Meanwhile in the kitchen

Letty and Maya made homemade homemade pizza in the kitchen. They had four pizzas laid out on a baking pan on the counter. Two big ones for the adults and two smaller ones for the kids.

"Okay baby. Just sprinkle the pepperoni like we did with the cheese." She shows the motion to her and she copies her mother with her hand over the crust covered in tomato sause. "Good job baby."

"This is fun mommy."

"Yeah it is."

"Mommy, can I put extra pepperoni on my pizza?"

"Yeah baby." What do you think think Ava and Mateo want on their pizza?

"Lot's of cheese" She says with a playful smile.

"Okay then." Letty looks at her daughter and can't help but smile at her little girl. Every day her baby girl made her smile. She has her tan caramel skin and curling brown hair that went down to her shoulders. She felt so proud of her being such a great kid. She's polite and a good student at her preschool. She did her chores like making her bed and says please and thank you all the time.

"Why are you smiling so big mommy?"

"I just love you so much."

"I love you too mommy." She hugs her waist and Letty bends herself down a little to lay her head on hers. "Are you and daddy getting a divorce?"

"No. Baby what did you ask that?" She says going down to her knees to look at her.

"Cause you and daddy were yelling at each other."

"Me and your daddy had a little fight and we both got mad."

"You say being is bad."

"I know. We both just didn't say nice things to each other."

"Are you sorry?"

"Yes."

"Then tell daddy that you're sorry for saying the mean things to him."

"Do you think he'll forgive me?"

"He loves you. You can't be mad at people you love."

"How are you so smart and sweet?" She says tickling her and Maya laughs

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

After Dinner

Letty is getting the kids to bed while Dom takes on doing the dishes and cleaning up. It's usual the other way around but tonight was different. She tucked in the twins and they were fast asleep. Sh turns on their nigth lights and tip toes out of the room. She goes over to Maya's room and checks on her. She's fast asleep and cuddling with her pink puppy doll. She then goes over to Aiden's room and he's sitting in his bed with his lamp on. He had his book open on his lap.

"Don't you have school tomorrow little man?" She says as she crosses her arms.

"I can't sleep." He says closing his book.

"You want me to read you another story?" She says walking over to the bed. She sits down on his bed next to him and puts the book on his little shelf.

"Tell me the story of you and daddy racing cars."

"Your momma tells the stories best." She looks up and sees Dom standing by the door.

"I think I need daddy's help to tell them."

"Are you sure?" He asks her.

"Yeah." Dom smiles see her establish some sort of truce. He walks over and sits next to Aiden on the other side of the bed.

"Okay. How about we do the story of me and mommy in Spain?"

"I haven't heard that story." Aiden says with excitement. Letty smiled at him. He loves telling the story to Maya but hadn't told Aiden. They imagined telling their kids their adventures when they would be growing up.

"So a long time ago, mommy and I were both lost and had to find each other. Then Uncle Hobbs found her across the world."

"What were you doing mommy?"

"I was working with some not so nice people. Daddy went all around the world to find me and I was in London. I didn't remember who daddy was but he tried to help me. But I kept running around to different places until we end up in Spain."

"What happened next?"

"Well I went with your uncle Brian and the team to find her. Then something crazy happened. She was on top of a tank and it was was about to turn over and I knew she was gonna fall. So I drove my car and jumped across a bridge to catch her."

"YOU DID?" Aiden says surprised.

"Yeah he did. He flew across the bridge and we landed on a car."

"Can we do that?"

"Absolutely not mister." Letty tells him.

"But daddy does it."

"That's because daddy didn't have mommy with him to stop him from doing crazy adventures."

"That's right. I can never make it without her."

"Can we do adventures together?" He says in between yawning.

"We can but it's time for you to go to bed little man." Dom says as he turns the lamp off. They both kiss his forehead and ease off the bed.

"Good night mama. Good night daddy." Aiden says as he cuddles into bed.

"Sweet dreams baby."

"Night little guy."

They step out of the bed and tip toe out of the room. Letty closes the door slowly as she steps out of the room. She turns around to look at Dom standing outside their bedroom door. They gave each other sad smiles at each other.

"I'm sorry for everything I said. I didn't think about how you would feel."

"I was the one who got dramatic about the whole thing. I shouldn't have lied or gotten mad at you."

"You are more than a wife and and mom. You've done so much and I haven't apperciated you for a while. We forgot how to be us instead of being these other people. Parents, racers, buisness partners. You are my partner in this life and I can't live without you."

"You are my best friend and I don't want this little thing to screw us up."

"I don't want to screw us up."

"I know you don't. You need to quit blaming yourself for the past. We're here now and that's not going to be taken away." She walks over to Dom and they hug each other. He holds her so tightly in her arms and kissed her forehead. She closes her eyes and let's out a sigh of relief. She looks up at him and kisses his lips. He opens the door behind them and they walk hand and hand to go to bed.
