Chapter 43
Dominic began to think about what they would do to help Letty's sister. How would he go after Johnny? He needed his best friend Vince to help him out. Unfortunately they didn't know were Vince was at. He paced around his room thinking. He felt sad about the child that had been lost. He sat down on the bed. He could hear someone walking towards his room, the door opened and Letty walked in.
"What are you doing?" she asked with a smile. "Nothing much. Why?" he smiled back at her putting his arms around her waist and resting the side of his head on her stomach. "We need to go to the store and buy food because there is nothing in the fridge." He looked up at her with a confused look. "But there is food. I went to the store the other day." She laughed, "Oh you really think that all the food that you bought would last for a long time. Remember now we have two new people living here and well they eat a lot." "So do you." he mumbled. She slapped the back of his head and moved away from him. "Very funny Toretto!" he got up and followed her out into the hallway. "Baby I was just playing." " You're sleeping on the couch tonight." she walked down the stairs. "Aww baby girl you know I love ya. Come on you also know you can't sleep without me." he smirked. "You basically called me fat." he wrapped his big arms around her while she fought to get out of his grip. "I'm sorry baby I didn't mean it that way." he kissed the top of her head and let go of her.
Jesse and Leon where in the living room watching TV when the phone rang. They looked at each other Jesse shrugged his shoulders and went to pick it up.
"Hello?" he questioned into the phone, while Dom walked in. "Who is this?" a ruff voice came from the other end. "Who are you? You're the one calling here?" Jesse nervously fiddled with the cord of the phone. "Is Dominic there?" he growled out. Jesse handed the phone to Dominic, "For you" and walked away.
"Hello?" Dominic finally asked wondering who could be calling. "Hey it's me Vince." A big smile spread across Dom's face. "Hey brotha. How are you? Where are you?" Vince laughed into the phone, at all the questions. "I'm still at military school but I get out next week. I heard that you where out, so I called. I was wondering if you could come pick me up?" "Yeah I'll be there. I need you here, we've got problems with Johnny Tran I don't have much time, so I don't think that I'll be able to wait for you." Vince was stunned to hear this. "What happened man?" "Something to do with Letty and her sister." "So how's the baby?" Dominic frowned at the question. "She lost the baby. Long story I'll tell you later." There was a moment of silence. "Sorry brotha." "It's okay. So I guess I'll see you next week." "Yeah" they said their goodbyes and hung up the phone.
Letty walked into the living room and looked at Dom. "Who was that?" Dom looked at her touching the back of his neck. "Vince. He gets out next week." Letty smiled happy that her friend was coming home. "Come on lets go to the store." he motioned for the boys to follow. They all got in the car and left.
Dominic grabbed a shopping car and the first aisle he headed to was the beer aisle. "That's nice we need food and you head for the beer." Letty teased. "I got to have my beer and you know your going to be drinking too, so I don't think you should be complaining." he teased back she stuck out her tongue at him. "You better put your tongue back in your mouth because I might bite it off." Dom teased her some more, she laughed. "Promise?" she asked with a childlike voice, he laughed at her and kissed her lips softly. Jesse and Leon found them and put about 10 bags of chips in the shopping car. "Man guess how much they cost." Leon said happily. "How much?" Letty asked. "10 bags for 10 dollars." Dominic looked at them, "So go get 10 more." the boys ran off and Letty shook her head slowly.
When they got back home Letty went to go pick up a box that was at the front door. She took it inside and opened it. Inside there was a head of a cow. She quickly pushed it and yelled, "Dominic get over here!" Dominic, Jesse, and Leon all ran into the dinning room. "What!?" They all asked in unison. "Look." she pointed to the box. They all took a peek and moved away. Jesse saw a note and grabbed it.
Dominic
This is just a welcome back present from me. Take good care of that skank of yours, wouldn't want anyone to just take her from you.
Your friend.
Jesse read the note aloud. All four where fuming and wondering who it was.
