Miami, Florida
Nakamura Hotel
JR sat in the hotel restaurant nursing his drink waiting for his sister or Koji to make an appearance. He sat thinking of what his daughter had said to him before storming off and ignoring his calls before changing her number. While he and his wife were besides themselves she had called her mother from work and told her that she was fine. And that she didn't need to worry but they did. She was his baby girl, his only daughter he even. Tried calling his eldest son but he wasn't interested in talking to him because he was still very angry about his father not believing him. It had been over 18 years since he saw or his eldest son who didn't want him to be apart of his life he only saw his grandchildren in pictures. And he wanted to avoid that with Rubia she was his only daughter and she ment the world to him.
Flashback
"Dime Morei '' Jose Carlos said with a smile, stopping when he saw his little cousin sitting outside the house, when the 6 year old looked up at him sadly. With dried tear stains on her face. Wiping her face with the back of her hand as he knelt down in front of her when a friend of his pass by "Oye Manito déjame hablar contigo un minuto hola chula" (Oye Manito let me talk to you for a minute hi sweetie ")Gadiel says waving at Reya. Who just looked up then away from him "Morei Reya por qué no estás en la casa es tarde" he asked.
When his friend pulled him by the arm "Loco tu abuela no está y la encontré vagando por la calle. Mi madre trató de darle algo de comer, pero ella no lo tomó, ha estado sentada allí durante horas. ( Loco your grandmother isn't here and I found her wandering the street. My mother tried to give her something to eat but she wouldn't take it she's been sitting there for hours) , his friend says.
"Whatchu mean she's gonna she just left her she's only 6 years old outside " Jose Carlos says angrily , "I don't know but she did say that your grandmother told her to sit there. And not to move loco my grandmother was watching her from the window. We tried to get in contact with your aunt but we got no answer" Gadiel says, "Coño meng because they are in Estados Unidos. Do you know how long my grandmother was gone? '' he questions as his friend shook his head, "Nah Loco" he says as they look back at the little girl.
Jose Carlos was beyond piss "Coño que carajo I fucking knew it" he said turning around and going to pick her up. When she flinched that's when he knew something was going on "Morei Tienes hambre has comido" he questioned running his hands through her hair. That's when he saw it was dirty with his friend looking at him in disbelief. "Abuela dice que no se mueva" Reya answered with a low voice , "Reya that's not what I asked you, have you eaten" JC asked again as she looked down. She didn't need to answer because he knew "Loco she doesn't look like she bathes her either. Loco when you guys aren't here that little girl will be sleeping outside in the yard" Gadiel whispered in his ear so Reya wouldn't hear him.
Trying to hold his tears at bay as he brought her into the house and took her into the bathroom when she stood in the corner. "Ven ca muchacha" he said as she shook her head "Abuela said to never go into her bathroom ever" the little girl said afraid. "Well where does she bathe you? '' he asked his stomach in knots when she pointed outside. That's when his stomach dropped with tears forming in his eyes when he turned the water on "well guess what she's not here ven ca and get in the tub. I'll be right back okay " Jose Carlos says stepping out the bathroom to make a call to his aunt then his grandfather.
Crying to himself before he came back inside using the water to wash the dirt off her then bathing her and washing her hair then changing her clothes. Brushing her hair and putting it in a ponytail "Todo mejor, ¿verdad? Ahora te ves aún más guapa, ¿verdad?" He said as he brushed her hair back, smiling at her. As she shook her head sadly "Rigoberto said I'm ugly and I belong at the zoo" she whispered as gritted his teeth "Reya mirame you are beautiful okay"he said then cleaning up and feeding her his jaw clenched watching her rush to eat the food.
"Take your time Reya so you don't choke, okay" he said looking down "sorry" Reya says. "It's okay you didn't do nothing just take your time okay" Jose Carlos replies kissing her on top of her head it was the first time she smiled. That's when he noticed the deep dimples she had that he had never seen before "My papi does that '' she said, "yeah Papi is the best right" he says. As she shook her head " Yes he's funny" Reya answered with a smile, When he pulled his chair in front of her "Reya where's mama and everybody" he questioned as the little girl shrugged.
