Some Kisses Should Yearn

Chapter 10

"So, Ashka. We don't know much about you." Jax suddenly stated making the whole room go quiet.

"What would you like to know?" She asked with a warm smile.

"Where did you move from? Why did you move to Charming? What do you do for work?" Jax inquired making Chibs grunt.

"Isn't that a few too many questions?" Chibs stated.

"It's ok." She tapped Chibs' knee again to calm him down, "I moved from Mesquite, Texas. I just needed a change of scenery so I took a map, closed my eyes and let my finger fall. That's how I chose Charming. I work as a lawyer at the firm here in town." Ashka answered all the blonde's questions.

"Wow. Ok." Jax chuckled.

"Where did you learn to cook?" Gemma asked.

"My Grandmother and mother taught me all about cooking and baking." Ashka replied with a smile.

"Have any siblings?" Juice asked the same time as Bobby asked, "What do you do with your time off?"

"I have four older brothers and I'm the baby of the family." She chuckled, "I binge watch shows on Netflix and Hulu. I read and scrapbook a lot. I love to travel when I can take the time off to do so. Nothing too exciting, I guess."

"Four older brothers? Must've been a loud household!" Gemma laughed.

"Most definitely! Mom pampered me since I was the baby and only girl. I remember my brothers and their friends coming home from football practice and it always sounded like an elephant herd stampeding through the house!" Ashka stated making everyone laugh too.

"Where's your favorite place to visit so far?" Ratboy inquired.

"Probably Jamaica or Hawaii. Our dad got lucky and was given orders for Hawaii so we lived there for four years." Ashka replied.

"Given orders?" Tig furrowed his brows.

"Oh. My dad was a career marine. Retired with full honors when he finally retired a while back." Ashka told the group.

"Wow. What does your mom do? Or does she work?" Jax asked making Chibs huff again.

They were getting entirely too personal for his liking although he did like finding things out about her.

"She's a nurse. She immediately went to college to be a nurse after she graduated high school." Ashka answered.

"Wow. You must've had a wild childhood." Juice laughed making her laugh too.

"It was wild but it was fun. Got to see places others only dream about." Ashka shrugged.

"What made you decide you wanted to be a lawyer?" Jax inquired as his wife sat on the arm of the chair looking over Ashka with a slight sneer.

"I was really good in debate class in high school and my guidance counselor suggested I take an aptitude test to see what I'd be good at. Seeing as how it suggested I become a lawyer, I decided to take their advice and go to law school." She explained.

"What about your brothers? What do they do for a living?" Bobby asked.

"My oldest followed in our dad's footsteps and joined the Marines. He wants to make a career out of it. My next oldest went to medical school to become a trauma surgeon. The next to last oldest went to dental school to become a dentist. He has his own practice now. The youngest brother is a video game designer." She answered.

"Wow. You guys are all over the map in careers!" Juice laughed making a few of the others laugh too including Ashka.

"Yeah but we're all very happy with what we decided to do with our lives." She smiled at the mohawked Puerto Rican.
