Inevitable Turns

64.Hard Decisions

Joshua's P.O.V

My mind spinning with memories from since I was a toddler,the amazing family I always had by my side,the happy times with each person all of it only possible because of everything that happened in the past.In some way I guess mom did give me a amazing life but the fact of a possibility of another life with the person who is my biological dad I wouldn't lie to say I'd have loves to see how it would be.

Walking into the gym here in Queens I spot my little sis,the amazing fiesty little shorty I was took care of. To know that she really isn't me sister is unbelievable because we've been inseparable forever.She always managed to be a happy soul full od joy parading around our house.The one who the grandparents no doubt loved the most. Guess the great joy of being her bigger bro wouldn't have been possible either then. I smile watching her continuously punch a guy cracking even bone he could have remembering how we both learned boxing and then gymnastics together when we were small. I'd been pumping with excitement for my first class and got a bloody nose but was worth seeing the other guy knocked out.Mom was a bit vary about Mace so I thought her the basics before she joined. It's been long since we've had a match,smirking I unbutton my shirt and grab some gloves and spare boxing shorts.

"At least pick on someone your own size Shorty,"she turns around to look at me in surprise.

"Nice to know you're short Spiky,"she smirks making me chuckle as the other guy leaves thanking me. We have keep goign at each other punching,jabing and kicking until Mace calls it quits getting exhausted.

"McDonalds,I'll pay?" I ask her as she nods happy to the sound of food.Guess she hadn't eaten much before the shoot. We both go to change and then walk to my bike.I toss her the keys knowing how she loves the thrill of my bike but can never have too much fun since I always take it to Manhattan with me. Smirking she revs it and I know we both want to drag this talk till we're comfortable and I know she'll need more time coz she barely even knows Reed or anything other than him being mom's ex fiancé and my biological dad and the CEO of the company I work at.

Ordering what we want we sit at the table waiting for it.

"Look you'll always-,"I say as she says, "Nothing can ever-."We both chuckle knowing we finally are ready to speak.

"I'll go first,"I smile as she nods. "You'll always be my sis to me Mace no matter what.I've lived my enter life with you and dad that I don't feel the fact that my biological dad is someone else has to affect our relationship.Yes,it's strange and bit weird about the entire truth but I would love you to still accept me as you brother,"she smiles controlling the tears in her eyes.

"Nothing can ever change the way I feel about you Josh.I love you,you're the best bro a girl could ever ask for,"Mace fights back the tears hugging me as I wrap my arm around her.

"I love you too Shorty,"I kiss the top of her head tears dropping from my eyes. "You mean everything to me,"I smile against her head knowing that there are few women in my life I can't live with.The top being Iz and then my mom and Mace.

"Cuddle time nice and why the hel didn't you'll tell me you came to visit?"we hear Ty's voice making us chuckle as we leave our embrace

"Visit,you should have come to our house few hours back. You would have had the show of your life,"Mace chuckles as I shake my head. "This Reed was mom's ex fiancé and apparently Josh's biological dad,"she says as Ty's eyes pop out.

"Uncle Reed?He still exists? Holy shit Josh,I never knew",Ty says as Mace and I both stare at him like he was mad. What did he mean by exist?He thought he was dead? "When I was small Uncle Reed was this amazing guy who brought gifts and spend a lot of time with me.We went to park together and then suddenly one day he just disappered. No one ever told me what happened to him so I assumed he was dead,"my mind already knows the day.I tell Ty and Mace the entire story about my mom and both dad apparently, their psychotic love story.

"No I get how he knew you,"I remember Reed asking my mom if Ty was Uncle L's son.

"Damn,who would have thought Joshua Felix Ryan Coleman would be the son of a CEO.You must be rolling in dollars,"Ty laughs as I chuckle shaking my head and realize my own name.I've never looked at in this way but now I could see it.Coleman coz I wasn't Rayleigh's son and not Rivera because I'm registered under dad.That's the reason's for mom's surname. Ryan was for Reed's dad.How didn't I ever see that,I answer myself, coz I never thought my life would turn out like .

I call Iz through Mace's phone that I'll reach be coming late since my phone and bag is at work.Being on Queens I decide to pay a visit to the woman carrying my godchild,the one and only mama Cassy. I smile looking at the love in Ty and Cass' eyes as they talk about their child glad to know that this child will like a happy life with a family who already loves her so much.I think about all these little moment and more that Reed missed of my life and how he ever lived with it.At the end of the dad family was the ones who truly cared for you,the one who'd take a bullet for you and the one who would sacrifice everything in their power only for you to be happy.