" She says I didn't behave so I couldn't go with them and she said stay outside and not to move" she says while playing with her food. "When's the last time you ate something before right now? '' Jose Carlos asked, making her hang her head low as he picked her head up to look at him. "Yesterday morning, and I had a mango that fell off the tree, please don't tell her," she answered, confirming his suspicions.
Shaking his head, "Reya, does Mama give you papo's? '' he says , "Can I finish my food now Jose Carlos ?" she asked, trying to avoid his question. With a nod "go ahead and finish I have to run back outside for something" he replies angry she didn't need to answer him he knew. After she ate, she brought her to his friend's house. "Bethzadia can watch Reya for me and keep her until I come back. '' he said.
"Yeah sure what's up hi Reya tan bonito" the girl says when Reya shook her head no further angering Jose Carlos. "Just keep her until I come back, tell nobody she's here, alright take care of her for me please, Rey Rey mirame muchacha I'll be back okay" he says. As she shook her head as Bethzadia took her hand "Ven ca muchacha your so pretty" Bethzaida says taking her hand.
With him watching before leaving, walking around for a while then going to his fathers job " Papi I need to talk to you" he says as his father smiled when he saw him. "Que paso mijo" JR said, " what do you do if you know that someone you care about was hurting someone else's child" Jose Carlos says. Making his father stop "Well you do the right thing you have to think about if that was your younger brothers or your sister" the man said.
"Papi I have to tell you something Mama is abusing Reya. I found her outside by herself for I don't even know how long . She left her there where anything can happen to her and I went to touch her and she flinched. And was dirty like she hadn't bathed in I don't know how long and she said that Mama said to stay outside on the porch until she came back" he said. Shaking his head "My mother would never do that at all. Have you ever seen her do that with your own eyes then you can't say it's her.
Reya likes to wonder and do things she's not supposed to do '' his father said when Jose Carlos shook his head "I didn't need her behavior to prove it PAPI. SOMEONE IN THAT HOUSE IS HITTING HER BECAUSE I KNOW TITI AND TIO KOJI DOESN'T SO WHO IS IT PAPA he's not home. Is it Rigoberto, Ismael or Starlin who is it then ? '' the teen shouted, "Stop it she will never do that okay has she ever hit you or your brothers or Rubia no verdad.
So why would you assume that you will not bring this up these accusations again? Do you know what that would do to your grandmother? Huh why would she do that, use your head Jose Carlos" JR said angrily,
"Umm I don't know, maybe because she hates moreno's and Reya is a morena verdad Papi. You know how she goes on and on about how you have to date someone with straight hair and light eyes. So our children can be lighter" he shot back.
"DEJALO LA fucking mierda oyete don't you ever say that she isnt' OKAY now you stop this nonsense go home I'll be by to pick up you guys up" his father said. As the seventeen year old glared at him "You know don't you and you allowed Reya's just a little girl just like Rubia would you let someone do that to her. What happened to do the right thing huh Papi she' just kid" Jose Carlos spat before he stormed out the office.
Running his hand over his face when he looked up and saw his baby sister making him get up "Lissel can I talk to you for a minute" he says making her look at him "about what JR I have nothing to do with your son being arrested. He did that all on his own because he thought he could assault someone and get away with it which doesn't surprise me.
All the time he and those other little bastards hit my child and got away with it right what do you want huh JR Rubia isn't here" she says. As he nods his head"I deserved that okay Lissel I'm sorry okay but Mami was trying to protect you from the scrutiny" JR says, "wow condescending much you say sorry and then try to make it okay.
She didn't protect shit where was her protection when Belkis showed up at her house 2 clock in the morning with her children in tow? What did she do JR huh? She sent her back to her abuser who killed her. In front of her children then blamed someone else for it because she was going to leave him and take the children with her.
Now what about my baby did she protect her no you don't know the half of what my baby girl had to endure. So what are you sorry for JR not protecting my child like I've done yours so many times or are you sorry for allowing it to happen" Lissel said bluntly, "I didn't know okay I never thought she would do that Lissel she loves you so much" he said.
