≈Miami, FL...

(6:28 p.m) 

Sancy had left one hour ago and now Cora decided that it was the perfect time to take a nap. She just had finished some work for the club and it got her tired. While she was laying down on the couch in the living room, she couldn't help but think about the conversation she had with her big sister earlier. Was it really a good idea to speak with Cameron ? Maybe she shouldn't. She shook her head trying to get all the thoughts go away from her mind so she could relax.

She closed her eyes for five minutes and the doorbell rang. She sighed and got up to answer the front door. And there were standing the twins and Kalvin, that had a bag in his hand. It was food from Burger King and Cora's stomach immediately started making noise indicating that it wanted to eat right now.

"Hey ! How are you ? Did you have fun ? " She greeted them moving to the side so they could enter in. The four walked in the living room and settled down.

"Yes, we talked a bit and then we played 2K15. We beat Terry all the times." Almar answered smiling. 

"Yeah, it was fun ! Next time you should come mummy." Acacia suggested taking the remote on the coffee table. 

Cora nodded her head, "That's great. Uh...babies, can you go upstairs please ? Kalvin and I have to talk." The twins did as she said and in less than one minute the two adults were alone with the television as the only sound. 

The two sighed avoiding eye contact, "Uh...I'm sorry." She finally apologized shyly. She was nervous, because she didn't know how he was going to react. She saw the hurt in his eyes that night and it was a pain to her heart to know that she caused it. It was the last thing she wanted to do, "I should've not said all these horrible things. I should've not threatened you to take your child away. I'm sorry for treating you like...if you were him. I...I didn't realize how much I hurt you and I'm truly sorry." She added to her apology.

He beamed, "Thanks, I appreciate it. Listen, I know you didn't do that on purpose. I know it wasn't really against me. I...I forgive you. And I want to apologize also, for scaring you. I should've kept calm and tried to ease the tension, but I just throw more fire into this and fortunately none of us said something more outrageous than what we said."

Cora grinned, "Okay. Let's turn the page then. Uh...what did you and the kids talk about ? " She asked curiously. 

"Oh, about me leaving and they got mad because of what Cameron did." 

"Oh...What did they say exactly ? " 

"Don't worry, it's normal. I mean, he wasn't there, he had never been and when he appeared for the first time, he kidnaps one of them, so of course they will be angry and...want to take revenge, but...I told them to focus on being great in their lives and to accomplish their dreams because that's the best revenge they'll have and Cameron will realized one day what he missed out and he will regret it, but the twins will be out there shining not even thinking about him because...he doesn't deserve it. Don't worry, they'll be fine." 

She attempted to stop them, but she couldn't and tears began to fall. She laughed wiping them, "Excuse me, I'm crying for everything now. These damn hormones." She explained causing Kalvin to chuckle.

"Yeah, I noticed. Oh shit ! Your food. I hope it's still warm." He handed her the bag. 

She smiled and pulled out a fry that she put instantly in her mouth, "It's okay. Thanks so much." 

"You're welcome, but at the end of the first semester or even before we gotta stop with all that unhealthy food." 

"Try me, boy. I dare you to put me on a stupid diet."

"It's for the baby."

"The baby loves his hamburgers and fries, trust me." She said with confidence.

"We'll see."

{ The Next Day | (11:09 a.m) } 

Today was a beautiful day in Miami and Cora and her adorable children decided to eat the breakfast outside to enjoy the warm weather. They could finally live their lives without some drama interrupting the moment and they were appreciating it. It was like everything came to normal. 

"Mummy ? " 

Cora looked up from her plate and turned her head towards her daughter, "Yes ? " 

"Do we really have to go back to school next week ? I'm not ready for it." 

"Yeah, can we stay home one more week ? Please." Almar joined the conversation pleading along with his sister. 

Their mother shook her head slowly, "You need to go back." 

"But, I don't want to be in that building ever again in my life. I got kidnapped there ! " Acacia said getting frustrated. She couldn't see herself walking in the school knowing that she could get taken away one more time and this time who could tell if she was going to be as lucky as the first time, "I'm scared mummy." 

Cora sighed sadly. She wished she could simply delete that terrible episode out of her family's life, but unfortunately she couldn't. She hadn't the power to do this, "Okay. But do you think staying one more week at home will solve the problem ? Maybe...I need to change you of school. What do you think about this ? "

Acacia immediately nodded her head, "Yes. I really don't want to go back there."

"And what about you, Almar ? "

He shrugged, "To be honest, I just wanted more vacation, but I don't care if you change us of school." He answered with a nonchalant tone of voice. He hadn't even touched his food. Something was wrong with him. 

"Almar, baby, are you okay ? " She asked concerned. 

He shook his head with angry eyes, "Why ? " 

She was lost, "Why what ? Tell me, what's wrong ? "

"Why did you do this to us ? Why is he our father, huh ? WHY ?! " He questioned ending by yelling and getting the others customers' attention by the same occasion, "It's all your fault ! " He accused Cora pointing his finger at her and then he stood up abruptly and suddenly he started running away. 

Cora hadn't really time to realize what was going on, but she was already following him thanks to her mother's instinct, "Almar ! Almar ! " She called him in the streets as people were watching her like she was crazy. 

"Almar stop ! " The little boy wasn't listening and kept running. He didn't want to be in her presence. He was angry and for some reason this anger didn't want to get out of his broken heart. He was extremily hurt, but kept everything for himself. He didn't really know who to talk to. There was his sister, but he wasn't sure if she will totally understand him. Who will ? Plus, he couldn't really understand himself in the first place. But this hole in his heart was causing pain he couldn't get ride off and it was eating him inside. He was pissed and needed to escape. It was too much for him. 

"Almar ! " Cora kept screaming. She was tired to run, but she had to stop him. Now he was going on the road were there were the cars and he wasn't being careful since he was just running but not really looking the direction he was going to. 

Actually, the young boy was in deep thoughts and his vision began to get blurry since he started crying due to the pain he was feeling right now, so he hadn't seen the red Mercedes that was coming on his left. But Cora did and was already thinking about the worst.

"ALMAR ! "
