Friendship

Chapter 4: Double Trouble

[Mrs. Kurusu's POV]

My dearest son, Daniel is in very much trouble. When it comes to the thoughts of a mother she must be very concern. A mother's job is to care for the ones she loves. I heard many parents don't care about their kids and a kid needs someone to show that they are cared. No matter how old my boy gets, I'll be a proud mama and grandmother.

Jennifer watched Ari as I was cooking up some yakisoba. Yakisoba is Daniel's favorite and I thought of my sweetie. I know it might be usual for anyone, but I'm going to make it.

"Mrs. Kurusu, what is that lovely smell?" Jennifer asked. I laughed and smiled  "Jennifer, this is yakisoba. It's Daniel's favorite dish to eat so I'm making it since he's back home. It feels odd eating it without Daniel." I said as I was cutting up some carrots.

"Mrs. Kurusu..." I heard a low spirit. I looked back and Jennifer was looking down. I stopped cutting carrots and walked up to her.

"Is something wrong, Jen?" I asked feeling worried. Not many people were upset that I saw.

"How did you meet Maria..?" she asked and I held her.

"I met her... Well... She was walking with Daniel back to the house and I was worried of her parents were going to be upset that she wasn't home yet or something, but I let her inside and we ate normally. She had a innocent and happy personality on the outside,  but I knew there were something wrong on the inside. I guess I was correct about her." I said pouring some hot tea.

"Thank you... Didn't you think it was weird that she followed him all the time?" Jennifer asked.

"I sure did... I didn't want to ruin Daniel's happiness so all I did was just watch him grow and see him living with a serial killer." I said sighing.

I heard the door open and it was Daniel with a box of formula and more food. I sat and watched him put it by the front door. There was another man behind him with little ones on a stroller. The man was tattooed on his arms that I can see. He had long black hair with a tiny moon tattoo by his left eye.

"James? Is that you?" I questioned as I felt happy.

"Hello Mrs. Kurusu! Yes, It's me!!! Remember I would play Pokemon with your son?" he said as he giggled.

"I didn't know you had twins!!!" I said as I bent down to say hi to them.

"To my left, this is Isaiah. The other one is Brendon... she's a girl, but she likes wearing Isaiah's clothes so I bought more clothes that they both can wear." James said laughing.

"Yes, yes. Come on guys! I made some food!" I said as I brought bowls and chopsticks to the table .

"Mom, yakisoba???" Daniel said as he was the first one to finish his bowl.

I watched Ari playing with her toys with Brendon and Isaiah. I think they would be good friends soon. I really do think.

"Mom!" Daniel shouted.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"I thought of moving with James and  Jennifer to New York. We are going to be all neighbors in this new apartment they will make in a few months. I called and they said we can all live in the same floor. I think this is great. " Daniel felt really excited. I am not going to stop him because that's what he needs. He needs to get away from Maria and that's what I am letting him do.

"Well, I am glad! Hopefully you guys will like it there in New York." I said smiling brightly. "I'm hoping the most on these little ones especially Ari.

[Daniel's POV]
Jennifer, James, Brendon, and Isaiah left the house and I decided to take a shower before I let Ari fall asleep.
"Come here Ari..." I carried her and took her into my old room and layer there.

"I'll do the best."

[James POV]
I was surprised that nobody asked me about who was the mother of the kids.... I know most people would ask that question... She just... She just left us and the kids never knew her and I fear if they might ask sometime in the future.
I laid them into their small baby cribs and I laid on my bed watching Family Guy. There's always something missing but you don't realize what it is.

When you're a father of twins there's double the crying and double the trouble
