The little path cut into an unexpected little area of trees. I can't call it a proper rainforest or jungle. Just some trees. I couldn't believe how un-tropical all this was starting to look. It looked like rural east Texas. With the Gulf of Mexico on the side.

I shook my head in quiet disappointment.

Apparently, I was to meet some dude in Corpus Christi, Texas, and board a plane to head out to Mexico. There, I was to meet a guy at a small airstrip in Merida, Yucatan. The name of my contact is supposedly Pedro, but I think to myself, that's probably just an alias.

I was also in need of a passport.

Organic *water*? No one buys that. Who buys that? Why'd he say that? That's when it hit me. Maybe it was a clue. After work that day, I made my way over to the Whole Foods. I just knew there was something about the water.

It was over by the refill station where I made my discovery.

I was at the Whole Foods, because I needed some bananas. I was in the line. Guess who walks in! Yes! It was he, Senor Hierba de Trigo. "Fancy meeting you here," said he.

"Yes. I was out of bananas."

Apparently, he had to pick up some organic water. "See you tomorrow," he said, and with that he was on his way and I was on mine. Little did I know that events were about to take a crazy turn.

"Check it out. It's like I'm in Goodfellas."

The observation that started it all.

"Sure does. You look like a proper gangster," said one of the other trainees. I glanced at the picture and suddenly my mind was saturated with color images: There he is, with an entourage. Not carrying weapons. Nah, he's got people to do that. He just looks cool. It's what he does.
