Finn's Baby- Complete

I woke up with lydia sleeping soundly on my chest. I smiled looking down at her. My world as changed so much for the better these past couple of days. My thoughts were stopped when I heard yelling from downstairs. I recognised the voice anywhere. What the fuck was Rosa doing here? Lydia awoke to the sound and rolled her eyes at her mothers antics.

I lifted the girl up and kept her on my hip as I walked downstairs. At the bottom of the stairs was the spawn of Satan herself. Yay. Sense the sarcasm

"You had no right to take my daughter away from me so she is coming home. Be grateful I'm not taking her back to London" I was not expecting this. I thought I would wake up with a call from Mr Wood telling me I had full custody. But no. I woke up to the sound of lucifer preaching

"She's broke her wrist and you didn't even notice" I said trying not to yell as Lydia had fallen asleep again

"I was having fun. Its not my fault she's ruining my life"

"Then why do you want her? Why do put her through all this misery by making her stay with you when you could give her up and get drunk. Or just let me spend more time with her rather than having a curphew" I whisper yelled

"You know why I don't want her living with you?" I nodded my head

"Because I won't let you win Finn Shelby" she said to me with a smirk on her face. She grabbed Lyd and forced her to stand up straight

"Go upstairs. I want you packed and ready to leave in 20 minutes" she ordered. Lydia's face dropped but she didn't want to argue with her mother.

"Did you get a call from your father?" I asked

"Yes I did. Telling me to give Lydia up. But I can't do that. I may seem heartless but she's my daughter. Who else is going to marry a rich husband? She's my goal to success" she said cockily

"You're 20. You could easily get married again and have more kids. But i understand you love her and can't give her up" I told her

"Love her? God no. How could anyone love a child. Snotty nosed. Constantly crying and asking for things because nothings quite right"

"I take it back" I muttered to myself. I went upstairs to go and help Lydia and found her asleep in my bed. I decided to pack for her and let her get more sleep. When she had 10 minutes to get ready, i woke her up slowly and lifted her up

"It's time to get dressed. Do you need help or are you ok?" I asked.

"I'm OK daddy" she said kissing my cheek. I smiled and left her to it. When she came downstairs, she had a sollem expression on her face and tears in her eyes

"Come on. I'm getting bored" Rosa complained as she forced Lydia to speed up. My daughter stopped and gave me a hug as I crouched her her height

"I love you princess. I'll see you tomorrow" I told her

"Love you daddy" she said. Rosa grabbed her by the hand and made her walk fast to the car and as chauffeur drove them away. Damn it. I was so close. I had so much hope last night and now it's gone. All gone

When we got to mother's house, she punished me straight away. My legs were bruised and my hands had cane marks on them from my mother's brute force. It was Monday so I spent the entire day with different tutors and it was so boring.

I hate cooking and cleaning. Latin is boring. French is easy and I'm fluent but boring. Ballet hurts my toes and it's so difficult. Music is a disaster that bleeds my ears. I am not musically inclined. And etiquette makes me feel like a doll being forced to do things like drink tea properly and stand straighter. I swear I am gonna stay my tutor one day

The only thing getting me through the day was knowing that we were having spaghetti for tea. That's literally the extent of my will to live. I get pasta! God my life sucks.

I know what your thinking. I have money and riches and food. But I got other problems. I'm a girl, learning how to be a woman, with a mother who doesn't understand the concept of childhood and a father who has been a secret for 5 years thanks to Satan's wife aka my mother.

I had told isaiah what happened. He was round mine helping me drink away my sorrows.

"So she's not giving her up?" He asked

"No. I know I sound fucking cruel asking a woman to give up her child but she doesn't love Lyd and all she's doing is ruining her life"

"The woman needs help. Maybe we should send her to a mental institution" he suggested. I scoffed and said

"They'd send her back" no one can put up with that woman. No one

"So tomorrow she's coming here for tea?" He asked

"Ye. I'm picking her up after he tutoring is over. I've gotta make the most of this week. I see her this week to know her and the weekend. But after that, Rosa said it would be strictly weekends only. I think that's just so she can have some nights out" I explained

"How bout on Saturday you bring her garrison" he suggested

"I might do. I'll ask her what she wants to do but she seemed to like everyone. After polly she just needs to meet me brothers wives and uncle Charlie. She'll meet Charlie on Sunday when we go see the horses. And she'll meet the girls soon enough" I informed him.

That night, I slept with worry. I didn't know what was happening and although and I knew she was physically safe, rosa I'd alot of work mentally. The things she says is not something for a child's ears. But she manipulates Lydia to believe her. My daughter mentioned that she thought women who wear trousers had been possessed by the devil. When I asked where she heard that can you guess where? Rosa. Her own mother than been teaching her that just so Lydia wouldn't wear trousers. Fucking ridiculous
