Chapter 16

Avalina P.O.V

My phone rang next to me waking me up from my sleep.

I removed miguels arms off me as I answered.

Me:hello

Nancy:uh um lina....we uh have a problem

Me:what's wrong

Nancy:i-it's your d-dad

I immediately hung up and jumped out of bed.

I wore miguels t-shirt which was covering my pj shorts.

"Hey babe what's wrong?"Miguel asked as he yawned and stretched

"I need to get home...my dad's in trouble"I said as I grabbed a small bag and started throwing in some clothes.

"Oh shit...I'll take you"he got out of bed and flicked the lights on.

I squinted as my eyes took a while to get use to the bright light.

He took another t-shirt and wore his sweats.

We got down stairs and got out the house.

I got in the car first and I couldn't sit still.

My leg kept bouncing up and down...I needed to see my father.

Miguel got out the drive way and began driving on the main road.

It took us an hour to get back to my old house.

I opened the door and found Nancy pacing up and down...her eyes blood shot red,her hair a mess and a huge blood stain on the carpet.

"What happend to my father?"I asked hoping the blood on the carpet doesn't belong to him.

"He uh um...He was shot"she said

"By who?!"I asked and yelled.

"We don't know...one minute his walking into the living room the next the window breaks and his on the floor bleeding"she said

"Where is he and everybody else?"I asked trying to keep strong.

"At the hospital...I waited for you here"she said

"Thank you"I said before I gave her a bear hug.

"Um...lina You might wanna come see this"Miguel said as he stood outside by the broken window.

Nancy and I went outside and migule picked up a envelope that had my name on it.

I took it and opened it.

Dear avalina

I'm sorry for hurting you the way I did.

You are my only daughter and I love you very much.

Please forgive me and come back home.

Love dad

I blinked the tears that threatened to fall away.

"Can we go to hospital please?"I asked

Miguel nodded before he kissed my forehead.

Nancy got in the back of the mustang.

And Miguel and I sat in the front.

The entire time on our way to the hospital it was dead quiet in the car.

Not a single one of us wanting to speak.

I felt terrible for leaving my father like that.

I shouldn't have such an ungrateful child..my father went through ally just so that I can have a good life.
