Together Against All Odds

1

Against all odds I see a gorgeous woman at the Dirty Robber my youngest brother owns.
I am drinking a beer when she approaches me and asks if she can sit because three bikers men are making her feel uncomfortable. I tell her sure gorgeous.  She blushes and I ask her what she like to drink.  She says a white wine.

Charlie please bring the lady Everlasting chardonnay. Coming right up Rizzoli.   So gorgeous do you have a name.  She smiles and answers.

Yes my name is Dr. Maura Isles. Mam here is your wine on the house.  I can pay for it.  No Rizzoli doesn't pay for anything only tips. Here's a tip. I am sorry only Rizzoli can.  I am a Rizzoli.  My mother was a Rizzoli.

Maura hand him a tip. He asks us what we want for lunch.  We order our lunch and we talk about what we do while waiting for our food to arrive . He brings out our food and we eat and finish our beverages.  She hands me her business card and we both leave a tip.  We leave.  I open my car door and noticed the men are preventing her from getting in her suv.

Excuse me babe you forgot your sunglasses.  Thank you. Ass holes let her in her vehicle or their will be problems you don't want. Leave us alone bitch and you bat for the other side. First I am not a bitch second yes we both bat for the other side.  I won't tell you again to let her in her car. 

My brother's approach us. Hey sis  you having a problem? Not me but they will if they don't let her leave.  Dr. Rizzoli she is that Rizzoli.  Yes she is. I told you three are not welcomed in my establishment.  If you show up again, you will be arrested and there is plenty of cops who will enforce besides my brother, police commissioner Chin. Detectives Raymund and Atwater.  We will leave.  They get on their motorcycles and leave.  Sorry Mam Charlie is new and doesn't know everyone who isn't welcome in my restaurant.  Cousin you been here only a month and already has problems.   Whatever Antonio. 

Maura says thank you and leaves. I thank the guys and leave.  I get in my car and honk the horn to get her attention.  She pulls over and I get out. She pushes the button on her window down and says thank you and hands me my sunglasses.

Maura I was wondering if you are available after work for dinner. Yes  how about Juanita's.  Do you know the place? Yes your step sister and my cousins restaurant.   How about we meet at 6 my treat for helping me out. Sure.  I will see you then gorgeous. You know we are related.  Yes but it's a fact you are gorgeous. Bye Jane.  Bye.

We get into our vehicles and leave.  I arrive at work and park in the garage.

I enter the evelevsror and get out and see my niece.

Baby girl do you have some time we can talk? Sure auntie give me a few minutes and I will come to your office.

I say hello to my secretary and she hands me my cases for today and messages.  I tell her I don't want to be disturbed except for family only.  I enter my office and put the items she gave me on my desk along with my purse.

Auntie what's up? Close the door.

Avery closes the door and sits down.

Baby girl I saw a beautiful woman and we ate lunch at the Dirty Robber.  Cool did you ask her out? Yes we are meeting at Juanita's.   There is just one problem.  She is my cousin.  Oh not good. Yeah tell me about it. She is aunt Esmi's daughter one of the identical twins. Which one? Maura.  I like her. Auntie I  don't know what to tell you.  We haven't seen the twins in years.  What are you going to do? I am not sure.  She knows your family and intersex. Yes if she remembers I am intersex. Auntie the family may not see this as good but if you are both okay with it and don't have any kids . You should be okay once everyone accepts it. If she is willing to go  beyond dinner.  You both are well off so it's not like you are going after one another's monies.  Just think about it and talk to her. What do you think? Auntie it will be uncomfortable in the beginning, but will adjust.  Thanks for your honesty.  Always auntie. I am off to the jail.  Love you . Love you too.
I call my daughter Julianne Rizzoli aka baby girl too and asks for her  feedback . She says the same as Avery.  I call a few others and they agree with the others.  I definitely have a lot to think about and I don't even know if she would like to be in a relationship.  We haven't seen one another, since we were kids. I have photos of us and others too.  I read my messages and contact some via by phone or email. I start working on my  new assigned cases.
