Chapter 14
Jesse's POV
I have been waiting an hour to be seen in this outpatient clinic. Damn how long does it take to get to see a doctor? Sick people sit all around me. A young woman sits in the corner with a small child in her arms. The baby reminds me of Aria. Her face is red from crying, poor child. I get up from my seat and head to the nurse's desk, "Excuse me. Could you tell me how long it will be before I am seen?"
The overweight nurse doesn't even look up from her paperwork when she huffs and says, "Do you think you are special? It will be your turn we I call for you."
I can't take this shit anymore, "You can cross my name off your list Bitch. The name's Jesse Allen. See ya." With that I turn and leave. I know that Bella will be pissed but this isn't worth the aggravation, I am going to get my daughter and take her to the park.
************************************************************************
The women at the daycare center are very polite and say that they have been expecting me. They show me to the playroom. Aria runs to me as soon as I walked in, "Daddy, Daddy." I pull her into my arms and kiss her cheek.
"Well, sweetheart would you like to go for a ride with Daddy?" She smiles and nods her head. "Let's go then." Tara, Bella's caregiver, brings me the diaper bag and me and my daughter head out the door.
First stop will be Toretto's grocery to get something for lunch. Mia is standing at the counter talking to Brian when we arrive. She forgets all about Brian when she sees the baby, grabbing her from my arms and kissing her all over. "Hey Brian how are you doing?"
"Great man and you?"
"Couldn't be better." Just as I say that I hear the cars coming. Shit talk about bad timing and there's no time to run. I turn around to see Dom, Letty, Leon and Vince pull into their spots. Great, Dom is going to kick my ass. Can this day get any worse? Dom gets out of his car and wipes his hand across his head and head straight towards me. Leon and Letty are starting to panic and run up behind him. He turns around and tells them both to back off and before I know it he is inches from me.
"What are you doing here?" He growls.
"Getting lunch for Aria and myself."
"Where's Bella?"
"She is working at Hector's garage."
"Hector's garage? Why is she working? I want her to go back to school. Why the hell doesn't she listen to me?"
Mia laughs, "Because she is as stubborn as you are and her mind has already been made up. No one can change her mind."
Dom grins at her, "No one huh? I bet I could change her mind."
"Care to put your money where your mouth is Big Brother?"
He laughs, "Let's make it a thousand. If I get her back into college, the money's mine else it's yours."
They shake hands and Mia smiles, "Deal, this will be easy money. Oh and you have one month to get the job done."
"I won't need that long. Jesse get whatever you need for you and the baby and get out of here. O' Conner take some food over to Bella at the garage and find out what she is doing exactly."
I grab a few items and head to the park with Leon in tow.
