Ash POV
It's been 4 years A'kyrah and Peyton are still missing. We even got the police involved but they can't find them. A piece of me dies every day their gone. Dime tries to help but there's nothing she can do. Nothing I can do. I've been pushing her away lately. She's been so loving and supportive but am I going to do. I feel that they are not dead I know it. I don't know how I just do. I didn't even get to hold them. I didn't see them walk for the first time. I didn't hear their first words. I only know what they look like because Dime took pictures of them. We moved back to Florida actually we all did. The lost of my twins devastated a lot of people. Every time we get a trail we are all disappointed. We'll be so so close then bam! We lost them again. I'm so numb. Why can't I be happy? I have Dime, I love her dumb self but I want our kids back. I haven't rested very good sense. I'm paranoid all the time. I just want them back
"Baby" Dime waved her hand in my face with a worried look on her face. "Yes, love? What do you need?" I sighed. A grin spread across her face "I wanna take you out to a drive-in movie. We need to get out the house baby." She caressed my cheek with the pad of her thumb
"I know. I know. I don't wanna argue anymore about this so I guess"I smiled rolling my eyes at her. All she wants to do is make me happy. I love that about her. She thinks I blame her for the twins. I told her I didn't. But then again if she wouldn't have left we might still have A'kyrah and Peyton. Just saying.
She put her hands out for me to grab and she pulled my body off the couch and turned music on and started dancing to Rock With You by Michael Jackson in a goofy manner. She threw our hands up and swayed her hips and sung along "I want to Rock With you" and she pointed at me and I nodded my head "alll night" . I rolled my eyes. I'm not giving in. "Dance with you" she continued dancing in front of me "sunlight" I sang along starting to laugh. Oh, fuck it. I started to dance along with her and she spun me around smiling while dipping me. I changed the song to Fantasia When I Met You. We stopped dancing as this song came on.
When I met you
I never knew
'bout other things you see me through
When I met you
I never knew
'Bout other things that we would do
Then I met you
When I met you
I met me tooThis song describes us a little. I think that's why I love it so much. I just let the song play. She pulled me into her embrace on instinct I wrapped my arms around her torso and placed my head in the crook of her neck and we swayed back in forth to the song.
"You think we're ever going to find them?" My voice was muffled in her neck. She giggled just a little because of the vibration. "Yes. We will. I will find them even if it kills me. I promise you that"She whispered rubbing the small of my back.
"Dominique you can't promise -" " I promise you. I will find them trust me, Ashley. "She cut my sentence short pulling away. She pecked my lips for once I believed her.
"Come on we have to go get groceries." I laughed putting my shoes on and grabbing my keys.
At the Grocery Store
As I'm walking down the aisle, I heard some noise. It was a baby crying. I looked down the aisle and I look and see this woman struggling with three kids. One toddler, one baby, and one that looks about 8 or 9. My heart tugged at strings, A'kyrah and Peyton..where are you two? I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to see Dime "I know baby, let's get what we need and go to a different aisle. "Is it possible to miss people you never met or laid eyes upon so much?" I teared up. I looked over to Dime her jaw was clenched. Her face turned red and her fist clenched. She ran and cut through the aisle with a surgeons precision.
I heard a loud thud and looked to see her pinning someone against the freezer doors in the aisle. I ran over to her. "Where are they!"She screamed slamming her fist next to the woman's head. She's so familiar...Debbie? I then got infuriated as well along with her. I pushed Dime off and punched Debbie in her face and she fell to the ground and I kicked her over and over in the stomach. "Where are OUR kids you stupid bitch. I know you took them!!!"I kicked her with every word I said. She coughed up blood and I saw two little kids run up beside her. "Auntie D. Are you okay," The little girl said shoving me away. She was so little I didn't move...Is that A'kyrah? Please Jesus, let it be "A'kyrah?" I spoke and the little girls head spun around to me. She stared at me in awe and walked up to me and I kneeled down. She touched my cheek and as if she knew who I was for just a second she turned away. "Where's your Mom you shouldn't be with dangerous people," Dime said in shock. The little girl frowned. "I have two moms, they gave me and P up" This is A'kyrah she is so beautiful. I just didn't know what to say. I looked over at Debbie and she looked terrified and snatched up A'kyrah and ran. Dime and I chased after her and cut through the crowd ad we heard giggles, most likely from A'kyrah she probably thought this was a joke if only she knew her Moms didn't give her up. I broke down into tears, we lost her again. They are in Florida, they must live close if we saw them
Debbie POV
"No lie boss she saw her and beat my ass" I sighed, how could I be so dumb. I never got caught. I never wanted to take them babies but I needed the money. I knew Ashley and Dominique were moving here that's why I had Boss relocate us here. I knew that he'd slit my throat where I stand himself. what did I get myself into? God, I'm so stupid. I had to lie to those two precious babies about their moms.
"Obviously. Did A'kyrah recognize her or did they share a moment" He yelled and I jumped "A moment" I shook my head. I heard the twins yelling at each other "Gotta go duty calls" I hung up so quickly. I know the punishment for that but I don't give a shit. I ran into the room and saw them fighting over a toy. "Stop" I yelled and they jumped and dropped the toy.
"Auntie D he tried, no who was that pretty lady at the store"Her eyes glimmered. I knew that was coming. Should I say it. "She's family."
"Did she know my Mommies?" Peyton jumped up and down. She is your Mommy "Yeah she did" I said instead. It's hard lying to them.
