9 THE BLESSING

I STILL LOVE YOUR SON BUT I CAN FORGIVE HIM FOR WHAT HE DID, ALL I CAN DO IS HAVE HIM SEE ME FOR ME AND TRY TO BE FRIENDS WITH HIM IF HE STILL

LOVES ME AFTER BEING FRIENDS THEN MAYBE THERE IS A CHANCE FOR HIM. "BIG

SHOT PLEASE DON'T TELL YOUR SON I STILL LOVE HIM I RATHER HIM TRY TO SEE ME IF HE TRULY LOVES ME, HE WILL SEE IT IF HE THINKS ALL HOPE FOR HIM IS OVER THEN SO BE IT, BUT IF HE THINKS OTHERWISE THEN SO BE IT BUT TIME WILL TELL." BIG SHOT WAS SHOCKED ALL THE THINGS HIS SON HAD DONE TO HER AND EVEN THEN SHE STILL LOVED HIM, TO HAVE HIM MAKE HER FALL FOR HIM YET AGAIN. HE THOUGHT TO HIMSELF "SHE IS WORTHY TO BE WITH MY SON EVEN BEFORE SHE KNOW THAT HE WAS THE SON OF A MOB BOSS SHE LOVED HIM. I CAN ALSO SEE WHY NOW MY SON NEVER HAD EYES FOR HER, SHE IS A GOD FEARING WOMAN AND SHE MESSED IT UP BECAUSE OF MY SON, ALL I CAN DO NOW IS ASK IF SHE IS OKAY FOR ME TO SEE HER AS A DAUGHTER AND ASK HER IF MY SON DOES DECIDE AT SOME POINT TO ASK HER IF SHE WOULD MARRY HIM." AFTER THEY HAD TALKED FOR FIVE HOURS AND THEY STREET LIGHT COME ON, SHE ASKED TO GO HOME. BIG SHOT TOLD HER I'M GOING TO ASK YOU ONE FINAL AND VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION. "KAYLA AFTER SEEING MY SON AND BEING WITH HIM AFTER ALL HE HAS DONE AND NOW THAT YOU KNOW WHO HE IS AND WHERE HIS PLACE IS, DO YOU STILL LOVE HIM? SHE REPLIED "YES I STILL LOVE HIM REGARDLESS OF THE

MONEY , WHO OR WHERE HIS PLACE IS BECAUSE I SEEN HIM AS A GUY THAT WAS

ALWAYS ALONE EVEN WITH THE FACES BE PUT UP FOR ALL HIS FRIENDS, I SEEN

THROUGH ALL THAT BUT NOW THAT I KNOW THAT HE IS THE SON OF A MOB BOSS I UNDERSTAND NOW WHY HE IS THE WAY HE IS AND WHY HE HAS THE MANY FACES AND WHY HE DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO LOVE A GOOD GIRL UNTIL HE SEEN FOR HIS

EYES THAT I'M A MILLION IN ONE GIRL, BUT TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION" " YES I

LOVE HIM EVEN MORE BECAUSE I KNOW IF HE EVER SEES ME AS MORE THAN A

FRIEND WHEN HE FINALLY DECIDES TO ASK ME OUT OR IF HE CAN'T TAKE IT

ANYMORE AND SEE ME AS A THE ONE FOR HIM. I KNOW THAT HE WILL MAKE HELL ON

EARTH TO PROTECT ME. BIG SHOT SEEN THAT SHE WAS THE PERFECT MATCH FOR

HIS SON EVEN IF HIS SON DOESN'T SEE IT YET BECAUSE KAYLA REMINDS HIM OF BIG

SHOTS MOM IN A WAY. SHE WAS A GOD FEARING WOMAN BUT SHE KNOW THAT IN

THE STREET HER SON HAD TO MAKE SOMETHING FOR HIMSELF, AFTER HE SEEN

WATCH HE SAID TO HER. "THANK YOU FOR LOVING MY SON AND FROM NOW ON

REGARDLESS OF MY SON YOU WILL BE MY DAUGHTER UNTIL HE SEES YOU BUT

UNTIL THEN MY SON WILL NOT KNOW THAT WE HAVE HAD THIS CONVERSATION.

KAYLA DIDN'T EXPECT THAT ANSWERS FROM HIM OR THAT SHE WOULD PROTECT

HER AS IF SHE WAS HIS OWN DAUGHTER. AFTER THEY HAD TALK HE ORDER THAT

THEY DROP HER OFF TO HER HOME, AFTER HE GIVE THE ORDER THEY WALK TO THE

CAR AND HE ASKED ONE LAST THING. "KAYLA WHEN MY SON GETS RELEASED FROM THE HOSPITAL DO YOU WANT TO COME LIVE WITH HIM IN THE HOUSE SO YOU CAN HELP HIM CATCH UP ON THE SCHOOL WORK?
