LOVELY ENEMIES

Chapter 38

DANIEL'S POV
Living alone and caring for my sick mom can be so depressing. Ever since my mom fainted after hearing my dad was going to jail she has been sick, Not only does she refuse to eat she doesn't leave the house, and each day she grows weaker and continues to stare at Dad's picture. I fear that one day she will leave me too, the way that Lizzy and the rest left. I walked into her room with a tray of food and her medication.
I placed the tray on the table and walked up to her, Mom, your food is ready come have some.

She turned the other side, like a little child who was angry at her father.

Mom, I said and held her hands, Since you came back from the hospital you refuse to eat something.

She pushes my hand away, I'm not hungry. What I want is my husband, give me back she said wailing like a child.

Mom, there's nothing I can do for him, he needs to pay for his crime.

Your dad is innocent, someone is framing him.

Mom, don't act ignorant, as if you don't know how evil he is.

Give me back my husband, she said hitting me.

Fine, I'll leave, When you feel hungry the food is over there I said pointing at the table and walking away.

I need a place to cool my head, I'll go out and get some fresh air.

I left the house, entered my car, and drove to Hunter's place, Even though he hates me we are still friends, and I need to see him.

I arrived in front of his place, I knocked gently as I stood in front of his door. After the second knock, the door went open.

Hunters pov
I sat on the sofa watching my favorite show when I heard someone knocking, I stood up and walked to the door, I opened up and was surprised to see Daniel standing in front of me. What does he want I thought.

Why are you here, I asked

To see you, or am I not welcome, he said and walked in

I shut the door and followed him behind, of course.

I've missed hanging out with you.

Is my ear functioning well or is it playing trick on me, I thought. If you are here to hit or punch me, go ahead and punch me, don't pretend everything is fine.

It was wrong of me to hit you before, and for that I am sorry, you lost your dad because of mine, I never knew, it must be hard faking everything is okay around me. I never knew my dad was that evil, I know the amount of apology can make up for your loss.

It's not your fault, I don't have a grudge against you, I just want justice.

I make sure you get the justice you deserve, nobody is bigger than the law not even my father.

Are you ready to go against him

Yes, the law comes first.

I admire you, you are ready to disown your family just justice

Yes, that's my duties
