I Figured It Out | Jemi

Demi smiled as Kean ran over to her giving her a big hug, Demi hugged him back kissing his hair gently. He then pulled away giving Willa a hug waving up at Carter who was in her arms. He allowed Demi to take his bag swinging it over her own shoulder before she took his hand so he wouldn't run off. He was a good boy anyway.

"Why you not at work?" Kean questioned.

"Mommy has the day off today so the four of us are going to go to the park for a little bit then go eat out for dinner. Does that sound good?" Demi questioned her son.

"Yeah!" He exclaimed making her giggle. They continued to walk home where they dropped Kean's bag off then heading further down the street to where the park was. It wasn't far at all. It was a massive park, it had climbing frames for children of all ages but it also stretched out for miles of vast forests. A lot of people go walking in the forests as trails are laid out. Demi liked a good walk but not when Kean was born, he took up most of her time now.

"Alright go play for a bit but don't move from the climbing frame, if you want to go elsewhere come tell mommy first alright?" Demi questioned pulling his shirt down a bit after he took his jumper off. Kean nodded his head kissing her on the cheek before he ran off with Carter. Demi and Willa sat down on a nearby bench which gave them both a perfect view of the park in case something went wrong with either of the boys.

"How's wedding planning going?" Demi started up a conversation.

"It's getting there, Colton and I have sorted out the guest list and they'll be out soon. You should find a date to bring." Demi sighed shaking her head.

"I don't have time for dating, I've told you before." Demi insisted.

"Of course you do Demi, you need to make time because you deserve to be happy. I know your still mourning over Liam a bit but he would want you to be happy." Willa encouraged.

"I-I don't know if I can replace him Willa." Demi admitted.

"If I set you up with someone will you go on the date?" Demi sighed thinking about it. "For me?" Demi couldn't help but laugh nodding her head.

"Fine I'll go but I'm not promising that I'll stay with the guy." Demi gave up.

"That's all I ask for," Willa stated.

Kean and Carter had found a ball to play with that another mom had offered to them. They were only throwing it to one another, they will still a little young to play soccer or anything. Demi watched as Carter through it as hard as he could landing behind Kean and into the bushes behind them which led out into the forest.

"Go get it Kean." Demi approved once he looked in her direction, he ran off towards the bush Demi watching him the whole time as Carter ran back over to his mom. Demi became concerned when he was taking a little long to come back out with the boy, it had been a while to say it hadn't rolled too far into the forest area. It was a little while longer when he came back just as Demi was going to give up and go find him but she grew concerned when she saw him crying.

"Kean what's wrong?" Willa questioned.

"Man won't wake up?!" He cried into his mother, both their eyes widened slightly thinking they knew what had happened. Demi moved Kean so he was hugging Willa instead beginning to enter the forest area herself. She searched for a bit finding the bal making sure she had it to give back to the mother then continuing. It was a little while longer when her eyes landed on a man laid down on the floor his head buried in the dirt. His skin was pale Demi doubting that there was any life left in him, she couldn't help but sob as she phoned the police. She felt for the poor man and his family but she was worried about Kean. A five year old shouldn't have seen a dead body.
