"ELA" Daisy shouted surprised as she saw me on entrance of living room

"Happy birthday sweetie" I said smiling at her as she hugged me

"You said you won't come today" she said looking up at me

"We wanted to surprise you" I said as her eyes sparkled

"He is here?" she whispered asked as I turned over to where Ben was standing "oh my gosh" she exclaimed running towards him

"Happy birthday Daisy" he said smiling

"This is the best birthday ever" she said looking at him and then back at me

"Our present for you" I said and gave her little box where necklace was

"Thank you" she said and started to open it "oh my goodness, this is so beautiful" she whined looking at necklace as I leaned closer to see it since Ben didn't want to show me

"Ben chose it" I told her as she looked up at him

"it's so beautiful, thank you so much" she said looking back down at her new necklace

"Want me to put it on for you?" I asked and she nodded giving me necklace

"here" I said as she looked down at her birthstone

"What is he doing in my house?" he asked

"Dad he is-" Daisy wanted to say something but he cut her off

"Go to your room Daisy" he said

"Go with her" I said to Ben and for a second he was just standing on place but at the end he gave up to me and walked with Daisy upstairs to her room

"Firstly, you should call me on the side and then ask me such a thing not in front of Daisy with that tone" I said full of strength now

"Secondly, he is my boyfriend as you already know so well" I said looking at both of them disgusting "Third, I actually wanted to talk about the nonsense you've done" I said as they were just looking at me without trying to say a word

"I know it was you, I know it was you that told medias such a nonsense about me, has been kicked out of parents' house because of taking drugs at the age of 16" I quoted articles "I got kicked out of this house because you hated me, because you didn't love your own child, because you didn't want your own child anymore, because you are so fucked up" I said trying not to show my emotional side, but it was so hard for that

"We also have information that Cooper was really problematic at school as a cause of taking drugs" I quoted articles once again "Problematic at school? I was the best student in generation, and you know it very well. If I was problematic, I won't be where I am today" I said

"You got there because of him" she said

"I was there on professional practice as one of the best in the whole college, I got job there without applying for it, they wanted me to stay work for them, Ben didn't know a single thing about that. I told him few days before I needed to start working. Yes, at first, I also thought that he had something with it, but he had no idea about it" I said as my emotional side started to show

"You think I'm that bad that I will use someone for money or clout? I was living with you 16 years, and you didn't meet me enough? I changed, I changed a lot and that all just because of you, because of you who were fucked up, hating your own child and putting her in the house for children without parents. I dyed my hair because of Daisy, because I didn't want to be reminded that she has something that I lost, that she has something that used to be mine too, that she has someone that I loved more than myself until my dear dad decided to raise hand on me and almost chock me, until my dear mum decided to lie and tell that I tried to kill her baby, my sister, until my dear parents kicked me out of house because they stopped loving me, I started hating them then, but I didn't stop loving them" I said as tears were falling down my cheeks

"I didn't stop loving them not today yet, but I hate them with every piece of my heart because they took my sister from me and didn't give me a chance to meet her for 8 years" I said "it's so hard to hate and love someone at the same moment, it's so hard to love someone who left you and stopped loving you" I said as tears were running down my cheeks

"You probably don't care but my birthday wish this year was to meet Daisy and I did it" I said not looking at them "You fucked my life even more with those articles and if it was your goal, you got it" I said as they were completely quiet

"You were acting really weird when you found your mum is pregnant when you were 16, we thought you didn't want a sibling, but we haven't had mercy to kill innocent baby that's why we couldn't deal with you and your moods. That's why we lied and sent you in that house. When Daisy was about a year old, we wanted you to meet her but every time we came to house you were at they told us you don't want to talk with us or that you have a lot to learn. We were coming to house until the day we came and found that you left house right after you turned 18. We didn't know where you were and after some time, we gave up on watching for you. We were sure you decided to live away from us not wanting to hear anything about us and you had all right for that, that's why we didn't watched for you anymore. Yes, we were kind of mad at you, but we never really stopped loving you, after all you're also our child, our first child that we loved and still loves the most no matter what all happened between us" he said as my heart just broke even more

"That day when I almost chocked you is still running through my head every single day and I will never forget myself raising hand on you, I loved you more than anything and I still can't believe that I did something like that to you" he said sounding sorry?

Can I believe them after everything? Can I believe them after what they did to me? Can I believe HIM after he almost chocked me 9 years ago?
