--Julliet Parris--
"My husband's cheating on me, Julliet." Thalia randomly blurted causing me to drop my fork on to my plate as I looked up at her in shock and disbelief.
"Are you sure?" I asked, not being too sure of what else to say.
"Yes." She sighed. "I'm sure." She shoved another forkful of salad into her mouth.
We were having lunch together and she had been asking for relationship advise all along, however, I didn't suspect that Elliot had been cheating on her.
"Thalia, I don't know what to say." I admitted. "I mean, are you willing to make it work?" I asked.
"I am, but what if he isn't?" She shrugged.
"Oh, well, all you have to do really is put your foot down and confront him, then you give him the choice to stop and work shit out or get a divorce. If it's a divorce, then you make sure you get your fair settlement." I advised.
"Your approach with Geovanni..." She trailed off, but I knew where it was going.
"May not work for Elliott. That's why I didn't encourage you to do that." I explained, causing her to nod. "And Thalia, the harsh reality is, he might not want it to work out."
"I know." She nodded. "I'm prepared for that." She sighed.
"You're a beautiful woman. It will be easy for you to find someone else if things don't work in your favor."
"Thanks." She offered a weak smile.
"You're welcome." I shrugged. "Don't let it get you down. Split up for a while if you have to even." I advised.
--Geovanni Parris--
"Where you going?" I asked Elliott as he got up from the couch and grabbed his backpack.
"Home." He shrugged. "I got a wife and kid you know." He chuckled a bit.
"Your wife is out with my wife." I narrowed my eyes at him.
"I'm going to fix her some food." I furrowed my brows at him.
"It's a lunch date that Thalia and Julliet are on." I was growing suspicious of him. "Do y'all have problems?" I questioned. "It seem like the communication is lapsing." I continued.
"We're fine, Geo." He huffed. "I'd catch you later, alright?"
"Alright." I replied as I watched him leave, shrugging my shoulders and restarting the game, switching to single player mode. "Weird."
•°•°•°•
"How was your lil' date with Thalia?" I asked Julliet ask watched her stop out of her clothes. She stood in the middle of our room with just her bra and panties on, then she took the bra off, causing my eyes to drop toward her perfectly rounded breasts.
"It was good." She shrugged, turning around, revealing the thong in her ass. My wood immediately became hard at the sight of her.
"Put clothes on, Jules." I growled from my spot on the bed.
"Maybe, I don't want to." She shrugged.
"You want to get dicked down?" I asked.
"Why not?" She turned toward me, smirking, before she began walking toward the bed, climbing on to it and straddling me. "The kids aren't here." She licked her lips. "No distractions." She purred into my ear before licking it's lobe.
She brought her face to my own and kissed me passionately, making me grab her butt and moan into the kiss.

"Hey." I greeted my dad as he got into the car.
"Hi baby girl. How's everything been?" He asked as he buckled his seat belt.
"Things are fine." I replied as I backed out of his driveway. "I'm trying to have another child." I confided, while putting the car in drive and pulling off.
"Oh yeah?" He asked. "And Geo's ok with that?"
"Yes sir, he is." I smiled.
"Well, that's wonderful." He smiled back. "What makes you want another baby anyway?" He asked.
"Well, I've wanted a boy since before we had Krystopher and it never really worked out that way. He ended up expecting a baby by another woman and I got pregnant later, but conceived Genovia instead of a Geovanni Jr." I shrugged.
"It must've been upsetting when that other girl showed up pregnant, huh?"
"It was, but she ended up passing away and that was even more upsetting." I admitted. "I had formed a bond with her, you know?"
"I understand, baby, but isn't that sort of a sign that's somehow that little boy was always meant to be yours and that's why she passed away, making him yours by default?"
"I have and I love Krys as if he's my own. Lia always refers to him as a Momma's Boy, because it's true, he's my tail, but I want to birth a son, Dad." I confided.
"You know, Geovanni's mother and I once had an affair." He admitted, making my eyes go wide and my breath hitch in the back of my throat.
"No, Geo is not your brother. We did a test, but I always wanted a son and your mother gave me you, but when Geo was born and I was having this affair with his mom." He explained, causing me to relax. "I was hoping that he was mine." He chuckled a bit. "I mean, his father and I would've no longer had a friendship, but I selfishly wanted him to be mine. It didn't work out that way and years later they both died and he became mine."
"Were you in love with his mother?" I asked.
"Nope." He sighed. "Nor did she love me. We just found each other attractive and we had sex a few times, but I respected her and cared for her."
"And vice-versa." I added.
"Yup." He shrugged. "I understood Geovanni's position in your relationship many times." He shrugged. "I didn't always agree, but I always understood." He admitted.
"How did you feel about me taking a divorce?" I asked.
"I didn't agree, but I understood why you did it." He chuckled. "I wasn't sure about it working out either, but surprisingly it did."
"Yeah." I sighed. "I wasn't even sure myself. I was scared to death." I shrugged. "Always wondering if it'll actually scare him into getting right, but what a relief I felt when it did."
"Yeah, just make sure that you both keep working on it." He advised. "Problems will always come and go, but it up to you two to decide if you're going to let them get in the way of what you have or not."
