Not My Parent's Favorite

Chapter 46

Angela

"Bryan!" I yelled from across the room. He was in my house at the wrong time. I didn't invite him, nor was he welcomed. "What the fuck are you doing here?!"

"You are not getting married!" He yelled as if it was supposed to be a demand.

I couldn't believe this motherfucker burst in here and ruined a moment for Randall and Dion. The mood changed dramatically, but it usually does when Bryan enters a room. Randall quickly slipped the ring on Dion's finger as I walked over to Bryan with Michael standing close behind me.

"You don't have a say as to what I do anymore, Bryan. And what you WON'T do is come into my home and interrupt whatever is going on in here! You were not invited and not welcomed!"

"This is a family function is it not!" Bryan uttered looking around.

"Yes!" Vicki yelled walking from the other side of the room. "But last time I checked Father, you disowned every last one of us, therefore YOU have no family here!"

Bryan huffed looking back and forth between Vicki and I. "I am still your Father!"

"Funny? That's not what you said when you kicked me out!" Vicki snapped.

"And that's certainly not what you said to me either!" Randall chimed in. I looked at my children standing up for themselves and standing up to Bryan.

"WE HAVE NO FATHER! A Real Father wouldn't disown their children - All 4 of us." Mari added as she walked over and joined the group.

Bryan scoffed at Mari, looking as if she was crazy.

"4?" He laughed and held his chest. "Just as stupid as I thought. There are only 3 of you. Sounds like your Mother has been telling you stories again." He looked at me.

"Stories, Bryan?" I asked. He was playing me for stupid. "Seriously?"

"Angela, have you taken your meds lately? You're having hallucinations again. And now you're getting the kids to believe you. I've spawned only 3 children." He smiled and looked at all of us.

He turned and smiled at everyone as they watched our drama unfold. He loved being the center of attention. I looked around and people were shocked and dismayed by the display of Bryan's behavior.

"I'm NOT stupid nor am I hallucinating, Bryan," As I stepped forward smiling slyly. "But you may be."

He chuckled, "What are you talking about? Are you delusional?"

"Far from it, Bryan. Far from it."

"Is that so? Why do you say that?"

"Look behind you." I said, smiling from ear to ear. The smile on Bryan's face began to disappear as he stared at me.

I narrowed my eyes, glaring at him as I tilted my head. "What's the matter, Bryan?"

He tightened his lips and pointed his finger at me, Michael stepped closer and I quickly grabbed his hand. I wanted Bryan to experience this and I wanted to see all of it. As Bryan slowly turned his head, Bryan David walked forward through the crowd heading straight for him. Bryan's eyes bulged out as he came face to face with his doppelganger.

Amanda walked behind Bryan David and confronted Bryan. Bryan stepped back not expecting to see both of them ever again.

"YOU!" Bryan pointed at Amanda. "How could you! YOU SIGNED AN AGREEMENT!"

"You're right, I did." She said calmly. "But HE didn't!" She looked at Bryan David looking back at Bryan with such anger, he looked like he wanted to mutilate him.
