It took Tara a week to actually consider letting the boys see Gemma or even letting Gemma see them for that matter, but then she realized it wasn't about her and Jax. It wasn't even about Gemma for that matter, it was about her sons and she's only doing this for them. Tara pulled right in front of Nero's farm. After Tara stopped the engine and pulled the keys out. She inhaled and exhaled deeply as she unbuckles her seat belt and got out of the car.

Nero opened the door as soon as he heard a knock." Hey, Tara. Come on in." He says with a nod as he moved to the side and let's her." She's in the room." Nero says as he closed the door behind him.

" Where's Jax?"

" He um, had club business to handle in Stockton. How's she doing?"

" Not good, She's getting weaker, I think it's good that you're letting see the boys." Nero responded with a small grin.

" Yeah, well I am doing this for them, not for her." Tara responded in a hard tone.

" Right, well like I said. She's in the back room." Nero responded as he pointed towards the hallway and started to lead them towards their room. When he got to the door, he opened the door and saw Gemma laying against the headboard.

" Hey, Mama, you got some visitors." Nero says as he moved to the side, revealing Tara and the boys as they stand a few feet away from the doorway.

" My babies." Gemma says in one breath as her smile got bigger as she completed ignored Tara, which Tara didn't take too personally since once again, this wasn't about them or their issues..

" You two women, gonna be okay here?" Nero asked as he looked back and forth between them as he started to wonder if he should stay or leave them alone.

" Yeah, we will be fine." Tara says as she gave him a short nod.

" Alright, I will give you girls a minute alone." Nero says as he walked out of the room and closed the door behind them. He then walked away from the door and headed towards the kitchen and got some coffee.

" Abel, Thomas. Come see grandma." Gemma says as she reaches for them. Tara reluctantly let's her babies go. When Gemma got them in her arms, she hugs them both as she gave them kisses all over their faces.

Gemma then looks up at Tara." Does Jax know you're here?"

" He knows." Tara responded as she sat down in one of the chairs.

" And he actually let you come alone?" Gemma asked surprised as she never thought her son would let his wife go anywhere without him, especially just to see her.

" He had other things going on with the club right now, So I guess the rumors are true. Your really are dying." Tara says as she noticed Gemma did look weak and not the same old Gemma.

" What? Did you actually think I would actually lie about something like that?"

" Honestly? Yeah, I did. I mean I know you Gemma, you will do anything and everything in your power to get to my family again. You can be very manipulative." Tara says bluntly.

" Well, I don't expect you to believe me Tara, but I am dying and I really don't have a lot of time on this earth."

" Yeah, I talked to your doctor last week. He says you're dying from four stage lung cancer and that you only have a few weeks to a month left." Tara responded with a sigh.

" So, you wanted to come by to confirm it?"

" Something like that, but to the let the boys see you one more time." Tara responded honestly." But don't think for a second that I did this for you Gemma, cause this isn't about you or me. It's about them and I'm doing this for them." Tara says watching Abel and Thomas.

" I wasn't thinking that, I knew you're only doing this for them. I also know this had to be hard for you to even consider bringing them, cause I know how much you hate me." Gemma says as she looks down at Thomas.

" It's not that I don't hate you Gemma, cause honestly I could never hate anyone. I just hate how you treat and manipulate people to get what you want. I also hate how you always had to butt into my and Jax's relationship, telling us how we should raise our sons. What's even more worse, I hate how you treated and lied to Jax his whole life." Tara says as she crossed her arms over her chest.

" I never fucking lied to Jax about anything, and I raised him like a mother should." Gemma hissed.

Tara scoffed as she shook her head." Believe what you want Gemma, but you always controlled Jax's life. You raised him into an outlaw and a killer. But I will never raise my sons that way, cause unlike you I will always give them choices on how they want to live their lives."

" Why are you telling me all this?"

" Because even in death I'm not going to let you control our lives. I'm also telling you this, because after this visit, I won't be bringing the boys back. This is the only visit you will have with them."

" What you gonna do about Wendy?"

" Absolutely nothing, there's nothing to do with her. Wendy has nothing to do with our family." Tara responded with a shrug.

" Don't you think, she deserves to know her son?"

Tara shook her head once more." No, I don't."

" Who's Wendy's son, Grandma?" Abel asked as he caught the last part of their conversation.

Gemma noticed that Tara cringed a little when Abel asked the question, so she had to come up with an answer." Just a little boy who's around your age." Gemma responded as she gives him a small smile.

" Hey baby, we need to get going, tell grandma goodbye." Tara says as she reaches for Thomas and picked him up.

" Bye Grandma." Abel says as he gave Gemma a hug and a kiss on her cheek.

" Bye baby." Gemma says as she returned the hug and the kiss." Thank you." She said softly as she let him go as she nods her head towards Tara.

" Bye Gemma." Tara says as she opened the door and took Abel's hand." Come on baby." Tara says as she walked out of the room and towards the front door.

" Well, considering she didn't kill you, I am assuming the conversation went good then." Nero says as he took a drink of his coffee.

" Yeah, everything went just fine. I gotta get the boys home. Take care Nero." Tara says as she nods her head and walked out of the house.


Walking out of his room after taking a quick shower at the clubhouse. Jax walked around the bar and grabbed a beer from the mini fridge. After he took a drink of his beer and set the bottle down on the bar, he grabs his burner and called Tara. He hasn't heard from her all day since she left to take the boys to see Gemma. He knew he should have went with her, but he had shit to deal with at Stockton.

" Hello? Jax sighs in relief as he heard his wife's beautiful voice at the end of the phone.

" Hey, babe. How did it go?"

" I will tell you when you get home Jax, where are you by the way?" Tara asked. She just got home with the boys about ten minutes ago when Jax called her. She thought of calling him as well but she just figured she'll wait until he got home.

"I am at the clubhouse, we just got back from Stockton. But I am about to get out of here and come home soon."

" Do they know about Gemma?"

" I haven't had the chance to tell them yet." All week Jax has been debating on if he should tell the guys about Gemma or not. He knows how much they love Gemma, so telling them that she's dying from cancer isn't gonna be that easy. So far the only people that knows, is Tara and Opie.

" Jax, I think you should tell the guys and soon."

" I know babe, and I will. But right now I just want to get home to you and our boys." Jax says as he finished his beer.

" Then come home babe, and we can figure this all out tonight."

" I will be there in about ten minutes. Love you babe."

" I love you too Jax. Don't take too long." Tara responded as she hung up.

Jax chuckled as he put his burner back into his pocket as he walked out of the clubhouse and nods his head towards Opie and the guys." I am gonna head home. Tara just got back with the boys."

" Did she take care of what she needed to take care of?" Bobby asked.

" Yeah, Everything went just fine. I will see you guys in the morning." Jax says with another nod as he walked away from them and got on his bike. He then speeds out of the lot and headed home.

" Is he doing okay?" Bobby asked as he looks over at Opie for a moment.

" Yeah, he's fine. Why you ask?" Opie asked with a shrug.

" Maybe because he's been kinda distant all week and with that shit today in Stockton, It was like his focus wasn't all there. It's like he had something on his mind."

Opie just shrugged his shoulders." I don't know what to say Bobby. But when he's ready to tell you and the guys what's going on. He will, but in the meantime just back off for now." Opie says as he got up and walked into the clubhouse.

Bobby brought his brows together as he looks over at Chibs." Something is going on with Jax and I don't like it. You need to talk to him."

" Aye, I will stop by his house tomorrow morning and see what's going on with him." Chibs says with a nod. If there's anyone who can get Jax to talk it's Chibs. Chibs knows Jax and he knows when there's something weighing on his mind.
