Laying in my bed I thought about Damion. He has been on my mind heavy lately. One reason being his birthday is coming up and he's not here to celebrate it with me. I can't say this had gotten easy for me cause it hasn't.
Time has passed and it's only gotten worse. Looking my son in the face everyday has me so depressed at times. He has started asking me questions and so has Destiny. All I can do is say he was a good man and father.
Tears started building up in my eyes as soon as they fell there was a knock on my door.
"Come in." I said sadly.
In comes DJ. He got in the bed next to me and wrapped his arms around me.
"Why are you crying mama?" He asked immediately.
"How you know I was even crying?"
"Cause I saw you trying to wipe those tears quick when I walked in. What is it? Is this about my father?" DJ asked looking me straight in the eyes.
"Yes son. I just miss him so much. I loved him so much. And for him to be taken away from me the way he was has me so hurt and confused."
"What did he take you from? Who was you with that hurt you so bad?"
This is the one conversation that I have been dodging with my kids. They don't know that I was married and with Jac before their dad. They don't know the relationship history either.
"DJ that is not important." Anastasia said trying to get him off the subject.
"Yes it is mama. Whoever this fool is has got to be dealt with. He hurt my mama and caused my daddy to be killed. I want to see him." DJ said getting mad.
"DJ I said leave that alone alright."
"Mama why you want tell me what is going on? I'm a big boy. I can handle it. It's my job to protect you and my sister. So tell me."
Anastasia sat up on the side of the bed. She took a deep breath and looked back at her son. She didn't want to tell him what really happened. It was alot and she didn't want to relive that.
"Mama I am your son and that was my father. We deserve to know what happened. At least tell us that." He said giving her that look.
"Fine. Go get your sister and we will have the talk." Anastasia said.
DJ got up and called his sister to the room. She came in and sat at the foot of the bed.
"What is it DJ?" Destiny asked.
"Mama wants to talk with us about pops."
"What about him?"
"Well that's what I called you in here for. Your brother wants to know what happened to cause him to die and who I was with."
"I want to know too. Cause obviously it's still a sore thumb for you." Destiny said to her mom.
Anastasia stood up and looked at them. She took a few deep breaths and sat in the chair at her vanity table.
"Kids I was married when me and your father got together. It was a toxic marriage and I met your father through my ex husband."
"Now when you say you met him was this a first time meet or you already knew him?" DJ asked.
Anastasia looked away for a few seconds and looked back at them with tears falling down her cheeks.
"Mama why are you crying?" Destiny asked.
"Baby this is hard for me to discuss. But to answer your question Damion was childhood friends with him."
"Mama! You fucked his best friend?" DJ blurted out.
"Watch your damn mouth boy. And it was not like that."
"Then how was it? Cause it sounds to me you caused this shit."
"DJ if I tell you one more time to watch your mouth I will knock you in it. Shut up and let me explain." Anastasia said getting angry.
"Now I was faithful to my ex husband. He cheated on me with a woman on his job. Damion came to me and told me what was going on. One thing led to another and be told me he has always wanted to date me. My ex was not treating me good and wanted to leave me but because of our agreement I couldn't divorce him."
"What agreement?" Destiny asked.
"That's a long story and different day. But we ended up dating and we ended up pregnant. He was helping me divorce him and we moved in here together."
"So let me get this straight. This man treated you like a dog cheated on you and my pops loved you through it all?" DJ asked.
"Yes he did. Not only did he cheat on me but he got his mistress pregnant and practically moved in with her leaving me home all by myself."
"Who is this so called ex?" DJ asked.
"Is that really important?" Anastasia asked.
"Yes it is. And who is this woman? I need to check them." Destiny said with DJ agreeing.
"No. It's not important. Besides you can't check him anyway."
"Why I can't?" DJ asked.
"Cause he's dead."
Everyone looked at each other with a crazy look on their faces.
"Wait a minute. Pause. He's dead?" Destiny said.
"Yes he's dead. But the mistress isn't." Anastasia said.
"Mama What is his name? You going all around the world for this. If he is dead it really don't matter if we know his name or not. So who is this man?" DJ said waiting on her to response.
Anastasia took another deep breath and looked at her kids.
"His name was Jacques Moore and his mistress name is Sherie Zanders. They had a daughter and her name is Princess Moore."
DJ mouth fell open. He stood up and walked to his mom.
"Mama her name is what?"
"Her name is Sherie. And her daughter is Princess."
"What the fuck? That's my girl and her mama." DJ said.
Everyone was shocked at the news that was giving to them.
