Chapter 13

Saved by Two Chapter Thirteen:

"She- she died?" Zoe stutters and i nod. She looks really pained and i cock my head confused because i should be the one in pane not her.

"Did she have a good life?" she asks hopefully and i just look at her with a blank expression. Why would momma let me have a horrible life and her have a good one. "Who killed her?" she asks and i just give her the same expression. "Who killed my sister Avlon?" she demands and i flinch.

"Your sister?"

"Yes Avlon my twin sister. Who killed her?" she says a little louder and i just stare at her in shock. Momma never talked about her family she would always tell me it was just us two. I remember i use to ask where here momma was and she would say she didnt have one.

I cock my head confused and a little afraid of the look on her face. She gets closer to me and in my face. I scream bloody murder afraid that shes going to hurt me. I wouldn't put it past her.

Dallas

My Angles scream jolts me out of the game. I look at Walter and he has a look of horror on his face. Without waititng for his response to the scream i jump out of mys eat and run to the kitchen.

I get angty when i see Zoe so close to Avlon she can probably feel the hotness of her breath. Zoe has an angry scowl on her face as she hovers over my tiny angle on the counter.

Grabbing hold of Zoe's shoulders i lift her and mover her aside. I do it gently even though the devil is nagging me to throw her across the room. God will always win with me so i do what he would do and be kind to the lady. I get angry and sin not.

I place my hand on Avlon's arm. She looks up at me when i wrap it around her little wrist. With a relieved cry she throws her arms around my neck and her legs around my waist holding me tightly. "Shhh. Angle you're okay. I've got you." I look over my Avlons shoulder and Walter is speaking Angrily to Zoe in the corner. She's speaking back to him with as much anger and i sigh.

What could have caused her to get so angry with my Avlon. She's so quiet and timid never doing anything to anger anyone. What angered Zoe? "Could you just leave please." i aks them as politely as i can. "Avlon's frightened and Zoe being here is not going to calm her down."

Walter nod sadly i can tell he feels its all his fault and i shake my head at him telling him different only for him to nod and say it is. "By baby girl i'll see you tomorrow." Walter says brushing her back as he passes her. Avlon stiffens in my arms and he sighs sadly frowning.

I know what this means. It means that shes going  to be with drawn for a few days and i can only hope its with him and not with me. I have gotten so far but if thats what makes her feel better then let it be.

They leave the house and i walk up to Avlons room tucking her into bed. She sniffles and i sit beside her wiping her eyes. "Get some rest Angle you look tired. Zoe went home and she wont be back unless you want her to come. Okay?" i ask her and she immediately shakes her head that she doesnt want her to come back. "Will you rest for me Angle?"

She nods and opens her arms. Chuckling i give her a tight hug and kiss her forehead telling her goodnight before i leave the room. I sit on the couch wanting to know so much but knowing i wont get answers unless i wait till tomorrow or call Walter know. I dont want to call Walter because i dont want to hear the story second hand i wan to hear it first but i dont know if Avlon will come out of her room tomorrow and i want to knwo whats up now.

Getting the phone i dial Walters number and he picks up after the second ring. "Zoe is Avlon's mom's twin sister and Avlon told Zoe she was killed. Zoe wanted to know who killed her and Avlon shut down so she got angry and demanded Avlon tell her. I'm so sorry Dallas if i would ahve known this would happen i wouldn't have brought Zoe over. How is my baby girl?" he rushes out before i can even say him.

I'm silent though because Zoe is my angles aunt. She never said that her mother had family. Why would her mothers family let her go to an abusive man and i bet i know who killed her. "Avlon's shook up Walter and i dont know if she'll be out of her room for a while."

"God hellp her." Walter mumbles sadly. "This probably set you back Dallas i'm sorry son."

Sighing i walk to the kitchen to get me a glass of water. This day was going so well only to end so poorly. "Walter it's fine. If hse need space thats what im going to give her i love her Walter and i would do anything for her if that means not seeing her a few days then thats how its gonna work." With a yawn i say "Look Walt don't beat yourself up over this. I'm gonna go to bed and ill see you tomorrow."

He says another sorry and then bids me goodnight.
