Ciara was stretched out on the couch watching the late news.
It was about another police officer shooting.
She thought about Dj and Dez a lot when it came to these shootings.
She heard keys rattling then the door open revealing Dez coming in from work.
She had some good news to tell him.
" baby why you still up " Dez said putting his keys on the counter going over to Ciara lifting her legs up on his lap so he can massage her swollen feet.
" I couldn't sleep but how was work though"
" it was straight got the chance to train a new member "
" oh that's good , I cooked some chicken if you're hungry "
" it's in the microwave "
" oh ok but what you do all day beside sleep and eat "
Ciara gave him a smug look. Dez threw his hands up surrendering.
" baby you know I was just playing " he said getting up to warm his food.
He came back to the living room where Ciara was rubbing her stomach.
" everything alright " he said concern
" yea she is just kicking "
Dez rubbed his big hands around Ciara stomach.
" baby girl I can't wait for you to come out of there " he said kissing her belly.
Ciara smiled, she loved when Dez talk like this.
She knew he was going to take good care of their "daughter"once they found out the sex.
" I have some things to tell you "
" wassup?"
" well first I got a job "
Dez was happy for Ciara. She knew she love teaching.
" that's good baby "
" I know they want to meet with me tomorrow "
" oh wow I'm happy for you but I don't see how you do it, teaching them bad ass kids "
" oh hush Dez , it's not even like that "
" but anyways what's the second thing " he asked
Ciara was nervous of how he was going to react.
" my father he wants to have talk with me and you "
Dez didn't know what to think. It's been a really long time since they last seen each other.
He remember the conversation they had in the past.
Flashback
you and my daughter got something going on" Elijah said
Dez didn't know what to say. He figure he might as well tell the truth.
" uh yea " Dez said
Elijah wonder why his daughter didn't tell him.
" for how long ? "
" just two weeks sir but I promise I'm not doing no funny business with her " Dez said
" hmmm bet not be either , my daughter has been hurt before and I don't want to see her get hurt again but I'm trusting you with my daughter "
