Sorry for the long wait. Here's your update.
When we got home, I was shocked to see that dad still hasn't come home yet, but then again it was still early compared to the time he normally gets home. The alpha had sent some people to drop us home, jade came with us to and said goodbye to Katie, who woke up a few minutes after we got home. There was a small ache in my chest after jade left, but I ignored it and went inside with Katie. Knowing thwtvdad wouldn't be home for a long time I didn't bother making dinner for him, I made pasta and meatballs forkatie and I then watched some TV since she wasn't tired after her long nap.
It was about midnight when Katie finally fell asleep, I was surprised that dad still hasn't come home yet. After taking Katie to bed, I cleaned up the place and locked the house up tight, I was positive that dad was going to stay out for the entire night.
I got up after 5 hours restless sleep, something didn't feel right, I just don't know what it is. I went to Katie's room,
She's still asleep.
I went to my dad's room, the door was opened slightly, I pushed open the door, "hey dad-"
JADE'S POV
"OH MY GOSH!!!!" seriously, I can't believe he walked in on me, I was having the time of my life and he ruined it, "what are you doing!!?" "Its not what it looks like!!!!" I shouted, dashing off of the bed to tackle him before he had the chance to leave.
"GET OFF OF ME" he shouted, "NEVER, ILL NEVER LET GO!!" I shouted right back, he jumped up and began running away from the room with me on his back holding on for dear life.
PETER'S POV
I was kneeling in the middle of what used to be my dad's bedroom, it was now barren of all his clothes and belongings, my face was damp with tears and I couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation for dad's absence.
I got up and dried my face with the T-shirt I was wearing, then went downstairs to make breakfast for Katie (I wasn't in the mood to eat) after making twelve pancakes with strawberry syrup, with bacon, eggs and some OJ, I sat at the dinning table, staring at the fridge for no reason, Katie would be awake soon. I was about to get up when something on the fridge caught my attention.
A note.
I ran over to the fridge and snatched the note that was taped to the fridge, how could miss this? I unwrapped the paper and read the note.
I'm sorry son but this had to be done (ha that rhymed!!) I can no longer support you and your sister. I lost my job today and I know it maybe tough for you to deal with this, but you've been taking care of both me and Katie for the past month without even knowing it. The truth is ,
You'll do a much better job at taking care of her than I ever will, I'm only a waste of resources. You make a lot of money with that talent of yours and you'll make a lot more in the future. In truth I can't get over the fact that your mother died.
As for me, well, don't worry about your old man, I'll try and get a better job and a better start else where and when I do, I'll come back for the both of you so that we'll live a better life together. But for now, take care of yourself and your sister.
Love you both, goodbye, but not forever.
Dad.
P. S. I left you all of your mother's money in the bank, get it to pay for school stuff, using the code 1605.
I hammered the note unto the table, denting the it in the process. The squeal from behind made me turn around, a very scared Katie was standing in front of me squeezing the life out of the pink stuffed teddy I won her at the park. I walked up to her trembling figure and pulled her into a hug.
"Hey, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." I whispered in hear ear as I rubbed her back, her tiny arms wrapped around my waist as sobs racked her tiny frame, "d-d-daddy's g-gone," my heart broke "I c-can't find h-him anyw-where." More sobs racked her body as she cried in my arms.
What kind of father is he!!!
I wish I knew, Rayne, I wish I knew.
Ugh! Well he's no father of mine, after everything Katie's been through. And now he just suddenly decides that he can't take it anymore!!!??
I let him continue his ranting in my head while I calmed Katie down. She had stopped crying and was only hiccupping softly.
"Hey, look at me" I held her chin and looked her in the eyes, "we'll be alright, OK? Don't worry." I wish that was true.
Right now I don't feel anything, nothing but hate and more hate to the coward that left his grieving daughter and son to fend for themselves.
I wiped away the rest of her tears and took her to the dining table for breakfast.
"Mmmm, I like pancakes" she drowned her first pancake in syrup, then she looked up at me, "why aren't you eating?" I moved away from the door frame and sat by the table not touching anything.
"Nah, I'm good"
My stomach chose that time to start growling, "yes you are so eat! Now!" She all but shouted at me, so I yielded to her wishes and ate.
"Hey Katie?" She looked up at me, "we're going to Jade's house soon OK? She'll be passing by in a while." She squealed then flew upstairs, breakfast all forgotten. I got up and put away the leftovers for when we got back.
Jade came at 6:30 with a driver to pick us up.
The ride was only 20 mins, so I had an extra 10 to spear. So I took that time to let Jade show me where I was going to be training, the place was huge! A large plain field filled with men and women and wolves, all battling it out on the field, or learning new moves, running, you name it. And they were training hard.
And here I thought we were going to the gym!
I am starting to get into writing my first book for people to criticize soooo do your worst.
