After hugs and kisses on the cheeks we finished breakfast making our way to the deck to continue our 3rd day on the ship. Tonight was suppose to be Chris and Selena’s night with the kids, but they changed with Adam and Michelle, because Lil Heath was still not having anything to do with his mother. As us younger adults were lounging around the swimming pool with the kids in the kiddie pool with Jack, Sierra, and Mandy. I looked around to catch a glance of a woman staring at Kaye.
She looked to be in her early 50‘s, 5‘7, 120 lbs, with long black hair her eyes looked to be as brown as Kaye’s. I looked at her face and for some reason she looked familiar. She looked away for a minute as if debating on something. She turned back to look at Kaye again, but this time stood up making her way over to my sister who was holding hands with Travis. The woman once made her way to Kaye standing in front of her. Travis and Kaye looked up at the woman.
“ May I help you ma’am?” Kaye asked as the woman nodded
“ You wouldn’t happen to be Kaye Robertson would you?” She asked with a look of hope
“ Yes I am Kaye Robertson, but how do you know me?” My sister asked as the woman took in a deep breathe to only let it out
“ I am Jacqueline Pierce I…I am your mother Kaye.” She says shocking Kaye to no extent
“ You…you can’t be. My….my mother died when I was a little girl.” Kaye says sitting up quickly
“ I know baby girl, but I had to fake my own death to get away from that monster you call a father. I had to get away so I could start fresh and do all I could to get you away from him, but I never could as your father would move when I got close to getting you and Trey. I am so sorry Kaye.” Jacqueline explains as Kaye stands up looking at the woman in front of her
“ Prove it, prove that you are my mother.” Kaye says as the woman lowers her left bikini top to show Kaye
“ When you were 6 years old you accidently scratched my left breast before getting out of the way of your fathers punch that he gave me. I was trying to get you to safety, but he caught up with us as I ran down the sidewalk. Kaye you were always protective of me. After that day I had enough. I am so sorry for leaving you.” Jacqueline says as Kaye has tears in her eyes
“ But dad said you left, and the police found your dead body….he even had the police reports?” Kaye says as Jacqueline nods
“ Yes, but I had a few friends that your father didn’t know about. I think you know their son though.” Jacqueline says as Kaye looks confused before her eyes go wide
“ No way you know GH0$T?” Kaye asks as I watch Jacqueline smile with a nod before my sister continued “ How did you find me?”
“ Through him as he thought since you changed for the good it was time for mother and daughter to get reacquainted, but if you feel you don’t want me back in your life I will understand. I just wanted you to know that your mother is still alive, and has missed you so much.” Jacqueline says with tears as Kaye cries
“ Oh god mom yes I want you back in my life, but how do we leave off from before? It’s been so long since I was a little girl?” Kaye asks as Jacqueline nods
“ Baby maybe we start with a hug then move on from there. Our mutual friend filled me in on everything and I hope your new family can understand why.” Jacqueline says as I see everyone smile
I watch the two hug accepting the other as Travis stands up. He stays quiet before Kaye breaks the hug. I watch as he extends his right hand.
“ Ma’am my name is Travis Thompson. I am your daughter’s boyfriend.” He says as she takes his hand
“ Nice to meet you Travis. So I take it your Maggie’s oldest son?” Jacqueline asks as he nods with wide eyes
“ Yes how did you know that?” He asks as she giggles
“ Again Kaye and my mutual friend.” She says turning around to look at me
“ And you must be Heath the young man my daughter decided to protect from my asshole of a ex.” Jacqueline asks as I stand up
“ Yes, so your Kaye’s mother?” I ask getting a nod
“ Yes and I know this looks bad and all, but I had to take this chance to get back in my daughter’s life.” She tells me as I nod
“ Actually this cruise was one of healing for my family. Even those that want a second chance as I was given. So how long are you on board?” I asked being curious
“ Just another day as I only had enough for the past 3 days.” She tells me as I get my cell phone out
“ What are you doing Baby brother?” Kaye asks as I give her a wink
“ Yes this is Heath Thompson….yes same one. Look I have a friend that would like to extend her vacation on the same cruise….her name is Jacqueline Pierce…..Yes that would be her. Could you put her on my list of family…..yes that is perfectly alright. Thank you have a nice day also.” I said hanging up seeing wide eyes before I continued “ What?”
