*The less you know, the better*

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Mom!?" I yell in an insecured state. I didn't know wether to be happy, sad, angrily or
just down right done with life. She's alive!? B-But how? We were hit by a car, dad told me that she died.

I curse under my breath and Reid walks up beside me. "Hey darling. Um-Happy Birthday." She says, gritted through her teeth. Is it so tough too say?

I want to say to 'leave and never come back', but that would be rude. But I have my points, she never did come back to get me.

"I-I-" I stutter. "What are you doing here?" I swallow my anger from coming up.

"I saw that you were on the news."

"The news?" I look over at Reid. He gives me a guilty look and looks away.

"Most likely." I said. "What do you want?"

"May I come in?"

"Until I get a reason!" I immensely; angrily bite back. Reid hits my shoulder and opens the door.

"You can come in." He says and my mother nods. I roll my eyes and made my way towards the kitchen. Reid follows me in.

"What's your problem?" He ask me.

"You can't be serious Reid!" I whisper to him. Making sure she didn't hear me. "Do I have to explain myself again?" I plead in a whispering manner.

"Be nice to your mother." He snarls.

I slam the cup down. "Is-Is this a joke or something! Because I am literally laughing inside! Do you not understand what's it like to be afraid? To go home? Wearing long sleeves shirts to school in the middle of August and hope nobody gets suspicious?"

"A little. Be lucky you have a mother or just parents in general."

"Reid! Lucky? I'm not lucky! At least you have a mom who can think straight! Parents? Spencer, my dad tried to kill me! I wouldn't be surprise if my mom pulls a gun on me right now!"

He turns and mutter something under his breath. I groan as I put the tea bag in the hot water. He leaves me with my questions.

How come she didn't come sooner? How come you didn't save me? How come you didn't stop him?!

I walk back towards the living room with the cup of tea, growling. I put a reasonable 'happy smile' on my face to hinder the fact that I am about to die inside. I hand her the cup and put a smile on my face even though I didn't want to.

"I'm soooo-glad to see you." I mumble under my breath.

She nods and takes the tea from my hand. I turn and sit on the love seat by the tv.

I try to say something but she ends up cutting me off. "I know, I know, I'm horrible."

You can say that again! " I left because I didn't want you to turn out like me or him." She states.

"What you gonna say, you ain't running games? I can't be believe it-every word!" I say.

Anger flushes through me and I take a deep breath. "What you two did as parents is explicitly uncalled for. I don't know if you notice but I almost died in the hands of my own father!"
