Adora
The rest of the ride was silent. No music, no talk. Nothing. I had my window open with my right arm outside of the window thinking about how my dad always tells me not to do that. Because apparently a car is going to run next to us and cut my hand off. Like please i am not five anymore get over it , like i have.
Daniel had his eyes stuck on the road occasionally sending me a couple of glances to make sure i was okay.
Well i am not. And he knows it. But i know he is gonna do anything needed if there is a chance for me to be happy again.
With all the thoughts in my head I didn't even realize we had stopped and were outside of my house.
After some time of sitting in the car i break the silence.
"I don't wanna go in there"
"I know...but they are probably worried. You haven't answered any of their calls in the last 4 hours." Daniel says looking at me.
"Besides... You should talk to your dad.I know you don't want to, but you will have to at some point. Sooo... Just do it already."he continues
What i love about Daniel is that he always tells me the truth. No matter how bad it is he always tells me. And then...he helps me get over it, which eventually i do.
"What if he tells me something i don't want to hear?"i ask him concerned
"You know... In life you won't always hear what you want. And i know it sucks. But this is what life is supposed to be like.Let me give you an example.
He notices my annoyance in his stupid sarcastic comment and continues talking.
"All i am saying is that we are not gods. And of course bad things we can't control will happen to us. The important thing is to know how to deal with them... So instead of sitting here like an asshole talking with me why don't you try talking to your dad. Tell him how you feel.
Because I know you way too much to be aware of the fact that you didn't even give him a chance to talk. You just stormed off like a complete brat. Am i right princess or ...?''He asked and i just gave him an annoyed nod.
Sometimes i wanna hit him so bad for knowing me this much.
"Good... Now open the fucking door, talk to your dad and then just lock yourself in your room and drink beers for the rest of the night" He told me as i opened the door heading to my house door.
"Hey where is my goodbye kiss?"he asked me pretending to be offended.
I giggled and walked towards the car giving him a friendly peck on his lips.
"Goodnight" i said
"Sweet dreams princess. Be careful" he responded. And it is now that i realize why people keep saying that we are fucking.
Well we have done that too but just out of curiosity and during drunken nights.
I started walking again getting the key out of my pocket. I kinda want Daniel to drive off so that i can just leave and ...i don't know sleep on a bench tonight but of course he waits for me to get in. Most of the times that makes me feel safe but tonight i just want to grab his curly brown hair and smash his head to the steering wheel. I hesitantly put the key in the lock unlocking it praying to God that nobody was here and for a second i thought God did a miracle or something but this thought was completely out off my head when i saw my dad in the kitchen.
"Jesus Christ where were you Adora i was worried sick" he told me in an irritated but also relieved that i am here way.
"Out" i simply respond throwing Daniel's advice straight into the bin.
"Adora come on we have to talk about this" he told me trying to convince me to tell him how i feel.
"We have nothing to talk about dad. I am going to bed"i said walking towards the stairs as i felt a hand grab my wrist.
"What the hell are you doing?Leave my hand" i said getting angry.
"I know you are mad about me marrying another woman but -" i pull my hand out off his grip before he had the chance to finish his sentence. I turn my back on him trying not to burst out and fucking smash his potato-shaped head to the wall.
"You know i am not trying to find someone to be your mom , the only thing that Christina will do is-"
"Is what? "I interrupt him literally screaming at his face.
"What is she gonna do dad? Is she gonna love you? Is she gonna take care of us? Is she gonna hug us when we cry? Is she gonna tell us that everything will be okay? Because trust me I don't want that. I had someone that did exactly that. But apparently god hates me that much and took her away from me " I shout not caring who might hear me.
"Adora listen t-"
"No I don't wanna hear anything from you. I mean how can you do that to mum? Did you press a god damn button and erase her from your memory? It took you a year to just forget about her and fuck every god damn female on the street. And of course... You ended up having feelings for one of them. Congratulations dad" i say clapping my hands like it was sort of an achievement or something. Not that he is just another asshole that doesn't give a shit about anything else except his dick.
"Adora just shut up and listen to me" he yells the last part startling me.
"I will never, ever love another woman like i loved your mum. Ever. But she would want me to be happy, I know that for sure." As he talks about mum i see his eyes watering.
"I still remember the first day i saw her. She was wearing a beautiful blue summer dress and some white sandals that were too big for her little feet.And when i kissed her for the first time" i see a tear rolling down his left eye as more start escaping from both of his eyes.
"Everything changed... Everything. You know why?" he asks me as i simply shake my head as a no.
"Because that was when i realized that...she was the one. That's when i realized that i loved her,that i wanted to spend the rest of my life with her" i hear him say in a low voice but loud enough for me to hear.
"And i still do. I still love her and i will never be able to stop. Your mum...she was my destiny" he says as countless tears escaped his eyes.
I didn't like seeing him like this. But it's not like i will feel sorry for him. Like he cares when i am sad. Because if he was. He wouldn't be marrying this woman.
He wouldn't be marrying any other woman.
"Adora listen... You can't imagine how much i love your mum. And i will never ever erase her from my memory. Because no matter how devastated we all were after what happened... I wouldn't trade my memories with her for the world. Not even the bad ones. Because when i was on my lowest she had the ability to make me smile again. To make me think that things are actually gonna be okay."
I smile at the thought of my mum. How easy it was for her to make us happy. To help us take a moment to breath and think the positives in the most fucked-up situation.
"I remember her in the hospital bed telling me to take care of you and Eliot. God she was talking about you all the time. She was telling me that i should do whatever i can to make you guys happy and forget about all the bad things that you will face in your lives." I never realized this but when he talks about mum he smiles while trying to hide his tears.
"I can't actually tell you that I know how you feel. Because I don't. But what i can tell you is that nothing will change in our lives. The only thing that will be different is that we will have two other people in this house that will love you. Two other people you will be able to depend on. Two oth-" he rambled on as i interrupted him
"Wait a second. Which two people? I thought it was just Christina" i question him.
"Ohh... Yeah about that....I forgot to tell you something." He says hesitantly most likely cursing himself for spitting this out.
What the hell is he not telling me?
"Cristina she...uhhh."
"She what dad? I don't have all fucking day. "
"She has a daughter"
She has a what?
