Lindsay's POV
Another day in school is over. Truth is I never liked school. I’m just going because I have to. My dad was coming to drive me home from school but I got a feeling that something bad and happy the same time was going to happen. We were on the way to home and my dad was drunk as always.I always warned him that he will die because he drinks too much but he says it’s in his life. From the day where my mother left us he is always with a bottle in his hand. He never goes in his work and that’s why he is always fired. Suddenly my father’s screams brought me down to earth.
“Lindsay watch out” He told me and we crashed with another car
***
“I’m fine dad just a little dizzy” I said and I stepped out of the car. He loved me but he never showed it.
The man with the other car stepped out too. It was a woman with him but I was too dizzy to notice her.
But I noticed him. He was the most handsome man I had ever seen. He was tall, he had dark hair and big brown eyes. He was definitely the most beautiful in the world. But he was so angry when he was directing to my father.
“Man, you are drunk and you are driving?. Look what you did to my car”. He said and pointed to his car.
“Hey watch your mouth when you talk to my dad” I Said furiously.
Adam's POV
F*ck! I didn't see the other car coming.My eyes were blurred and I was sunk into my own thoughts about our lives,after my wife left us.The first thought when I realised what was going to happen,was Lindsay.My little girl could die because of my reckless driving.I guess she's right when he yells me that I need to stop drinking.
The other man,was furious.Actually he was a boy.A really young boy and he was driving a Range Rover.Really? A Range Rover? That must have cost him a fortune.
"Man,you're drunk and you're driving? Look what you did to my car." He said and pointed to his car.
Before I could speak,Lindsay defended me from the angry boy. I could understand his anger but that's not how you speak to an elder man. Show at least some respect.Geez.
"Hey,what's your mouth when you talk to my dad." she said furiously.
"Easy kiddo. Your old man distroyed my Range Rover!" he yelled at her.
I couldn't just sit there and watch him talk like that to my little girl. No one talks to her like that. Not even me.She defended me and I'm proud that she doesn't let anyone offend me,even if she knows I made a mistake. But I've got to make things right and let the boy know what he can say and what not.
"You,boy,don't you ever talk to my daughter like that. Got it? I can see that you're not poor. Buying another car is easy for you. The one that should be making complaints,is me." I walked in front of Lindsay.
"It's not about MY car,you..." he trailed off his sentence. "It could have been anyone in my place right now. Why do you even drive while you're drunk?" he shook his head in disappointment.
"It's my life,my choices.Now,get your girlfriend and get the hell out my face and way." I said,grabbing Lindsay in my arms.
The boy didn't say anything. He just called his girlfriends',probably,name and started to walk,while he was calling someone to pick up his car. I was sure I have seen him before. Those eyes were familiar to me. I've seen him somewhere. Television,internet I wasn't sure but I was to find out.
I turned my attention to Lindsay.
"Hey,baby girl,are you alright?" I asked her,concerned.
"I told you I'm fine,dad. You know,I may deffened you but that boy was right. You're putting mine,yours and the other people's lives in danger. Quit drinking,already!" she said angry and made some steps back.
"It's not the place or time to talk about it.Let's just call someone to pick up the car and get a taxi to home." I said and pulled out my phone.
I knew she was right but after my wife left,alchohol was my only company. Lindsay was out with her friends and I couldn't tell her to stay in with me.She's a teenager and has to live her life. So alchohol was my savior. I mean,until now.
The only thing that is now obsessing my mind is the familiar boy. I had to remember where I have seen him before.
