to reserve two joining rooms.

A.J. calls his construction crew foreman Bryon Spatafore & instructed him to come immediately to Nuovo Vesuvio Restaurant. He wanted Byron to stretch orange construction caution tape around the building w/business signs: CLOSED FOR EMERGENCY REPAIRS.


"NUOVO VESUVIO "


After that A.J. called the two Palmice Brothers & instructed Mikey Jr to leave Franky there w/Franny at the Condo in the van to pick-up Tommy &/two 5 gallon cans of gasoline to bring there at the Nuovo Vesuvio.


A.J. called out for Charmaine back into the kitchen  to clean up the mess & mop the urine up off the floor. 

While he told her to turn her cellphone off & to keep it off.  A.J. informs Charmaine that he had arranged a ride & a hotel room for her to lay low until she heard different from him. Anything she needed would be provided for her. 

At that moment Perry arrived at the back door.

"In Here Perry!--Charmaine Go get in the car." (Thank You Anthony!)

"GO." A.J. points as he puts his arm around Perry's back to give him his instructions.  He was take Charmaine to the Hilton & stay w/her until he had to go to work at the CRASS CLUB. A.J. would send Perry's replacement. Lastly A.J. slips him a one hundred dollar bill to feed her & himself.


Then A.J. went over to look inside the oversized refrigerator to see what was inside it to munch on. Lunch seemed to be hours ago by now.

When Mikey & Tommy arrived he told them to put the two gas cans on the backseat floor-boards behind the front-seats. Then he gave Tommy a GPS location where he wanted Tommy to drop off his car & leave the keys  benenth the drivers seat's floor-mat. 

Mikey was to follow Tommy & pick him up after he parks & leaves A.J.'s car there for him. Then Mikey & Tommy are to go to the Hilton Hotel & relieve Perry so he could go to his door-man night-job. A.J. gave Tommy a one hundred dollar bill & tells him to order pizzas. 

A.J. would call Bobby & Robbie to bring beer & chips to meet them all there for a friendly poker game.

Once he seen they had gone A.J. called Julianna Skiff to inform her their dinner reservations had been canceled due to Emergency Repairs. He asked her if they could reschedule? Which she would politely accept w/grace being stood up. 

"You're the Boss!" was her disappointed poke after hoping she could have achance for a second sexual encounter w/him alone. (CLICK.)


A.J. smokes a final cigarette as he awaited the impending dusk before he would remove Artie's stiffen body from the locked cooler & to carry it out the backdoor. Where he set him up in the driver's seat of Artie's car to strap & latch the seatbelt high across his cord-welted throat to hold him up straight. 

Then A.J. climbs into the front passenger seat to start the car & backed it out from its parking spot to drive it away using his left foot to accelerate & brake while he steered the car w/his left hand. 

A.J. drove the car around the block & down under the railroad tressel to the other side of the railway tracks. He was anticipating the 9:05 freight-train as he turned off to take a service road to cross the railroad tracks without crossing signals where A.J. stopped & parked the car in the middle. 

A.J. leaves the car-motor running & kisses Artie on the forehead before hitting the electric locks switch for all four doors as he calmly steps out to walk away to the blasting sounds of the approaching high-speed freight-train's crossing horns. 

A.J. climbs down the steep embankment of the railroad tracks where his car was parked below waiting for him to make his get away.



9:05

As A.J. makes his escape from the scene surfacing from benenth the tressel the disstressful blasting train horn noise ceased for the high shrill sound of steel against steel feebly locking up the train-brakes before striking Artie strapped inside his locked car w/a loud crashing.


9:05

Only to helplessly continue shoving the smashed vehicle down the railroad tracks to create spit-firing sparks until the automobile explores intially before a second & greater explosion from the two 5 gallon gasoline in the backseat of the car went off.



9:05

A.J. --CLICK.  CLICK. CLICKED streaking photographs of the freight-train shoving the burning car wreakage down the tracks before he turned off to disappear w/the falling dew at dusk.
