Sweet obsession

11

12th June 2009.
Dani's funeral was today.

I don't know how her parents managed to keep the media away, her death wasn't even on the news.

Bill was devastated, cried 3 days straight.
Tom told me he started screaming and almost had an panic attack when he heard about Dani.

I couldn't reach Bill and explain him how i know Dani didn't commit suicide, but i will. Maybe today after the funeral, he has to know after all.

Everything was black, everyone was wearing black.
If Dani was there she'd be so disappointed with her funeral.
She wanted everyone happy, everything white or bright colors.  I talked with her parents about this , but they disagreed.

"Look at you Dani, once so alive and happy , drinking shots after shots , partying like an animal and now, just a cold death corpse lying there waiting to be buried." I told her when i walked to towards her coffin.

I saw Tom entering inside with his head down ignoring everyone eyes.
The band was there too, everyone was there. The director, the manager, even our hospital roommates.

Tom walked to me without saying anything, he grabbed a drink and sit on my right.
We watched as Dani's "friends" had a speech in her name.

It was so boring, all were saying the same stuff, neither of them really knew her..or maybe it was me who didn't.

Tears came into my eyes when this thought walked into my mind.
"How are you holding up?" Tom wisper to my ear and kissed one side of my forehead.
I just nodded and sigh.

What was i supposed to feel? Sadness? Anger? Confused?
All i felt was empty and embarrassed. Embarrassed that i can't prove Dani death was murder.

Tom wrapped his arms around my waist and sat on my back. We all were standing up , listening to their stupid speeches.

I couldn't face Bill, he would break down if me saws me. Maybe i remember him of Dani, since we were close.

"How it's Bill?" I lift my head up to see Tom.
"Not well, but he'll get thorough it." He said looking at the person who was speaking.
"I hope so" i said turning back to "watch" the speech.

At the end of everyone's speeches Dani's parents asked for me. They looked angry.
"I heard you called me."
"Josephine.." Dani's mom said but started crying immediately.
"Do you have any memories from Danielle?, anything, videos, photos, a journal even a book that she enjoyed." Her father said with a serious voice.
"I think i do-"
"Bring them to us as fast as you can..please" the man voice cracked when he said please. I could feel the suffering they re going through just by his voice.
"Yeah,yeah sure."
"We need them..our daughter it's innocent" the woman said crying, but the man give her an angry look and almost hit her.
"What do you mean innocent?"
"She means ,Danielle was just a victim of this cruel world. We want to get closer to who Danielle was."
"Sure Mr Godin, i ll do it."
"Thank you, thank you so so much! You re an angel!"

Poor woman she is devastated. I feel so bad for her. Losing your only child like this...they're guilty tho if only they been closer to her she wouldn't have gotten killed.

My step-mother was there. The fuck is she doing here? She never liked Dani,Dani hated her. Ugly Bitch!

"Oh my sweetest!" She said walking to me.
"Phatrishia! I never thought i ll see you here!"
Even her name it's annoying.
"Josephine my child, your father is here so , i have to follow my husband." She said giggling.

She's the type of woman everybody hates. Phatrishia have long blonde hair, blue eyes full of wrinkles..and botox. A lot of botox. She's from Germany, her accent it's killing me, her personality it's basically being a bitch behind everyone's back and the sweetest old mama around them.I don't know why my father even likes her.

"Oh yeah." I wanted to leave but she kept talking.
"How it's your life little sweetie?"
"Pretty good, tanks for asking."
"Are you still in therapy?"
Bitch.
"No, i don't need it anymore."
"Really? You don't look alright to me."
"Maybe because we're at a funeral, people tend to cry and suffer at funerals or at least feel bad."
"Yeah, of course!..how are you and that boy Philip told me about..Bob? Or was it Skirt?"
Fuck you, you old cunt.
"You mean Tom?"
"Yes! Yes! Tom! I heard he is german too, maybe you ll bring a german baby into our family" she said waiting for me to get mad.
"I ll do what? Look , i don't know what my father told you about me , but i ain't dating no one." And i did get mad. Shes the worst.

She winked at me and moved her eyes from me.
"Really? Cuz he been staring at you the whole time."
I turned to look around and saw Tom looking at me, he moved his eyes from me after we made eyes contact for some seconds

"Oh don't be shy Dommy! Come here!"
He walked to us smiling in a shy way.
"I m Josephine mother!" She said shaking hands with Tom.
"Step mother." I added.
Tom wanted to speak but she interrupted him."No need to present yourself Dom, i know who you are."
He giggles and look at me.
"Josephine huh?" Tom asked.
"Yeah" i shrugged.
"So? When's the baby coming?"
Tom laughed, i look at her with an angry face.
"We'll see." Tom said smiling.

He acted like a sweet innocent boy, not like someone who chocked me with his dick just some nights ago.

They started talking in german. Of course she did that to piss me off. To make me feel dumb.
My father walked to us , he was so happy that me and her were talking.
"Tom, right?" He said shaking Tom's hand.
"Victoria's father? So nice to meet you sir!"

No!no!no! Why would you ever call him sir? Call my father "yo!" Or something. Tsk, now he ll love Tom, he ll want me to bring Tom everywhere.

We talked for a while until Phatrishia had an genius idea to invite me us to dinner.
"Ah! I would love to, but my brother it's not in the best shape and i want to be here for him. Maybe next time!"
"Oh right, where it's Bill at?" I asked Tom.
"He is waiting in the car."
"We should go then! Bye dad!"
"Goodbye Mr and Mrs Moore."

I walked fast and dragged Tom after me.
"Why was that about? Why were you so polite to my father?"
"What? Were you expecting me to ask like a scumbag?"
"Kinda of. Why did you say "next time"?! Tom i hate that woman with my whole soul!"
"Yeah, i saw" he said smiling.

We arrived at the car but Bill was gone, he left us an message saying he is going home.
"You think he is ok?"
"Yeah, he probably just need some time alone."
"Ah..i wish i cou-"
And there i was interrupted again by Phatrishia.
What does this bitch wants again?

"Josephine! Wait! Join us for lunch!" She said as she was still walking towards us.
"Come on, it ll be fine!" Tom said looking at me with an excited face while placing his arm on my shoulders.
"I hate them" i wisper to Tom.
"It's fine if yo don't want to Victoria." My dad said.
"I ll come dad, i don't have anything else to do anyway." I wanna see what this bitch wants

We walked to my father cars, this time he drive himself. I sit in the back with Tom, while Phatrishia sit in the front with my dad. I noticed her pushing my father's hand on her thighs. Gross bitch.

"Shes ugly as hell." Tom wisper to me.
I smile and wrapped my arms around Tom's waist, placing my right arm on his abs, resting my head on his chest.
