Chapter 1-Light after Dom
The sun shone through the window as Letty pushed the teddy bear that had somehow ended up over her face as she slept next to DJ. It was about two years now since Dom had left her alone. Letty literally dragged herself off the bed and into the bathroom. She had just worked the night shift since she needed the extra money. She walked back to the bedroom of her two room apartment and noticed that DJ was still sleeping soundly. Just then she heard a loud crash out in the hall. Letty heart raced in fear as she crept towards the peep hole. It was a Spanish looking man fumbling to pick up what looked like art supplies. She opened the door and offered assistance. The man was frozen at the sight of this beautiful woman wearing nothing more than a male vest. It was so worn and thin that her black bra and panties was visible through the fabric. Her curly hair had grown long enough to cover her breasts and was unruly as usual.
"Seen enough?" Letty asked disgusted at the way the man was staring.
"I,..I'm sorry, i...i didn't ...
"Save it porky, just thought you needed some help. If you would excuse me..."
I'm David" the man finally managed to utter.
"Leticia" she replied raising one eyebrow.
That is a lovely name" the man said. At this time David's accent was starting to annoy Letty as he reminded her of some pathetic inter-racial romance movie.
A loud cry suddenly came from her bedroom. "Saved by the bell" unaware that she had said that out loud she exited herself from the awkward moment bolting the door behind her.
Don't cry baby, mama is here, thought I was gone huh?, Never my love, never.."
Letty hated breasts feeding because it hurt so bad that she even cried a few times but any sacrifice is worth it for her son.
Taking care of her son in the day, while working at night was exhausting. However she didn't have a choice as the risk of being seen in the day was much higher. Fenix and Braga's men were still out there and they must have known she escaped the crash by now.
Letty was once again awoken by a noise in the hall. This time it was a knock at her door. As Letty lazily looked at the radio clock on the dresser she was thrown off the side of the bed in haste. Oh my god, oh my god... I'm dead I'm so f*'king dead...
She ran to the door half dressed.
"Buenos trades Mrs. Lopez" she said, out of breath.
"My dear calm down your about to have an aneurism."
Dam I,t I over slept and I'm late for work, Mr. Del Rio is going to fire my ass if I reach late one more time." Letty babbled while she ducked in and out of rooms, gathering her stuff before she left.
"Milk's in the fridge, I left you some dinner if you like, he has to take his anti-bio..."
"Los mio! You think it's the first time I have taken care of DJ. Don't worry, we'll be fine."
Letty kissed the old woman and ran out the room but soon return to kiss her son before leaving for work. Mrs. Lopez was a tenant in the building when Letty arrived four months ago with her baby. She was a housewife and help Letty a lot being in a new place. She even volunteered to baby sit for free, but Letty wouldn't have it and pays the old lady whenever she can.
