81 - Care To Comment
The death of Maziar reverberated through the region and the other actors who were also working on the bomb intel were backing away. There was really no other option.Javi said before they left Maziar’s house, they threw cooking oil and liquor on his white boards and lit them on fire, after taking pictures of it all. I didn’t care to look at any of it, I wanted to forget it desperately. Noora had to die for their stupid bomb. They gave the information to Scott, and whatever he was going to do with it, I wasn’t sure I cared. Various news outlets were already reporting wild stories, some true and some nowhere near true. The agency would not be releasing that I killed Maziar and Hashem, and I

82 - I Know These Guys
The day after the presser we were all just exhausted. I was beat from the incessant questioning from dad and Erik. Chris and Mary were leaving in the morning and going to spend the rest of the visit on their own. I finally got dad and Erik to leave us alone and I was so ready for some quality time with my husband. Dad hadn’t even been gone for five minutes when the doorbell rang, and I thought maybe he’d forgotten something. Javi answered the door and there stood two men … one was older and the other looked like the Hulk. Javi must have been expecting them because his eyes lit up and he welcomed them in. They came in and the older man sat at the kitchen table with a briefcase, handcuffed to his wrist. What the heck?

83 - The Village
We first had to decide what city we wanted to be close to, and we all decided on being between Philly and NYC for our first spot. That would also put us a bit closer to Corey’s cabin. We decided to let Corey in on it, and he and Javi both were putting up $10 million each. As we started to get plans together, we were hopeful this initial investment would be enough to fund maybe three or four villages until we could start getting other donations. I had never been so excited and consumed by something, it gave me such hope and it was the breath of fresh air we all needed. Corey’s dearest Perry, of course acted as our counsel and was helping with the paperwork to begin a non-profit. Javi had a lead on a 70 acre lot in Doylestown, just north of Philly and only about three hours from Corey’s cabin.

84 - I'm The Lucky One
Javi and I got so busy over the next few months, as you can imagine … I forgot to renew my birth control shot until it was well over a month past its time. We still humped like rabbits every single chance we got and something just told me I was knocked up. I was desperately putting off taking a test because a test meant it was real. A test meant people getting excited and wanting to talk about it all the time. A test meant Javi probably sticking me in the RV and not letting me out. Part of me was pissed I let this happen, and part of me was excited. As I thought about letting myself get excited, all I could think about was mom. Having a baby without my mom. Man, that is going to be rough. Dad was now dating a nice lady and seemed pretty happy. He’s only met Javi now a few times, but he

85 - The New Best Night Of My Life
Rae had on a sexy little dress that hugged her body perfectly. I was hard just looking at her, but I usually was anyhow. She got us a quiet booth in the back and had actually reserved the table in front of us too for a little privacy. I didn't like her being in public with so little covering her. Her body was only for my eyes, but she was so happy and with today's news I wasn't about to pick a fight or make her feel self conscious.I slid in next to her, instead of in front of her. This way, both of our backs were to the room and it was less likely anyone would see us. Unfortunately, that meant I couldn’t see anyone coming but I was willing to risk it. We ordered drinks and an appetizer even though I already wet my appetite a few minutes ago, I thought … licking my lips and still tasting her

86 - She Sacrificed Her Dignity
~One Year Later, Rae’s Point of View~ I was utterly and completely exhausted. I had been up two days helping finalize the new build for our D.C. village location. We really wanted to hit up L.A. next since the homelessness situation out there is beyond dire, but with a small baby we just couldn’t be back and forth like that right now. We let Marcus take the reins on L.A., and he was out scouting locations and getting conversations started to make it our third location. The guys were really flourishing and it just seemed like this what we were all meant to be doing.Even more time flew by and we were now about 95% finished with things for the D.C. location ... I was so ready for it to be done. We planned to take a long and much needed month long vacation once it was ready.
