"So daddy do I get to meet grandma and grandpa?" he asks

That's when it hit me, I forgot to tell them I had a son... I ponder on the thought while driving to the park. I reply with a simple nod and yes as pull into the parking lot.

"Yea you can meet them today" I say

"Yay" he giggles 

We look out upon the lake in the park and sit on the bench. For a 3 year old he sure knows his sentences.

"Dad" he ask

"Yes??? " I chuckle

"Do you have a um- lady friend" he says lowly

"No not at all"  I say blankly showing no expression

"Oh ok cause mom said-" he says but looks away

My eyes shot up when he mentioned his mother, what does she have to do with this and as I look at Xavier he kinda looks sad and alone and has small bruises on his arms.

"Has mommy been hitting you Xavier??" I say kneeling down to his height

"No well- she yes dad she told me not to tell nobody and she wants to hurt me and your ladyfriend" he says 

A rage came through my body and that fact that she is hitting my son is a red flag I really want to strangle her. But I gotta tell someone and Im getting full custody.

I put my feelings aside and wanted to get xavier and my mind off of things so we got chocolate ice cream cones and walked around looking at the birds. He is the best Lil guy ever.

"Piggy back ride" he says

"Sure" I say

I pick him up, put him on myback and spin around on the grass.

Harmony p.o.v. 3pm

"Sissy , harmony!!!!!!!!!!!!!"  Richard yells

"Yes Lil bro" I say annoyed

"Can we go to the park I want to try out my kite" he says jumping up and down

"Hmm fine"  I say

I get him dressed cause he still in his power ranger PJs  lil 5 year old what can you do.

Hop in my car and go to the park, when I pull up I see Larry's car parked ...well I hope he doesnt see me.

"Go play Richie and please don't go far I'll be right here by the lake and don't swim in the lake" I say rubbing his curly hair

"I know sissy jeesh " he says and plays on the see saw

I pull out a blanket and lay down soaking up the sun and nice breeze its really relaxing,  I see some kid running towards me but trips over me nearly kicking me in my stomach.

"Ow shit that hurt" I groan

"Sorry miss don't be mad at me " he says

"No never its not your fault" I say smiling

Soon my smile fades when I see the man next to the Lil boy

"oh hi larry" I say

"Hey harm" he says scratching his neck

"Sooo umm guess I'll be going " I say walking away but he grabs my arm

"Wait!-...,this is my son xavier , Xavier this is harmony"  he says

I see alot of resemblance between them its a Lil shocking, but xavier is such a cute sweetheart its hard not to like him.  I call Richard from playig with his kite  so we can go out to eat.

"Larry would you and xavier like to go to lunch with me and richie??"

"Sure no problem"  he say

Red robins

We sit down while they take or orders and wait for the food to arrive luckily we past lunch hour so it didn't take long.

Larrel keeps staring at me and playing footsie under the table. While the kids are laughing I get to know Xavier a little more. He starts to talk about his mommy and larrel shows me a picture of her.

When he did my stomach turned into knots

Samantha p.o.v.

My plan is working as long as she is not around my man everything will be fine and as for my son I could care less. If it wasn't for him I would've had Larry already but ever since i was pregnant with him I had major complications, and being a mother is horrible ...the crying the nagging and mommy this and mommy that.  That's why I hit him make his life miserable and he better not tell no one or it will be worse than yesterday
