Ring! Ring! Ring!
Who's calling me so early in the morning? Jesus! It's 5am.
"Hello" I answered my phone with a groggy voice.
"OH! SO YOU GROWN NOW!?" My Dad yelled through the phone.
Dammit! It's too early for this. The sun ain't even up yet.
"Huh?" I replied.
"So you moved? Where did you get money from?"
"Yes, and I saved."
"You lying bitch! Saved how? I knew your ass was fast! I hope that dude is worth turning your back on your family!"
"There's no dude. I'm by myself."
"You stay lying! Well fuck you then! You are not my daughter any more and stay your fast ass wherever the fuck you at!"
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Damn he hung up on me. So he's mad mad. Well that's not my problem anymore. He can think whatever he wants to think. Because it'll be a rainy day in hell before I let a dude think he's gonna take care of me so he can control me. Nope. No, thank you. I'm good. Plus it's not worth me getting beat on.
'Sorry mom. I hope he doesn't take his anger out on you. He thinks I'm with a guy but I'm not. But it's whatever. I'm safe now… I want you to be safe too… I love you' I texted my mom. Because knowing him he probably done woke her up with this madness.
I guess since I'm up I might as well post today's episode a little early. I usually post everything Wednesday and Friday at 8am. I post a bonus episode in our Patreon on Wednesday but I didn't have to this week since we're on vacation.
I can't believe he waited three days before calling me. I'm just happy he doesn't care where I'm at. Even if he thinks I'm some type of hoe, it beats him chasing after me.

I guess I better see if she has any last minute appointment. After talking to Daddy this morning, I'm ready to let go of the past. I just want a new everything. New Poppy here I come!
