WARNING! THERE ARE CUSS WORDS IN THIS CHAPTER
"I see that you brought a cat with you Miss Pennantia?" Mr. Wilson said with an annoyed tone in his voice.
"Yes Mr. Wilson I had to bring him cuz there was an emergency" I said to him in response. Mr Wilson just shrugged and asked us to open our books and discuss about mental disorders.
After an hour or so in that boring class I was called on by Vanessa, the so called "school beauty".
"Hey loser come to the usual place where we hang out after school" she said in an intimidating tone.
I didn't answer her but the whole class was just staring at me like I was some crazy person. After classes I head to the back of the school and Vanessa and 2 of her friends were already waiting. "Hey dipsh*t hand me your money" she said while pushing me against the wall.
I refused to give my money just by looking at her and staying silent, but she didn't take that very well so she started to cuss at me. "You know what's gonna happen if you don't give me your money right? I guess good beating is gonna kick you back to your senses huh?" she said threatening me.
I answered back, "Well I'm done with you so stay the f*ck away from me" that was me trying make her back off. One of Vanessa's friend tried too slap me in the face but I just stopped her arm and she yanked her arm away from my hands. They were pissed off when I did that so all of them came at me at once, the three of them tried to punch me but I just silently dodged their small fists and trip them on their legs.
They all tripped before me and I was the only one standing. "So? You gonna fight me or not?" I said in a calm but overpowering tone.
"I'll be back Silva!!!" Vanessa told me that with tears in her eyes and walking away from me. I just chuckled to myself and checked on Midnight, Midnight was fine he was doing good. I grab my phone in my pocket to check the time, it was getting dark, I checked the time and it was 5:30 pm. It was time to go home.
I put Midnight in my basket and rode the bike back to my house too see that the lights were on. "Hm, thats odd? I always cook dinner before mom comes home. Did she get home before me?" that was me wondering to myself.
I parked my bike outside and carried Midnight with me inside, I was shocked too see mom having dinner with a man I've never met before. "Mom? Who's this?" I spoke to her in a confused voice.
"I'll explain it to you later, come and join us for dinner but first whose cat is that"
"This is Midnight I stumbled across him when I was going to school. He was hungry and weak so I took him with me. Can I keep him? You know I've always wanted a cat" I tried begging my mom.
"Okay you can keep him, just take good care of him" my mom said in response. I just smiled at her and went upstairs to put my bag and Midnight in my room. I changed into a simple oversized black hoodie, and leggings. I immediately went downstairs cuz I was starving, I pulled the chair and immediately started eating. Mom was happily chatting with this man whom I don't even know and I was just watching shows on the tv.
"So Sil I wanted to introduce you to this man" my mom said but I sensed a bit of fear and nervousness in her voice.
"This is Charles. My uh...." she said hesitating
"Your what mom?" I said in confusion
"This is my boyfriend"
"What?"
"Sil he's my boyfriend and he's gonna live with us from now on. You're gonna love hi-"
"WHAT?! What about dad?! I can't just accept a new random man to be my new father?! NO! I don't want this!" tears were suddenly building up in my eyes.
"Yes but sweetie you're gonna learn how to love Charles I promi-" I cut my mom off
"NO MOM! No one can ever replace dad! I'd rather die than keep up with this sh*t" that was the first time that I ever said that to my mom. I hated myself at this point.
My mom slapped me when I said that. She stood there, frozen, shocked at what she has done. "I'm done here" I said as I went upstairs grabbed Midnight and my phone, went outside to ride my bike towards my secret place.
My mom didn't even try too stop me from leaving. I guess she knew that I needed space for a moment. I don't think I can accept another dad in my life, I don't wanna replace my father and he will be my only father in this world.
After a few minutes I finally arrived at my secret place. I grabbed my guitar, layed in the grass and I put Midnight beside me. I looked at the night sky while listening to the crickets and the wind howling in the background.
I started singing my heart away and tears fell down to my warm cheeks. I hate myself. My mom was very happy when she was talking with Charles, I've never seen her smile like that ever since dad passed away, why can't I be just happy for her? I hate this.
I stopped playing and just hugged Midnight while the stars looked at me when I shedded my tears.
"I miss you dad" I said out loud. I started sobbing even more and hugged Midnight even tighter than ever. I sobbed a lot to the point where I slept alone in my secret place with Midnight.
I woke up with the sun beating down on my face and my eyes were puffy, I could tell since my eyes couldn't open properly. When I looked at Midnight AND THERE WAS A BUTT NAKED MAN SLEEPING BESIDE ME!
I was just flabbergasted by this.
