49. Just Like Her

Warning the feels hit me while writing this.

Addison

Being grounded sucks.

You can't do anything.

Talk to anyone.

You get left out of a lot of things and it just sucks.

I walked home from school today not wanting to be bothered by anyone.

It's been a month and I can't take this anymore.

I unlocked the door and dropped my bag.

My dad was downstairs watching tv. He's been so uptight lately.

"Addison get your stuff up from the middle of the floor", I huffed and picked it up.

"I want you to stop giving me attitude all the time", he said.

"I'm not even giving you attitude", I said kinda getting an attitude now.

"Yes you are", he challenged.

"No I'm not", I said. I could feel my eyebrows raising. I do that when I'm mad.

"God your just like your mother", he muttered under his breath.

"Emily isn't my mom", I said for what felt like the one millionth time.

"You weren't supposed to hear that", he said. I started to wonder.   

What the hell is he talking about.

"Dad what are you talking about", I said uneasy.

"What", he said playing dumb.

"You said I'm just like my mother", I said.

"Cmon Addison I have to tell you something", he said leading me outside.

"Um okay", I said.

I say on the porch and out the straw in my caprisun.

"Okay so Addison you know I adopted you when you were two well um the thing is um", he said putting his hands in his face.

"What", I said. I was starting to think he was gonna take me back.

"Don't take me back please", I said tearing up.

"No Addison I just um ugh I've wanted to tell you forever but you've always been to young to understand", he said starting to cry in his hands. I hated seeing him cry.

"What's wrong", I croaked.

"Nothing baby your just so ugh I don't know", he Said playing with my blonde hair.

"What is it", I said losing patience.

"Addison you always talk about you having weird dreams where you see your mom well I wanted to tell you that um how do I say this", he said.

"Why didn't I tell you earlier", he said fighting with himself.

"Dad just tell me", I said.

"Your mom you actual mom was my girlfriend", he said.

"She was your what", I said not believing a word.

"Your mom and I were a couple long before you were even thought of and umm yeah I got her pregnant and her dad well he was in jail and he used to rape her a lot and he hated me", he said. He's gotta be lying.

"And he came after me when he found out I got her pregnant and so we split up I wanted her to keep you safe", he said.

"Her dad had found her when you were 17 days old and he killed her and you were put up for adoption and I tried to findk your for 2 years searching every adoption center", he said.
