As the sun peeked from behind the clouds to stream in the room. Hondo woke up to get ready for work. Minutes after that he is in the kitchen making breakfast and our drinks. Coffee is smelling up the whole apartment. I followed him that morning.
" Good morning Baby girl," he told me.
I replied to him " Morning Hondo."
Our apartments and house are now alive and noisy. I put together our lunches in bags with our names on it. My hot chocolate is mixed and handed to me. This is copied by the other teammates. Within minutes our meal is ready to eat.
Breakfast is promptly served at 7:45 am. Everyone dished out our food to eat. The team sat in our assigned seats at the tables. We ate together like one big happy family, Soon after eating we put all the dirty dishes in our sinks.
The team and I grabbed belongings that morning. Later on, we locked the front door. All of us went to our cars and truck. Our apartments and house are now left vacant. We head to our missions that morning.
Hondo pulls into his spot at work. Both of us went inside the building together. I handed it to Hondo. Seconds later I put the lunches in our kitchen. He went into the locked room to change.
Minutes after that I went upstairs to hang out with Dr. Wendy.
"Hey T," our Doctor greeted.
" Hi Dr. Wendy," I replied.
I sat down on her couch. We chatted about life. Of course, I enjoyed my time with her.
The team arrives one by one. Of course, they also head to get changed. Peggy already sensed trouble somehow. We have some news for you guys. Marcos suddenly found himself an new interest. Don't tell me this has to do with your sister. Yes it does Hondo.
"Good morning Dreamer," Captain America greeted.
" Morning Captain America and Peanut gallery," I replied to them.
They gave me kisses on my cheek.
My family heads to the briefing room that morning. I am in my corner listening to everything. Assignments are handed out. Seconds later I see if Captain needs some help. Your help is always welcome T.
Black Betty is nice and full. The guys were all in the regular places. Conversations are going on throughout the truck. Jokes are cracked and laughter is loud. Minutes after that Luca pulls up in front of their call.
Our boss is running things from the base. They pulled into the mission. Minutes after that they are in formation. Three went right and the rest head left. All criminals are in custody.
Black Betty is now full of tired cops. On the way back to headquarters they picked up the last conversation .It is parked in front of the building. All the showers are taken and debrief is conversed. They rushed me with hugs.
Lunch time is promptly at 12:00 California time. Everyone grab our lunches and sat down at the table. Of course, we talked to each other. We ate together like one big happy family. After eating we put all our trash in the bin.
The guys were else where in the building. Peggy stays in the kitchen with me. Your brother is stressing about this Marcos thing. They are the ones that should be telling about this development and not you. Johnny is not going to take this good. His older brother Tony was a gang banger. Eventually he will get around to calling him.
I went to find Captain America. We are now in our conference room. Peggy just told me. I know Dreamer. Luca is going to get this same conversation. He can't hide behind Black Betty.
"Dominque don't play with me," I told him.
"This makes me feel like a child," My brother replied.
Please don't give me ice T. You're in trouble man. She is probably going to take Duke from you. Both of you have to make up for it really big.
Everyone grabs their belongings. We exchanged our greetings to each other. Hybrid Mike are the only ones not to say anything. All of us talked for five minutes. The headquarters and parking lot is a ghost town now.
Hondo drove us home that afternoon. We put the bags by our door. I went to take a quick bath to change. Minutes after that Hondo is busy in our kitchen cooking our dinner at the stove. I set our kitchen table.
Dinner is promptly served at 6:00 pm California time. Everyone dished out our food to eat. Our usual drinks are juice for the kids and a round of beers for us. We ate together like one big happy family. After eating we put all the dirty dishes in our sinks.
We broke up into our usual boys vs girls groups. Our girls and my sisters cleared the tables. I wiped down every surface. The guys washes the dishes to refill it with the wet ones. Kitchens are now clean.
Family time continues in front of the tv. We shared our favorite tv shows with the group. I walked over to my room in order to change into my jammies and brush my teeth. Later on, I returned to our couch. I am nice and cozy.
"Goodnight Baby girl," daddy told me.
"Night Hondo," I replied to him with a kiss.
I started a new text message with my brothers.

Soon after that I put down my phone. My guitar is picked up for the first time since I switched. Within minutes it's back on the wall in my room. I have Pedro close to my chest. Counting sunglasses time begins now. I am now fast asleep.
Meanwhile with the team still watching tv. Laughter is dying down now. Our tv sets and family room lights are turned off. The team went to their own room. Everyone else joins me in dreamland that night.
