Enjoy!

Tai is at the park with the kids while he waits for Angel to come back from the store with some snacks. Surprisingly June shows up and is surprise by Tai parenting. Unfortunately Angel shows up and gets angry and threatens June.

"Am I gonna have to beat someone up? What the fuck is this, Tai"

"Oh Angel this here is June Davis's older sister"

Tai said as he pushed thc stroller back and forth with his son inside.

"I know who she is but my question is what is she doing here talking to you?"

"It's a public place"

June said in defense.

"I wasn't talking to you"

Angel said sending her a harsh glare.

"Rude much"

June said glaring back at Angel.

"I can get pissed off, wanna see?"

"Okay that's quite enough now Angel"

"Well see ya Tai"

June said happily walking away.

"Bye June"

Tai said with a wave.

"Bye June"

Angel said in a mocking tone to Tai who raised one eyebrow at her.

"Something on your mind babe?"

He asked with a smirk.

"Nothing"

She said reaching into her butt pocket to take out a box of Marlboro and took out one cigarette stick placing it in her mouth as she placed the box back and got her lighter to light up the cigarette stick before sucking in a deep breath and let out a puff of smoke. Not too far Akiza was looking at her Mother in slight concern.

"Hey Akiza, come on let's play"

Clover said.

"What are you looking at?"

Talia asked walking over to Akiza and see her watching her parents.

"It's Mom"

She answered quietly.

"What about Mom?"

Clover asked hanging herself upside on the monkey bars.

"She's smoking"

"So? We seen her smoke before. Now come on, let's play"

"You girls go on ahead. I want to have a talk with mom"

She said going down the slide before running up to her Mom and Dad.

"Mommy can we have a sit down?"

"Of course princess"

She said as she sat down on the bench and pulled Akiza on her lap.

"What's on your mind?"

She asked.

"Why do you smoke?"

She asked. Angel froze as she was cut off by the question. Tai looked to his wife and child in surprise at the sudden question and was curious to what Angel would say.

"Well....a instinct really...it just helps me to relax"

"But smoking is bad"

She as she got off her mother's lap and went to dig in her backpack and pulled out a children's book to reveal a drawing of someone smoking and in the next page they are laying on a hospital bed.

"You can die"

She said sadly. Angel smiled as she scoff and grabbed the book.

"You know what reading will rot your brain"

She said standing up and threw the book into the trash can.

"I don't want to lose you Mom"

"And you won't. I promise"

"So does that mean you will stop smoking?"

She asked hopefully. Angel deadpan as she looked to her daughter.

"Are you serious?"

"Yes"

"Akiza listen to me baby because right now you are kind of getting into mommy's nerves. When you're older you will understand until then I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do"

"But smoking is bad for your health"

She insisted. Angel stood up as she rolled up her fist to her sides.

"I put up with your shit already by not buying meat what else do you want from me?"

"You curse"

"Akiza, we are at the park. Don't you want to go play?"

She said trying to change the subject.

"Not until you put that cancer stick down"

Angel felt her eye twitch before looking at Tai.

"Deal with her Tai"

She said warningly. Tai let out a sigh as he got down to Akiza's level.

"Akiza sweetheart, smoking isn't all bad if you limit yourself from it"

"Daddy no matter how you put it, it will still cause damage to your body"

"You really be doing some reading haven't you?"

"Of course and just so we can put all this mess away..."

She said trailing off to give Angel a surprise hug. Angel slightly smiled in surprise and hug her in return. Akiza soon pulled away and ran to the trashcan.

"No more cigarettes"

She said proudly as she threw the box of cigarettes she snatch from Angel's butt pocket into the trash causing Angel to growl.

"That's it. We're going home!"

She yelled.

*Night Time*

"Can you believe her? Having the nerves to tell me to stop smoking. Who does she think she is?"

Angel complain to Tai as they sat together in the balcony as their kids were in their room asleep.

"She's yours"

Tai said leaning his head back on his chair.

"Yeah...well...whatever"

She said in defeat.

"Besides I thought you did quite smoking?"

Tai asked.

"I did but you know, in and out of jail brought me back to my old habit. But enough about me, you smoke too, why did Akiza had to bite my head off"

"Because you were smoking in front of them"

"So what? Sue me"

"I can't, everything you have I gave you"

He said looking at her with a smile.

"Besides, it will be a good idea to stop quite smoking"

"Oh come on Tai, not you too"

"Akiza did make a good point. Our kids are still young and they need us around more longer. Right now, cold turkey"

"You've got to be kidding me"

"Promise me for the sake of our kids and our marriage, we will stop smoking"

"Taaaiii"

Angel said with a whine.

"Angeeelll"

Tai said with the same whine as he smirk to his wife.

"You did it before, you can do it again"

"I know but..."

"No butts. We quite together"

"Alright, fine. You win"

"Good. Now then let's get inside and cuddle up to get warm"

Tai said as he stood up and pulled Angel up with him as they went inside their apartment to get ready for sleep.
