Not good enough

10. It won't be over.

Thursday 7pm

*RECAP*

"Mom?Jem?Carl?"

"He..." my mother began.

I looked outside, and saw my abusive dad outside the gates.

"SHIT!"

I locked the doors and ran around the house to make sure all the windows and doors were locked . When I see that they were all securly closed then I come back where everyone was , and Jake handed them water .

"Why the hell is he outside ?" I say in utter shock."With a ... KNIFE?" I add yelling 'knife'.

"Jem you tell the story , you seem more calm ." Carl tells Jem and then she lookes at me .

" We were just having dinner right , and then all of a sudden we hear this knock on the door and it was your dad, so I went to open it and he wanted to talk to my mom, so then I asked mom and she said no, then I told him ,that is was really bad timing... then he barged in and pulled out a gun-" I cut her off

" but he ha-" then she cut me off

"Let me finish, then he started saying things like ' You left me for this guy?' and " is this your daughter?' and then I distracted him and then my dad took the gun away from him and told him to leave , he didn't listen so my dad shot him in the leg and that was when we could escape but then he blocked my path way and mom got out first. " she tells me , waiting for a reply , but then she carries on

"But then he mentioned something about you " She adds pointing at Jake ." He said that you were the cause of Lisa leaving , I realised he was drunk , So I tricked him into thinking he she was in the bathroom and he believed me , he went inside , and I locked the door and Me and dad made a run for it , but he caught up with us somehow and now we're here, and he is outside" she finshed off , leaving me breathless.

Jake is in danger , if my dad thinks its his fault , he is going to go for Jake , I can't let anything happen to him. A few minutes later I decide to check outside but now he was gone , I called the police and told them about my father, from his abusive ways to the point where he almost tried to kill everyone.

The police told me that if we see him again , we must give them a call , and if they spot him they will arrest him as soon as possible. It made me feel relieved but then a thought came to my mind ...

" Hey wait a minute , what the hell was he doing with a knife if he had a gun threatning you?" I ask her , something she didn't clear out that why he had a fricking knife .

" Oh yeah , he dropped the gun before he went into the bathroom , then my dad took it , then he must've grabbed a knife from the kitchen." She tells me while the dad holds the gun up.

" Shit , this is insane , I'm so scared , what if he is now after you guys and Jake , and now he is going to kill us all . He told me he will kill me , now he will kill me and you guys." I state walking up and down

" Calm down Lisa , the police wil take care of this and I won't let him lay a single finger on you, I promise you that " Jake assures me taking a step forward next to me .

"I promise too" Carl said after.

" I promise too" My mother joined in

" I promise too" Jem carried on .

" Guys no, thank you but you can all be in danger too, that man is sick and he can hurt us all." I tell them , warning them with my infomation.

" We know sweetie but I can't lose you again." My mother walks towards me.

" What do we do now?" Jem asks making everyone think.

"You guys can stay here for as long as you need to , if he is out there we can wait for the police to get them, we all should be safe here." I offer them to stay over and they all nod , heading towards the kitchen.

" Okay ,Mom , Carl , you take the guest room an-"

" I can sleep on the couch, Jem you can sleep with Lisa in the main bedroom" Jake suggests and we take it .

" Are you sure you will be comfy on the couch?" I ask him with concern.

" Yeah , I'll be fine , I promise ." I kiss his cheek and walk upstairs to get everyone a blanket and an extra pillow.

And with that everyone went to bed, and So did I .

I'm scared , I know the things that my father has done to me , and I'm worried he will do it again.

I won't let him, No , not this time.
