Trappers 2: The truth

Chapter 17

Dallas POV

*

This morning I woke up earlier than Asiaa so KJ and I could leave with no problems. He was excited to hang with his little brother again. I still can't believe Maria is letting me still be there for him. I was sure I'd lost them forever. My mind couldn't help but wander to her crying in the kitchen to my mother yesterday. I wonder how she's holding up today.

"You ready man?" I just fed KJ so we're going to be on our way soon.

"Yup. Let's go." He beat me to the car. "I like having a little brother."

"I'm glad," I smiled. Both of my sons, best friends after one day. Maria's place was a ways away from us. At least an hour. We pulled up and KJ was so excited he forgot to take his seat belt off. I laughed. "Calm down KJ. They're not going anywhere." I knocked on the door.

"It's open," Maria said. She never locks the door. We walked inside.

"Hi daddy! Hi KJ!" Santi ran to us. Damn I missed the hell out of this kid. He pulled us into the living room where Maria was finishing up Harmony's hair. She's a really beautiful little girl. She was obviously mixed like Santi except his complexion was darker and she too looked like Maria's twin. Only difference is she's shy unlike Maria.

"Hey Maria," I sat down in one of the recliners. KJ went into Santi's room to play. Damn Maria looked good as hell. She was wearing these short shorts that hugged her body beautifully. She had her hair up in a messy bun at the top of her head.

"Hey. Say hi Harmony." She waved shyly. She's such a beautiful little girl. Just imagine her growing up. Lord she's going to have a time with all those horny boys. "Where are y'all going?"

"I was going to take them to the zoo and then the park. We'll eat and I'll bring them back. Harmony is coming right?"

"Yeah. Santi begged me all night. He loves monkeys but Harmony is terrified of them. She also hates walking so you may have to carry her from time to time. Santi is highly allergic to peanuts, can't even touch his skin. Harmony hates burgers with a fiery passion. They both love chicken tenders and fries. No candy of the sort. Ice cream is the only thing I'll allow. Santi likes rocky road and Harmony loves Oreo cookie ice cream. Got it?"

"Yeah." My phone started ringing. It was Asiaa. I ignored it because I don't have time to hear her mouth. "Maria?" she glanced my way. "I just...wanna apologize-"

"Don't."

"But I-"

"Dallas-"

"Kyng."

She glared at me. "DALLAS." Difficult ass. "I don't want nor do I need an apology. I accept and forgave you a long time ago. I accepted my role and yours in everything. We were both too damn stubborn for our own good. If we were meant to be things wouldn't have gotten that bad. I'm over it."

"Maria-"

"All done baby," she smiled at Harmony.

"Pretty mami," she smiled big.

"Come on Santi," she picked her up. "Time to go." They came running out the back and to the door. I followed behind Maria. She got Harmony's seat out of her car and buckled them in. "Y'all be good okay? Te amo hijo, hija." She kissed them.

"We won't be gone long," I said. She nodded and went back to the house. I just watched her. I guess I did fuck this up beyond repair. I sighed. "What was I expecting to happen anyways?"

"Yeah just keep monitoring but fall back a little," I told Jarrett the new plan.
