Leilani Moore is a girl of many talents and secrets. She has been working at a very successful stripclub in L.A. and has become one of the best dancers there. She thought her life couldn't get any better than this. Until she gets invited to breakfas...
*Leilani* ---- "Can mommy have some privacy, sweetheart?" I giggle, trying to get Mars to let go of me so I can get dressed. "How long will it take?" He looked up at me. His cute dark brown eyes looking into my light ones. "10 minutes. Go ask daddy to give you some Ice cream while you wait."
I kneeled down and kissed his forehead. "Okay mommy." He kissed my cheek and ran downstairs. "Careful!" I watch him cautiously. Once he's downstairs I go in the room and grab my black, long sleeved, bodycon dress the flows to my ankles.
I grabbed my black heels, and put my hair up into a ponytail. Once I was done I grabbed my coat and purse and headed back downstairs. Mars immediately ran to my and I picked him up. "See, I told you it would only take ten minutes." I smiled.
"Roman are you coming along?" Matteo asked following me and Mars outside. "No, you guys go ahead. I have something I need to take care of." He heads to his car. We walk to Matteo's car and I bucked Mars into his car seat.
Matteo opened my door for me and I got in the car. "So.... How have you been?" He asked, starting the car. "I've been good.... Somedays.. not so good. You?" I look over at him. He looks a whole lot different now. He grew out his hair, he has tattoos, and he's gotten buffer.
"I've been good... Been focusing on myself... And looking for you." He glanced over at me. "Really?" I question. "I mean yea. And then Roman texted me about his girlfriend name 'Leilani'. I just had to see if it was you." I saw tears in his eyes. "It hurt me to see you with my cousin, lani. But, there's nothing I can do."
I felt tears form. "It hurt me too. Seeing you after so long.... And not being able to be with you." I say quietly. "I never thought I would see you again." The tears rolled down my cheeks. "Mommy are you okay?" I looked back to see Mars looking at me.
"Yes sweetheart, Mommy's okay." I smile, wiping my tears away. "I need you back in my life Lani. Even if we don't get back together. I just can't live without you in my life." His voice broke a little. "I won't leave you. Either of you." I place my hand on his.
He takes my hand and kisses the back of it. "We're here." He says quietly, pulling into my parent's driveway. Matteo got out and unbuckled Mars. Once I got out Mars ran to me. "Can I hold your hand mommy?" My heart! He's so adorable. "of course my love." I grab his little hand and walk to the door.
I knock on the door. Ms.Anne opened the door. She's my parent's maid. "Madame Leilani." She greeted. "Hello Ms.Anne." I smile, leading Matteo and Mars inside. "Are my parents home?" I question. "Yes miss. They're in the living room." She answers.
We walk into the living room. Dad was he first to notice us. "Lei Lei... What are you doing here?" He took off his glasses. My mother looked up at me. Once she saw Mars and Matteo, she scrunched up her face. "We came for answers." I say sitting on the couch with Mars in my lap, Matteo sitting next to us.
"Matteo and I came for answers." I state, sternly. My mother cleared her throat and fixed her posture. "Why did you do this to us?" Matteo questioned. "Do you know how many nights Mars cried for his mommy to finally come home to him? Do you know how hard it is as a father to raise a baby on your own."
I placed my hand on his lap to calm him. "I'm so sorry... To all three of you. This was never my plan." Dad walked over to us slowly. I looked at him confused. "What do you mean?" I question. "It was my idea." My mother spoke up. "I should've known." I scoffed.
"It was for a good reason Leilani." she stated. "What was the 'good' reason that caused me to lose a healthy relationship and miss out on three years of my only child's life????" I asked, angrily. "You were not ready to be a mother Leilani. It would have only messed your future up. But you did that without the little runt."
I sat Mars in Matteo's lap and got up. "Don't you every talk about my baby! I can take you talking bad about me. But once he is brought into the situation, I will cause hell!." I blow up at her. "Lei Lei. Calm down." My dad placed his hand on my shoulder. "No, you need to get your wife! How can you just sit here and let her treat me like this!?"
I felt tears form. I just keep crying today.... "You know what.... Imma just leave. Don't expect me to come back until she can learn to love her damn daughter." I pick up Mars and walk out of the house with Matteo right on my heels.
"Where are we going now mommy?" I strapped Mars into his car seat. "Where ever daddy wants to go." I look over at Matteo, who was blushing. I got in the fron seat. "What? Not used to being called daddy?" I teased. "Just not used to you saying it." He mumbled. ---- We made it to a small shop. When we walked inside, it was filled with candies, pastries, and ice cream. "Wow!" Mars looked around the place. "Every child's dream." I giggled. "I've been wanting to bring him here, and you too." He led me over to the pastries.
"I bet you I still can remember which one is your favorite." He smiled. "Oh yea? Which one?" I placed my hands on my hips. "Let's see... Red velvet, Double chocolate chip, and Lemon." He said, smiling proudly. "You forgot one." I smiled.
"Impossible!" He looked back over all of the pastries. "Mousse chocolate cake." I smiled. "I always forget that one." He rubbed his chin. "Mommy! Daddy! Can I have this one?" We looked over to see Mars pointing at the ice cream flavors.
He was pointing at the chocolate chip ice cream. "Like mother, like son." Matteo chuckled. He got the ice cream for Mars and all of my favorite pastries for me. "I'm so glad I have you back in my life." I say quietly, laying my head on his shoulder.
"I'm glad to be back." He kissed the top of my head, as we watched Mars enjoy his ice cream and pastries. "He reminds me of you." He said, breaking the silence. "Really?" I looked up at him. "I mean yea. Look at him, he has all of your features and your attitude. You should see this kid when I tell him no." He chuckled. ---- "Can mommy come home with us?" Mars tugged on Matteo's dress shirt. Matteo looked at me, "Sure.. I fon't see why not... Let me pack a bag first." I say heading upstairs. I walk into my room and grabbed a bag, putting some night gowns and outfits in it.
"Where are you going?" I turn to see Roman in the doorway. "Matteo's.... Mars wants his mommy, so im gonna go for a few days. Plus you have to go back out of town don't you?" I zip up my bag and grab some shoes. "Yea.. Well I guess I'll see you when I come back." He walked out the room.
"Love you too." I say sarcastically. I grab my stuff and head downstairs. Matteo grabs my stuff and I pick up Mars. "Ready to go Lani?" I smiled t Matteo and nodded. ---- *End Of Chapter* ----
