Letty
Pov:
"Dom,'' I say surprised
"Letty," he says.
I stand frozen for a min before I slam the door in his face.
Why was he here?, to talk shit to be again?
"Let, can u open the door please?,' he asks.
"Y are u here?," I ask cracking the door open after I put Bubba down to play with his blocks.
Dom
Pov:
"I just want to talk to u, okay?," I say carefully.
"We can talk like this,'' she says hiding behind the door.
"I promise I won't hurt u, I will never lay a hand on u that way again. I promise," I say holding my hands up.
She looks unsure for a moment buy opens the door.
I walk in slowly and take a look at my surroundings.
She had two white furnished couches, with a cherry wood table in the middle of her living room. A little boy was sitting on the ground playing with blocks while mumbling to himself.
He would build then knock them down and laugh about it.
"Whose this?," I ask as I turn to her.
She had her arms crossed, in a way of trying to protect herself.
"My son," she says slowly.
I freeze in place, a son?
" u have a son, so u killed our baby and had one with someone else," I ask slightly raising my voice, inching forward. I wasn't planning on hitting her but I could see the fear in her eyes so I back away again.
"No, he's our son," she whispers so quietly I could hardly hear her.
"What?," I ask softly.
"I'm sorry!," she says starting to sob.
"I wanted to tell u but u wouldn't return my calls, and I was scared to go near u because u threatened me,' she says between sobs.
I felt so bad making her feel this way.
"I never killed him, I couldn't go through with it but u wouldn't let me tell u," she says while picking our son up and holding him close to her.
I'm such an freaking asshole.
I walk over to her and pull her tightly against my chest.
"I promise I will never touch u that way again, I promise on everything. I will be here for everything, I will never leave ur side. I will love u everyday, and tell u how beautiful u are. And I will sit with u while we watch our son grow. And hopefully if u forgive me we'll have more babies, and you'll be my wife, because I want to marry u. All these years I've been looking for u, I was so scared that I would never find u again. And I would have to live with the guilt knowing u were too scared to even come near me.
Leticia Ortiz I love u more than I love myself. Please, please forgive me baby. I will go with baby steps if I have to," I say holding her face between my hands.
"I have to think about it,'' she says backing away.
"I understand," I say shoving my hands in my pockets.
"Can I-I- I hold him?,'' I stutter.
She nods and hands him to me.
He had wild dark curly hair with big dark drown eyes. He's the perfect mix of us.
"Hi," I say grabbing his hand.
"Da," he coos, I look up at Letty.
"I showed him pictures of u and stuff," she says shyly putting her head down.
"I think u, mommy, and I should be a family," I ask him tickling his stomach while he giggles uncontrollably.
"What's that smell?," I ask after it started smelling like something was burning.
'' oh my god the chicken," she says running through a doorway that I guess leads in there. I follow her.
I walk in while she's pulling a chicken out the oven.
"Well Bubba I guess it's cereal for tonight," she says talking to....
"Let what's his name?," I ask while she cleans up the mess.
"Issac," she responded.
"Issac," I repeat, I like it.
She had a nice little home perfect for a little family like us. If she agrees to be with me again.
"Mama!," Issac squeals and starts squirming in my arms.
"Hold on bubby, I know ur hungry,'' she says.
"I can feed him. If u want?," I say.
"It's fine," she says coming over and grabbing him out my arms.
Before she walks off though she leans in and kisses me.
"Baby steps," she says winking.
We're gonna be alright. I smile.
