Chapter 21
You see I couldn't take it anymore, that fool has destroyed my happiness, every friendship was broken and I hated him. Like the triplet, I did say we don't talk much. Well it is true, I don't know how it happened but we just drifted apart.
When they came over to spend the holiday or have sleepovers it was not the same.
I tried asking them what was going on but they said it was nothing. One day we just drifted apart.
They stopped talking to me since our school was a school for the rich and spoiled brats.
I hated going to school, I hated seeing Dani talking and laughing with other kids but she stopped doing that with me so when I was thirteen I told my mom I wanted to change schools.
I cried and told her I didn't want to stay in this school anymore. My mom just sighed and said even much better why don't we just relocate to another country, "what! What do you mean to relocate mom? I don't want to go, I still want to be able to see Dani, please don't move", I am sorry love but it's not forever we will come back I promise.
I didn't even get a chance to tell Dani goodbye but I did drop a letter for her but I guess she didn't read it cause I have not heard from her for the past five years now am back in this town, I am told to go back to that school, have changed am not that little kid that would be bullied and starts crying for her mother, now am more matured, I took a lot of training boxing, martial arts, and other stuff.
I also love doing sports like running, playing basketball… I can't list all but my grandma made sure I learned a lot of stuff she always says am preparing you for the future *eye roll* What future is that?
I am happy she did because they grew up to love all this more than attending business meetings with her while we were in Canada.
I just followed her and my brother around but I didn't learn anything. They all knew my brother was Ethan's son but they just couldn't figure out who I was so they thought I was "the maid".
I just went with it when my brother corrected them. They wouldn't listen. We just got bored of always correcting them.
So here we are back in New York, I was not looking forward to being here but when I thought of Dani, then I remembered why I agreed to come back and attend this stupid school I just want to see her again, I miss her so much.
I came out to my mom you know that I am a lesbian when I was thirteen, have never been nervous when I told her she laughed at me my mother laughed at me she said "relax honey I know" you know! How did you know I never told you about it before.
Well, honey, I and your aunt Amanda knew that you like girls but most especially you like her daughter, so just for you to know Dani also came out to her parent, what she came out you mean she's gay? Yes honey she's gay me and Amanda talked about it I was just waiting for you to come out, you know to tell me I stared at the floor you are not disappointed? Of course not honey, you are my child and I love you very much no matter who you are attracted to, that was the best day of my life.
Enough about that I am back. I guess I'm happy and a little bit sad, I just hope Dani will talk to me now that I am back.
We got down from the car, we are back to the old house we were staying I saw aunt Amanda and Sam standing there holding a board which said
"welcome back my babies" she was even crying, I looked at her, okay she's pregnant that explains a lot we ran to her aunt Maddy we hugged her me and my brother, she touched my cheek
"oh look at you, you grew more beautiful and did you grow taller" yes aunt, "am taller" I said raising my brows.
I looked around her to see Dani. I mean the triplet but they were not here but her other kids were here.
If you are looking for the triplet, they are not back, they went to visit their gram's, oh, okay.
Come on let's go inside, she went towards my mom and held her tight like they don't see each other, oh my is she smelling my mom geez she's so weird when she's pregnant I left them.
Raven POV
It's so good to see you again Raven, come on Maddy you saw me like three days ago b-but it's been so long, why didn't you come back yesterday like you promise she started crying.
Oh my gosh I should have waited after she gave birth. I moved back but she kept pestering me to come back as if I was her wife or something. I looked at Sam for help but she shook her head and left me, that traitor.
It's okay Maddy, I'm here now so please stop crying. I brought you some stuff
Immediately she stopped crying and dragged me into my house wanting to see what I bought for her, gosh I hate her pregnancy hormone, how many kids does she want to have, this is her eight child.
Few weeks later
Ethan is alive, it’s really surprising, I mean am shocked, we all are but that doesn’t mean some of us are happy of his return like my daughter who has been arguing with him, that’s what is happening right now
Why are you avoiding me?
Am here now, I know I hurt you and your mother but can you please forgive me
No! never
I will never forgive you not after what you did to my mother
You hurt her, and me
Now I found out that you agreed to marry me off to your friend’s son and you think that will ever happen?
He is a good boy, I know he will love and protect you, that is what a father once the most
You still don’t get it do you?
I will never be with him or fucking love him. You can’t just come back into my life and try to control me, I wish you could just remain dead, I said in anger leaving my father shock
I hate him so much, all I want is to be with the love of my life, how could he make such stupid arrangement with my own bully for that matter, I rather die or be disowned than to marry that jerk
Raven, you need to talk to your daughter, this deal will change our lives forever
Our lives or yours? you just come back and expect everything to go back to the way it was, in case you have forgotten, we are no longer together and I will never go back to you. You don’t deserve me or my kids and just so you know, your daughter likes girls not boys. So whatever deal you have made, just fucking call it off
She’s gay? How the hell is she a lesbian?
What do you mean by how, are you stupid or something?
Maybe after all the torturing, you’ve had memory loss, don’t you remember what you did to me?
The slapping, beating, the raping
Me, rape you, he scoffed
Raven, what are you talking about?
I would never do that to you
I scoffed
Ethan, what is the last thing you remember about us?
Well, I remember proposing to you and you told me you were pregnant, then a few days later I was kidnapped
Yeah, your memories are fried, Amanda said glaring at him, don’t even know how she got here
I picked up my phone and called his mother
Ringing
Hey kid, how are you?
Ma you need to come over something is wrong with your son