"No don't give me that bullshit JR you knew you didn't care because it didn't affect you at the time you're regretting now right. And now because her prized grandchild doesn't want the life that your mother craved doing over with your child. You created that JR and now you have a problem with your daughter and you're in my face for what.
Te acuerdas de lo que me dijiste Jr porque me dijiste que mis hijos eran un error. Lo que hice para fastidiar a tu madre por hacer lo mejor para mí resulta que yo tenía razón y tú estabas equivocado. Y ahora quieres que te ayude a hablar con tus hijos por las tonterías que permitiste. Le diste rienda suelta a tu madre. Con su familia sobre su propia esposa, todavía no me arrepiento de nada y lo haré de nuevo.
Menos la mierda de tu madre que permití porque pensé que ella me amaba, no lo hizo y eso es culpa mía, tengo que vivir con eso. Así que te sugiero que hagas lo mismo hermano mayor porque lo único que lamento es confiar en tu" ( Do you remember what you told me Jr because I do you told me that my children were a mistake. That I did to spite your mother for doing what was best for me turns out I was right and you were wrong. And now you want me to help you talk to your kids for the bullshit you allowed You gave your mother free reign.
With YOUR family over your own wife I have yet to regret any of it and I will do it all over again. Minus your mothers bullshit that I allowed because I thought she loved me she didn't and that's on me I have to live with that. So I suggest you do the same big brother because the only thing I regret is trusting your mother") she says.
"I WAS WRONG OKAY LISSEL, I'M SORRY WHAT YOU WANT ME TO SAY SHE'S MY MOTHER SHE NEVER HURT ME SHE ALWAYS LOVED ME" he replies. Shaking her "What's the point of this, do you just like going back and forth over this'' Lissel questioned "Because to save my family Lissel I don't want to lose my wife or my kids okay I see it alright" JR says.
"Do you think that your mother is the reason you are in this mess but now you want my help after all this time? What would you like me to do JR I can't do anything you have to speak to your children. Yourself and you have to actually be sorry and remorseful for what happened in your family.
Not that half ass apology you wanted to feed me when you approached me you have to hold your mother. Accountable for the things that she has done and until you do that there is nothing you can do JR I can't do it for you. Big brother you have to do that but now you have to go Jr" she tells him, when suddenly "Titi, Papi what is he doing here" Jose Carlos says. From behind them "fuck he just showed up to ask for my help" she said then turning to her nephew and his wife and kids.
His wife was 6 '0 she looked similar to Tika Sumpter as his father looked on in shock " Jose Carlos espera hijo por favor solo cinco minutos por favor si no por mi sino por tu madre" JR spoke. Glaring at his father the hurt still resonating in him "Don't do that don't make it about Mami her, Rubia I will see not you or those assholes you call sons.
Valentina take them to my Titi office please" he said putting their son in her arms as she took their daughter. Then wait until they are a safe distance away "Mijo listen I know okay and I'm sorry" the man says. "You're sorry you called me a liar to my face and not to speak of your mother that way you knew what was going on. And you just let it happen Reya was a little girl and she didn't deserve it. Do you know Rigo and his little friends used to pull her pants down.
To see what her private looks like, do you know that and Rigo and Ismael would laugh as they would hold her down. Until Tio Miguelito caught them and beat all of them and your mother got mad with him that's why they didn't speak. That could have been Rubia do you know that and you stand by and did nothing you are a fucking coward. You let her do what she wanted. Everyone else wasn't there as often as we're so they didn't know. Because they couldn't stomach abuela either and they didn't want that kind of behavior around their families.
I remember the day Reya was born and all I know was I loved her so much, me and Octavio did. She was the first girl since Alison and Carlina. When titi put her in my arms I was so overwhelmed because I just had brothers and I wanted a little sister. And she was the closest thing to it and you turned a blind eye to everything and I told you what was going on and you think.
I want to expose that to my wife and my children. I'm gonna protect them from that titi. I'm sorry I just wish I was there all those times" Jose Carlos said. Getting emotional as his father stood stunned "No, No, No you have to be kidding me what have I done" JR says. Tears filled his eyes as he looked at his youngest sister as he held his stomach then he started to sob.
