~Hidiya's pov
I like him?
I
Like
Demetrius.
Who would've thought this would happen?
Demetrius' pov
(After he dropped Hidiya off)I rushed to my house. I knew exactly who was there. I opened the door and saw him.
I walked passed him and went to my room. My mom came in right after.
"Son your dad came here to apologize. I know you don't want to hear it but please comply until he leaves?"
I grabbed my phone.
I'll try.
I walked back out.
What do you want?
"Is that how you're really gonna speak to me? No hi dad. No anything just 'what do I want?' "
I nodded.
"Wow okay. I want you to forgive me. I know I wasn't the best father. But I'm working on it."
You were a terrible father. You are why I do not speak. You are why this family is ruined. You are why my mom is scared of cooking, of CLEANING her own house. Of raising two boys because she thinks we would end up like you!
"I admit everything I did was wrong. I loved your mother I really did. I cannot change my actions from the past. I hated myself then I still hate myself now. I- I'm sorry son."
Don't apologize to me! I don't want to hear it. You left this family to suffer on its own. You left to take care of a daughter that wasn't even yours. I am not in your care anymore. I never was. I'd like you to leave now.
"Son why don't you just listen to me" He touched my shoulder and I shrugged his hand off as I walked back to my room.
"Kenneth I think it's best if you leave. Maybe you can try another time." I know my dad still wanted to talk but he nodded and left out. Not causing a scene.
That's surprising.
I sat down on my bed. My mom sat next to me and just engulfed me in her arms.
"My sweet son. I love you so much." I hugged her back much tighter.
I love you too.
Hidiya's pov
Marla's mom dropped me off at my home and it was getting pretty dark I didn't want to bother Demetrius but I ended up getting a text from him anyways.
Are you okay?
I immediately blushed.
I can't stop it!
I ran up to my room and flopped on my bed.
He's wondering if I'm okay.
Okay yeah yeah yeah. It's fine just text him back like how you normally do.
Me
"Yeah I'm fine. Are you okay?"Demetrius
"I'm okay. Not feeling the best right now but I'll be okay."
Me
"Are you sure you're okay? If you need someone right now. I could come over there."Demetrius
"No it's pretty dark out plus I'm already here."Huh.
What no.
He can't be here!
I basically flew down the stairs and peeked through the peep hole.
He really is here.
