Trevon was still doing porn while finding a balance in his life around being a father and his expanding career. He took things slowly, putting nothing before his kids. To be the man he wanted to be, he had to be willing to face his faults. He understood his fears in life, for no man or woman stood without fear. He understood the pain of having missed out on fifteen years of his life behind bars. Facing it, he made the choice to put it in his past. With each new day it was a challenge and yet a gift for Trevon.
As for dealing with his heart, he was able to forgive LaToria for her misguided actions without blame or fault. The two met halfway on their trip back to commitment. Nothing in Trevon’s sight would push him from his course in life.
In private he had a long mature talk with Tahkiyah to speak on the secret they shared. They both understood how lust proved to be their only link. What happened between them, they promised each other to take it to their grave. Trevon also promised that he would treat LaToria right and gladly welcome Tahkiyah as his mother-in-law when that day came. He found his balance by being himself and not what others expected him to be.
“Smooch!” LaToria shouted from the kitchen. “The baby is crying again.”
Trevon was already making his way to the bedroom with Rex on his heels to check on the little ones. By the tone of the high-pitched cry, he knew it was his daughter. Reaching the crib in the bedroom, the crying stopped once his daughter saw him. She was spoiled and hated being alone. Her brother was wide awake as well, sharing the crib with his sister. Seeing his kids gave Trevon a purpose to live. A reason to be something that was taken for granted by many men, a father.