“ Heath you didn’t have to do that.” Jacqueline says to me as I shake my head
“ Yes I did Ms. Pierce as your my sister’s mother. Look this family takes care of their own, and since you are Kaye’s mother that makes you OUR family to. So why don’t you both take the day getting to know each other as a mother and daughter.” I say as Kaye and Jacqueline embrace me with hugs
After they break their hugs to me I sit back down watching Kaye, Jacqueline, and Travis leave. Kaye made it clear that Travis was going with them to as why I have no clue. At that moment my ladies all come and flock to me sitting on my lap or on the end on the lounge chair with smiles.
“ What you just did was very nice baby.” Jasmine says as the others nod
“ Yes it was darling, but what made you do that?” Hannah asks as I chuckle
“ I thought of it as if my own mother did the same. I would hope she would come back in my life in which she did.” I answer as each of them smile
“ Well still that was very nice of you baby, and deserves a reward.” Diamond says looking around before sliding her right hand up my left shorts leg reaching for my cock
“ Diamond what are you doing?” I ask stunned and shocked as she gives me a wicked grin
“ Giving you a hand job. Ladies anyone watching us?” Diamond asks as they giggle
“ Yes we are why don’t you take it to your cabin, or go to the couples area.” Selena states as Chris laughs
“ Your right come on lovers we have a man to reward.” Diamond says letting go of my hardening dick
They get up helping me after. As we start for our room Karen gets out of the kiddie pool and comes over to her mother.
“ Where are you going mommy?” Our daughter asks as I chuckle
“ Your mommies are going to take daddy back to our room to spend some time together. You be a good girl ok sweetie.” Tiffany says giving our daughter a hug
“ Ok mommy, but remember we were going to get pedicures later.” Karen says as I start to laugh
“ I remember baby girl now go to Uncle Jack and your Aunts Sierra and Mandy.” Tiffany says as Karen giggles running back over to the kiddie pool
I shake my head as I am led to our room by four beautiful women.

Travis’s POV: Around 3 p.m. in the after noon
The family has been on the cruise for a couple days now. I had forgotten how much fun family vacations can be. Heath got the family awesome rooms. I’m saddened that I was a after thought, but know I only have myself to blame. Keisha, my first love and now ex step sister, talked to me while I guess Heath had gone back home to California to think. She told me why she left and what she had done. She made me see the damage I had done to Champ. I remember teaching him how to swim and ride a bike.
I chuckle remember him wiping out and me coaxing him back on..’Bubby you promise not to let go.'” I’ll never let you go Champ” Heath starts peddling as he picks up spend I let go. He’s riding a bike as mom, dad and Shellie come out to see Champ riding a bike like a big boy. He turns and doesn’t fall down. He looks to see me and realizes he’s doing it all on his own,’Bubby look at me I’m riding by myself. Now Shellie, you and me can all ride together.’ I feel arms around my shoulders and turn to see Shellie and her sweet smile as she kiss my cheek,’Thanks Buddy for teaching Heathie.’ I smile back,’Oh course a big brother is supposed to do these things.’ I cry as all the memories come back.
The thing that hurts the worst is thinking that if I had listened to Tyrone and thrown Lil Greg into the ocean I’d have killed my own nephew. I smile thinking that Heath has some good people around him. I think back to the second day of the trip and asking Heath to talk with me. He glares back and I tell him its brother stuff. He gets up but so do the other three.’This is brother stuff..not guy stuff. Sit down.’ It’s the one called Adam that looks at me with such malice that I take a step back,’You listen good….HE IS MY BROTHER.
Blood doesn’t mean shit. I’d die for him just as he would for me. FAMILY IS THOSE THAT CARE FOR YOU AND YOU FOR THEM.’ I try to talk to Heath just for him to sock me in the gut,’Back off Travis.’ The memory makes me cry as I wonder what my dad thought of his sons fighting. I make my way back to the room. Once in the bed I fade off to slumber and I’m about ten again and am walking down a hall full of monitors. About that time I see my dad, but his eyes are red and he talks with a voice that scares me.
“ TRAVIS MARSHALL THOMPSON SIT IN THAT CHAIR THIS INSTANT.” My dad tells as about that time a chair emerges from the floor
I shake my head in fear. Leather bands come from behind the chair and grab me bringing me to the chair and securing me.
“ YOU WILL WATCH THIS.” He tells me as about that time each monitor places a memory of Heath and someone in the family..mom,shellie,me,auntie el,aunt kiko, auntie verna,uncle mike,uncle rick, uncle nate, selena,tiff and chris
All are happy memories. Then videos start playing of Heath coming home and Shellie and I leaving, then the summer we had hooked Tyrone with mom and finally the Christmas we left him. I start to cry wondering what I had missed and caused Champ to miss. Then the video floats to a scene of Heath looking distressed. He looks about eighteen and in turmoil.
