It was a 30 minute drive into town. The place was a warehouse With an excessive collection of All types of bikes. After Damian Chose his better bunch of bikes He was worried, saying, "Man I hope these bikes will all fit in The truck. Julius said, "Hey Damian no problem, if they Don't all fit we'll make a round Trip." So they made a round Trip. Returning the second Time for the last 7 bikes. Which were Damian's. Afterwards Damian found Himself home alone. "Hello." He spoke to the empty house. Went to the second level and Checked the children's rooms Then the nursery. Hid the Gifts under the staircase and Waited in the family room, Resting on the couch. Where Could they be? He wondered as He slipped into dreams. Waking a few Hours later Still no familiar noises in the Mansion. He went to the Kitchen to make a sandwich. There was a note on one of The refrigerators with lipstick on It saying, "We're on a picnic baby. Be Back soon. Love You Dolly and Molly." Then he heard Childrens' voices. A key turn The lock. Damian watched The door waiting for it to Reveal his 19 loved ones. Dolly appeared first then Everyone else pushing their Way through. Hi, baby you Were busy today, huh? Damian Smiled. Telling her, "check the big storage room At the back of the stairs." She and Molly went to check. There were gasps until the Children became curious They saw the bikes and Squealed and screamed. "Daddy Daddy Daddy" They ambushed him begging Him. "Can we ride now, can We ride today? Daddy Pleaseee?" Damian said, "Hakim! maintain Yourselves." "We ride Tomorrow!." Damian asked. "What's our motto, TALK TO ME!" They started the chant, "WE HAKIM HAKIM ANYTHING WE DO, WE DO TOGETHER. HAKIM HAKIM. Damian Junior said, what do we do?! Damian grabbed DJs Collar and said, "We DOMINATE! The young ones all cheered And chanted WE HAKIM HAKIM HAKIM WE DOMINATE. DJ said "We ride Tomorrow! We ride TOGETHER!" All the other kids Cheered. Meanwhile Desharah tended The seven with the mothers. They were 8 months old and Crawling. As the day wore on Everybody retired to their Rooms. 9 o'clock in the night Dolly and Molly were immersed In deep conversation. They Wanted to Open a beauty shop They were busy being Buoyant entrepreneurs. They Made a deal they would ask Damian for assistance. Dolly Returned to her room. Damian went to Molly. Lingering at the door for what Seemed like forever until Closing it. "Mallory how've you Been baby girl?" He said Waiting for her reply. She said "I've been ok." All the while he Was Stepping closer to her until he was In front her. He Started kissing her lips. She Felt a scream that would not Surface. He caressed her Cheek And said, "Don't be disturbed I'll come see you tomorrow." Then he walked out of the room. 'Tomorrow? A slow torcherous Pleasure. She was thinking She wouldn't live through it.' She slept with fits of beautiful Nightmares. The bicycle ride would be Destined for the future, unfortunately For the children.
