Chapter 6
Mia decided to come with me to the races in the evening. I was actually going to race tonight which may have been why she decided to come. She held Zach in her arms and seemed to be getting along with Neela and Kerri which I was relieved with. I was going to race Dom first and then I was going to race DK himself. I was so going to loose both races. Or maybe not.
Kerri walked over to me. "I hear you're pretty good with the wheel." She said.
"I might be why?" I asked.
"I'll race you after you race Dom and Sean." She replied.
"Hey baby." Twinkie told her.
Kerri rolled her eyes and walked back to Neela and Mia. Twinkie followed her. I hid a smile.
"You ready to face Dom brah?" Roman asked.
"You bet."
"Yeah and next he's going to say he was born ready. I'll steal beat your ass bro." Dom said.
"That's a possibility. I've never done drifting before." I said.
"That's just sad missing out man." Sean said.
Dom and I got into our cars. Mia looked like she didn't know who to cheer for. I beat Dom by about five seconds. He came out acting all mad and his fists raised.
"My boy is learning!" Dom crowd. The girls crowded around us but I found Mia and put my arms around her. She smiled. "Go da." Zach said. "It took ten minutes to teach him go. He liked dad alot." Mia replied. "That's my son." I said hugging him. He shied away from me and clung to Mia.
"Remind me though. I do owe you a punch later." Dom said.
I raced Sean next. He killed me. He was good. Very good.
"Trained by the best." Twinkie told us after as we all rode in Roman's car to get a bite to eat.
"Han." He said.
"Yeah Han was a cool guy he was the one who trained me." Dom said.
"Besides dad you mean?" Mia interjected.
"Yeah. He taught me things I never knew exsisted. Yo hold up. Brian is that Leon?" Dom asked me.
Mia looked up.
"Oh my god it is Leon." She ran up to him out of the car.
"Mia!" I got Zach out of the car seat and followed suit. Dom right behind me.
"I ought to knock you over the head for not telling me where you were." Dom said.
"Um well Letty's here too man. She's in the bathroom." Leon said flinching.
Letty walked out of the bathroom. She saw Dom and fled.
Dom stared at where she had been like she was a ghost.
"When did Letty get here?" Dom asked.
"Same time I left Miami to come here." Leon said coolly.
"How is she?" Dom asked.
"Well by the looks of things now shocked and scared man." Leon said.
"Why?" Dom demanded.
"She'll have to tell you herself man." Leon said.
"Will she even talk to me?" Dom wondered.
Leon shrugged. I looked at Mia who looked at me half smiling half confused.
Dom walked out as the others came in. "Where are you going?" Mia called after him. "Out." Dom snarled. Mia backed off she grabbed me.
"Let's just get something to eat." She said. By the time we had ordered Leon had met Twinkie and Roman. Leon explained where he knew us from.
"You were a cop." Twinkie said.
"Was being key word there." Mia defended me. "She let my brother go for his career and it sunk." Mia said.
"I guess. We don't like cops. " Twinkie said.
"Neither do I and he's not a cop." Roman growled.
"Honest I swear it you can call Bilkins and ask him." I said.
"Bilkins?" Twinkie asked.
"The FBI who wanted Brian's ass." Roman said.
"How come they let you go?" Twinkie demanded.
"Because I escaped part of their promise/plan plus helped them get Monica an agent out of trouble. She was in over her head." I said.
"Just like you were hey B? Couldn't give us up could you?" Leon asked.
"Nope." I said.
"Why?" Twinkie asked.
"Cause they're my family." I replied. We began to eat.
