" hey, so whatever happened between you and my dad? " I asked anthony as we sat in silence in his office.
" he didn't want to deal with me, claimed i was a bastard child but it was never about me. it was about her unloyalty. " he said nonchalantly.
" so he made you leave? " i asked furrowing my eyebrows a little.
" no mom sent me to live with my dad. see your dad would do things like disclude me, give me dirty looks or what not which you know isn't nice for a kid to experience and i had felt like a burden and not to mention uncomfortable so I asked her- no begged her to let me stay with him. " he said and i nodded not knowing how to reply.
Why take that out on a kid? What possesses you to treat a kid so wrong..
" but what about you? what happened between you and your dad? and why is your neck red? " he questioned and left his side of the desk to come sit by me.
" I mean his behavior hasn't changed apparently. " I said and next thing you know there were gunshots.
" GET DOWN! " anthony yelled pulling me down and shielding me.
I quickly felt around for my gun on my body and the shit was in my car.. damn.
I stood up about to run to the corner when the sound of glass broke followed by a thud which made me look at the window and duck again.
" Anthony you- " I started as I turned back around and he was there bleeding out.
" Anthony. " I said quickly going up to him.
Everything felt like it was in slow motion and the gunshots kept going.
I began to pull him when i felt a sting on my arm, but that didn't stop me.
These bastards shot me- whoever they are.
" anthony, don't close your eyes " i said frantically
" MOMMY! " i heard a tiny voice yell.
huh..
" MOMMY!! " i heard again and looked up to see serenity with blood all over her.
" SERENITY " i yelled running towards her and all of a sudden i was back in my bed.
I put my hand on my chest and looked around to see serenity standing beside the bed with a cookie in her hand.
I understand how random that may sound, but it's true and i already knew who gave it to her.
" come on baby " i said pulling her up and sitting her beside me.
That dream reminded me of a conversation me and anthony had.. which makes me wonder is he real?
There's only one way to find out.
Maybe if i go talk to them..
But then again it's a huge debate..
" HONEY I'M HOMEEEE! " i heard stephanie yell followed by my door opening a few seconds later.
" hey you know you're supposed to knock, i could've been naked. " I said and she side eyed me before shrugging her shoulders.
" Okay so do you think you'd be willing to do me a favor? " i asked as she walked over to the bed and sat down.
" depends.. " she trailed off.
" i could do it myself but i don't have all the resources i need- anyway do you think your friend kuma can find someone for me? " I asked referring to the friend who she had an on and off fling with.
" I don't talk to kuma BUT it's been a while and you're my sister, so why not? " she said pulling her phone out.
" Thank you! His name is Anthony, has to be the son of Ella Raines but she may go by a different name. He can just go through the Raines family to find information. " I said and she put her phone down before looking up at me with a sigh.
" please don't. i just want to see if he's real. " i said not wanting to be lectured on how i should leave it alone.
But i find it funny how they keep telling me to leave it alone, like shouldn't i be processing?
But then again it's been over two months.
" okay i get it, i'll get kuma on it. " she said and i nodded taking in the silence- okay well it wasn't exactly silent because serenity was smacking.
" and if you do find him, what's the plan? " she asked and i shrugged my shoulders, because knowing me I won't approach him.
" you know what? why am I acting so scared. They all know and knew I existed so there's no point for me to keep looking for THEM if the energy wasn't reciprocated. " I said coming to realization.
I'm just a girl.
A 17 year old girl at that.
I'm just more mature and more- yeah i thought i was an adult already but basically i am mentally.
" you couldn't have come to this conclusion a long time ago? " she asked sarcastically.
" i was biased. " i said and sighed looking at serenity.
" is Diana downstairs? " I asked.
" yes, she was roaming the refrigerator. " she said and i nodded not surprised, a lot of times it seems like that's why she comes over.
" I see I'll have to restock. " i said laughing and began putting my hair in a messy bun.
" so what made you want to search him up after all this time? i figured you had already done that.. " she trailed off.
" I wasn't thinking but i just had a dream that we were in a shootout- well we were talking about joseph first before it happened and then he got shot. I did too but it's not about me. " I said casually.
" maybe it's a sign? " she said jokingly but i took it serious because well it could be.
Everything happens for a reason right?
" maybe " i said and her phone beeped.
" okay, he said give him 24 hours. " she said and i nodded hoping the pieces would just connect.
Oh kuma stands for kai umil malden andrews, and before you ask what kind of name that is- It's what his parents named him- he has both parents' last names.
I need to take my mind off of this, maybe i should go to a park or something!
But then again this situation would only leave my mind temporarily for a few minutes before it engulfs me again.
I'm so confused- god help me.
