A lifetime of hello's and too many goodbyes.

Part 3

This kid has been through hell and back.

Ever since Manuel saw Maximillion, he's been having bad nightmares just about every night, I wanted to kill Maximillion for what he did to that boy. Cece came into the room he said Manuel is alright come to bed, I told him I'll be there in a few minutes he's sleeping so peaceful right now, but this is the time he wakes up screaming, I just want to be here for him.

James, you once told me that I spent too much time with Manuel, now you see why, bae said it took him awhile to see that he needs us, and he won't let anyone hurt him ever again, I kissed him and said take his time, Manuel needs him more than I do right now. I walked out of the room, and before I could get to our room, Manuel started screaming, I ran back to his room James already had him in his arm, bae is rocking him and telling him it's going to be alright. I sat in the chair, I wanted to cry, how could anyone hurt a child.

Bae said Manuel wet the bed, I told him I'll put him in the tub, James said he'll do it, I can change the bedding, James took Manuel to his bathroom, I changed the bedding, I couldn't hold back the tears, damn that Maximillion. I wish James had finished what he started.

I looked in the bathroom and bae had Manuel in the tub, Manuel said he was sorry for wetting the bed, James told him it's not his fault, and he's going to help him get better, I walked back into the bedroom and the bed was to wet to put the fresh bedding on, bae came in and said we'll get a new bed for him, he can sleep in another room, I told him I'll get the bed in the morning, that poor baby.

Cece why don't you get some sleep, you have meetings all day tomorrow, I'm going to call someone about Manuel, and deal with Maximillion, Cece told me as much as he wants me to kill Maximillion I can't do that, or he and Manuel won't have me and that won't help Manuel.

I told him I won't kill him, but he'll never hurt another kid again, I went back into the bathroom with Manuel, I dried him off and Cece brought in some pajamas he told Manuel good night, the kid put the pajamas on and I took him to another room, I put him in bed and he asked me to stay with him until he goes back to sleep he promises not to wake up screaming and wake Cece up.

I stayed with him, later I woke up and Cece is asleep in a chair, Manuel is still sleeping too, I went into our room and checked the time, it's seven thirty in the morning, I got changed and headed to where Maximillion has his yacht docked, I told Cece I wouldn't kill him but only if he gives me the answers I want.

Before I left, I checked on them, they're both still asleep, I left the room and went down the back stairs, as I got to the door Liz asked me where I am going since I don't have on my running shorts, I told her I have to take care of something, I'll be right back. I left out the door and got in my car and headed to the docks, I had to tell myself don't kill Maximillion.

I got to the docks and I saw two of his bodyguards, one of them I let live the last time, I told Cece I wouldn't kill Maximillion, I said nothing about his men, I got out of the car and stepped on board the yacht, one of the men said I can't be here, he knows who I am, so leave so he won't have to hurt me.

I pushed his ass in the water, I told the other man if he doesn't want that expensive suit wet get the fuck out of my way, he tried me and now his ass is knocked out, I went straight to Maximillion's state room he was still in bed, I closed the door behind me and said wake the fuck up you son of a bitch, he woke up and saw me and reached for a gun, I punched him in the face and emptied the gun, he asked me what did I want.

I'm only going to ask you this once, and if you don't tell me the truth, I'll hurt you, see I promised someone I wouldn't kill you so you're lucky that person made me promise.

Now tell me why the fuck or you are fucking with kids, are you into the child trafficking, and don't lie to me.

Okay James, I was into that, but I got out it's too risky, as far as that kid, I didn't know he was, I stopped what I was saying, James said he's what don't make him hurt me, he started to punch me in the face again.  I told him I didn't know the kid was mine, he knows I have a wife even though we don't really live together, she could take half of everything I have if she found out about that kid.
