The next day,
Early morning Ricky's phone rang, the security at the gate was telling him there was someone at the gate, demanding to talk to the person in charge
"Fucking tabloids getting ruder by the second" Ricky sighed "Fine I'll be at the gate in a few minutes" He told the guard and left the room without waking Al up and made his way to the gate "Can I help you?" He asked the man that stood next to the dark blue Escalade
"Yeah, I need to talk to the owner of this place" The man answered
"Yeah, no, you can talk to me or leave" Ricky told him
"I know you're hiding someone here in this place and I need to talk to the owner about it" The man told Ricky
"Everyone who lives on this property is known by me as well as by the owners of this estate, we'd know if someone trespassing" Ricky answered
"Fine, Alejandro has to come out of these gates one day, he can't hide inside the house forever" The man scoffed
"Al?" Ricky frowned and took a look at the guy and realized the man does have Al's looks a little
"Alejandro Dominic Alvarez, he's my son, not that he deserves to be called son, not as long as he is living in sin" The man replied
"Paco Alvarez?" Ricky asked him
"Si" Paco answered
"Don't you ever think about hurting Alejandro, because I will find you" Ricky told him
"You're Alejandro's bodyguard?" Paco asked
"No" Ricky answered
"Then you're the one who corrupted him? You're the reason he's living in sin?" Paco replied, giving Ricky a disgusted glare
"How is taking care of each other, loving each other and wanting to make each other happy a sin?" Ricky replied
"Because it is against nature!" Paco replied "Both of you should be ashamed of yourselves, going against nature and living in sin, having a child out of wedlock and confuse her with the sinful way of living, two men or two women shouldn't live together and they certainly shouldn't raise a kid together either, corrupting their mind to make them believe that's ok" Paco rambled
"I'd suggest you leave, right now" Ricky replied, having heard a similar speech years ago when his own family disowned him for being gay
"You both need to clean your souls from your impure, unnatural thoughts" Paco told him
"Stick your ancient ideas in a place the sun don't shine" Ricky told him before he made his way back to the house, leaving a very annoyed and angry Paco by his car, Paco shook his head before he got back in his car and left

Several hours later, 8 AM Brazil,
Michael felt lonly, more than ever, of course he missed Jasmine and the kids but atleast the last few days he had Ricky, he never missed a day on tour, he's been on tour with him since the Victory tour when Michael hired him and the last tour (Bad tour) they were busy raising Nicole between the concerts, recordings and charity activities
"Maybe that was not how you're supposed to be grieving" He thought when he found himself thinking about Nina, for the first time in almost a year "If only I could talk to you one more time" He sighed and got ready for his day since they were moving to the next place, Santiago in Chile, the last stop before he'd spend the last month in Mexico, hopefully with some company because he hated to be by himself right now

Meanwhile at the Ranch,
Once everyone woke up and had breakfast, the girls dropped off at school, Damita and Miguel spending the day at Katherine's place with Janet, left Al, Ricky and Jasmine at the Ranch with the three of them (and the security by the gate of course)
"So he found out where I live?" Al gasped once Ricky told them about what happened earlier this morning
"Yeah but don't worry I'll protect you" Ricky told him
"You don't know what he's capable of" Al told him
"He's rude, he told me I was a sinful woman because my husband left me when I was pregnant, it must've been my fault he left and my child probably wasn't my husband's so the divorce was justified" Jasmine remembered
"I'm not scared of him" Ricky replied
---
The next day, Santiago,
While Michael was picking at the breakfast roomservice just brought in, the door to the suite was opened and Alejandro stepped in, alone
"I thought Ricky would be back today?" Michael wondered, raising his brow
"He send me here, because I freaked out about the fact that he, my father, stood at the gates and I was litterly a mess yesterday, so Ricky put me on the first flight from California to here, so I'd be atleast out of the state incase he comes back to the house" Al explained
"I see" Michael replied and sighed, he missed Jasmine too, but she couldn't just step on a plane and come back to him, she needs to rest and focus on her pregnancy "Does Ricky stay with Jasmine and the kids to protect them?" He asked Al
"Yeah and he said he's not scared of him" Al answered
"Wait, didn't Ricky also send you to Joseph by yourself?" Michael remembered
"Yeah" Al nodded
"How did that go?" Michael asked
"Great actually, turns out he loves his granddaughter and said I'm like family too because of Damita, so he's on my side should anything bad happen" Al answered
"Yeah, I know deep down in there hides a nice person, he just doesn't know how to show it all the time" Michael sighed
"Yeah, well atleast he knows how to sometimes show it" Alejandro replied
"I guess" Michael answered
"Anyway, I still have the shedule, that isn't changed, so today is a day off and tomorrow morning the trip to the orphanage and tommorrow night the next concert" Al mentioned
"Yeah" Michael nodded

"It's so not fair uncle Al got to go to daddy, I wanted to go to daddy too!" Nicole complained and gave Ricky the most evil look she ever had while Ricky drove them home from school
"Yeah and me too" Angel added
"Yeah and I wanted to be with Al too" Ricky replied, tired of explaining they can't go and Michael will be home in three weeks
"Just go to the place those fly things are and tell the flyer to fly to daddy" Nicole replied
"Ok it's called an airport, a plane and a pilot, but no I can't do that" Ricky told her
"Then I'll ask daddy to come home" Nicole scoffed
"He can't, he's at work" Ricky told her, for the millionth time since he was back
"Then how does mommy have another baby in her belly? You said when we was at all those houses (hotels) daddy was working and mommy don't work at daddies work so how did mommy get a baby in her belly again then?" Nicole asked
"Well I- I don't know, I'm not your mother or your father" Ricky answered and sighed, needing a break from the kids, he regretted not going with Al, but he also knew he couldn't let Jaz alone with three kids while she's in her third trimester of her current pregnancy
