Jason, Liam, and Benjamin were standing around, waiting around at school for Noah, and Jayden. Sure enough they came running up. They seemed to be excited, even Jayden who barely ever smiled, had a tiny smirk.

Noah ran straight up to Jason, of course, and put his hands on his shoulders.

"Jason! I have the best news!" He said. Noah gave him a huge smile.

"What happened?" Jason asked. The fact that Noah had such a big smile caused him to smile too.

"My mom's finally going to live with us!"

Noah, and Jayden hurried straight home. They didn't want to wait any longer to see their mom. Despite her being her mafia family's Hitman, they loved their mom to death. She hadn't lived with them since Noah was seven, so they were excited to finally have her home for good.

They burst through the front door. Literally. The door is gone now. Their mom was in the kitchen, looking through her purse. Their dad Anthony was sitting down at the table next to her. She looked up at her boys.

"You guys look happy." She said, trying to hide her own excitement.

They ran up and gave her a hug. They were so happy to have their mother back.

"By the way, how did you guys convince your dad to get a dog?" Jasmin said.

Randy was sitting down on the floor watching them hug.

"We guilt tripped him." Jayden whispered.

"Good boys."

They finally let go of her.

"So guys what do you wanna do?" Jasmin asked.

"Let's walk around the city." Noah's dad suggested. "It'll help you get to know the place."

"That's not a bad Idea. Sound good boys?"

They both nodded. Noah didn't even care that his father was going with them, he was just happy to be able to spend time with his mom.

They walked around the city, planning to look at the different stores and shops. They are currently in the shopping center, and of course Randy was with them. Master, who is this woman who smells like blood? Randy thought.

"She's my mom randy." Noah told him.

"You're talking to the dog?" Jasmin asked.

"Yeah he's a good listener. You should try it when our dad pisses you off."

"I'll try it then."

They stopped in a small "hippie" shop. There they sold tie-dye t-shirts, assorted scented candles, stuff for meditation, and pipes.

"Why the fuck are we in here?" Jayden asked.

Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

"Well, we're just looking so." Anthony said. There was a hint of nervousness in his voice. Jayden just walked away from him.

The lady who was behind the cash register walked up to Anthony. She had long orange fluffy hair that was being held back with a headband. She was wearing a pink crop top and blue jeans.

She put her index finger on Anthony's chest.

"Hey, I bet you've missed me, is that why you're here?" She gave him a seductive smile.

"Uh no," Anthony took her hand from his chest, "I'm here with my wife."

The lady turned to look at Jasmin. Jasmin wasn't paying any attention, and was currently looking at a t-shirt with noah.

She looked back at Anthony. You know the call me gesture? Well, that's what she did, then walked away.

Jasmin walked up to Anthony.

"Okay, I'm ready to go." She said, starting to walk out of the store.

They walked around a bit before going to the next store, which was a gardening supply store. Mrs. Flowers saw them and walked up to them.

"So hey boys, how are you?" She asked.

"We're fine, how about you?" Noah replied.

"so good!" Mrs. Flowers turned her eyes from Noah to his father, "so you know Anthony, you should come by and fertilize my bush again."

"Uh, I... " Anthony shuddered.

"So does that mean I'll see you later?" She giggled then she walked away.

Jasmin looked at her husband.

"What does she mean by that?"

"Well, I once went over to help her with her garden. She may be a flower, but she definitely can't garden." Anthony said.

Jasmin just shrugged, but her face was obviously a little distressed.

They walked around more. Noah was telling his mom about school, when suddenly an acorn fell on his head, causing his eyes to comically jut out from his skull. He looked up. It was that bastard squirrel, Devon.

Noah stopped for a second. Then turned to his mother.

"Excuse me mother while I kill this squirrel." Then he walked toward the tree and started climbing it. Jasmin just watched her son as he climbed.

Devon started to freak out.

"Ahhhhh! You can't come up here! Get the fuck away from me!" Devon screamed in fear.

"Too late rodent. I'm getting tired of your shit." He was almost to the branch Devon was on.

Once Noah reached him, he extended his arm to grab him. As Noah did this, Devon jumped off the tree and ran away.

"Damn." Noah said.

Noah climbed down from the tree. Him and his family continued to walk around.

Jasmin noticed the strange amount of women who were walking up to husband and saying weird things that almost sounded like innuendos to him. One of them was a can of bean soup. It made her worry.

******

After the long day they had just decided to go home.

Everyone else, except for Jasmin, had gone to sleep. She couldn't seem to get tired, so she sat in the kitchen and drank a cup of coffee.

Randy was sitting next to her. She looked at him and sighed.

"Do you think I made a mistake, Randy?" she asked him.

Randy wrote on his paper. Do you feel like you made a mistake? The paper said.

"I don't know. I mean, it's worth it for the kids but, Anthony..." Jasmin looked down. She didn't know what she could do. "He's not the same."

"Jasmin?" Anthony was walking down the stairs.

"Yeah? I'm just talking to the dog, I'll be up in a minute."

"Why does everyone in this family, except for me, talk to the dog?"

"He's a good listener."

"Alright?" He sat down next to his wife. "What do you think of the town?"

"It's nice, I actually like it better than our old town."

"Really? But don't your parents live there?"

"Oh not anymore. They're moving here in just a couple of days."

Anthony started to choke on seemingly nothing.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah yeah, I uh, I just didn't expect old Ivan and Valerie to want to move their organization."

"Usually they wouldn't, but they wanted to be close to me."

"Does your dad still hate me?"

"Yep. Of course he does."

"Great..."

"No need to be worried Anthony, it's not like your Slim Dick A. My dad doesn't hate anyone more than him."

Anthony just started nervously laughing. He didn't stop laughing until he passed out an hour later.
