Dom sat in his office while looking at the files on his computer looking at the security footage from CTV cameras that Hobbs sent over to him. He laid back in his desk chair and thought on whether to go or not. He needs to protect his family by going after Cipher but he leaves his wife and his children vulnerable to whoever could come after them.
"Dad you okay?" He looks at the door and sees Camilla standing at the door.
"Yeah my head is just everywhere right now."
"Are you gonna go after Cipher?" She says walking inside the room.
"You don't need to think about that."
"Dad I know I'm a kid but I've been through half a lifetime in a few months. You need to go and find Cipher. She has to pay for what she's done to us."
"Hey, come here." He stands up and sits his daughter down on the couch. "I know you're angry and your hurt over what happened. But you can't let that hate consume you. It can take you to a really dark place."
"Has it ever made you turn dark?"
"Yeah it did twice. The first time when your grandpa died and second was when I thought I lost your mom."
"How did you get out?"
"Crazy enough, your mom brought me back. I thought she died but her coming back brought me back to life."
"Dad you need to go. I miss home, I don't want to be scared all the time. You always tell me to be brave, why can't you?"
"You talk just like your mother and you're right. If I do go, you're gonna have to watch over your mom. This is dangerous and I'm risking not coming back."
"But you are coming back because you have more to fight for."
Dom smiled sweetly at his daughter. Her bravery, her words, her grit. She's just like him and Letty. A carbon copy of the two of them put together. He doesn't want to leave his daughter but he knows he has to protect her. He pulls her over and hugs her tight. He tries to keep himself from crying because he doesn't want to lose time with his daughter.
"I love you kid."
"I love you too dad."
Dom walks into the bedroom to find Letty sitting on the side of the bed, gripping the side of the bed. Dom closes the door and walks over to her and sits next to her.
"Are you okay?"
"You know when we got Cami back I thought about our kids having the childhood I didn't get to. Have a mother who loves them and a father who's there for them. Now I have to think about life without you."
"That's not gonna happen."
"Dom she wants you dead. She's been running everything for years and we didn't even know it."
"Baby look at me." He moves in front of her and gets on one knee. "I'm going to end this for good and we can go back home and have the life we dreamed of."
"Please come back to me." She says as she held his face.
"I always do."
"I'm serious. It's not just the two of us anymore. Our kids need you. I can't lose you again."
"You won't."
"Promise me."
"I promise." He kisses her and she pulls him closer. She wraps her arms around him and he pulls her close to get in between her legs. "This isn't a goodbye."
"I know. I'm pregnant and need my husband right now." She kisses his neck and he wraps his arms around her waist, lowering her down on the bed.
The next morning, Dom wakes up early to leave for the airport. He grabs his bag and walks over to Letty who's still asleep. He croutches down and puts his hand on her showing belly with her shirt pulled up. He's reminded of how he left her in the DR and how the next thing he knew she was dead (supposabley). Now he's leaving his wife again and his children to end what he started.
"Letty, wake up."
"Mmm, are you leaving?"
"I gotta head over to catch the next plane out. I'll call as soon as I land." He says as he touches her cheek.
"Be safe."
"I will. Anything happens you know where the keys are." She nods in agreeance. He kisses her and moves down to give two kisses to her stomach. "Don't give your momma too much trouble." He says as she slowly smiles as she held his hand.
"I love you."
"Love you too." He kisses the knuckle of her hand. He stands up and let's go as he walks away. Her eyes slowly close as he closes the door and she falls back to sleep. He walks over to Cami's room and peeps his head inside. She's fast asleep under the covers barricaded by her pillows. He tip toes in and kisses her forehead. He notices her slightly moving and knows that she's awake. Letty always has the habit of that.
"I'll be back soon kid."
"Love you pop."
"Love you too."
He stands up and starts to walk out the room. He sees her cross necklace hanging on her nightstand. He gave it to her the night she was born to have something of her parents. He goes back to walking out the room, slowly closing the door.
Letty is in the kitchen making herself tea . She's be distracting herself all day from worrying about Dom. She's never been the one to panic about where her man is but her hormones has her head everywhere. She prayed this morning and has the necklace around her neck today along with her rosery. She sits down on the couch when Camille walks down the stairs. She comes in the living room carrying a book and sets it down on the table.
"What's that?"
"My baby book. Well it's every picture I ever took growing up. I know I haven't been easy and you and dad want to be part of my life so I wanted to show you." Letty sat down and opened the book to see all of Cami's baby pictures. "This was when I started to learn how to walk." She says as she shows her a picture of her as a baby playing in a toy car.
"You look just like your aunt Mia here. You have the same dimples."
"This one was from my fifth grade graduation. I didn't want to wear a dress so I came in jeans and a plaid shirt." Cami says as she points at the book.
"That's something I would do." She laughs. Letty flips several pages to see a new page set in the book. A photo of the two of them and Dom in New York.
"I put that in their after we came back. I always wanted to know who you guys were and where I got alot of who I am from."
"Did we meet your expectations?'
"You both were more than what I was hoping for."
Letty smiled and hugged her daughter. "I love you baby girl."
"I love you too mom."
"They're interuptted by noises coming from the intercom. Letty looked over at the video camera placed at the front gate. "What is going on?" "She gets up and looks at the camera through her Ipad and saw the guard argue with somebody. The next thing that happens the guard is shot in the chest. "Cami go to the garage now."
"What's going on?"
"We don't have time, we need to go." Letty rushes to grab the emergency keys to the car. She and Cami run to the garage and Letty shuts the door behind her. She she's a car driving up the hill toward the house and knew they were in danger. She moves the tool cart and uncovers a secret door. "Get inside." They both climb down the hatch and Letty eases herself down as she closes the door and locks it from the inside.
"Mom where are we?"
"Your dad made an escape route in case something happened." She says as they're walking toward the dodge charger. "Our bags are already in the trunk, get in."
They hop in the car and Letty started the car quick. She hits the panel on the hood and a door opened as an exit in the distance. She floored it drives through the tunnel. They get to ground level and they pull off as the house was in the distance.
"Who was that?"
"Cipher's hitmen. She knew your dad was gone and wanted to take us when we didn't expect it."
"Where are we going?"
"There's somebody your dad and I know nearby that can hide us for awhile."
