Cassie
I thanked Chresantofor dropping me off at Chris' house before I walked inside and went upstairs to his room. He was sound asleep in his bed like nothing happened the other day. I didn't want to wake him so I just left out and walked in my room, which was still in one piece. I grabbed me a t-shirt and leggings and took me a shower.
when I finished my shower I put my hair in a high bun and washed my face. I got out the bathroom and went downstairs to grab something to eat. I looked in the fridge and grabbed some of Chris's takeout, he dosent eat leftovers anyways.
I heated it in the microwave and ate my food. I pulled out my phone and I decided to call my father, who I haven't talked to in years. I don't know what made me just decide to call him but I did it anyways. I know he's mad at me for not coming to the thanksgiving dinner, but it won't be the first family gathering i've missed.
I dialed his number and let it ring
???: Auburn Residence how may I help you?
I twisted my face up, What type of shit is this?
Cassie: Um, Hey, this is Cassie-Casidelle Auburn, I'm calling to speak with my uhh dad......
I cringed at my first name, I hated it. The only person who knew my real first name was Chris.
???: Okay Ma'am, I'm assuming that you're referring to Mr.Auburn.
Cassie: Uh, yeah....Yes that's him.
???: Okay Ms, Mr.Auburn will be with you shortly.
I rolled my eyes at how proper she was and waited for him to come to the phone
George (Cassie's Dad): Casidelle?
I silently gagged to myself, what type of name is that? They claim they're so smart and proper but didn't have enough sense to name me something half decent.
Cassie: H-hey dad.
George: Your mother and I were expecting you last week, she's very upset that you couldn't make it.
Cassie: I had other plans.
I spoke dryly
George: Are you still living with that boy?
I rolled my eyes, he was referring to Cario.
Cassie: No, I'm staying with Chris, you remember Chris. Right?
George: Christopher, the one with the baby?
My dad used to like Chris, until he found out he had a baby. My dad dosent believe in sex before marriage.
Cassie: Yeah, That's him.
George: Ahh, You Know he could've had something better out of life, if he never got that woman pregnant.
I scoffed
Cassie: I think he has all he wants now. He has a beautiful daughter and he just got a record deal.
I said standing up for Chris
George: A record deal? That's not a real occupation or job. Speaking of jobs, how's things going at the hospital, if that's one satisfactory thing you've done in your life.
Cassie: Better than ever, things are great.
I lied
George: Who is that on the telephone George?
Someone in the background questioned, I think it's my mom.
???: Who is this?
It obviously wasn't my dad on the phone anymore. It was my mother.
Cassie: Hey Mama
I heard her scoff in the background.
Venessa(Cassie mom): enough said, get this phone away from me.
I assumed she told my dad.
George: Hello
Cassie: You know what I'm going to go....
I said hanging up, they look at me as such a disappointment. I could never have a conversation without them making me feel worthless.
I let the tears that were brimming fall and quickly wiped them away. "Why are you crying Cassie?" someone asked making me jump. I turned around to see Chris, with his head deep into a cabinet. "How long have you been down here?" he pulled a bottle of dark liquor out. "Don't ignore my question." he said, drinking straight from the bottle. "I'm not crying." I mumbled.
He chuckled sarcastically, "I guess we lie to each other now. I should be the one crying, I found out about my, unborn child." he said sitting at the tabl. "I know."
"I don't think I want the deal anymore." he shook his head, drinking the liquor as if it was water. I shook my head, "Your flying down there." he cocked his head at me. "You think working at the bar is going to provide you your whole life. I hate to break it to you but it's not and you have a daughter, a living one at that, that you still need to provide for." I snapped.
"You don't know how it feels, to lose a child." he grumbled, I narrowed my eyes at him. "I dont?" He nodded, "No you don't."
"I dont?!" I repeated. I stood up from the table.
"I lost two of my goddamn children!" I said, starting to cry. "I was getting read to have twins, twins!" I sobbed. "And he beat me, he killed our babies!" I yelled at him, he sat there looking me straight in my eyes, I never had told him that. I never told anyone that.
"He killed our babies, Cario did that." He ran a hand down his face, "Im sorry Cassie, I didn't know." he said lowly.
"And on top of that, he got another bitch pregnant! And he didn't beat her, she kept her baby! And he helped take care of it and I was stupid enough to stick around!" I said crying harder. He stood up and tried to hug me but I snatched away. "Your going fly to Florida, not for me, but for you and your daughter." I said before walking away.