As Lissel and his son stood there watching him "JR mi amor que pasa donde esta Rubia '' Carmen says, when he pushed her away "no me toques suéltame" he replies. That's when she saw Jose Carlos covering her mouth in disbelief "JR what's wrong, Jose Carlos you're here" she said. With Lissel rolling her eyes ``JR get yourself together you're causing a scene now you know why I do what I do for your boys it's too late.
They are grown men perpetuating what was taught to them for your sake. I hope you do what you have to do. Carmen two visits in the matter of weeks must be a record Jose Carlos let's go" Lissel says walking away leaving her brother in tears. "No, No Jose Carlos please stay, it's been a long time, what's wrong with my son" Carmen says.
While JR stood with his head down sobbing when Lissels saw her husband all she did was shake her head. Then pushing him the other direction leaving them where they were as Carmen tried to get JR to speak to her but he wanted no parts of it. Before he stormed out leaving his mother standing there when she turned and went after him but he sped off.
Port Charles, New York
Morgan's penthouse
She stood speechless "Come Nakamura don't leave me guessing" Morgan said as she shook her head "Yes, Yes I will marry you" she answered. Making him sigh with relief before getting up and kissing her "I love you so much you have just made me the happiest man on the entire planet" he says. As he slid the ring on her finger " Oh shit Morgan wait I have to end things with your brother before I put this on" Reya said.
Kissing her "Fuck him Rey, Fuck him right now I want to celebrate with my beautiful voluptuous fiance" he says grabbing her behind. With her letting out a low moan before she pulled back grabbing his face "No Morgan I have to tell him I owe him that stop I'm coming back. And you can then put this back on my finger I promise" she says.
He sighs holding her by the hips "Fine Rey but come back here and I'm gonna put that back on your finger and we are gonna start. Our life over and I'm getting it right this time" Morgan says with a grin as she kisses him "I'll be back I gotta go" Reya replies putting the ring back in his hand. Then going to leave texting her sister and reading her messages as she went to leave with Morgan behind her "I will come with you" he says.
"I know you will but I have to do this and he doesn't need an audience and I should have told him "she replies. "Should have told me what that you know my brother yeah you should have why didn't you Reya. And I bet you got a kick out if it didn't you huh Morgan '' Michael said as Reya shook her head already reading his reaction. "He's the CMO at the company that me and a group of friends own where I am the CFO so yes and I didn't tell you because it wasn't a big deal" she says. "IF I WASN'T A BIG DEAL WHY NOT JUST TELL THE TRUTH HUH IS HE THE REASON YOU DIDN'T WANT A GUARD. SO YOU CAN SNEAK AROUND WITH MY BROTHER AND YOU WERE YOU REALLY HELPING ME" he spat angrily.
As her head snapped looking towards him "OH YOU GOT THE RIGHT ONE TODAY FIRST OFF BRING YOUR FUCKING VOICE DOWN THATS OFF BAT BECAUSE WHEN I NEED YOUR AGRESSION. YOU COULDN'T GIVE IT TO ME WORTH A DAMN AND SECOND LIKE I SAID A MILLION TIMES OVER I CAN. PROTECT MY MOTHERFUCKING SELF POINT BLANK PERIOD I DON'T NEED SOME LAME ASS DUDES GUARDING. I GUESS WHAT HE DIDN'T DO SHIT WHEN SOMEONE TRIED TO ROB ME WHERE WAS THAT CHUMP. THEN NOWHERE TO BE FOUND NOW LET'S NOT FORGET YOU FUCKING WITH YOUR EX SO YOU REALLY WANNA TAKE IT.
THEN I CAN GO THERE YES I FUCKED YOUR BROTHER BEFORE YEARS AGO HOW ABOUT THAT you fucking crazy. Who the fuck do you think your are talking to me like that I would air your ass out you got the right bitch today" Reya says taking her earrings off. "Hey, Hey stop don't alright let me handle this I got this Rey I promise" Morgan says stopping her from swinging. Leaving Michael shocked by what he said "YOU SON OF A BITCH" he lunged forward and swung at Morgan but he missed. That's when Morgan moved Reya out the way as they traded shots at each other when she whistled. "STOP WHAT THE FUCK" she shouted. "What happened Mikey you don't like it much right karma's a bitch huh you messed around with Kiki behind my back.
