Did I hear correctly? Or my ears was on a 10 seconds break.

"I think there is something going on between your daughter and my son",those words repeated in my head over and over again. What did she meant by that?
Do she know about Jacob and I?
How could she find out?

"What is your mother talking about?"I whispered.

He shrugged and looked more frightened than I was.

"Explain",said dad in a tone of concern.

"Well,maybe I am wrong but I think I saw the two kissing",said Shaneka.

I wanted to faint. This can't be happening. What we did is wrong I guess but how could she knew?

"What!!!"shouted dad better yet he yelled. "Zamoia and Jacob,downstairs now" .

I heard footsteps marching upstairs and that was our chance to separate from each other.

"Where the hell they could be!"dad shouted angrily kicking what supposed to be my door.

"Calm down David",Shaneka said. "Maybe I saw wrong".

"They are hiding,so you're telling the truth",said dad.

It was a matter of time and he'll eventually find me and beat the living sense out of me. I thought we were careful with our relationship. I shouldn't have agreed with Jacob. It's all his fault. Just maybe if I... it will be cruel I don't care anymore.

"Dad!"I shouted and he immediately replied. "Where the hell are you?".

"Downstairs",I said,with a feeling of regret.

"Really amoia",he said looking disappointed. "Why?".

I lower my eyes to the ground. "I need her to explain everything she saw",I said. Dad and Shaneka exchange looks. "Where's Jacob?"asked Shaneka.

I shrugged, "I don't know where he is".

"Lies!you're probably protecting hi. Jacob Latimore, get your skinny ass down here!"shouted dad,pacing back and forth while shaking his head at me.

"Jacob baby don't be scared",said Shaneka.

I was wondering why they didn't call his cell phone . I guess they're too caught up in this although he wouldn't answer.

Hissing his teeth,dad ascended  up the stairs for a second time,looking pissed as ever.

I heard shouts and expletives coming from his mouth. He was so angry and I know why but have a don't care feeling about this situation. He is my step brother,not my blood brother so why was dad so upset?

Shaneka looked at me in a way which suggested regret of informing dad about Jay and I.

She sat bedside me and whispered, "Tell me where my son is".

I had a feeling that was what she was going to say. Obviously they don't get it that I don't know where he is. The house was big;3 stories,6 bedroom each has a bathroom but that was an estimate. He couldn't have hide anywhere. Why would he even want to hide anyways? Yes dad wanted to hurt him but I know he wouldn't lay a hand on his dearly beloved son. He loves Shaneka and I think Jacob too. Just upset that I messed around with him. Jacob was just being a coward.

"Hello",said Shaneka. I instantly snapped out of my sister thoughts. "I don't know where he is,but what I do know he's in the house for sure".

Shaneka smile at me. It is more of a crooked smile or fake smile. I really didn't care that much though.

Shaneka and I jumped when we heard dad shout.

"Jacob, what the hell?"shouted dad.

"Don't be too hard on him David",said Shaneka.

"I am calling a family meeting, now and Zamoia you're  sitting with me.",dad instructed and Jacob followed behind while he walked down stairs.

There was an awkward silence and I didn't dear look at Jacob not even a glance although I wanted. I want to forget about this whole thing and kiss him while he runs his finger along my body. The thought alone makes me blush and a smile formed on my face.

"Well amoia, are you and Jacob dating?"asked dad,

Well dad yes and I think I love him. I wanted to say but know better than that.

"Sooooooo".

"Ok dad,Shaneka what exactly you saw",I asked.

"Well,it's not much anyways I was walking to the bathroom when I saw Zamoia pinned to the wall and my son's tongue fighting for entrance in her mouth",explain Shaneka, whose eyes was on me.

"Is that true Zamoia?"asked dad.

"Well dad I don't think -"

"Yes we are dating",Jacob added and I wanted to bitch slap him.

The look on David's face was angry and upset. "When did this happened".

"Dad Jacob is crazy he doesn't know what he's talking about he and I never dated what Shaneka saw was me being forced to kiss him",I said not long looking at Jay who looked pissed. 

"That is bullshit you lying!" he shouted.

" I am not lying,he forced me I couldn't stop him",I stated and dad hugged me.

"Mom she's lying",said Jacob with his eyes full of tears. I couldn't look him in the eye. What I did is wrong and selfish. I really and truly love Jacob but hate when dad is angry at me. I can't take when he's angry at me,I feel horrible. I don't know why I say those words though. I felt so messed up. I can't even explain, ugh. I hate my self for this.

"Well Shaneka,your son has to leave. He is sexually harassing my daughter and he's 18",dad said.

"Where is he going to go?"I asked.

"Shut the hell up because it's all your fault and I don't want you to be concern about me. I want to hit you so hard that you'll go unconscious or maybe die. I f**king hate you bitch ass liar. I hope you rotten oh and I want my necklace back",he said and I almost cried.

Dad was calm through all of this which I know is because he loves Shaneka.

"I want my F**king necklace",he shouted and surprisingly dad high five his face.

Now it was on. Jacob looked dad dead in the eye and punched him in the shoulder. It was a one on one battle and Shaneka sat in the chair crying. "Guys stop,David honey come on stop for me". That didn't stop them.

I ran upstairs and ransacked my room for the necklace. I could hear glass braking and Shaneka still trying to brake them up. I finally found it under the bed.

I ran back down stairs to see the two still fighting. It was kind of hilarious.

"Dad stop!!! please for me",I shouted. He ignored me and I did something ridiculous. I tried to brake up the fight by stepping in the middle. Which was not a good thing Jacob punched me in the stomach and I cried out in agony. The good thing is that dad immediately rushed to my side.

Jacob looked at me then grabbed the necklace out of my hand.
"Mom I love you and I'll call you". He left and we sat in silence. Dad put ice on his black eye and I stared at the door thinking what the hell have I done.

"I hope you're happy because I know Jacob and he wouldn't harm anyone you're just a selfish dad's girl who can't stand to see her father happy. You should have speak  the truth. My baby can be anywhere now. Zamoia I hope you fix this",said Shaneka and she went to give dad a hand.

I collapsed on my bed and cried in the pillow while pity party by Melanie Martinez played in my head. I had no idea why I remembered that song but I did.
