After I and Ryan were ready, we left in my car since Ryan wanted to go on it. First we went to this really cute diner and ate till our hearts content. For appetizers we shared mozzarella sticks and for mains Ryan had chicken fingers with a side of baked potatoes and sautéed vegetables while I had spicy buffalo wings with grilled vegetables. We also had chocolate mousse in dessert.
After having our stomach full we went to next part. “Where are we going now, Alex?” Ryan asked as I settled him in his car seat. I just smiled at him and adjusted him to make sure it is secured. “Hold on tight buddy. You will know in a few minutes.” With that we were off to our next destination.
We reached the mall and Ryan looked at me confused. I just booped his nose and walked us into the mall. Going to 2nd floor of the mall and going right we reach my surprise. I looked down at Ryan to see his reaction.
Ryan looked a little confused but soon his expression changed to surprise and excitement. Ryan looked at me with the big smile that I love and always want on him. I returned the warm smile and gestured forward, “Shall we?” Ryan looked forward at the entrance of Build-A-Bear and skipped in while I followed.
The store had was popping bright colors everywhere. All types and shapes and sizes soft toys. Children and their parents or guardians walking around. I told Ryan to choose any type of soft toy of any size and as many as he wanted. Ryan went towards the different types of soft toys cut out and looked through it.
I stood behind him as he was selecting. After few minutes Ryan came back with just one soft toy of Toothless. “Hey buddy, is that all you want. You know you could get more than one.” I said as we walked towards the worker to stuff the toy. Ryan looked at me and asked, “Can I?” Oh my gosh this boy. “Of course love. As many as you want.” So we went back to get more and now Ryan had five more toys. Ryan explained how he wanted to buy one for everyone. So we got one for everyone

After filling those toys with the cotton and putting in red little hearts in them we were ready to go. By the time we were out of the mall it was already late. I carried all the stuffed toys and other things like clothes, shoes, and school stuff etc. back to the car while making sure Ryan was with me all the time. I placed all the things in the back seat and again helped the Ryan in his car seat as well. When I was sure that Ryan was comfortable and secured I went and sat in the driver’s seat starting the car. Hearing the satisfying purr of the engine we were off towards our home.
After about 5 minutes I looked behind me to see that Ryan was asleep with his new toy in his arms. I smiled thinking how peaceful he looks. Thinking back to the day when I first met him, He looked so scared and now seeing him smiling and laughing, being so carefree is just so heartwarming. You could say I’m so proud of how he has improved and how strong he has been. I connected my phone to the car and played a soft music to lull him to sleep.
We were halfway through our home when I noticed something. The road was pretty much deserted at this time. There were three weirdos standing in a corner, looking like crowding someone. I drove my car nearer to them and that’s when I saw, a beautifully middle aged lady was trying to push one of the jerk away from her while the other two were standing behind him.
I parked my car at a distance and after making sure that Ryan was still sleeping I got out of the car the car and went to punish some fuckers. I. walked towards the group without being noticed. Ughh these assholes. I went behind one the guy and kicked the back of his knees causing him to stumble and fall while the other to looked at what just happened. I looked at the lady and noticed she looked so scared. She looked at me and her eyes widened. The assholes looked at me while I stood in front of the lady. “Are you okay, ma’am? Did they hurt you anywhere, ma’am?” I asked while looking at her up and down for any injuries. Noticing none and getting confirmation from her too I turned back to this fuckers.
“Well well well, seems like today is our lucky day. Not one but two pussies to fuck.” I looked at the guy who said this with disgust. And they say monsters are just in our mind, they are fortunate that they don’t have to deal with such kind of monsters in their life. Well I’m not one of the fortunate ones. I had already seen such monsters in one of the foster homes.
I just kept my face blank while looking at all these bastards. One of the guy who had fallen down let’s call him Asshole 1 stood up and moved to grab the lady’s hand. I caught his hand before he could touch her and punched him in the face. I heard a crack probably breaking his jaw and heard him groan. “You bitch.” The one who was pining the lady earlier growled Asshole 2, said. He leapt towards me but I kicked him the stomach causing him to fall on his ass. The last guy Asshole 3 and 1 whole had recovered both came at the same time. I kicked one of them in the face and punched other on face. I stood up straight when I felt something behind me.
I frowned and looked behind and saw the Asshole 2 face first on the ground passed out. I looked up and saw the lady holding a brick in her hand. I smirked realizing what she did. Looking at the other two and they were passed out too. After making sure these guys were passed out I went towards the lady. As I was about to say something she hugged me. “Thank you so much. I was so scared and I didn’t knew what to do. Thank you so so much dear.” She said while hugging me. I smiled at that and asked her to wait in the car till the police arrives.
I called Mr. Brown, the officer that helped with the Ryan’s foster parents. When I helped the lady in the car, I noticed that Ryan was awake and looked around scared and ready to cry. I quickly opened the backseat door and when Ryan saw I was there the tears started to fall. I quickly took him in my arms and started to whisper softly. “It’s okay buddy. I’m here. Nothings going to happen to you. You are safe. Remember I promised.” I rubbed his back while continuing to sooth him. Soon he stopped crying and cutely rubbed his eyes.
When he had settled down I wiped the remaining tears softly and kissed his forehead. He leaned his head on my shoulder no wonder still tired. Thank God tomorrow is holiday. When I saw Ryan looking behind me, he asked “Who’s that?” When the lady noticed that Ryan was talking about her she smiled warmly towards us. I don’t know why but I feel like I have seen her somewhere but not exactly her.
“Hello sweetie, I’m Bella. And what’s your name dear?” Bella asked. Ryan looked at me and back to her and back to me figuring if he should say his name. I nodded at him and he shyly said, “Ryan.” Bella chuckled at her shyness and looked at me. “I’m Alexandria but you could call me Alex, ma’am.” “Please call me Bella, Alex. I wish we could have met under different situation. But I would always be thankful to you.” After that we all sat in the car waiting for the cops to arrive, which didn’t took that long.
After the cops took the assholes away and Mr. Brown took our statements we were ready to go. “It’s late Bella, let me drop you home.” I said as I looked at her. She looked hesitant but agreed. It wasn’t that far of the drive and the roads were familiar. Oh that’s right Dom lives in this neighborhood. I was shocked to see that the direction she gave was actually of Dom’s house.
When we reached her home, I saw Dom pacing in front of the house with his phone clutched in his hand tightly. Beside him was Noah who was talking on the phone with the frown. When Dom saw the car in front of his house he looked up with guarded eyes but frowned when he noticed it was my car. I parked the car and told Ryan to stay in while me and Bella stepped out.
