My Little Baby

Chapter 5

Type's pov:

I leaned on the armrest of the couch as he snuggled on top of me.

I could tell he was scared.

It's not surprising.

He was mocked and raped by someone he trusted as family.

Of course it wouldn't be easy talking about something like that.

"I can just tell her what you told me. She can get the details out of that bastard." I suggested after a few minutes of silence.

"I don't think he'll tell her any truth... The few times she's suspected him before, he's cooked up some stories to cover everything up successfully." He said softly.

I gritted my teeth.

"But this time, she will know your side of the story. She will know not to believe his lies."

"Mmm... I don't want to hated..." His voice was even softer.

"No one will hate you ok? You were a victim. He's the predator." I said firmly.

He tightened his arms around me and nodded slightly.

"I love you... Thank you na..."

"I love you too. You don't need to thank me for anything." I kissed his hair.

...........

That day, when mom came in the afternoon, i told her what Tharn had told me.

He did try to tell her himself but he couldn't.

He just kept crying and his voice wouldn't come out properly.

But what i had told her was enough for her to go into rage.

She stormed out after saying she would make him pay dearly for laying his hands on Tharn.

That night, the sound of pain filled cries and screams emanated in the bedroom of our apartment.

Everything he had been holding in over the years just spilled out as if a dam had burst.

I couldn't stop myself from crying as i heard the pain and anguish in his voice as he broke down completely in my arms.

I could hear the small boy who was betrayed and given such a painful experience by someone he trusted so much.

...........

It didn't come as a surprise that he was in little space when he woke up the next morning.

I smiled softly as i looked at him.

His red and swollen eyes were wide open and looking at me with fascination.

We were still sitting on the bed.

"Hey, baby. Can you tell me how old you are today?" I asked pulling him onto my lap.

He nuzzled against me before raising 2 fingers.

I nodded.

Even younger than yesterday.

"Ok. Let's go get cleaned up hm? Then we'll have some breakfast together." I patted his head gently.

He nodded against my chest.

His thumb was in his mouth and he was lightly sucking on it.

I deicided to leave it until he's cleaned up.

I got up from the bed holding him in my arms.

..........

The warm water from the shower really helped with his swollen face.
