Setting down dad's suitcases, he looked around the unit and was pretty impressed. He sat down on the bed, before he laid down and completely stretched out..
"Oh, this is just perfect!"
"Glad you like it."
"Do you have time to stay for a little while?"
"Yes, Demitri and Luca are at my condo, emptying it. They insisted they do it and I be here enjoying myself with you."
"Where's my granddaughter?"
"With your nephew and his husband."
"Maddox has my granddaughter?"
"Yes. And my dogs, too."
"He babysits your dogs as well?"
"Yes, his son, Ares, is in love with Hunt and Hero."
"I see. Maddox having a son, how the times have changed."
It was no secret about the hardships Maddox had experienced as a young man and losing his first-born child. While the young women he had the baby with left the hospital that day, for a long time, part of Maddox had to have lingered there. Hell, he had even got a vasectomy and been pretty good at keeping on it, to make sure it was still successful. Ares is proof enough that it had failed after some time.
"I'll gently see if I can table the idea for Maddox to bring his husband and Ares here to meet you."
"I haven't earned that, Theo. Maddox is fiercely protective of his family. We know this."
"Maddox is a changed man. You never know."
"If he is uncomfortable with the idea, then leave it at that and don't push for my sake."
Sitting up, dad got up and walked over to the couch, sitting down again. He honestly seemed very comfortable here.
"Do you want to unpack your things?" I said, looking at dad's five large suitcases. He had plenty of space in here to put all the things he brought. It was just surprising that he narrowed it down to only five. Dad owned a lot of clothing and other junk that you would have expected him to part with.
Opening the only navy blue suitcase, It was full of pictures, and other strange things.
"Dad, where do you intend to put all this?"
"Oh! Those are my keepsakes, Theo. I'm going to put them on my dresser top or maybe the wall stand over there."
"I see. Are you sure you got everything from the house that you wanted?"
"Yes. The rest of it doesn't matter. Can you believe it sold as quickly as possible?" Dad said excitedly, unaware that it was acquired by Lev and Alessio. When Maddox told me, he didn't know for what reason they had bought it, just that it was private and not going to be used or owned for Mafia reasons.
Lev and Alessio pretty much asked for all the furniture that we didn't want, if I could leave it in the home. Maddox worked as the middleman for us, since Alessio and Lev were away, but we settled and they paid Maddox, and that was the end of it. At some point in the next few weeks, Demitri, Luca and I had to take the kitchen, playing the great swap. Moving all the kitchen appliances from our home into my dad's and taking his back to ours.
Lev and Alessio were aware of the switch they were told from the beginning and were ok with it. I was glad that for the most part there wasn't much work to do at dads to make it move in ready for them.
"Theo?"
"Yes?"
"A lot is going on in your head?"
"Sort of."
