I hear a car pull into the driveway, it sounds like dads, so I get off my bed and go see if he can tell me what happened this morning. I walk out of my room and down the stairs as dad opens the back door, I can see some shopping bags and a paper in his hand.
"Hey dad, I can help you with that." I say to him. I take three bags of shopping and I go to reach for the paper in his hand but he quickly removes it from my reach.
"Thanks Farren," he says as we walk into the kitchen. "Can you please unpack the shopping while I go talk to your mother?"
I nod in reply, and start unpacking the shopping, when dad is out of sight I quickly sneak around the corner following him. He reaches the top of the stairs and turns to walk down the hallway, into the office, where mum is. I don't go too close, just close enough to be able to hear what they were saying. I know it's childish but I just need to know.
I start to hear dad talking, but it turns into a whisper. I get frustrated and try to crawl up the stairs a bit closer, so I can hear what he is saying. I am finally in listening reach, but I didn't need to hear much before I ran back down stairs.
"You little bitch!" dad exclaimed, then I heard the slapping sound of wood meeting bare skin. This was it, this was the last time I would let him treat her like that.
I run down stairs and back into the kitchen, I finish unpacking the shopping. Before I knew it dad was downstairs again, I see him and run out the back door. He runs after me, "Farren!" He shouts, "I would never hurt you!"
"But you would hurt my mother!" I scream at him.
"Calm down Farren!" He shouts as he try's to catch up with me. "Stop running!"
"You would hurt her wouldn't you?!" I shout back at him, as I stop running.
He was silent, "I wouldn't hurt you." He said in a calmer tone.
"That's not what I asked!" I say still in a tempered voice. "Do I have to repeat myself?"
"No, no okay." he said getting a little grumpier.
"Then leave me and my mum alone!" I scream, "you don't deserve to be married my mother and you don't deserve to have me as your child."
He stands there blankly, no expressions on his face at all.
So I pick up a near by stick, hold it in a defensive position and yell at him again, "GET OFF THIS PROPERTY!"
He raises an eyebrow and has that 'are you serious' look in his eyes. Soon enough he gets the memo, puts his hands up and starts to walk slowly down the drive way.
