The Hate and Love Game

Game #119

GABRIELLA POV

I walked in the daycare with Chresanto to pick up the kids. We walked to the front desk. "Hello." I said leaning on the counter. She smiled. "Hello." she said. "We're here to pick up the August's." Chresanto said. She looked at the sign in sheet. "Mr. and Mrs. August, you dropped off Crystal, Christina, Trey, and Chris?" she asked us. I wrinkled up my face. Why did she have to ask. Of course we did. "Yes, that's right.  May I ask why you're asking that?" Chres asked. Before she could answer, I saw Chris walk in with a woman pointing at us and nodding his head. It like he was crying. I looked back at the lady. "Where is Ms. Michelle? I want to talk to her right now. Why the hell is he crying!?" I asked the woman getting louder. "Excuse me miss, but you are going to have to calm down, and watch you language." she told me. "I am sick and tired of people telling me to calm down. You just asked us if we were the ones to drop our kids off, and then he walks in the room with red eyes and he is telling the lady something. I want to talk to Ms. Michelle right now." I demanded. Chres put his arm around me, and Ms. Michelle walked in the room with Crystal, Chris, and Christina. I ran up to her. "What's going on." I asked her. Christina and Chris ran up to me, and Chresanto hugging us. She sighed. "Apparently, some people came earlier claiming that the kids were there's. A woman and a man." she told me. "Can you describe what they looked like?" Chres asked her. She shook her head. I felt tears in my eyes and I fell to the ground. Chres held me in his arms. "It's going to be okay." he said. I shook my head. "No it's not. I thought it was only one person, but its two. They just got out kids involved and its not going to be okay." I said. I already knew who it was. Well, sort of. It was the note writer I know that much. But it's not going to be okay if my kids are involved now. They aren't safe if that's the case and it breaks my heart we just can't be a normal family. If they aren't safe now, I have to take them somewhere till it is. Like, Chresanto's mom. She's the only one we can go to when it comes to the kids. I wiped my tears away, and sat up. "We're taking them to your mom." I said getting up. He got up too. "Are you sure?" He asked. "Yes baby, I am sure." I said quickly. He stood there a moment, then got the kids together. "Thank you for telling me that." I said to Michelle. She nodded her head. "But to be clear, you didn't know these people or you didn't tell anyone to pick them up?" she said. I shook my head. "No, and that's why it scares me to death." I said tearing up again. She looked down. "Well, thank you for telling me. And I promise you, after this day we will have locks and codes put on the door." She said. "That should've been your first thought." I said walking away. I got Crystal ready and all her stuff together. We won't be coming back here anytime soon, till I feel like it's okay to come back. And, when these people will leave us alone. I am tired of going through this all the time. I've been stressed out ever since I was Ariana that one day, but I still manage to get by. I helped them all in the car, and we went back home. When we got to the house, I immediately started packing there stuff up. I want my kids to feel safe. I need them to be safe, and not bothered by strangers. I have to say, I am really angry inside, but I don't want to let it out because someone might tell me to calm down again, or I am acting weird. Am I going crazy or something because the safety of my family is in jeopardy? I don't think so, and for my own husband to tell me to calm sometimes will set it off. We packed their bags up, and put them in the car. "Why are we leaving?" Christina asked. "Just for a few days, till I know it is okay for you guys to come back home." I said looking at her. She hugged me. I smiled, then kissed her cheek. We drove to his moms house, and knocked on the door. She smiled at all of us. "Well it's been a while since I had the whole family over here? How are you guys?" she said giving Trey a hug. He smiled hugging her back. "We're not okay actually." Chresanto said avoiding eye contact with her. She wrinkled up her face looking at him. "Come in." she told us. We all walked in setting their bags on the ground. The kids went to watch television, and me, Chres and his mom sat at the table.

CHRESANTO POV

Things have been crazy lately. I'm tired of this shit just as much as Gabriella is. I am just trying to keep calm, and not get angry because I remember what happened when I got angry last time. At this point I do think it is Ariana who's writing these notes. But if it is her, she messed with my kids now and that is a no no. I think Ella did have a good point to taking the kids here though. I guess them staying at our house and daycare isn't the best thing right now. I am determined to find out who is doing this, and get them locked behind bars not just because of the notes, but stalking, threatening us, and now attempt of kidnapping 4 little kids. It makes me sick to my stomach someone would even want to try and pull that off. But what really makes me mad, is that it might be 2 people behind all this now. "What's going on?" My mother asked me and Ella. It was a moment of silence for a minute. "Something, is going on at our house and I don't think the kids should stay there right now."  I said breaking the silence between us all. "Well, what's going on?" she asked. Nobody said anything. At least me and Gabriella didn't. It isn't that easy telling someone this. Not even my mom. Its embarrassing and crazy at the same time. "I'm shocked about you two. You both used to tell me everything. Grown ups now, you're still hiding stuff." she said laughing a little. "It's not that easy to tell someone this!" I yelled. She looked at me for a moment. "It really isn't." Ella said shaking her head. I grabbed her hand, and rubbed it. "You'll have to tell me sometime. Why not now?" she asked. I sighed. "The kids are here, because someone tried to pick them up from daycare today claiming that they were theres." I blurted out. "And, someone has been writing notes. About dad, and killing me next." I said. My eyes started watering. Ella looked up at me. The first time she has since we sat down. "What about you dad?" she asked me. "How, they know how he was killed and what he was killed with." I said quietly. She sighed. "I can just tell you..." she said. Me and Gabriella both looked at her. "You know?" I said standing up. She looked up at me like she was scared. "Chresanto, you were too young to know before. The conversation about your dads death never came up anyway." she told me. "What do you mean I was too young? He died when I was 9! The conversation never came up because every time I brought up his fuckin name, you'd breakdown!" I yelled at her. Her eyes started watering. "Well what did you expect me to do Chresanto!? Smile, and move on with my life? Your dad was my husband and it was a tragedy when he died." "You still could've told me who killed him! But no, I have to sit on my ass and try to figure out who the fuck is writing the notes to force them to tell me about my dad when I could've asked you!" I yelled. I was angry at her. She started crying. I felt Ella gently put her arm around mine. "Go to the car..." she whispered in my ear. I hesitated, but did as she said and walked away. I couldn't believe her. I don't even want my mom to tell me what happened to him. I want to find out on my own. I waited patiently, when Gabriella finally got in the car. "I'm sorry..." She said softly. I looked at her. "For what?" I asked. "I didn't mean for the conversation to turn into a argument like that. And Chresanto, you were cussing at your mom." she said looking at me. I chuckled. "I had the right too. She pissed me the fuck off, and you didn't even do anything so don't say sorry." "I understand you were angry, but you had her in tears." she said. "And what about your mom? Huh Gabriella? You cussed at your mom and she was in tears." I said looking at her. "That's another story and you know that. But, your mom loves you baby. She got to watch you grow up while my mom got to watch me get beaten and sit in a jail cell." she said shedding a few tears. "Baby I-GCO." "Your mad I know. I'll just wait till you cool down..." she said starting the car. Of course, she won this one.

Hoped you liked this chapter. And ask yourself questions.....Okay that sounds weird. What I meant was, think about what is going to happen next. Yeah :)
