Settled Hearts by Duckie4rmabove
Chapter 1
"Mommy!" Mai turned around to see her son standing there with something in his hand.
"Honey, what is it?" Mai bend down to see what was wrong. He handed her the paper and he looked down.
The paper read...
You're invited to a father-son picnic and we hope you can come and have fun.
Our activities will include a brief meeting with the fathers so we can all get to know each other and other activities like water fights etc....
"I really want to go Mommy" The boy was very much like his father, and had the spirit of fighting, but had the beauty and grace like his mother.
"Sweetie...I don't know what to say" Mai confused. Andy has been gone for quite a while, he said he was going to be back in a few months but it's been a few years. He called a few times to let her know that was going to stay in America a little longer because he didn't finished his business yet. Every time he said he was coming home there would always be a call and with every call the months would slowly go by. Mai didn't know what Andy was doing. He said he'll tell her when he gets back. At this rate he'll never be back Mai thought to her.
"Is daddy ever going to be back?" He said curiously, growing up without a father figure was hard on him, but harder on Mai.
"Sure he is Johnny, he's just finishing up some business with Uncle Terry" Mai ruffled up his hair. "Meanwhile, I'll ask your teacher if I can go in place"
"Thanks mom! You're the best!" He gave his mom and great big hug. Jonathan ran off to his room to play.
Mai smiled as he saw that she could make her son happy, she tried her best to be a dad and a mom to him. When she became a mother and when Andy became a father, she thought that Andy would always be there for her and her son. But its been gone for more than 3 years.
Next morning.....
"Jonathan! I'm going to take you to school today!" Mai screamed up the stairs hoping her sweet son would hear her.
"Ok Mom!" He skipped down the stairs with his backpack on.
"Are you ready?" Mai asked as she gave him a glass of orange juice.
"I'm ready!" Johnny gulped down the orange juice and wiped his mouth on the napkin.
"Ok then lets go" Mai opened the door and motion for her son to go.
At the school, Jonathan excitedly leaded Mai to his classroom. When they got to his classroom all the kids where there playing with stuff animals and some were reading Clifford books. Jonathan went in and was greeted by his friends.
"Hello Are you the teacher of this class?" Mai walked up to the man at the desk and held her hand out.
He looked up and was amazed with what he saw. Even now Mai was a married woman her appearance and clothes never changed. She was still as flaunting and flashes as always. She still catches men's eyes with just one glimpse of her.
"While yes I am" the teacher shuttered and took Mai's hand.
"Hello Mister...." Mai realized she didn't know his name.
"Mr. Drew Robin" He finished her sentence for her.
"Mai Bogard, I'm Jonathan's mother, I'm here about the father and son outing, and I was just wondering if I can go" Mai smiled as she hope that he would accept her exceptions.
"Oh I see...no father?" Drew raised his hopes.
"It's not like that...ummmm...it's hard to explain" Mai stumbled over the right words to say.
"Say no more... I know what you're going through... I myself am single" Dave smiled.
"Oh no...I don't mean that...don't take me for a..." Mai try to explain that she wasn't single it's just that Andy wasn't here.
"Don't worry about it Miss. Mai Bogard, Well I have to get back to teaching these little angels and I will be forward to seeing you at the outing" Drew took her hand and kissed it and went back into the room.
Mai stood there overwhelm and guilty, she knew she should have told her that she was married. But it's been so long since a man has been so forward with her. She loved Andy with all her heart, but he wasn't here to take her heart. "No Mai you love Andy and that's that!" Mai walked back to her car. Before she went home she went to the mall to do a little shopping and went to do some groceries.
As she got home she saw another car parked in her driveway. She didn't pay much attention to it. She got out of the car and heard some whistlers from other men around the neighborhood as usual. She ignored then and went into the house.
"Joe!" She was surprised to see him there sitting on her doorstep.
"Mai!" He stood up and they both greeted each other with a hug.
"What are you doing here?" Mai asked Joe.
"Just seeing what your up too" Joe smiled and waited for Mai to open the door.
"I'm great, how are you?" Mai did open the door and welcome Joe in.
"I'm good too" Joe was very impressed with what he saw. "Nice place you got"
"Thanks" Mai putting all her stuff down on the nearest couch and went into the kitchen.
"Look what I'm really here is to give you a message from Andy" Joe made himself at home on the couch.
"How come he didn't just call?" Mai came out with some tea.
"Because this message requires a massager" Joe took a slip of his tea.
"Ok...Are you going to tell me or wait until I grow wrinkles first?" Mai snickered.
Joe laughed a bit. "Andy wants Jonathan to come to America and stay with him... Andy was hopping he can train him a little bit... he got it all figure out... there's a school that's perfect for him too!" Joe thought that this would be happy news.
"So Andy is planning on staying in America?" Mai looked down at her tea.
Joe completely forgot about Mai and her feelings. "Ummmm...Mai I really don't know... Andy thought it would be nice to see his son again" Joe thought he had saved the conversation
"What about his wife? Does he not want to see his wife again?" Mai said sadly and slowly.
Once again Joe didn't know what to say. "Mai..."
"Jonathan will be back anything soon...you can ask him when he gets back... but if he leaves he'll probably leave next week" Mai wouldn't let Joe finished his sentence. "I'll get some more tea" Mai stood up and took the tray with the tea and went back into the kitchen.
Joe heard keys rattling at the door, he wondered if that was Johnny coming home how. Indeed he was right, but Johnny didn't come home alone.
"Mommy! I'm home! Mr. Robin wanted to talk to you too so he's here too!" Johnny yelled but was surprised when he saw Joe sitting on the couch.
"I'll be out in just a minute honey!" Mai yelled from the kitchen.
"Uncle Joe!" Johnny leaped onto Joe.
"Hey kiddo!" Joe was happy to see him
"Someone wanted to see me?" Mai walked out and saw that her son and Joe were playing around and catching up on old times.
"Hi, it's me again" Drew scratch the back of his head.
"Hello" Mai smiled.
"I just wanted to give you these" Drew handed sheets of paper to Mai. "There the information about the outing, I talked to the other teachers and parents and they have no objection to the idea you have propose"
"That's great!" Mai jumped with joy.
"Well I should probably go now, I see you have company, so I'll see you this weekend?" Drew showed himself out
"Right, this weekend, Have a nice day Drew" Mai smiled
"You too Mai" Drew closed the door behind him.
"So Johnny boy, you're daddy asked me to come here and pick you up and go to America!" Mai heard Joe say to Jonathan.
"Really! What about mommy?" Jonathan was the kind of kid who hates to leave their mothers or fathers.
Joe was dumbfounded again. Mai broke in "Mommy has too much stuff to do here, honey. I have to stay here" Mai walked up to Johnny and kissed him on the nose.
"I don't want to leave Mommy" Johnny said to Joe. He was still sitting on his lap.
"I can ask you're daddy and then mommy can join us in a few days" Joe made a promise he knew he couldn't keep.
"Really? Mommy can I go?" he turned to Mai
"Of course you can sweetheart" Feeling a sense of depression but she'll do whatever that makes her son happy.
"Yay!" Johnny yelled.
