Say It Isn't So

Nothing But Time

Janessa & Destiny

Hopping of I-75 and pulling up outside Destiny condo I get out the car to see her standing at the door waiting on me with that sexy smirk she makes that I just lust over. " Took you long enough nae nae, and don't you look beautiful today " Des says as I get out the car walking to give her a hug and kiss swear this girl still makes my heart melt after all this time. She knows my love for her will always be raw and true. After giving destiny a kiss I follow behind her to living room and mane my eyes was on her ass the whole time she knew it too that's why she slowed down and made me run into her ass. Right as I was about to say something Jordan came running to me screaming mommy, I lifted him up hugging him. " Are you ready for school big boy, we'll be leaving in a few just need to talk to your mommy first " I tell him to go sit down while I go talk to his Des for a minute. I motion destiny upstairs to her bedroom cracking the door behind her when she walks in " So why we couldn't talk in the kitchen wassup " says des . " Because I wanna know how you doing, where your mind been at " " I'm honestly good, I feel like I can finally say I'm truly and effortlessly happy within myself and although I still have nightmares of that night, I'm thankful for it cause I got a beautiful son out of it" " Well I'm happy to hear that, that's it I just wanted to check up on you " " Thanks " " You don't have to thank me you know I'm always here " " I know and that's why I have to say thank you because when I felt like the whole world was crumbling beneath me you help me realize that hard times gone come but I can make it through " " That's what I'm here for but I got to go babygirl before me and Jordan are late " " Okay I'll see you later " I walked out her room heading to living to get Jordan " let's go baby boy " Gave des one last kiss goodbye and headed out I had 30 minutes to get to work which wasn't bad because Des lived 10 minutes from my job and Jordan went to a little private school down the street from my office . I pull up at his school taking him inside and letting him know I'll be back to get him after school. Heading into my work building I go threw security being greeted by my favorite office mason " How are you doing today ma'am " " Great as always mason, you have a wonderful day " I headed up to the third floor and walked into my office " Direct all of my calls to me today, I'm willing to pick up 4 new cases " I said to my secretary Miah . " Yes ma'am but you have a reporter here to speak with you about the case " " Send him in " " Hello I'm a reporter from 10News and we got information that you are currently the provider for Jason Salama and we were just wondering if we could get any information on it, a quote or a little insight on what's going on with the case .." " This is what I will tell you and quote me on it Jason is a 5 year old Puerto Rican baby he was locked in a dog cage for 4 weeks and 7 days in his house garage . Jason grew up with his mother and father as a only child in Austin TX, after his father died in a massive military casualty in germany, and the family says when Jason mother found out she lost it and shut the world out .. after 4 weeks of nobody hearing from her the family decided to break in the house finding Jason mother dead upstairs in her husband business office where she killed herself and Jason in the garage bruised up, barely breathing in a dog cage . Jason is currently at Austin memorial hospital where he is in critical condition but expected to heal within time. Once that has happened he will be placed in foster care, I am acting as his social worker and current provider. That is all that will be said, you have a great day " Watching miah escort the reporter out I got to thinking about destiny and how much I miss what we had, but is she ready for us again or am I ready to put work aside and be in a committed relationship again .
