Zach and Trini are riding in the car together to get the girls. Trini is driving and Zach is in the passenger seat giving her a mouth full.
Zach: I know I promised Kim that I wouldn't put my hands on him. However, Trini if I see him at his parents' house there will be a problem.
Trini: No there will not! (Sternly)Not, if the girls are there. They are innocent in this. (mumbles)Besides they love the idiot.
Zach: I your right (sighs)I just can't believe the nerve of that guy. Who does he think he is putting his hands on her? Especially when Kimberly has us. Like he has serious balls.
Trini: or a death wish! I thought Jason wasn't going to stop. He had Henry turning blue.
Zach: What stopped him?
Trini:(smirks)Our son
Zach: That is a good reason.(Trini pulls up to a small brick home) Do they know that we are picking up the kids?(Donald's father, Donald Sr. walks onto the porch with a smile and a wave)
Trini:(simply) Yes
Zach: He seems happy to see us(Trini smiles and waves back)Do you think he knows?
Trini: I doubt it! Besides, Donald Sr. and Henry have a strained relationship. He loves Kimberly and is always on her side. He'd probably disown him if he find outs.
Zach: I like Donald Sr. already(Trini laughs and turns off the car)
Trini: Come on(they out and head towards the house)
Donald Sr.: Well hello(Trini and Zach walk over to the porch)
Zach: Hello there
Trini: Hello Donald Senior(Trini goes to climb the stairs)
Donald Sr.: No ma'am(Trini stops confused)you look like you are due any day. You do not have to climb any steps. I'll come down to you(Trini now smiles) Betty will be around with the girls so .(walks down and gives Trini a slight hug and then shakes Zach hand) How are you feeling Trini?
Trini: Like a whale(they laugh)and you didn't have to walk down. I could've made it.
Donald Sr.: Poppy Cock!(waves)You shouldn't even be on your feet. How long do you have?(Trini rubs her stomach with a smile)
Trini: Less than two months
Donald Sr.: A Boy?
Trini: Yes
Donald Sr.: I know Jason is thrilled!
Trini: You're not kidding! He's looking for baby baseball leagues as we speak(they laugh)
Donald Sr.:(laughs)Don't I know it!? I was thrilled when I found out that I was having my first son Eddie. Then when I had Jr.(Zach frowns a little)I was like "ok" two boys. This could be fun. But boy was I wrong. I wish that I had a "Donna"(Zach now chuckles. Trini shoots him a look)
Trini: Zachary!
Donald Sr.: It's ok Trini(smiles)Boys are great but little girls make the home gentle. That is why I was so happy Kimberly had my little granddaughters. That's one thing that Junior did right other than marrying Kimberly.
Zach: Yeah Kimberly is amazing!
Donald Sr.: An angel! You know when Kimberly left Jr. before he proposed(Zach nods)I had to sit him down and tell him what he is missing out on.
Zach:(thinking) So(crosses his arms)it's your fault for that half ass proposal and the suck ass marriage?(Trini smirks knowing that Zack is thinking wha she's thinking)
Donald Sr.: She is something special and not to many young girls have their stuff together you know?
Zach:(smiles)Yeah I agree
Donald Sr.: Your name is Zach right?(he nods)You lost your wife a couple of months ago?
Zach:(clears his voice)I did(Donald Sr. touches his shoulder)
Donald Sr.: I'm sorry to hear that son.(Zach simply nods and Donald Sr. takes his hand down)I know she was one of a kind.
Zach: Nothing like her!(Trini hugs him in a side hug and Zach wraps an arm around her)
Donald Sr.: That's what I had to remind my son. He wasn't going to find nothing like Kim.
Betty: Senior(they look at the door and Betty is standing their holding Emma and Amy's hand along with a diaper bag)Would you stop with the Henry and Kim story….and grab the babies? Hello Trini and Zach
Zach: Hello Mrs. Betty
Trini: Hi(Donald walks up to the door and opens it)
Donald Sr.: Come here Peaches and Cream(lifts them up and blows raspberries on their cheek)
Emma: No!(laughs)Pop Pop!(Betty walks out of the house as Senior walks down the steps)
Betty:(smirks)Don't rile them up! (To Trini)They haven't had their naps
Trini: Thanks(laughs at the girls jumping into Zach's arms)for the heads up(Zach swings them around and they cheer with excitement)
Betty: I see if Senior won't rile them up Uncle Zach will
Trini: It wouldn't be him if he didn't
Betty:(laughs)I see(smirks)Wow you're growing?(looks at her stomach)
Trini: Yes(pats her stomach)he is a big boy!
Betty: May I?(walks down)
Trini: Sure(Betty touches her stomach)
Betty: Hello little man! Trini he strong
Trini:(laughs)So are his kicks!
Betty:(laughs)Yes(takes her hands down)Jr. had strong kicks. Eddie not so much.
Donald Sr.: He wasn't a trouble maker like his brother.
Betty: Don't start with Senior(crosses her arms)and if he was a trouble maker he got it from you.
Zach: Trini(she looks at him)ummmm you should get off your feet(everyone looks down and sees her swollen ankles)
Betty: Oh dear! He's right!
Trini:(thinking)Good thinking Zach(nods and says) Yeah I know….let's go
Donald Sr.: We'll walk you to the car(takes the diaper bag from his wife and they head for the car)
Zach:(to Trini)I will drive!
