A Mistake

Chapter 17

No one Pov Harlem,NY

"Why do you all ways try to leave before anyone can speak, it's like your scared to have a actual conversation with people". Dave said blocking Sanai from walking out the kitchen.

"It's not like I want to leave, it's just that I rather walkout before hearing something I don't want to hear. Y'all can play this fake ass game on how y'all want me to stay and live with you guys or force me to open to everyone. When you as my father know damm well I don't feel comfortable enough to open up or be fake enough to tried to create a picture of a happy family when it was never there in the very beginning" Sanai said looking into her father eyes making sure he gets the message.

"You didn't even know I existed till a couple weeks ago David. The way my life ended up is the way you never expected one of your kids to be living like. But here you have it Dave, a hoe for a daughter who do anything for money or just to get away. A person who rather kill herself or be hook up to drugs to just to have a type of escape from reality" Sanai added to get her point across

It took David about a minute or two to let Sanai words kick in into his system. He didn't want to speak right away and get the message he was trying to tell his daughter come across as if he was weird or if it was dumb as he like to call it.

"Look from where I'm standing I hear everything your saying. I Been trying to show you that I care about you. Not talking  Sanai I been showing you my actions on how I come about my own child. I love you with all my heart, I mean damm you my own seed. Weather I knew you were born or not ima love and treat you just the same. I'm disciple and talk to you the same way I treat your sisters. And I'm talking facts go ask them for yourself ". Dave said hesitantly. He was afraid of explaining to less or speaking to much on how he feel.

He can see it in her eyes that she felt every thing that he said but something deep inside her keeps telling her to not believe a word and he wants to change that.

" I hear you son but I just don't know" Sanai said trying to take her eyes off her father.

" what are you not understanding Sanai, tell me!" Dave said increasing the tone of his voice a little loud that everyone in the loving room can here.

"I'm not understanding if you want me here with you.  I'm not understanding if you truly accept me for me. I'm tired of giving my all and trust to people who's gonna lie about how they feel about me.  It just hard for me trust people pops. I'm tired of hearing shit with seeing people actions. I wanna see that before anything". Sanai said shocking Dave Because he barely hear her addressing her as father. He was happy but sad at the same time because he didn't like that this conversation made her do that instead of her doing it when it's a regular situation.

"Look pops I love you, and appreciate you fr.  Because your trying, I gotta give it to you for that fr. But it's gonna take some time and healing for both us to get used to each other" Sanai spoke again trying to break the mini tension that was in the room.

See what David and Sanai didn't know was Megan and Taraji was listening to the conversation the whole time.  Trying their hardest not to interfere with  the Father and daughter duo having a conversation.
