"Mr.Drakeford open up."

"No I won't let you take me!"

"It's me, Jenna. The women from the lie detected reaults."

I look through the hole in the door and yep it's her. Woah woah do I look okay. I smell good. Check. Breath ? Yep all good. I open the door and brush my hair back with my hand.

"We'll hello there. Jenna."

"Hey Mr. Drakeford, haven't seen you in a while. Thought you were in jail?"

" nope I escap.... I got let out early."

"Hmm strange. Want to take a walk with me in the park?"

"Yeah let me put on some shoes."

I rush upstairs to get some shoes and quickly head back down. This day is going amazing.

I step out side and notice all these cops around my house. All of them pointing there guns at me.

" YOU SET ME UP!"

" That's what you get for breaking the law"

" TO THINK I ACTUALLY HAD FEELINGS FOR FOR YOU. MY HEART WAS FOOLED. I should've listened to my mind instead of my heart !"

I wish I could've took that back because when I stared into her eyes I know I hurt her.

--- Audrey ---

Well , they took my dad again. For the second time. He won't explain why to me. I just wish I understood.

Why did he want me to pack.. What did she mean by ' breaking the law' .. Now to think of it what happened to my mom. I never asked. And why don't I look like my father.

I sat and all these questions just kept running through my head.

I ran upstairs and searched for some information. Anything could help right now.

I looked in the attic, there was nothing . Nothing in the bathrooms. Nothing in my room. But my fathers room was locked...

I ran downstairs to get a knife from the kitchen and unlocked his door.

I looked everywhere. Under his bed , in the closet, his cabinets , shelves but once again found nothing.

I looked into the closet again. But I missed something huge. When I looked up there was a shelf. I climbed up and saw a book up there. I take it down and read the cover. ' My Journal'

Ha my dad kept a journal.

I sat on his bed and slowly started reading each page. Word for word, not wanting to miss a sentence.

I can't believe this. I couldn't believe my eyes. What they were seeing. What... How.. Really... I ... I can't even put it into words right now .

I know everything now... But all I could ask myself was why.

~~

I go to visit my father in prison.

He's sitting right infront of me as if everything was okay.

" hi dad."

"Audrey! How are you? Is everything okay?"

"Dad is there something you aren't telling me?"

I could see him getting a little choked up.

" no .. Why" he replied.

"Okay then dad , I'll do all the talking."

"Go ahead."

I took out the journal. His eyes widened to about the size of an apple.

" see this right here ' dad'? I read it word for word. Every single page. I read everything. I wish it was a lie. But now it's all making sense to me. My mother ? You killed her. You took me. That's why I don't look like you. That's why I never met my mother. You stole me. Yet you have the nerve to call me your daughter?"

" Audrey look I can explain."

"Please do "

" I took you cause I wanted a daughter of my own. And when I saw your mother I knew you'd be a perfect child. I had to kill her. She would've never let me have you. You mean everything to me Audrey. How can I not call you my daughter?"

"YOUR NOT MY FATHER!"

" Yes Audrey I am. I took you. I raised you as the daughter I always wanted. Your perfect."

"No. Your not my father. You killed my mother. You are no longer something that matters to me. You ruined my life and my future. I have no mother to go to when I need her. And no one to help me with my troubles. Why'd you choose me. There's a million baby's born each day and you decided to take me and kill my mother."

"Audrey I --"

"I don't wanna hear it."

I stood up and headed for the door.

" Audrey !!"

I never looked back. I should've known this all along. Guess it's time for me to go and try to forget this all. To find a real family. Someone who won't hurt me.
