Storm (interracial)

Haboob

This war couldn't have come at the worst time. Now that I have my own family it puts things in a different perspective.  I really didn't want to be still doing this right at this point in life but this is the life and there is no turning back now.  I owed Micky big time and now that the time has come to return the favor I couldn't even bring myself to be excited about it like I would have been in the past.  Storm and I are in a better place and even though the old man drives me insane, I actually cherish the fact that he and lady are here. I only wish everyone could live in harmony.

Lost in my thoughts I didn't hear Storm enter the room. "Morning babe. Are you okay?" She said with a sleepy, groggy voice.

"Yeah just thinking about the shit storm that is fixing to occur. I have a feeling that something really bad is about to happen."

"Why would you say that? You guys are more than capable to handle this quickly." She said like what I'd just said was nothing of concern.

"That's the problem. I know they're no match for us but I can't help but feel like somethings amidst.

"Don't overthink it.  You all got this and the sooner you can finish it the better."  I really want us to live a nice, comfortable life with our children, so get this done as soon as possible.

"I want that too, more than you will ever know."  I said while kissing her on her forehead. I breathed her in already missing the smell that I'd become so accustomed too. Placing both palms of my hands on her face I stare at her. Committing every blemish and flaw to memory. Knowing that I needed to leave at the moment put me in a slight funk however it would be all over the sooner I moved. Well I wish I could stay but I have to get going. We're taking a vacation when this is all over with."

"Sure that sound awesome. I can can start planning and surprise you with it."

"As long as the place is relaxing and stress free I'm good."

"Oh trust me it will be." She said giving me a kiss.

"Okay love.  Let me get going.  After all I do have a lot to do.

Days have turned into weeks, and weeks into months.  We were right where we needed to be and we were getting them at every angle.  We lost plenty of good men but they lost more than their fair share.  I was already over this war shit and more than ready to be back with my family.  I was missing my little ones like crazy.  Not that I didn't get to see them it was just the waking up in the morning or in the middle of the night.  I just missed my family.  Storm had been busting herself with planning "the ultimate trip" as she dubbed it and keeping me up with the kids.  I pulled out my phone and scrolled through the countless pictures that she sent to me of our children.  As I took a swish of the amber liquor I realized that I, the Arian Kadriovski, was homesick and I wasn't upset at that fact at all. My phone rung disrupting me from my thoughts only to form a huge smile on my face. It was Storm calling me.

"Hey my love.  I said answering the phone.

"Babe how much longer?" She asked a little irritated. 

"Not much longer.  It shouldn't be much longer." I say somewhat unsure.

She sighs and precedes to say, "Well that sounds better than what you told me last week.  I just can't wait to surprise you.  Oh you're going to love it."  She says rambling on.  She continues to speak about our getaway as I drift off into deep thought.  After some time she yells my name to get my attention. Earth to Arian!  Are you listening to me babe?  Hello Arian?"

"Yes love I'm here.  Just tired is all."  Truth was I was tired of the situation however I was both mentally and physically tired and I was just plain sick of it, this feeling that I couldn't shake.

"Well go and get yourself some rest and we'll talk later.  I love you and you come back to us okay. 

"Love you too and always."

If I want to get back to my family then I better get this shit over with. First things first me an my father will be heading to the states to get everything orchestrated to take these fuckers down. Sometimes you have to hit them where it hurts.

Their pockets.

Weaken there monetary flow and it shouldn't be long until they crumble.  America, I hadn't been back since we left.  Even the restaurant was sold. Didn't think that I'd ever go back under these conditions.  A vacation yes but a war, I thought those days had passed. Needing to see if Marco was good to go I dug in my pocket to retrieve my phone and dialed his number.

"What do you want?" Marco barked into the phone as if I was an annoyance.

Not wanting to entertain his antics I simply replied, "We leave in thirty."

"Alright, I'll be ready."  Was all he said and hung up the phone.

After saying my goodbyes to my family and a long ass flight we finally made it to the states.  The air was always different here.  It was fresh and peace like back at home, however the opportunity to make money was endless.  Something that I didn't miss surprisingly.  I was content with being a family man. 

"Are you ready to get this shit over with old man." I said to Marco while getting into the back of a car that was waiting for us. 

"Yep, sure am. I'm ready to fuck some shit up."  Blow some shit to smithereens,  blow some brains out....."

"Alright, alright, alright.  I get the picture.  Geese you would think at your age that you would be more humble." I said to him cutting him off. 

" Don't interrupt me when I'm speaking numb nuts."

"Whatever, so what's next." 

"You're going to check us in while I meet up with some contacts that owe me a few favors.  I'll let you know something as soon as possible."

The rest of the drive was thankfully quiet.   Oce making it to the hotel I check us end while Marco goes off and take care whatever it is he has planned, I make a call to Storm to let her know that we made it here safely. 

"Hey what are you guys up to." I say to her as soon as she picks up. 

"Well I was trying to stay up for your call but I fell asleep at some point while waiting." She said groggily into the phone.

"Sorry for waking you but I just had to hear your voice.  How are my little ones?"

"They miss you cause your little girl kept looking around like you were going to pop out at any minute.  Lady was able to get her to sleep since they've have this special bond between the two of them." 

"I glad that Lady is there with you guys.  I wouldn't trust anyone else with all.  I hate to let you go but you need your beauty rest.  We probably will not have the time to talk much while I'm here so you all take care and kiss my little ones for me.  I love you all."

"This really sucks.  I miss you already.  We love you too.  Farewell my love."

I laugh a little at the farewell part.  " You sound like some sap from some sappy romance novel."

"Whatever, I was just feeling a little bit nostalgic.  I don't how all of this will play out so I'm really trying to stay optimistic over here.  Who know what will happen.  You could like die."

" Look don't worry yourself and don't think like that."

"I can't help it.  You've cheated death and did a lot of wrong.  I'm just praying that your time isn't now you know." 

Not liking where this conversation was going I sigh and said a tad bit irritated, "Just stop it, right now.  I'll call you when ever I can okay. 

"Okay." She responded but she sound off.  Something wasn't right but I couldn't focus on that at the moment. I'd ask her about it later. 

"I love and I'll talk to you later okay."

"I love you too, forever. Bye bye.

I looked at the receiver like something was wrong with it.  Not wanting to push the conversation any further I left it as is.  We needed to have a serious talk about her strange behavior.  "Bye."
