After having dinner, we were sitting in hall, Renee was looking like she swallowed something nasty.

"Callie, We can spend the coming weekend catching up, I can also give you some fashion and makeup tips, seems like you need it" Renee spoke eying me.

First try to learn it yourself girl, your dressing and makeup sucks.

"No thanks, I am comfortable in the way I am" I replied smoothly.

"You are not understanding my point, people choose to be with those they admire and find attractive" she replied sweetly.

Okay, so she is trying to tell me that I am not attractive and lacks fashion sense, But why does your face telling something else.

Is it jealously?

"I won't change myself just to please others, I will choose people who choose me in the way I am" I replied, it brought a small smile on Edwards face.

"I don't want to argue with you" she replied sourly.

"Arguing ? I am simply explaining why I am right?" I told her.

Well I didn't mean to push all her buttons, I was just looking for mute.

"Callie you are just the same, a little bitchy may be, Calm down a bit" Alex spoke for the first time grinning, Greywire family found his comment amusing especially Renee, they started to laughing but I didn't.

"If you find this hard to handle, then Don't try to summon my inner bitch, she doesn't play nice" I replied coolly, it wiped their smiles instantly and everything went silent.

Seeing their reaction Diego and Xander looked like they were biting back their laughter, while Damien,Edward and Victor was looking amused.

Mrs Greywire decided to break the silence after a few moments.

"One day we were talking with your father, he really seemed to miss you, I never saw him that upset. His only relief was the you were having a great life even though you weren't with him" Mrs Greywire spoke sadly, as if remember the incident.

I stiffen at that, My father never even care how I was doing, he was the one who gave me away like I am some damaged product, He don't even have a idea what I went through.

No one knows that.

"We all missed you Callie, You didn't even attend your father's funeral, I thought you are never going to come back" Renee spoke I could hear mocking clear in her voice "You were everything for him, his soul would have departed to heaven even more happily if you with him at his last moment"

Wait! What she say?

My dad died.

I looked at my brother's, they all looked Tensed, Damien and Edward looked guilty, Xander and Diego was looking angry, Victor was looking threatening.

No one thought about telling me!

You didn't ask them, my inner voice countered.

I don't know, what I am feeling at this exact moment, Should I be angry at my brothers for hiding this from me, or should I be sad hearing about my dad's death.

Do I care about him? No I hate him.

Then should I be affected hearing this? Should I mourn for him?

I don't know!

"Why have you gone Silent, you were never silent before" it was Alex, his voice laced with amusement, "I know how you are feeling now Callie?"

Hmm Silent, Have I gone Silent? May be,

I was always silent about my pain, about my sufferings, I always remained silent.

My fucking life made me Silent.

"Since you know it all, you should also know when to shut the fuck up, And about being silent part, I honestly don't care about any of your opinion" I told him coldly, I gave him and his sister a cold glare daring them to continue, Both of them gulped nervously.

Even Mr and Mrs Greywire was loss for words.

No one dared to speak to me again, I sat Silently in couch not at all bothering to even look at the Greywires or anyone while they took their leave almost immediately.

They were literally rushing to get out of our house.

------------------------------------------------------

"Callie" Someone called me few times breaking the trance I was in.

"What?" I snapped in anger.

"Callie, we were about to tell you?" Diego tried to explain

Really!

"When?"

When were you going to tell me?

"Soon, You weren't in a good mood when you arrived and we didn't want to upset you further"

"Who told you I will get upset, it's not like he ever cared for me" I shouted at him.

"Callie, you are angry now, we can speak tomorrow" Diego replied softly.

"Why can't we do it now, I don't want to speak tommorow, whatever you have to speak do it now" I snapped

"Dad died one year ago, we were still looking for you then, but we didn't got any trace of you until a few weeks ago" he replied.

Of course they wouldn't have!

I can't blame them for that, But what surprised me is that they were looking for me, I never expected that.

Even victor told me that they were looking for me for years.

"Leave me alone" I whispered audible for everyone to hear before walking my room.

"Callie, we -" It was Edward before he could complete, I interupted him,

"Leave me alone please"

"I want to be alone"
