The Trouble Within

Chap 15

Several months later, Randall was finally having the leg monitor taken off his leg and he gave the orange shirt back to the prison. It was a relief to get the monitor off his leg.

He had also done his time serving in the therapy program too, and they had deemed him fit for society life again, as well to be expected. He was ready to get out and see the babies that he had brought into the world, if a little nervous about it.

He was finally led outside without cuffs and there was his sister waiting for him.

"Amanda."

"Randall, are you ready to go?"

"Yes."

"Let's go, little brother."

Randall gladly climbed into the car with his sister. He looked in the back and didn't see the kids.

"Where are the kids?" He asked.

"At home, being watched until we get there."

Randall was glad to finally be free of that hated prison. But he was still on parole for awhile.

When they got back to her apartment, he saw that Mike and Celia had been watching the kids.

Randall was not too pleased to see his old rival and ex-friend. Mike didn't look happy to see him either.

"Thanks you two for watching them." Amanda said.

Mike and Celia were happy to watch the kids anytime, and Randall was glad to see Mike go especially.

"Hi, Uncle Randall!" Rex yelled happily. He ran up and hugged his uncle.

It was quite a surprise for Randall, then he said, "Hi, Kiddo."

"So, are you ready to hold your kids?" Amanda asked.

"Huh? I don't know."

"You need to get to know them and they need to know you. Just go sit down on the couch and I'll get them for you." She said.

Randall went and sat down on the couch, with Rex hopping up beside him.

Amanda came back with Lori. She helped get her into position in Randall's arms.

Randall was nervous about this. But he was soon holding his own daughter in his arms just fine. He looked into her little eyes and he saw relation to her.

She cooed at him and it made him soften. He smiled. "It seems almost impossible that I carried her once."

"Yeah, it does, but she's here and healthy. You have yet to meet your son."

Amanda let him bond with Lori for a few minutes before she went and brought Jason into the room. Randall looked up at her.

With his second pair of arms, Amanda let Randall hold Jason.

Randall saw that there was a lot more in common with Stanton with his son. He didn't like that, but he saw his own green eyes and fronds in him too. He wasn't that bad. Reluctantly, he would still keep Jason too. He just hoped his son wouldn't be a reminder of his rapist.

He held his twins for awhile and he even got to feed them for the first time too. It was an enjoyable experience, though the twins were a little fussy with him right now, as they didn't know him quite yet.

Randall was glad that his kids were still babies. He could still work his way into their lives.

On Monday, Randall and Amanda took all the kids to Monsters, Inc. Through Sulley, Randall had a job.
