Practically Daddy [COMPLETE]

Chapter 5

We were driving for a few minutes on the highway, and there was a lot of traffic. "Ugh what is making all of this traffic" I said.

"I don't know, but it's annoying the hell out of me. In the meantime, tell me a little more about yourself" Sal said.

I wasn't that comfortable telling people about myself. I don't want to be judged. Then he made a hand motion telling me to speak. "Okay" I said. "Well I'm a freshman in high school. I hate people and pretty much everything except for dogs."

He laughed at that one. "Wait, so what school are you going to go to now?"

"Oh. I didn't think about that. You went to Monsignor Farrell, right?"

"Yup" he said.

"And they have a sister school?"

He nodded.

"So...How about there?" I asked shyly.

"It's a ten minute drive from my house, but do you really want to be in an all girls school?"

"No not really. But I'll deal. Plus you won't have as much boy drama to deal with if I go there."

"Haha. True" he said.

The car started moving up and we saw what was causing the traffic. There was a car accident. I saw a woman, a man, and young boy being carried into body bags. I started tearing up because I thought of my parents and brother. Sal did also, I guess he was really sensitive about these things.

We arrived at is house ten minutes after we saw the accident. His house was pretty small on the outside, but big on the inside. Once I walked in, I took off my shoes and he said "You already know me, hun."

I didn't say anything back, I just wanted to take in that I was in Sal Vulcano's house!

Sal went into the kitchen. He asked me if I was hungry, and I told him I was. He said there was a great Chinese food place a few blocks away, and that we can have food delivered. "Great!" I said.

"Okay so what do you want to order?"

"I'll have sesame chicken and white rice."

He went into the kitchen ordered all of our food. He then said that he would go outside to pick it up. Sal told me to stay here and look around the house.

He left. I went around the kitchen. It was so neat. Well it was Sal. The living room had white couches and a bunch of pillows. I wanted to go upstairs, but I didn't feel too comfortable yet. I just sat on the couch and played with his Rubix Cube. Having no phone is really hard.

I heard footsteps upstairs. I shivered. Who was here? I wondered if I should go up. I stayed in the living room. I kept hearing footsteps. I could hear them getting closer and closer. I put down the Rubix Cube. I saw feet. I stood there, frozen in fear and shock. The person had really big feet. They weren't the prettiest feet. I was pretty sure this was a man.

He came downstairs and screamed. I also screamed. I didn't scream because I was scared, I screamed because he screamed. Another reason I screamed was finding out that the man was Brian Quinn.