Trini: Ok
Betty: So where is Kimberly?
Donald Sr.: Now you don't start!
Betty: I just want to know WHY she couldn't pick them up(Trini opens the door and Zach places them in the car and one by one buckles them into their car seat)
Trini: She had to work
Betty: I didn't know she was in town until she called this morning
Donald Sr.: Obviously things changed
Emma: I want mommy
Zach:(smiles)We're going to go see mommy pretty girl(takes the diaper bag from Senior)thank you
Betty: All of a sudden(crosses her arms)Jr. has the girls for the whole weekend….
Donald Sr.: Scratch that Betty….WEEEEE would've had them for the whole weekend.
Betty: Doesn't change the fact that she came home early.
Zach: Well we are about to head up the road.(smiles)Looks like Amy is getting ahead start on her nap(Trini hands him the keys and heads for the passenger side of the car)
Betty: Oh(quickly goes to the back seat with Senior)See you later monsters
Amy:(yawns)bye grandma(Emma waves)
Donald Sr.: We love you buttercups(all of a sudden Donald pulls up in his car and parks crub side. Zach frowns)
Betty: Jr. what are you doing here?(he gets out his car and walks over)
Henry: Hey mom(she hugs him and he kisses her head)Hey Senior(looks at Zach glares)Zach!
Trini:(warning)Zach get in the car(Zach doesn't move. Betty and Sr. look between the both of them)NOW!
Donald Sr.: Is everything ok with you two?
Henry: Is there a problem Zach?(he goes to answer but stops)
Zach:(thinking) I promised Kimberly on my beloved wife.(looks at Henry without smiling) Devil you almost had me.
Betty: What is going on?(looks at her son)JR.?! What happened to your face(reaches up and touches his face. Donald Sr. glances at it then at Zach)(angrily)Did(looks at Zach)you do this to my son?
Zach: Didn't touch him!(chuckles)I'm actually surprised myself.
Donald Sr.: Zach didn't touch him(looks at his son)He went and got himself into some type of trouble. Didn't you Boy?
Betty: Your blaming him….and he is hurt?!(softly)my poor boy(Henry grabs her hands and smiles)
Henry: I'm ok! It's not as bad as it looks.(kisses her)Mom, Zach has nothing to do with my face.
Betty: Then what happened to you?
Henry: I need to talk to you guys in private. But, let me say bye to my babies(goes into the car and sees Trini staring daggers at him)mm(looks at his daughters who are drifting off)Bye sweethearts(kisses them)I will see you soon. I love you
Girls: Wove you(Henry smiles at them. Zach opens the drives door as he close the back car door)
Betty:(angrily)That Kimberly has something to do with it?!
Trini:(outraged)THAT KIMBERLY?(Betty looks at Trini surprised)Let me tell you something….
Zach: Tiger(looks at the kids)Don't!(Trini mumbles and turns away)It was great seeing you guys. I hope that you enjoy the rest of you day(Betty says nothing and looks at her son)
Donald Sr.: Thank you Zach(crosses his arms) You too(Zach climbs in the car and closes the door)
Zach: You almost(starts the car up)you almost bit her head off(makes sure it's clear and backs out of the drive away before driving towards Trini's house)
Trini: No one messes with Kimberly….and gets away with it.
Zach: I see that!(laughs)You almost went full Saber Tooth tiger(they laugh)
Trini: Hush! I wouldn't of went in that bad!(touches his hand that is not on the stirring wheel)thanks for pulling me back. Kim would've been mad if I had gotten banned from her in laws(Zach laughs)
Zach: Yeah she would! I just didn't want my nieces to witness that argument.
Trini: That is true! Zach you did really good a few minutes ago with keeping the situation calm and making this a smooth transaction. Kim and Angie would be proud of you.
Zach: Thanks Tree!(they pause and Zach starts laughing again)
Trini: What's so funny?
Zach: Jason did some real damage to Henry. I almost felt bad for him.
Trini: I know!(sighs) It wasn't Jason's best moment(pauses)Just think if Tommy was still around and he had put his hands on Kimberly.
Zach: He would be buried alive(Trini nods)That would by scary. I don't think Kim would even be able to save him. (laughs)He would go total evil Green Ranger on him.(Trini laughs) Better yet, if Tommy was still around Henry wouldn't be a factor and Tommy would have the twin daughters and Kimberly forever(Trini laughs and looks at the sleeping girls in the back)
Trini: That is so true! Emma is like a little Tommy too(shivers)Sometimes I think Kim had a one nighter and made the twins with Tommy.
Zach: Now, that would be wonderful wouldn't it? Henry would be out of her and our lives forever.
Trini: mm(looks at him)that would be so nice!
Zach: Do you think Senior is gonna hand Jr. his ass for hitting Kim and ruining his marriage with infidelity?
Trini: Oh he will try...But, Betty will protect him. She's a mom...that's what we do(Zach glances at her for a second before looking at the road while nodding)(sighs)So how do you think Kim will tell the girls?
Zach: I don't know! But, we'll be there for her(takes Trini's hand again)
Trini: No matter what.(pulls out her phone)I'll call Kim and let her know we have them.(Zach nods as Trini calls Kim)
Well there it is! The beginning of a messy divore. Thank you for the views. Keep them coming.
