Love You Goodbye-Book 4 In the Sexy As Series

Chapter 68

Ahmir sat on the deck with his parents and his sister and brother. It was unseasonably warm for October, even for California.

Zayn and Kaia had made lunch and they decided to eat it outside. After they ate, Destiny wanted to walk on the beach with her mummy leaving Karim and Ahmir with their papa.

"Son," Zayn said as he looked at Ahmir. "Are you alright?"

He looked at his papa and shrugged his shoulders.

Zayn picked Karim up in his arms and walked over to sit next to his oldest. "What's going on?" He asked. "Is it school? Sissy?"

"Papa, when are we going to go home to England?"

"I'm hoping soon, but right now mummy and I are working on some new music while you and Destiny are at school. Grandpa Bruce is here," he said. He hated to admit he himself was missing home. He was hoping to talk to Kaia about going home sooner than later.

Ahmir sighed heavily and looked out at the beach. "I want to go home."

"I know you do, Ahmir," he said. "We just need to give mummy a little more time to spend with her father."

"He can come to visit us," Ahmir said. "Papa, can I use your phone?"

"Who are you planning on calling?" He asked. "Do you have a girlfriend at school?" He teased.

"Papa!" Ahmir protested. "Can I?"

"Who would you like to call?"

"T."

Zayn couldn't help but smile. "Come on, it is in the house," he said. "I need to put your brother down for his nap anyway and then you can call T."

"No!" Karim protested.

Zayn couldn't help but smirk at his youngest. "Oh yes it is," he said and carried him to his room and laid him down and put on some of his favorite music before going to get his phone. He went to his contacts and opened up Marian's name. He found Ahmir in the living room anxiously waiting for him.  "When you're ready just hit call," he said handing Ahmir the phone.

"Thank you, Papa." He waited until his papa left the room and he hit call. 

"Hello, my little lion cub," Marian beamed as she answered the phone.  "How are you? Are you okay? Do you need help with your Halloween costume?"

 Ahmir couldn't help but smile when she answered the phone. "T!" He said. "I'm...I'm okay."

 "Sweetheart, what is wrong? I can hear it in your voice." She sighed. She missed her little Ahmir so much. She was used to cuddling up with him and watching a film.  "You can tell me anything, my love."

He sighed heavily and glanced towards the doorway to make sure his mummy and papa weren't listening. "I hate California. I want to come home to London."

"Oh, Ahmir," Marian said looking over at Fatih in her playpen.  "I know you do, I wish you could come home to London too. It was so hard for me to leave with your family staying behind. I wish I could help," she admitted. "Can you talk to papa about this?" 

"He said he misses home too but we have to stay here for mummy. For a little while," he said sadly.

"I can talk Papa for you. Anything for you my love. Maybe I can talk Papa into bringing you home to London. Letting your mum and sissy stay behind. As long as you don't mind helping me with Faith."

"Wouldn't mummy be sad?" He asked. "I miss you T. I miss watching movies with you. And I hate getting picked on at school. "

"Mummy wants to stay in Californian to be with her dad. Plus she will have papa and sissy with her," She explained. "If you are really unhappy with California I would love it for you to come live with me until they come home to London," she said.  "How about I talk to Papa and see what he says. Would that make you feel better?" she wondered and hoped she wasn't overstepping her bounds.
