Chapter One

––––––––

The convertible top was down on Jan Marie’s white BMW as she cruised along California’s scenic coastal route, as they now were just leaving the northern most limits of Malibu Beach. Jan Marie, plus her life partner Justin, were taking a trip up to visit her former friend from college, Ashley, who currently was living somewhere up near Carmel, at Big Sur. Jan’s surfer boyfriend Justin was playing a game on his iPhone plus keenly checking out the, well formed, peaking swells, over on his left side and occasionally chatting with his gorgeous life mate...

Jan Marie was now seven months pregnant and visibly showing. She had never in a million years planned on having a child before, but that was until she had met her soul mate . . . thirty-two year old Justin Baker, who likewise had always thought along those same lines...

Jan interrupted her boyfriend’s concentration while saying, If you like dear I can pull over to let you out, so you can go play around in the water for awhile.

Whoa, thanks babe but not here with this beach break, but maybe just up ahead at County Line, near Santa Barbara. Justin replied.

Sure as long as we can stop for lunch at that famous split pea soup restaurant, not much further up ahead and seriously Justin, can’t you stay out of the water for just one day! My God, you’re going to be a father soon Mr. Baker, so hasn’t that fact sunken into that soggy brain of yours yet? She queried him sternly.

For sure dear and yeah well, I’m already envisioning my young son to be the best pro surfer on the world circuit! Justin replied humbly yet proudly.

Well, just what makes you so sure that our baby’s gender is indeed a boy? Jan Marie inquired while she herself retained full gender knowledge from a previous ultra sound and that examination’s results. Justin always had told her that it should be a surprise for the father so he did not want to have any pre-birth information on that rather sensitive subject...

Jan Marie was her daddy’s little girl, who he always spoiled with expensive gifts. She was afraid to introduce new boyfriends to him in the past because if for some reason Sonny might have thought they were treating her badly, then they would surely magically disappear forever . . . and without a trace. Maybe because of the fact that she was an only child, her father would constantly shower her with materialistic offerings, along with his possessive love for his daughter. Justin on the other hand was a free spirited soul and unlike his counterpart was a first year dropout from San Diego Community College. His only care in life before meeting Jan Marie, was finding the perfect wave. Justin and his younger brother Bradley, made decent money, but that was when they had work. For them being construction orientated, it was not exactly a year round probability or a feasible possibility for them, because of the fact that they worked outside... They were still operating as small time contractors so it was imperative to handle as much of the work load between the two of them as possible, as to not have to hire additional labor which would greatly cut into their minimal margin of profit.

Jan Marie’s father Sonny was proud of his Italian heritage... He carried a strong resemblance to the middle aged version of actor Dean Martin, with whom they ironically both shared the same last name. Her well preserved mom was just a Northern European mix, which is obviously where she got her classic tall Nordic features. Jan Marie had blue eyes, naturally blonde hair unlike Justin’s sun bleached affair. She also was blessed with high cheek bones and long slender legs...

Jan Marie had done some modeling gigs years before, right after graduating high school, but Sonny wisely steered her away from going in that direction, mainly because he knew what could go on at some of those photo shoots. Her father was a proud man, especially of his old family values, plus of his Mafia family contacts back east that he retained and best of
