EVEN after the big fight that occurred at the house,Joey never ceased from going there to visit Rachel's room.
"Hmph hmph!" Chloe formed coughing to gain Joey's attention.
"Chloe..." Joey said hurriedly cleaning her tears.
"It's okay. I understand" Chloe stepped closer to her.
"You do?" Joey asked and Chloe nodded. "I'm sorry Chloe. It just happened to be. It's nobody's fault" she hugged Chloe.
"It's dad's fault" Chloe spat out. She saw the shock in Joey's face and continued; "yes. I know everything Joey. He killed Rachel. I'm sorry for not being there for you when you needed me, your little sister the most" she took Joey's arms and placed them on hers.
"No. You're not supposed to know this. I'm sorry Chloe" Joey kneeled, cupping Chloe's face.
Chloe's eyes became watery as she said;"Well I'm 11 going to 12,I supposed to know earlier on"
"No, you're too..."
"What? Too small to know? Well that's why I didn't know you were you. You see,if I'd known the truth a long time ago,I'd have been there for you. I'd have supported you,you see?" She said.
"What do you mean by I didn't know you were you?" Joey asked leaning closer.
"I...I...I"she tried to stop herself from crying. "... taught you were my dead sister" she burst out in tears. "All because of dad,I taught you were a ghost" she cried.
"Oh Chloe!" Joey exhaled. "Still you shouldn't have known".
"Why? I'm happy I know" Chloe said and wiped away Joey's tears as Joey did hers. Joey smiled at her. "Oh! By the way dad's calling you" she remembered why she came in the first place.
"Calling me?" Joey stood up.
"I don't really know why. But he said I should call you" she said shrugging.
"Okay" Joey let out as Chloe left her behind.
Joey didn't bother herself with why Davidson was calling her,she wasn't answering his call. "Joey!" Just as soon as she finished that taught, Davidson barked at her.
"I recall I sent for ya" he said coming in.
Joey was highly irritated by his sight. Was this the man that bore her? She paled.
"I can see ya playing dumb uhn?" He asked and receiving no reply, he continued; "For Christ sake Joey! It's been 15 years since it happened! Good God! 15 years!" He roared.
"Aren't you ashamed of yourself Davidson?" Joey spat out hand crossed.
"I see ya still wanna play the game Joey uhn?" He grinned.
"Play what game Dave? Play what game? Who do you think you're deceiving? You stay there behaving as if you feel no pity or shame for yourself! Between me and you, who is really playing a game?!" She said aloud.
"Ya even more pretty when y'all vexed up" he said.
"Oh,don't you dare!" She retorted. "And why where you asking for me?" She snapped in.
"I was gonna tell ya, ya should stop comin' to mi home" he said.
"Your house? You call this your house?" Joey scoffed.
"Yes of course"
"This is family house and I have all rights to come whenever I wanna" she declared.
"Aw you've loosed that rights Joey, you've looooonged lost that rights since the day you ran away from your home" he spat out.
"Oh really?!" She snapped in.
"Uhn uhn. To that Paschal of a boy. I'm damn sure he's playing it well on ya" he raised an eyebrow.
"Playing?" She read his looks and it felt like her heart stopped beating as she saw that look in his eyes.
The look she saw 15 years ago.
"Oh,you dog! You monster! Fool! Aren't you ashamed of yourself?!" She screamed, feeling the pains return to her again.
Davidson didn't mind,he continued; "You've done it with him uhn? And I can bet a penny he gave it to ya smooooth and steady like never before... Get out Joey!" He yelled. Joey couldn't believe her father.
"You know what? Yes. He gave it to me smooth and steady. We've made out countless times. Yes! Yesterday we made love and guess what? It was awesome. It wasn't brutal, forceful,scary and bloody!" She said in conclusion.
"No one's here Joey" he stepped forward, towards her "we can do it" he smirked "nice and steady as you said. I can put you in the mood" he stood. "Wilson is washing the cars parked outside with loud music and noisy running water,he won't hear a sound. Your mum is at the market, young Chloe is not even in this vicinity and Max visited his friend. It will be nice and steady little J. Only me and you" he grinned.
Joey was utterly ashamed of this man that stood at her front. Raising forward, she gave him a hot slap on his cheek and taking her hand bag,ran for the door.
He quickly grabbed her leg as he fell on the floor trying to get a grip of her but his hands slid and it was too late.
"I don't want to hear a word of this!" He said aloud to running Joey.
Chloe saw her rush out and was puzzled. Looking inside the entrance,she spotted Davidson. "What have you done?" She whispered.
