Two weeks went by, and Steven settled into the idea of sharing his life and house with Calista. He had made room for her in the office and had got her a desk. He was on the phone when she walked in the door.
“Yes, dad.” He said as he looked slightly mad. “I know.”
He was walking around as she placed her things down in the living room and went to the Kitchen. She heard him again, “ Dad, she is the best thing to ever have happened to me. No, she didn’t know about the money. She isn’t like your girlfriends.”
“Steven.” She said softly, and he turned to her. He had explained that his family wouldn’t be as accepting as hers was.
“Dad, No, I want you to listen to me. I have known her for years. I do not care that she is so much younger than I am. I love her dad. There is something you won’t hear me say again with anyone else. Now, if you have a problem with
Six months later……..All four of the men in the unit were on edge. Krissy would walk in, and they all would watch her. She shouldn’t be at work, and they knew it. Not only was she beyond her due date, and extremely large all of their wives were s well. Though no one would actually say it.“What?” Krissy asked as she looked at them.“Why don’t you go sit down, please, honey?” Mark asked.“Guys, I am not going into labor this second.” She said. “Neither are the girls.”“You are handling this a little too calmly,” Steven said as he ran his fingers through his hair.“Yeah, mom,” Yuri said.“I swear one day I will shoot you, Yuri,” Krissy said. “Honestly, I want you all to know if the girls all go into labor at the same time, which by the way, is a sure-fire way for Mark to go insane. It will
Friday came in like a storm. Steven got the first phone call at five in the morning. Gina was in the hospital, and they expected the baby within an hour. Calista wanted to go to the hospital. Knowing that everyone else would be there when she stood up, she felt the telltale sign of her water breaking. She calmly went over to the drawer and took out a dry pair of pants, and changed as Steven looked at her with a question.“I have to go to the hospital regardless of my sister,” Calista said softly. “Your son wants to meet his new cousin.”“What?” Steven said as he looked at her. Just then, the first wave of pain ripped through her body.“Soon,” Calista said. “The car is packed?”“Yes,” Steven said as he looked at his tiny wife.“Then, we should go.” She said softly, trying to remain calm for his sake.“Calista?” Steven as
Chapter oneBoogs Akechi, whose real name is Greg, was now finally twenty-two. He had joined the army when he had turned eighteen, just like his adopted father and where his mother had worked for the most of his life. Three of his brothers-in-law also worked with his mom and dad. They had met and married when he was nine years old when his sister Rin was abducted and left for dead by her boyfriend at the time. Since then, he had watched his parents and his older sisters all moved on with their lives. Reena had married Yuri, and they now had three kids. They had a set of twins that were born the same day as his other sister’s babies and the last set of babies his parents had. Gina had married Maleek, and they had four kids now. Lista had three kids with her husband, Steven.He was coming home from being deployed overseas, and he expected the entire group there waiting for him. His dad had retired from the military now. His mother, a doc
As they got to the house that had gone through a few upgrades since he was back home. He looked at the outside, and he knew he was home. He went to the door, and he heard all the people and the younger kids in there. As soon as the door opened, he was overwhelmed by all the people there to see him. His uncles, Sisters and their families, and all the younger kids. He was hugged more times than he knew was possible.The kids all wanted some of his attention as he noted who had changed the most. The Flowers, his two younger sisters that were named after flowers, were the ones who had changed enough to be remarked on. Matthew was also reaching close to his height as well. He knew this was how it would be if he stayed in. He would miss so much of everything.“So when are you going over there? “Lista asked with a laugh.“what?” Greg asked as he looked at his next oldest sister.“Don't try to ignore
After everyone packed up, and it was just the family. Krissy went off to herd all the little ones to bed. They all were wound up and not ready for it, but they wouldn't give their mother too much trouble. They would play with Mark until they fell asleep. Greg looked at the organized chaos and shook his head."Looks like a chow hall." Mark said as he chuckled. "if it was something good.""Well, I do have to think you might be right." Greg laughed. "I was thinking it was more like boot camp.""Well, your mother is a drill sergeant at times," Mark said with another deep chuckle. "So I will go help her in a bit. She knows I would give in to them, but after the second time they are out of bed, they will listen if I look at them a certain way. That is coming up soon. So here.""Why are you giving me your keys?" Greg asked as he looked at the item his dad was handing over."Surprise or not, we both know you are going across tow
The two were locked together, and they both knew that things were changing really quickly between them. The kiss deepened even more, and soon they had lost track of time. Greg pulled up first though he really didn't want to. "As much as I want this to continue, I can't let it.""Why not?" Morgana asked as she looked at him and his large green eyes."First off, you deserve a lot more than something quick in the back of a car." Greg laughed. "Let alone my dad's car at that. Your uncle might be okay and all, but I doubt he would let me stay with you tonight, and my house is full to the brim with people.""I see your point." Morgana laughed. "So what happens now?""Well, the best thing I can think of is in the morning I will get my car, and then I will see you at your graduation. I know you probably have plans afterward." Greg said as he ran his fingers down her cheek as he looked into her eyes."Actually, I don't. I think m
"give me a few hours to think everything through. This is not something that we can rush." Greg said as he looked at her. Everything needed to fall into its place. "The biggest thing is you have to act like you haven't seen me, and we don't have anything up our sleeves.""I think I can do that," Morgana said as she looked at him. "Greg, I will do anything to keep them away from the neglect they will suffer at the hands of our parents.""I know." He said as he hugged her close. "Are your parents coming here tomorrow?""I don't think so." She said as she looked at him. "They have never thought to do anything for them or me unless they wanted something.""That works in our favor," Greg said. "I am going to go home and think about this some more on what we can realistically do.""Whatever, Greg." She said as she nodded, "I will do whatever remember that.""I completely understand that." He said as he kissed her forehead. "Go get so
The morning came too soon. Greg got up and walked downstairs. He saw there were things all ready for him to go through. "Why are these boxes here?""Because I think it is time for you to move out," Mark said with a smile."Well, that is the plan," Greg said."No, I mean today," Mark said with a huge grin. "I made a few phone calls this morning. I have so many more contacts than even your mother but don't ever tell her that.""Dad, what did you do?" Greg asked. He walked into the Kitchen and knew he needed coffee for this. He really had no idea what his father had done."Well, I thought about what I said last night. This was actually your mother's idea." Mark said."Mom wants me to move out?" Greg asked as he took a sip of his coffee."Well," Mark said."No, I don't." Krissy said as she entered the room. "However, I know what you have to have to get the kids.""The kids?" Greg asked."That is the poin