And you know how it feels but to be honest she was always mine to begin with from our first dance, first kiss, the first time we had sex. So you were just a placeholder who can't handle her bitch" Morgan says, "She isn't property of yours Morgan and that is what you're into someone who treats you like property. I thought you had a little more class then that I guess not huh" Michael spat just as their parents rushed in. "Be real careful Mikey of course she isn't property but that girl has always been mine just like. I've always been her, she knows, I know and now your bitch ass knows it too"he replies.
As Reya stepped in between them " Cono that's enough look Michael you took it there not me and you're lucky that I have a little respect for you. Because if you were anyone else you would have been picking your jaw up off the floor I promise you that. Fucking play with me fucking payaso" Reya says, as Morgan kept his hand around her waist to keep her back. Making Michael scoff "You lie and I'm the bad guy. I thought you were better than that. But I guess not right because he's the guy you were sleeping with. On and off right sorry to break it to you Reya he's not relationship material but you guys can have each other. And you Morgan you are dead to me do you hear me you betray me for her does she knows it's a game to you and that you don't care" Michael spat.
"You think I give a fuck abut you Michael you've been dead to me I just learn to play the part payback is a bitch. And she was always it for me, your bitch ass just lit a fire that I'm gonna get MY WOMAN BACK"he snapped back. "I may have not told you that I knew him but you fucked your baby mother in a hospital room while your son was a sleep. You must be stupid to think that shit even compares to me not saying he was my ex because he and I were broken up payaso. And you think me know your brother prior to meeting and dating you that is worst then you FUCKING YOUR BABY MOTHER.
Behind my back and her husband detective Chase fuck you don't get yourself fucked up because you have no idea. Why me and him had issues but I see it clearly now the fuck your father is a mini domineering chauvinist and your mother is a fucking controll freak. Like who inserts themselves in their 31 year old sons life i'm 26 years old and my parents would never unless i asked them too. And that is never unless my mother felt like you tried me then she will get involved but damn that woman. Feels the need to just insert every little thing ,did you find what you were looking for on me by the way. Yes I was arrested for fighting my cousins because they are assholes and thought it would be okay to jump me.
While I was 12 weeks pregnant with your grandchild that I lost so there you don't have to keep digging there you have it i'm getting the fuck out of here. Matter of fact so there is no confusion you can put it on me now you got the wrong one today" Reya says turning to Morgan. Who smiled then going into his pocket and taking out the ring and putting it on her finger "I guess I am the relationship kind of guy dumbass" Morgan says. When Morgan ran forward picking Michael up off his feet and slamming him into the coffee table then punching him continuously. As their parents jumped in to break it up 'Michael, Morgan stopped this right Now let your brother go" Carly says trying to get him off.
When Sonny pried him off "WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU HE'S YOUR BROTHER AND FOR HER" Sonny says as Morgan shoved him away "Damn right for her I would do anything for her you think you gonna bash me. In front of my woman and disrespect her hell no yo see that there Mikey that's the power she gets off on. That's why I lift as much as I do and trust me I can lift her up like she weighs nothing" he snapped. "Wait what hell no over my dead body you are '' Carly says as Sonny grabbed her "Alright enough you need to go NOW !. Because If I let her go things aren't gonna end well for you GO" he says.
When Reya laughed "OH Please let her go" she says with a shrug, "Let me go Sonny bitch I will make you regret trying to destroy my boys" she says struggling to get out of his grasp. Morgan grabbed Reya's hand "She isn't going anywhere but you guys can go though you can't take that bitch with you" Morgan says glaring at Michael. As Sonny put his hand on Michael's chest to hold him back "Let me go dad neither one of them are worth it" Michael spat, " Neither were you but I sure tried it though I'm flabbergasted. By your fake ass outrage when you did this not me I matched your energy whatever, digame" Reya says answering her phone. "Just go Morgan we are gonna talk about this now she has to go and you better be lucky I haven't beaten your ass" Carly spat.
