"It's him." Veronica whispered. Victoria and I looked at her. Stares at her. She's seems so afraid.

I looked at Kenneth, he's grinning like an addict. "What the hell did you do to the kid!?" I screamed. He laugh hysterically, "Nothing, I just visit her every night in her room." my eyes open widely. Maybe that's the reason why Veronica woke up at the middle of the night and ask is she can sleep with me and Victoria.

"You," Victoria punched him in the face that made his nose broke. He hold up his nose and about to slap Victoria in the face but I got the chance to grab her and ran outside.

I settled Veronica at the backseat. As fast as I could. Victoria settled herself at the frontseat and we immediately drove off. It's only 6 in the evening. Veronica is so quite on the back seat. I watch on my right side and saw Victoria. She's seems so afraid. Scared.

I grabbed her hand and squeeze her hand tightly while I drive. I could feel she stare at my hand, I could feel the heat whenever she stares at me. Her hand is so soft. I wish I could hold this hand until my last breath. And I hope while I'm holding this for the first time, she won't take this away. And she let me hold her hand for the whole ride. I smile idiotically while driving.

"Thank you." she say. I can't help but to smile, "Hey, stop it. You've been thanking me lately." I say while I kept my eyes on the road. "Where are we going?" she ask.

"To my place," I say, "To my secret place." I added. "But before anything else, we're going to fetch your mum at the store."

I've never wanted to be involve in this kind of situation but I choose this. I choose to stand as Veronica's dad. I choose to be in this situation. I know on the back of my mind that there are some consequences and I'm willing to take it for the sake of these girls. I would really find justice to Victoria and now it's easy for me to catch the suspect because Kenneth is Edmund's brother. Kenneth and Edmund is David's cousin.

"Arthur?" I actually like the way she calls me by my name, "Are you alright?" I smiled, glance over her for a while, "I'm fine." I reassured her.

"I'm sorry if you're involved now." she never let go of my hold. I want to hug her right now and tell her she doesn't have to worry, I choose this and there's no one who can blame her. I squeeze her hand even tighter. I pulled back. Stared at the steering wheel for a while then I hug her tightly. I know her daughter is at the back but I don't care instead I want her to see that not all boys are bad. That some boys are willing to accept someone no matter what happened to their past.

She cried even more. "Hey, don't cry in front of your daughter. She might think I'm hurting you." I lift her chin up. Her eyes are red, "Hey, stop it." I wipe her tears. Stared at her eyes then suddenly kiss her forehead and she didn't stop me.

I settled myself back on my seat. Shocked of what I did to her. She didn't stop me from kissing her.

I check Veronica before I started the engine back. The ride was quite. Victoria stared at the window. Why did I do that? I want to slap myself for kissing her but it's just her forehead. There's nothing wrong with that. Kissing on the forehead is just a sign of respect.

"We're here." Victoria screamed. Exit first and get Veronica at the backseat. I know what I did and I understand why Victoria is ignoring me after I kissed her. I should ask for forgiveness. I honestly don't know why I did that. I just want to comfort her but I guess I made her upset.

I followed the two inside and I saw Mrs. Adamson. She seems so very busy with her business.

"Mum, we need to go." Victoria grab her hand.

"But-"

"No more buts, lets go." Mrs. Adams is so confused what's happening around her.

I called all the attentions of the customer even the crews, "People," I stared at Victoria for awhile. She give me a warning glare but I ignore it, instead I followed my mind, "Please if some lad is gonna ask where Mrs. Adams went just tell the lad that she went into a vacation and you," I point one of her crew, "Take care of the store for," I paused, "While Mrs. Adams is on her vacation." and I left a cash on the table for the crew. "Thank you." then I exit together with them.

Mrs. Adams settled herself at the backseat with Veronica and Victoria at the front seat.

"What was that!?" she's furious.

"I just did what is right, Victoria."

"You think it was the right!? Really, Arthur?" I want to see this side of her.

"Would you calm yourself, Victoria. Well, if it wasn't the right thing to do, then what should I do?" I remain calm. I don't want to raise my voice at her. Never.

She remain silent, trying to process what I just said. Her hand is on her lap and I get it from her and squeeze it again. I still don't care if her daughter or her mother was at the backseat and the witness of what I just did to her. On how I get her hand and squeeze it.

We arrived the place exactly 9 in the evening. I brought them to my house. Yes, I brought my own house where no one lives and now I got these people to live with me here.

"Starting tonight, these will be also be your home." I stated.
