"Aight lil man, be good for grandma and grandpa....." I looked at my son next to Peanut. It's Friday, the restaurant was closing for the night and everybody was getting ready to go home.

"Yes, daddy....." I ran my hand through his hair.

"You sure you don't wanna cut it.....?" It was becoming wild from his mohawk.

"I like daddy.....Peanut have hair....." He pointed at his new best friend.

"Titi make my hair!" Peanut jumped in excitement. I huffed at him while he pulled on his loose hair.

"It looks nice, too.....you like it.....?"

"Yeah.....daddy have long hair. See.....?" He tugged on the chain that was around his neck, I got on my knee and leaned closer to look at the pendant of Sid's brother.

I got on my knee, taking a closer look. "Ah.....would you look at that....you look just like your daddy....." I smiled at him.

"Ooh....." My son came to stand next to me.

"My daddy die....." I looked up at Peanut, a confused and sad expression in his hazel eyes.

"No he didn't.....your mommy and daddy living right here....." I pointed at his heart. ".....and they love you very much."

Peanut looked at me and gave me a smile. To lose both parents and he was only 3.....I don't think I can understand the confusion he must be feeling.

"Hey.....why don't we all go and race cars on Sunday.....?"

"Yayy!!" They screamed.

I'll take them go kart racing, spend the rest of Sunday afternoon with them. The night I slept at Sid's house, I liked hearing their laughter. It was me and my brothers and later Denver, I actually like kids. My sister in law was about ready to have my niece and just the way I treat my son......Imma treat my niece and Peanut the same.
