chapter 3

Who the hell shout "hello!!, is anyone home" when entering her house after school.

okay, I have seen it in a horror movie but this is so weird

okay let me stop the pretense I'm kina freaking out here.

so I came back from school just now and met my house in a very weird state.

All lights off  and someone is sobbing inside my kitchen.

"mom" I called while moving closer to the door.

"holy shit" I cursed when I looked inside the kitchen and saw my mom on the floor but in a very bad state.

I ran towards her direction and carried her up only to find out that she has been drinking but why? I asked myself

"mom, are you okay?" I asked

shit! where is that question come from, she is definitely not okay.

what do I do now, I asked myself

I carried her to her room, filled her tub with water before placing her inside the bathtub.

when I turned to leave, she stopped me and told me to stay.

***Earlier that day***

Angelina's pov

Omg!!, when will these girl change I asked myself while entering Lucy's room and meeting it in a mess.

immediately I picked up her blouse which was lying helplessly on the floor, my phone rang.

"hello, Angelina Edwin speaking', I said

" hello to you too Angelina, it is john" the person on the other line said.

"how the hell did you get my number and what the hell do you want?", I asked

" easy dear" he said

"meet me at the restaurant opposite your house in 5minutes, don't waste my time and if you try anything funny, you will not like my next move" he said before the call ended from the other line.

"shit!!" I cursed.

" not now john, not now" I said to myself

**5 minutes later**

" you better tell me what the hell you want john" I shouted at him

"hey dear, slow down, you don't want to attract attention" he said while looking around.

"fine!!, what do you want" I asked calmly

"nothing much" he replied

" so I saw Lucy leave the house this morning and she has really grown so big since the last time I saw her" he said

"stay away from Lucy, this is between the both of us" I said

"okay fine but I want you to introduce me to her" he said

"why should I",  I asked

" don't play that game with me unless you want me to blow your cover" he said

" okay fine is that all you want?", I asked

"as her father", he replied

" what the hell!!!", I cursed

" are you crazy" I asked

"that girl is almost sixteen" I said

"and so what?, who cares" he replied

" after lying to her for almost sixteen years, you just want me to wake her up one morning and tell her that her father wants to meet her. do you hear how crazy that is?, where the hell is your conscience john" I said

" man has to do what he has to do to survive" he replied

"why are you doing this john?" I asked

" I have already answered that so deal or no deal" he said

" I am not doing this john" I said

" fine, that's cool but I hope you don't mind me telling her everything" he threatened

"fuck you john" I cursed

" I will take that as a deal" he said

"48 hours from now, I will be expecting your call, 48 hours to decide Angelina, just 48 hours girl. I hope you make good use of your time", he said before leaving the restaurant.
