My crazy family

Chapter 38

"Man they got red" Cj said.

"Fuck man. Think he gonna eat us out?" Odell asked.

" naw man I don't think so. Red loyal to the gang" cj said.

"I done told my baby mama.... you know just in case" cj said.

Odell didn't know how he was gonna tell Demi about this but he knew he had to.

" Ight bruh imma talk to you later" Odell said.

Odell walked back in the house joining everybody in the living room. They had let Anthony go home three days after he woke up.

" I'm sorry about that" Odell said sitting down next to Demi.

" it's fine, I was just asking about the kids school and how they feel about it" Angie said.

Odell went and got a family therapist because he felt like they all needed one.

" do you like your job Demetria?" Angie asked.

" yes. I love it but I don't know if I'll be able to perform anytime soon" Demi said.

"And why is that?"

" I'm scared to be away from my kids and husband" demi said watching Angie write a few things down.

" and what about you Odell. Do you like your job?" She asked.

" yeah" Odell said.

Once Angie realized Odell wasn't saying anything else she moved on.

" ok let's talk about the night of the incident"

" I was scared. My daddy wasn't there and mommy got hurt and so did my brothers" Adriana said.

"What about you Anthony?"

" I wanted to help my mommy but that man wouldn't let me. And when he shot me it hurt, I thought I wasn't gonna see my family again"

Demi wiped the tears from her eyes as she listened to her kids speak. Angie pointed at Aliyah indicating for her to go.

" I don't know...... I'm just really grateful for my mom, how she protected me from that man. I just know I wouldn't be the same if it would've happened.... but i just wish my dad would've been there"

"Would y'all stop saying that!" Aiden snapped.

" you're free to speak Aiden" Angie said.

" it's my fault they came in, I should've checked the camera like my dad taught me to do but I didn't because he was my friend. Yeah they beat the shit out of me and my mom and little brother got hurt but you all keep saying  I wish dad was there.... if he would've been there that night he would've got killed trying to protect us all and we would've been without a dad. My biological dad walked out my life and you think I'll want to lose another one! It would've killed me not seeing or hearing from my dad everyday so I'm glad he wasn't there" Aiden said, his voice cracking a bit.

Demi never thought of it like that. What if her husband was there, he would've definitely died that night.

" can I say something?" Odell asked.

" of course, go ahead" Angie said.

" I wish I would've been there because none of you would've got hurt. I love you all to death and I'll do anything for y'all. If I was there and would've died i would've been ok dying knowing that I protected my family. But ain't nothing like that gonna happen again..... and I'm putting that on my life" Odell said.

.........
Demi haven't said anything about that night in their  therapy session, she didn't want to talk about it. She just wanted to move on and create happy memories with her family.

" Hey daddy is ordering food so if you guys want something go tell him" Demi said to her kids who were all in the movie room.

The kids all got up following Demi towards the room.

" he's not where I'm going. He's in his office" Demi laughed.

She walked into the master bedroom before she got her things ready for a shower. Walking in the bathroom she opened the towel closet checking to inside. She left the bathroom door open before she got in the shower. Demi was really paranoid, scared someone might get her. Turning on the water she started washing herself but would check behind the curtains every few minutes. Moving to wash her hair she tried keeping soap out her face so she could keep her eyes open but she ended up getting soap in her eyes anyways.

"Babe!" She shouted.

"Odell!"

Demi was panicking as she tried to get the soap out her eyes, scared someone was behind her. She ended up falling out the tub. Rubbing forcefully at her eyes she felt around for something to dry her face with. Picking up her shirt she dried her face.

" you cal- why you on the floor?" Odell asked.

" I um.... I slipped stepping out the shower" Demi lied.

Odell went over helping Demi up off the floor.

" come downstairs when you done" Odell said about to walk out the bathroom.

"No..... stay in here with me please.... I want you to lotion me up" she said coming up with an excuse.

"Ok.. coconut oil or the strawberry Shea butter?" He asked.

" umm. You pick"

Demi didn't even finish washing her hair but she'll finish washing in kitchen sink. Drying off  she put her panties and bra on before she let Odell lotion her body.

" I gotta talk to you..... umm one of my friends went to jail for murder" he started off.

" I'm sorry to hear that baby" Demi said.

" I was with him.... me and 7 other guys but he got caught. I'm telling you this because if I go to jail I want you to know that you and the kids are good" he said.

"What!? Odell. What the hell, you killed someone?" She asked.

" yeah, three people.... I couldn't let them free like that Demi" Odell said.

"Three? Odell that's life! Or death sentence. You expect me to raise 5 kids by myself...... we can leave" Demi said.

She was willing to leave to a different country to protect her husband. Odell chuckled when Demi said they can leave.

" I'm gonna wait to hear from cj" Odell said.

" I can't lose you again" Demi said looking up at Odell.

" love you" he said pecking her lips.
