Chapter Six

War

Parker arrives about an hour and a half after Mom and Dad with bags of takeout from the diner. My little sister is a hardass, but she’s loyal and loves her family more than anything. It’s been too long since I’ve seen her. Dad and I both told her not to come and visit me in prison. I didn’t want her to see me like that and didn’t want our enemies to get a look at her. She begrudgingly stayed away.

“Good to see you War.” She says giving me a big hug.

“You too, Parks.” When I release her, I pull her into the living room where Mom and Dad are talking to Magnolia and watching Walker crawl around the living room playing with his new toys.

“Magnolia, I’d like you to meet my sister, Parker.”

Magnolia’s eyes go wide as she stares at my sister in shock. “You’re War’s sister?”

“Sorry I didn’t tell you sooner. I had to keep an eye on you for my big bro.”

“You two know each other?” I ask staring between them.

Magnolia’s about to say something when Parker jumps in to explain.

“You were acting too happy when you got home from being stationed away for so long. You had said for years that you were going to move away and start a new life, but a few days after you got home you started talking about fixing this place up and how Jefferson County wasn’t the worst place to live. I figured you met someone, so I did a little digging and found out about Magnolia. I also found out who her dad was and figured she was trying to pump you for info.”

“That is not what happened!” Magnolia growls as she gets up and stands beside me.

“Easy baby girl let her finish,” I say wrapping my arm around her waist, so she doesn’t attack her future sister-in-law.

“I went to work at the diner to keep an eye on you. Make sure you weren’t using War for information. I hated you when we first met.”

Magnolia nods. “I know. I didn’t know why though.”

Parker shrugs. “You seemed too happy and lived in Lala land. Then I watched what happened to your smile when War was sent away. I was going to quit and leave you to suffer, but then I noticed your belly begin to grow. I stayed to see what happened and eventually I stopped hating you. In time I actually started to like you.”

“You knew the whole time I was pregnant, with your nephew and you never said a word?” Magnolia asks, fury all over her beautiful face.

“I’m sorry Magnolia. I wanted to tell you so badly, but I couldn’t.” Parker says.

“And why didn’t you tell us? Huh, miss priss?” Mom asks, walking up to stand beside Magnolia.

“Because I thought War was keeping her a secret for a reason. So I stayed the course and kept an eye on her until he was out. He could figure out who to tell after that.” She tells our mom.
