Page 26 of Paying for his Sins

“Ah I get it.” This new kid is going to cause a lot of problems, but there’s not much we can do about that.

“Jordan just turned eight and he’s already having girl troubles I thought I had more time before dealing with that.” Jasper says as he ran his fingers through his hair. They need to stop growing we are not ready for all this boy and girl troubles yet.

“Where is this place you thought of?” Finn asks.

“It’s the new place I bought for us to get away once in awhile and it has a lake and it’s beautiful Nikki will love it.” Kate kissed my cheek.

“Good work.”

“It’s not a success just yet.” I took out my phone and message Jake.

Daniel- Get the car ready

Jake- Yes sir where am I taking Jordan?

Daniel- I’ll let you know in a minute.

Jake- Ready when you are.

Jordan walks in with the basket in his hands.

“I’m ready.”

“Let’s go.” We walk outside and Jake was waiting. Jake is Jordan and Nikki’s driver and bodyguard.

“Hi Jake.” Jordan says with a smile.

“Hi Jordan where are we going to.” I showed him the address and he nods his head. It took two hours to get to the vacation house. Jordan looks around and his eyes widen.

“This place is huge and there’s a pool this place is awesome.”

“I’m glad you like, there’s also a lake a perfect place for a picnic.”

“Show me.” I took him to the back and he looked excited.

“This is going to work. Thank you uncle Daniel.”

“Happy to help. Set things up so we can go get Nikki.”

“I’m on it.” As we are heading back I saw Jordan eye twitch.

“You just need to convince her to come, but you need to do that face to face or it won’t work.”

“You’re right, go to the park Jake.”

“Yes sir.” When we got their I got out of the car and Jordan walked over to Nikki. Jordan reaches out his hand and she took it, thank you God.

“Jake take the kids back to the vacation house keep your distance but keep an eye on them.”

“Of course sir.”

“Hi Uncle Daniel are you coming with us?” Nikki asks.

“No sweetie I have something to take care of you have fun with Jordan. Jake will take you then bring you home afterwards.” She gives me a hug then they left. I hope everything goes well Jordan is like his father in a lot of ways he should be just fine.

As we arrive at the beach the kids are extremely excited Jordan is holding Leslie, Nikki is holding Justin as we set up everything. They start playing in the sand with big smiles on their faces. Having us all together with no work involved is great it’s nice to finally relax for once even Toby is playing nice with Ray. I sat next to the kids and help them make sandcastles. No matter how bad of a day I’m having these kids always put a smile on my face even when I’m having the worst possible day. Sonny grabs Leslie and takes her into the water I watch as the kids play in the water giggling and splashing around and it brings a smile to my face we need to do this more often. Ray sits next to me and puts his head on my shoulders.
