The Mess We Made

Chapter 3

Danny's POV

I woke up at 9 am as my alarm rang. Took a quick shower and changed into formal clothes, as I would be following Ms. Kang around today.

I put my suit jacket outside on the dining table chair so that I can pick it up quickly later. I folded all the dried clothes. Later knocking and then opened the guest room door.

Alfie was still sleeping. I put all his clothes and undergarments on the dressing table. "Get up," I said kicking him and picking up the blanket that was on the floor. I shook him a couple more times, finally waking him up finally. "Go take a shower I'm going to make breakfast. What do you want?" I asked him as he sat up blinking a couple of times while still not fully awake. "Eggs Bacon OJ" he said, stretching and yawning. "Ok. Go freshen up. I have put your clothes on the dresser" I left the room as he nodded with his eyes closed.

I started making coffee first then the juice. Once done I put bread in the toaster and started making egg on one stove and bacon on the other.

I was done with one plate when Alfie came out dressed in jogger and a casual t-shirt. Pouring himself a glass of OJ and put the toast on his plate. He sat on the table eating quietly.

"You slept well?" I asked him and he nodded as his mouth was full.

I put my plate and cup of coffee down on the table when the bell rang.

I looked at the time and realized who it could be.

"Good Morning, He's having breakfast. Try not to yell as it's too early for me." I said as soon as I opened the door.

Mom didn't say anything as she walked in. She looked oddly calm, which was scary. I looked at Spencer behind Mama. All three of them entered as the bodyguard stood outside.

"You guys want anything?" I asked as Moms sat down on the couch. "Coffee?" Mama said and I nodded. "Just water for me," Mom added.

"Spencer can you give me a hand?" I asked and she quickly walked towards me. "What's going on? They are too calm. It's scary." I whispered as I poured a glass of water and then coffee.

"They are not listening. He's going to be disowned" Spencer said worried. "hmm" I said as I quickly tried to think of something. I placed the tray on the coffee table.

I picked up my coffee cup and chugged it. Taking a deep breath I stay down in front of mom. "Ok I would like an opportunity to explain Alfie's side." I said but mom stopped me by raising her hand.

"We know the whole story. This is all because we gave you guys everything you asked for. All of you are a mess. We are not going to support him anymore all his accounts have been blocked. He can fend for himself. He's 18 and we did all we could but now if he wants to be an adult so bad he can live on his own."

"No mom please I'm sorry" Alfie said kneeling down in front of Moms.

"Give him another chance. I will look after him" I blurted out without thinking. Leaving everyone in shock, even myself. "Give him another chance. I will make sure he graduates and gets into a good college. We all know he's a good student. This was his last mistake. I will make sure of it. If I call you and tell you I'm giving up too and like there is no hope then you can disown him." I added. Moms looked at each other then at Alfie. "Please last chance moms please" Alfie said doing his puppy dog face as if on cue a teardrop rolled down his cheek.

"Ok." Mama said. Yes! I knew she would be the first to melt. "But your probation is still on. If you get fired you will be disowned too." Mom added. "Yes of course," I said, nodding. Something feels wrong. That was too easy.
