Blowing up dogs

"Mama what are you doing here!" I exclaim.

"Well the argument was a big one and I just needed a little break, honey," Mom explains.

"Thank you for letting me stay Sheila." She mumbles.

"Oh! It's nothing, I'm always here for you Laura." Sheila exclaims.

I squeeze my mom tight and smell her usual gingerbread scent, although it's slightly battling the floral scent from the Broflovski house.

"Come on, I've got to go apologize to your father." My mom says, nudging my arm slightly.

"Uhm, mama..." I whisper.

She hums in response.

"I want to meet my real dad, Adriano," I mumble, my mom freezes and Sheila makes an odd noise before going back inside her house.

"Uh yeah okay sure, I'll call your Abuela." She says in a shaky voice.

My heart begins to feel heavy.

I'm finally going to meet my dad.

My real dad.

Oh, wait.

Butters is still here.

I let go of my mom and see him awkwardly stood, ripping his nail off slightly.

I clear my throat.

"Let's... Go back home." I say.

.

.

I jump onto my bed and so does Butters.

"Gee, what a day!" Butters exclaims with a big grin.

"Do you think Tweek will still want to date me?" I ask, staring at my feet, I'm wearing one blue solar system sock and one red racer sock.

"Craig, you're a great guy, who wouldn't want to" Butters mumbles the last part.

His phone soon starts to ring and he pulls a worried look.

"I've... got to go, sorry Craig, I'll see you at school," Butters says before rushing off.

"Okay? Bye.." I mumble, although he doesn't hear me, and by the time I finish saying bye he's out the front door.

I lay back on my bed and stare at the stars on my ceiling.

I love space! 

Anytime I see something to do with space or Red Racer, I feel so happy and hum and flap my hands about.

I should re-watch all of Red Racer tonight.

Soon there is a knock at my door and my dad walks in.

"Hey kid, you're mom told me about your request and she's called your Abeula. She wasn't ready to tell you so I am but they're coming down here on Tuesday, so you'll have that day off." He explains with a sad look.

I sit up and open my arms.

He gives me a confused look so I stand up and pull him into a hug.

"You'll always be my dad, no matter what," I mumble into his chest.

He bear hugs me back until I can't breathe.

I hit his back to signal that I'm dying and he lets me go.

He laughs and then walks out of my room leaving me stood up.

I look over at my speaker, the one that played the music when Tweek was here.

I walk over and put on Squeeze Me by N.E.R.D.

Also known as the SpongeBob, sponge Underwater song.

It starts to play and I tap my leg and wave my arms.

I then wiggle my arms about and sway to the music.

I then lift up my legs like I'm in a marching band.

My door creaks open slightly.

I continue to dance and the door suddenly opens fully.

There stands Tricia with a mix of sad and happy on her face.

"I thought you were playing Minecraft, I was going to join you but this is much better!" She exclaims.

She then runs over and grabs my hand and I spin her around.

She giggles and sways her arms with me.

Soon the song is over and we laugh and fall back onto my bed.

"When you meet your real dad will you leave us for him?" Tricia mumbles.

I sit in silence for a second and stare at the moon sticker on my ceiling.

"No. I won't leave you guys, even if he's an astronaut with a giant mansion." I say.

Tricia sits up and smiles at me.

"Good, if you do have another sister, she won't be as good as me," Tricia says proudly, pointing at herself.

"Hmm I don't know, I didn't really want you when we went to the adoption center." I shrug my shoulders and smirk.

"I am not adopted, Craig! Stop!" Tricia squeals.

I laugh and then Tricia body slams onto my stomach, I scream and then groan in pain.

"Gaybo." She mutters with a devilish look.

"Demon," I mumble while holding my stomach.

"I want to play Minecraft now!" She demands.

"Fine. But don't blow up my garden and dog house again." I roll my eyes and stand up.

I walk over to my PC with Tricia following behind.

I turn it on and sit down.

"I love you Craig." Tricia mumbles, looking everywhere but me.

"Yeah love you too, but I don't love that fish breath." I reply with a smile.

"Mom made fish for lunch! Shut up" She shouts.

I talk to Tricia some more as I open things on my PC and soon Minecraft opens.

"I'm getting a drink, I'll be back." I say before getting up and walking out into the hallway.

"I'm scared to see him Thomas, the last time I saw him was before I went into labor." Mom cries.

"It'll be fine, the boy needs some closure with his actual father and you don't have to see him." Dad says.

I stop listening and walk back into my room.

I look at my screen and all my Minecraft dogs are dead.

"Woops" Tricia mumbles.

I roll my eyes and sigh.

This is going to be a long game.
