His Solace

Ch. 28 Heated Discussion

Kori POV
Valentine's Day

"Ok class time to hand out your Valentine's Day cards" Mrs.  Moore announced

One by one each student handed out their Valentine's Day cards and candy. As cute as it was I couldn't even enjoy myself because my period came on early and my cramps were worse than usual.

That's one thing about hanging out with a group of women. Our cycles always synched I just know one of their asses threw my period off.

I watched as Aniyah hesitantly walked to my desk holding a small gift bag.

"Happy Valentine's Day Miss. Simmons this ones from me and my daddy"

"Awww thank you Aniyah happy valentines day to you too" I smiled and she quickly walked over to her new group of friends.

Aniyah had become quite the social butterfly over the last few weeks. She went from hardly speaking or engaging with students to always raising her hand and assisting her classmates with their work.

Digging through the gift bag I pulled out a best teacher coffee mug, some chocolates, and the actual Valentine's Day card.

Awww this is so thoughtful

My eyes widened at the $200 Starbucks gift card that fell out.

To Miss Simmons: Thank you for helping my baby girl. Aniyah talks about how much she enjoys school all day long especially how much she likes her new friends and teachers. Enjoy your next few Starbucks orders on me Niyah said it's your favorite

From: Adrian & Aniyah

Since the kids were occupying each other and Mrs. Moore was conversing with the teacher next door I pulled my phone out shooting Adrian a text.

: omg Adrian thank you 🥹🫶🏾I loved the card and yes Aniyah knows me well I love me a good churro Frappuccino

Adrian👨‍👧: Anytime and I'll try to remember that for next time 😉

I smiled to myself as I re-read the card and text I'm only a teachers assistant but the appreciation some of the parents show me never goes unnoticed. The smallest gesture could really make my day it felt good to be recognized by both the students and their guardians.

"Miss. Simmons somebody's at the door" Elijah one of my rowdier students said forcing me to eye the door.

A huge grin graced my face when I seen Sinn walking in with Saints stroller. He held a huge box of roses and gift bag in his free hand.

"Ouuu my favorite guys came to see me!" I squealed in excitement almost forgetting where I was standing on my tippy toes for a kiss which Sinn denied causing me to frown.

"So I can't get a kiss?"

"We wanted to be the first ones to give you a gift but I see someone beat me to it and hell nah you can't get a kiss in front of all these kids" he chuckled eying the items on my desk and nodding towards the unusually quiet student.

"Yeah you right one of the parents got me a few things but hiiiieee papa" I spoke to Saint as he eyed his new surroundings.

"Miss. Simmons you didn't tell us you had a baby!" Jalani shouted aloud with her hands on her chest.

"Or a husband" Elijah co-signed with his arms crossed over his chest while Sinn laughed I'm convinced he loves seeing me flustered.

"Class this is my bo- Her Husband y'all can call me Mr. Sinn and this is our son Saint"
