The day after the shooting of Don Corleone was a busy time for the Family.
Michael stayed by the phone relaying messages to Sonny. Tom Hagen was busy Trying to find a mediator satisfactory to both parties so that a conference could be Arranged with Sollozzo. The Turk had suddenly become cagey, perhaps he knew That the Family button men of Clemenza and Tessio were ranging far and wide Over the city in an attempt to pick up his trail. But Sollozzo was sticking close to His hideout, as were all top members of the Tattaglia Family. This was expected By Sonny, an elementary precaution he knew the enemy was bound to take. Clemenza was tied up with Paulie Gatto. Tessio had been given the Assignment of trying to track down the whereabouts of Luca Brasi. Luca had not Been home since the night before the shooting, a bad sign. But Sonny could not Believe that Brasi had either turned traitor or had been taken by surprise. Mama Corleone was staying in the city with friends of the Family so that she Could be near the hospital. Carlo Rizzi, the son-in-law, had offered his services But had been told to take care of his own business that Don Corleone had set him Up in, a lucrative bookmaking territory in the Italian section of Manhattan. Connie Was staying with her mother in town so that she too could visit her father in the Hospital. Freddie was still under sedation in his own room of his parents' house. Sonny And Michael had paid him a visit and had been astonished at his paleness, his obvious illness. "Christ," Sonny said to Michael when they left Freddie's room, "he looks like he got plugged worse than the old man." Michael shrugged. He had seen soldiers in the same condition on the Battlefield. But he had never expected it to happen to Freddie. He remembered the Middle brother as being physically the toughest one in the family when all of Them were kids. But he had also been the most obedient son to his father. And Yet everyone knew that the Don had given up on this middle son ever being

Important to the business. He wasn't quite smart enough, and failing that, not Quite ruthless enough. He was too retiring a person, did not have enough force. Late in the afternoon, Michael got a call from Johnny Fontane in Hollywood. Sonny took the phone. "Nah, Johnny, no use coming back here to see the Old Man. He's too sick and it would give you a lot of bad publicity, and I know the old Man wouldn't like that. Wait until he's better and we can move him home, then come see him. OK, I'll give him your regards." Sonny hung up the phone. He turned to Michael and said. "That'll make Pop happy, that Johnny wanted to fly from California to see how he was." Late that afternoon, Michael was called to the listed phone in the kitchen by One of Clemenza's men. It was Kay. 8 "Is your father all right?" she asked. Her voice was a little strained, a little Unnatural. Michael knew that she couldn't quite believe what had happened, that His father really was what the newspapers called a gangster. 9 "He'll be OK," Michael said. 10 "Can I come with you when you visit him in the hospital?" Kay asked. Michael laughed. She had remembered him telling her how important it was to do such things if you wanted to get along with the old Italians. "This is a special case," he said. "If the newspaper guys get a hold of your name and background you'll be on page three of the Daily News. Girl from old Yankee family
mixed up with son of big Mafia chief. How would your parents like that?" 12 Kay said dryly, "My parents never read the Daily News.
