Chapter 91-- Damian Delilah Mallory: Changes
Date: April 2041
It's been one week now. There
Was no sign of the Black China
Men. The other Hakim family
Members decided to take residence
Closer to the foundational family.
Which was Greatgrand and
Carter Hakim Sr. Carter
Hakim Sr. addressed the family
of Damian's household. "Family Now,
Greatgrand had siblings as well. Mostly
Still living in Trinidad and Tobago.
And they had Offspring. That will
Be evident at the next family
Reunion." Damian interrupted
Saying, "Dad take a break I'll let
Them all know about the rest of
The changes concerning my
Household." Damian began,
"Yeah we're going to be one big
Extended happy sometimes
Disagreeable family. Let's get
Busy." Our brother Sidney and
His wife Saderi with their 4 kids
will reside here
With me and my family."
"Jackson and Julius will live
Together In a 2 level mansion
Boasting 10 bedrooms and 4 and
A half bathrooms." He turned to
CJ and said, "CJ I think Damali
Wants to live With us too. Is that
Alright With you?" CJ said, "What
Ever you decide is alright by me."
"And we won't be far from
Each other." And brothers and
Sisters- in- Law we have decided
To send all of our children to
One main school. I hope we are
All in agreement with that."
The kids made jovial noises
To confirm their unanimous
Agreement. Adonis excitedly
Expressed his gratitude, "Oh I'm
Looking forward to being your
Neighbor brother. So I'll take my family
And familiarize myself with my
New....in my new space." He
Embraced Damian. And gathered
His family at the entrance.
Damali embraced CJ, his father
And said goodbye. CJ gave his
Advice. And made his exit. Now
There were 18 children and 3
Parents. Dolly addressed
The happy teenagers first.
"Now, kids there will be 6 more
Family members moving in.
By the end of the week. 4 kids
2 adults. And of course you will
Treat everybody with respect."
You hear me? That means....NO!
profanity DAMALI!! Damali came
To attention right away.
"You don't want to get on my bad
Side baby." "I will be on my best
Behavior auntie." Damali had
Sworn his solemn oath. Molly
Said, "So Dolly sis we have to
Give our new child his own
Space right?" Dolly said, "Yeah,
We'll do that unless he and DJ
Want to room together." DJ
asked what do you want Damali?"
Damali said, "I want to see it first."
DJ and the mothers showed him
An empty room on the first floor.
Eventually he decided On a room
Already furnished with bunkbeds.
Molly said, "if you want we'll
Replace these with a larger bed.
Damali relaxed on the lower
Bunk and said, Yeah, auntie that
Sounds good. I'm a bit much for
This bed. Dolly replied, "I'll tell
What, you sleep in DJs room in
The spare bed for at least two
Nights then we'll get you a new
Bed. DJ said, "Alright! Come on
Damali you have to get Clean
Sheets though."
One week passed. Sidney and
Saderi his wife moved into
Damian's mansion with their
2 sons,¹ Holikiah age 12 and
Benawi 10 and twin daughters
Myselah and Senadah age 13.
Then Dolly reminded, "Alright,
Family we will need to assign
Sleeping areas. First the girls
Will sleep with Desharah. The
Two boys can room with
Amadeus on Bunkbeds.
On the same day
Nice April early afternoon they
Threw a barbecue party for the
Twins Damian Justin and
Damian Jordan.
Who will be 11 years old and
Damali who was turning 16.
Delilah mentioned to Mallory,
"I'm glad we are throwing this
Jam it gives the kids a chance
To get to know each other."
Desharah met one of Damali's
Younger cousins for the first
Time." Dolly went over to the
2 kids to inspect and certify the
Interactions of her preteen.
"Hey Deshi how are you getting
Along? Introduce me." Desharah
Began the introduction
reluctantly. "Ma this is my friend
Tanaka Hakim He's Damali aunts
Son." Tanaka this is my Mother
You can call her auntie Delilah."
Right ma?" Desharah wanted a
Quick reply. Dolly said, "Yeah, that's
Fine." Dolly asked, so... is Adonis
Your father? The kid replied,
Julius." she continued, "how
Old are you. Hun?" He squirmed
Then Uttered "I'm only thirteen
Auntie Delilah." And She lingered
As Desharah also began squirming.
And when will you be 14? The
Kid said, "oh not until next year
February." Dolly said, "okay Desharah
We'll speak later on." Desharah
Grew pensive about the future
Conversation. At that time she
Felt the unease of Jolan lurking
Nearby. Just as she was getting
Up from the bench she bumped
Into Damali her adopted unsavory
Brother. And what did he want?
"Ugh!" He pushed Her back to
The bench. You wanna introduce
Me Desharah? She said, "Nope."
He introduced himself. Then he
Said, "You can leave now." With
Authority from nowhere. Before
She was out of his view she
Turned and yelled, "Happy Birthday!
Damali!" He waved, "Thanks Deshi!"
And smiled as he sought his Cousins
DJ Ricky and Nyaf, Julius's son.
