Kia's POV:

I was hiding in the downstairs closet as I watched my dad and some red head talking and drinking. She looked familiar. I think she was one of our neighbors a few houses down but I couldn't remember. I watched as she sat on my dad and he didn't try to move her away. I wish mommy was here but she apparently had to work late. That had been happening more lately but she tells me we need the money so I deal with it. I hear a weird noise and look up as my dad is unbuttoning this womans shirt as she was moving around on his lap, weird. I wanted to cover my eyes but I couldn't help but start to get angry. My dad was touching someone that wasn't my mommy and I knew she would be upset about it. She told me that when people love each other they kiss and do other things that only those two do with each other. So why is my daddy loving on this woman? Does he not my mommy anymore? What about me?
