chapter 7

I was focused on Joe, that i didn't realized that all

four men disappeared from the screen.

lguess he doesn't like to be a step behind when it

comes to a situation's like this.

And all four guys behind him, knew that.

From the corner of my eye, I see Cecilia rubbing her eyes, she must be tired from all the things that happened today. I crawl towards the wall and i made sure i was still in Joe's line of vision, I put my

back on the wall, its ice cold I hissed

From all the adrenaline i had pumping though me i didn't notice how cold it was in the room. I look at both my kids, Lucas is wearing a white long sleeve shirt and black jeans and Cecilia is wearing a light pink sweater and black leggings, I could tell, by just looking at them that they were cold. I looked at myself, I had on a white oversized sweater and black skin tightjeans, I could tell out of all three of

us i was a bit warmer than them. I

ltook off my sweater which revealed a black t-shirt that outline my clevelage, lets just say it leaves little to imagination, it was a tight black tank top,that reachesjust above my belly button i wasn't planning on taking off my sweater. so ijust threw on a tank top, and with these girls, their ready to play peek-a-boo, with i don't keep pulling up my shirt now and then.

"Mom?" Lucas looked at me in question

"Come here, Cecilia and Lucas" i said in my mom voice

they both obediently came to me, I lift my oversized sweater over there heads, they both fit in my sweater because there were small, i spread my

legs and place them in between, facing the camera'

"Now sleep, both of you"

I know there both warm when i felt them stop shaking i smile a very satisfying smile, i sang them a lullaby and wait till both their breath even out before i look back at Joe.

and his face was looking at me with ..... as if he's

satisfied " Why are you looking all pleased for?" i said

"Just glad that the mother of my kids isn't as dumt as she looks, or one of those bitches who don't give a shit about their kids."

I gasp

" As dumb as I look? For one i do not look dumb"

said harshly

"Two, I'm not one ofthose women, who don't not care for their children, I love my children to death, they make my life so much....funny, and fun, they

give me so much love, that'll last three life times. '

I explained softly

Hejust looks at me

Then grins

The room filled with silence as Joe looked at my kids with longing in his eyes

But as quickly as i saw it,

It quickly disappeared

"Can't wait till I feel that, darling."
