Okey,where will I start? Hmmm...I think...okey... Here's what happen. Grace's mom arrives then it was like a bomb. Boom! We all become so emotional,well except for my brother(I think). "James? What are you doing here?" Joan ask almost instantly after she step inside the house. Then Grace hugged her tightly. "Mom, I need to tell something." Grace said. "Are you okey,honey?" Joan asked. "Mom,he's a jerk and a stupid." Grace said as she look at James. My eyes grew big. Did Grace say jerk and stupid in one sentence? Hell! That would be great record! "Grace! Watch your words!" Joan warned. "No mom. I need to tell you this. And for the hundreth time I beg you to listen." Grace turn to James. "He's been cheating on you. I saw him tonight with a girl. And not just a random girl. He's with Sasa. You remember her,right? Sasa the secretary. Sasa's been licking him like a hotdog. And been kissing him like a pot of gold. He-..." "Stop it,Grace. You're just tired. Your exams have just finished." Joan cut her off. "No! Listem to me mom. He's been lying to us!" "No,Grace. You shut up and let's go home." Then Joan grab Grace's right hand. But Winston grab the other. "Let her finish,Aunt Jo." "Winston,this is a family problem. So please stay away." "No! We are her friends!" Winston replied. "I really appreciate your efforts. But we need to settle this on our own." Then Joan pulled Grace. But I stop her. "Joan,I know this is a family problem but Grace seek our help and we won't let Grace down. And also,she ask for a place and I offered our house. So no one can drag Grace out of here except herself." "Teenagers nowadays really don't know when to stop beimg stubborn." Joan said. Wow! She didn't became stubborn when she's still young!! "Mom,stop! They are just doing what they think is right." "No Grace,this friemds of yours became a bad influence to you." How dare her! Bad influence? Like we use weeds? Hell! Pot is awful! It smells ugly. "Mom,this is not about my friends. This is about him. How bastard he is." "Grace! Don't talk to your father like that!" "Father? He's no father to me! He is just some asshole. I dirt smudge that clings tightly to my life!" Woah! I never heard Grace say that. "That! That's what you've gain from your so called 'friends'! " That set my blood to boil. I know I can contain simple words. But becoming a BI?? Hell!! She can check my grades and my records! "I already said stop saying words about my friends! Mom! Just listen! Okey? I want to tell you this a long time ago! He's been seeing Sasa for a long time now! I saw at the park doing some dirty works! But I just ignored that. I said it's not him. But then it happen again. I saw him with HER,doing again the same stuff. But this time in our house,in the kitchen. But again,I ignored it. Because I see you are happy being with him and I have loved him. I know he's been sweet and loving and all,but it's just been a facade. And then last week,I heard him,his talking to her,I know because he called her 'babe'. He said he just want your connections so that he can earn a quick position. He seeks only money and power! But he never love you." "All that's a lie!" James shouted. "Joan,listen to me,she is just being influenced badly by this people." He gestured us. Then he move and hold Joan's hands. "There is no truth with all of that. And the only truth is that I love you and I'm always faithful." "Stop being a jerk!" Grace said. "Don't be fooled,mom! He is lying." I can see desperation from Grace face. I can feel she knows where this is going. I,too, seen it on TV. This is where Jame's statement weighs more than Grace's because she is just the daughter. "Grace,honey,listen okey? I know you've through tough times in school. But that doesn't mean you can make accussations to your father or to any one." By that Grace cried. I,too,want to cry. But I know I need to be strong. "Mom,why? Why letting this asshole fool you? Why believing him? Mom I'm saying the truth! And this is not because I'm tired and all. But this is because I cared much of you that I want you to wake up! Why can't you see that?" "Honey,please don't make this hard for all of us." "I'm not making it hard. Your making it hard. I don't know what you see in him. But mom,he's just using you." "Stop it already,Grace. I just let you speak up because I know it's for your own good. But it has taken far that I need to cut it already." James said. My blood boils again. How can he say those words? That he knows the truth! That he's a liar! "Jerk! How could you make Grace a liar?" Winston injected. "Aunt Jo,Grace is saying the truth. I saw him tonight with that Sasa girl. I saw him enjoying his night with her and his freinds. I can stand witness." Winston continued. "Winston is telling the truth." I said. "Because I saw him too." "Children,I know freinds stands for their freinds. But please don't fed up Grace lies." "Now your saying I'm a liar. Do you really think I can do that? To lie? Especially in this kind of situation? No,mom,I can't do that." When Joan was about to say something,Al break in. I never thought he would enter the argument. He's been quite. "I don't see it actually but base on all what they said,I think they are telling the truth. Because for once,I saw James beg for Grace earlier. So that he can talk to you first before her. And honestly I don't know what's going on until now. So it sum up for me in three things, I mean three questions and this is base on your point of view Aunt Jo. First,Why would James be here in the first place? Like what you have ask earlier." "Because.." James was about to cut him but he didn't let him. "Wait. Let me finish first. When in the first place he is suppose to be away on a bussiness trip,right? Secondly,Why would James have a kiss mark on his neck amd a smell of a drunk person? I don't really think being trunk on a trip is good. And lastly, Why would Grace lie to you? That we all know how you brought up Grace. And how she is in the past years.
