Chapter.24 THE WAY WERE

       🎶 LISTEN TO THE MUSIC 🎶

  Michael and Kayla face the unexpected 

The car ride on the way home from the Veterans Ball was a quiet one for Troy and Khris. Neither one of them knew what to say to the other. Khris stared out the window and Troy kept his eyes on the road.

Troy remembered the first day he had seen Michael. Tall, lanky kid who literally got off the bus with a scruffy bag on one shoulder and a huge chip on the other. Troy couldn't figure him out. He had volunteered, yet he acted like being there was something he didn't want to do.

Troy believed that is what initially intrigued him about the young man. He looked over Michael's files. Born and raised in New York, father unknown, mother Meredith gave birth rights over to her sister Sarah and her husband Heath when he was six. He had a few hospital records. Broken arm, bruises, stab wound to the left shoulder. Jesus, this kid had been through quite a bit.

So instead of going the old "hard ass" Commander route, Troy was nice yet stern with Michael. It seemed to break down a few walls this kid had up that no one else could get through.

Troy had never had a son, and figured if he had, his would have been quite different than Michael, but there was something about this kid that touched him. And he was so serious all damn the time, but when he smiled, it would make whoever was around want to smile too. Why the hell had everything gone so wrong?

When Troy and Khris reached the house, Khris turned to him and asked, "Do you want me to go look for her?"

Troy sighed and shook his head 'no'. "She's with him, and he can get out of control sometimes. I wouldn't want anything to happen," he said, exiting the car.

This was really killing Khris, he wanted to go find her. He didn't want her being hurt, he had seen how she crumpled to the floor when he had taken the phone away from her at the hair salon, and how devastated she had looked when she saw Michael earlier tonight with another woman.

When they entered the house, Troy walked into his study and shut the door. He sat down and put his head into his hands, he just wanted everything to stop. Or for things to go back to a more comfortable time. When Kayla was a young girl, and Michael was a young hot-headed kid who would listen to his every word.

Why couldn't he turn back the hands of time to those days? Before shit got so complicated.

But there was something else plaguing Troy. He had tried to block it out, but he had heard Michael say it loud and clear. 'You don't want me as a part of your family anymore, huh?! Well, I just might be in nine months, motherfucker!'

Jesus, all of this was happening way too fucking fast. Kayla had just delivered a massive string of tantrums because he threatened to pull her tuition, yet obviously, unless Michael was bluffing, she might not even be going to school due to other complications. He was so confused; he couldn't think about that anymore.

But deep-down Troy had to face what he feared the most. Why he objected to Kayla and Michael's relationship, in Kayla, he saw his ex-wife Sasha. Someone who made impulsive decisions without thinking and ruined their family. Over his dead body, would be the only way Kayla would follow that path.
