We were all invited to Noel's house for a movie premier the other day. I could tell that Giovanni was a million miles away in thought. When the premier was over Giovanni shared with the whole family that he just found out that Nina had passed away, While he had moved on with his life it appeared that Nina had not been forthcoming in telling him that she had a daughter with him. Aicha was clearly upset, but I was amazed at her composure and and compassion for her husband.
Nina was much older than Giovanni at the time of their relationship, much older than she had led on. She gave birth to a beautiful little girl named Brie and shortly after aged up. A few days after Aicha gave birth to their daughter Karly; Giovanni received a phone call from child services.
"Is this Mr. Giovanni Morningstar?" they asked. "Yes, this is he," my son responded. "Sir we have some very important matters to discuss regarding the late Nina Caliente and your daughter Brie." "I will be down in an hour," Giovanni said as he hung up the phone.
At the Child services center Giovanni learned that he had a little girl that had biologically identified as his. They were understanding and explained that Nina had exhausted herself to the point of death and as her elderly limbs gave out she drowned at the condo they were living at. They explained that they were surprised Nina had not made it well known that he had a daughter, as she habitually had children with random men and would pursue them for child support, never working more than the bare minimum hours a week to claim benefits. They were now reuniting each child with their biological fathers and wanted to give him time before they brought her to him.
Aicha went into a fit of tears and ran outside. Akira and Zoey followed to help console her.
"I just think it is terrible that, that woman would just have a child with a man to get money" I am hardly angry about having a step daughter, but I am heartbroken that he never knew about his daughter. He is such a good man, maybe a bit gloomy at times, but he is a good man.
