Not a good Morning

Jakes's father was back from his trip

Jakes's father said "Dora, where is jakes he is not in his room?"

The helper said "check the study rooms, the home gym, bathrooms, and the guestrooms should I go on, did you check him in all this rooms?"

Jakes's father said "Dora, I miss you being difficult probably with Laura."

The helper said "here he is wearing yesterday clothes, Morning Jakes."

Jakes's father said "you look like you didn't have much sleep."

Jakes said "Morning, hope your trip was great, I fall asleep while sitting next to my babe, my body hurts not compared to what Laura is going through. "

The helper said "what happened, you two where in a good space when I went to bed."

Jakes said "after you left, Laura got the bad news that her father died"

Jakes's father said "I'm sorry son, if there's anything you need I'm here."

Jakes said "we were having the best time of our lives while her father was dying, do you think she will be mad at me. She told me she loves me and now this."

Jakes's father said "Son, don't worry about that I'm sure she won't blame herself or you for not being there for her father."

Jakes said "I don't know her that well enough."

The helper said "you know she loves you, tell Laura we are here for her and will help with whatever she needs."

Jakes said "I appreciate that, let me go take a bath and check on my babe."

The helper said "they had an amazing night, they were glowing so in love, I wish you saw him he was happy, he was jakes the jakes I know."

Jakes's father said "Laura is good for him, when he is with Laura doesn't have to pretend to be someone else."

The helper said "I'm glad you see that, I would hate for jakes to choose between you and Laura, thank God you got your senses back soon."

Jakes's father said "Dora, you are overreacting wouldn't put my son in a position where he should choose between me and someone he loves, I want him to be happy and I also have to watch out for him."

The helper said "Not get his heart broken like you did when you were young by a black girl and this thing I am better is just because you still think you were better than the guy she chose over you who happens to be black."

Jakes's father said "I can't deny that, she ruin me wanted nothing to do with black people or going back to where I grow up but I am over that. I met Jakes's Mother our life was great together and Laura reminds me of Bella, how hard I fought to forget her and going on the dark path."

The helper said "if you say so, but I think you need to go back to the hood that is part of your life."

Jakes's father said "there's nothing left for me there my parents are dead luckily they did not die there."

The helper said "you're still holding on to the past angry about what Bella did move on."

Jakes's father said "it is easy to say, jakes doesn't know I almost got arrested while growing up doing crime because of my love for Bella and he just knows I dated a lot of girls before I met his mother that's all"

The helper said "let me guess you're ashamed of telling him this because you look down on other people while you used to be like them."

Jakes's Father said "It is my life, my past, my mistakes and I worked hard to be where I am today respected all around the world."

The helpers said "speaking of mistakes I hope some of those mistakes that you are continuing to do, won't ruin your relationship with your son."

Jakes's father said " I get you know everything about me when I need advice I will tell you and right now I got this ,some things need to stay hidden."

The helper said "Like your past, I will mind my business I did that for years now."
