"So, when could we have another date?" I asked Julliet as we stood outside my car.
"Whenever you ask me to another." She smiled.
"How about tomorrow?" I suggested.
"That soon?" She asked.
"Yeah." I replied seriously.
"Ok. Tomorrow it is." She nodded.
"Am I going to at least get a kiss before I go?" I asked with my eyes moving back and forth between her eyes and her lips.
"I don't see why not." She shrugged, causing me to lean in to her as I placed my finger beneath her chin and take her lips in a passionate kiss.
"I missed those." I smirked at her as we pulled away from the kiss, causing her to blush.
"So do I." She admitted as she bit her lower lips.
I leaned into her once more, kissing her again for a bit longer and a bit more passionately.
"Goodnight Jules." I whispered against her lips after breaking our kiss.
"Goodnight Geo." She smiled.
"Seven tomorrow." I pecked her lips.
"I'd be ready." She assured me.
Pulling up away from her completely, I got into my car and backed out of her driveway as she made her way inside.

"How was the kiss?" Krystopher snickered as I entered the house.
"It was amazing and stop spying on me and your Dad." I rolled my eyes.
"Me and Guilia have been trying everything to get you to back together and now it's actually happening, we want all the tea, sis." He smirked.
"You two are a trip." I shook my head.
"Now, we just need to get you some of Dad's ding-a-ling." He laughed.
"Me and your father intend to take it extremely slow this time around, ok?"
"But you kissed him." He stale faced me.
"He asked nicely and he was a gentleman all night." I reasoned. ,"He deserved some kisses."
"He deserved a, Thank you for the date, sir." He chuckled.
"Child, you are such a trip." I shook my head. "And your Dad told me about the girls you bring to his house." I smirked.
"Dad's a snitch." He scowled. "Nevermind, no coochie for him." He said making me laugh out loud.
"Mommy, when are we going to see Daddy again?" Junior asked.
"You could see him tomorrow, baby." I said as I picked him up and kissed his cheeks.
"I like him." He announced.
"That's wonderful, babe." I commented. "He likes you too."
"Don't like him, Junior, he's a snitch." Krys butted in.
"What's a snitch, Krys?" Junior asked.
"A tattle-tale." Krys replied.
"Don't bother with Krys, Junior. He's just salty." I giggled.
"You defending ya' man now, girl!" Krys sassed. "You go, girl!" He continued with his tomfoolery. "Defend ya' man!" He snapped his fingers, making me laugh.
"Krys, you should consider stand up comedy as a career option." I suggested.
"I'm only good at comedy because the bitches love it, mom." He said, making me stale face him.
"Goodnight Krys. Me and your brother are going to bed." I walked away from him dismissively.

"How was your date?" I asked as soon as Dad walked through the door.
"It was wonderful." He smiled.
"You like her?" I asked with my eyes narrowed at him.
"I always have and it's been way beyond like for years now." He shrugged out of his jacket, making me scoff.
"You know, Mom is so in love with you and you always keep trying to replace her." I fumed. "She hasn't been with anyone and she has a dildo for that purpose, but you've been in and out of these women you barely even know." I ranted then folded my arms across my chest and huffed.
"Well, I was with your Mom, so..." He trailed, causing my face to soften.
"Really?" I asked, instantly perking up.
"Yup." He shrugged.
"How was it?" I asked, now excitedly.
"It was great." He responded as he headed up the stairs toward me and passed me, causing me to follow him to his room.
"So, do you think you guys are going to work it out?" I pried.
"I met your brother." He shrugged.
"Uh-oh." My eyes widened. "Is that bad."
"Nope." He shook his head. "It went well." He informed me.
"Ok, but are you guys going to work it out or not?" I stressed.
"I'm not sure, Lia." He shrugged. "We're taking it slow and see how it goes." He replied.
"Did you guys at least share a kiss?"
"What is it with you kids playing detectives?" He asked.
"We just want you and Mom to find happiness with each other." I shrugged.
"Your mom and I will figure it out in due time."
"And you can't see other women." I added.
"Ok Lia." He sighed. "I won't see other women."
"Good, because I almost whooped Arianne's ass for wearing Mom's ring." I huffed, causing him to chuckle.
"You're wild." He shook his head. "Reminds me of your mother." He smiled.
"Well, that should be a great thing." I smirked.
"It's a beautiful thing." He nodded. "Just do better than a man like me." He advised.
"You're not bad, old man." I shrugged. "You're good looking and you've been committed to Mom forever. You may step out occasionally, but that's about it."
"Yeah, it's the stepping out part I don't want you to deal with or accept."
"So why did you do it to Mom?" I asked.
"I was young and dumb." He reasoned.
"And when you did it the other day?" I asked.
"I was being dumb and I ready thought that your Mom was done with me." He sighed. "But I'mma try to do right by her this time around." He shrugged. "If she gives me the chance."
"She'd give you the chance, Dad." I assured him. "Five years is a long time to wait on someone to even admit they miss you and she waited." I explained. "If she was going to divorce you, she would've done it by now." I shrugged.
"I guess you Youngings are right." He chuckled.
"I love you, Daddy." I said as I hugged him.
"I love you too, Baby girl."