With Sonny's arm around her stopping her "Oh please do bitch because I would really like to see you try because I will gut you wide open, Hi manita , Hi Mo. Oh and you I was really rooting for you but the moment you crossed my sister there was a problem" Reign replies standing there. "Hey Rey ''Rubia says from behind Reign " Rubia what are you doing here" Reya questioned. With Reign's eyes on Carly "Rey Rey you good manita" her sister asked, "I'm good manita Bitchi wa ugokidasu junbi o shite iru, kono 2-ri wa watashi o tomeyou to surudarou watashi wa ima kono heya de saidai no kyōida (the bitch is getting ready to make a move and these two will try and stop me i'm the biggest threat in this room right now you can probably get a better angle if she tries something") Reya responds. "Rey I got you darenimo kizutsuke sasenai'' Morgan says watching both sisters Reign smiled "Fine. Rubia can you step outside please" Reign said with her eyes on Carly and Sonny, Demonios, no, estás loco, dijiste que este hombre es un asesino. Tengo tu Titi en marcación rápida. ( Hell no are you crazy you said this man is a killer I have Titi on speed dial) Rubia said.
"Y todos ustedes serán sabios para no cruzarme ahora Dije vete AHORA NO LO DIRÉ de nuevo (And you will all be wise not to cross me now I said go NOW I WON'T say it again) Sonny says making Rubia swallow hard. Reya chuckled "ay por si decides ser estúpido pintaré a esta perra de rojo te lo prometo y te arrepentirás gravemente ( oh in case you decide to be stupid I will paint this bitch red I promise you that and you will regret grievously) she replies. Looking Sonny straight in the face just as Carly went to attack Reya when Reign grabbed her by the hair then held a knife to her throat. Taking both Michael and Sonny by surprise "Reign let her go they are leaving.
I will not let anyone hurt Rey. I promise you have my word on that. Dad, Michael get the fuck out right now " Morgan says bluntly, "you must not be very bright" the man said reaching for his gun. When he felt a gun to the back of his head "get your hand of that gun right now Mr. Corinthos. Because there are 3 people in this room who will kill you with so much ease it will shock you. Now I have no issues with you but you think you or your wife will hurt anyone in this room will be a big mistake.
Rubia go back down to the car my cousin is in the hallway, babe you can let her go now it's under control" Sharod says. "I'm not leaving my cousins in here, are you crazy we all walk out of here together" Rubia said, "Rubia look at me everything's okay just do what he said alright me and Reign will be out here in a minute" Reya said. "I will let this bitch go if she doesn't try to attack my sister again" Reign replies, "She's not gonna touch your sister I promise" Morgan says. When she shoved Carly into Michael and Sonny who wrapped his arm around his wife with Sharod still keeping the gun trained on them. "Easy Carly, easy now that you crossed me and my family. I think it's time for you to go because we need to talk to our sons.
And in due time you will get yours" Sonny says with a dimpled smile, that made Reya laugh "No we won't you're gonna drop it before the I Do's. Morgan, I'll talk to you soon. I'm gonna go take care of some business and Sharod and my sister will take care of the club" Reya says. "Like hell sweetheart you will never marry my son I don't care if you were pregnant with his child" Carly spat. When Reya smiled "If you say byeee" Reya said with her Reign and Rubia walking out with her and Sharod last who closed the door.
That's when Carly's head swung "HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND THAT YOU GO AND DO THIS TO YOUR BROTHER BEHIND HIS BACK" Carly spat. Morgan scoffed "You know what's funny? Where was this same energy when he did this to me 10 years ago. And there's nothing to discuss GET OUT MY FUCKING HOUSE LIKE I SAID BEFORE" he says. Opening the door shook her head "Forget this I'm out of here I hope you get everything you deserve and then some for betraying me"Michael said. Going to leave when Carly stopped him.
"No because I love the both of you this is not happening after everything we've been through" Carly says. "Like I said GET OUT OF MY HOUSE I HAVE THINGS TO DO you can see yourselves out" Morgan replies trying to go up the stairs when his father grabs him stopping. Making Morgan look at him with a glare then down at his hand before pulling away as Carly kept Michael where he was.
