A Problem

DIANA

"Where's Kiki?" Dad asked. Skye looked at me, as I knew Skye and I had to cover for Kiki.

"Oh dad, Kiki is uh, she's um." Skye said, as I interrupted her.

"In the bathroom! She's taking a shit!" I said, as dad gave me a language warning look.

"Diana don't say that word there's kids around!" Dad said, as I rolled my eyes.

"Whatever!" I said.

"We will talk about that attitude later. Anyways, go get Kiki or else I will get her myself!" Dad said to the both of us, as Skye and I looked at each other.

"We will get her soon Mr. Butler!" Skye said, as dad nodded.

Skye and I were watching out the window, and seeing what was going on between Kiki and Charles.

"Skye, Diana have you seen Kiki? Where is she?" Dad asked, as we quickly shut the curtain. He looked at us suspiciously, crossing his arms.

"I thought I called her a while ago?" Skye quickly said.

"She must be with Charl-

"Charles the bakery owner!" Skye quickly said, covering up for me. Dammit, I almost blew it!

"Okay, what's really going on?" Dad asked. Shit, we needed. Something quick.

After no answer, dad sighed impatiently.

"Fine, then if you don't know, I bet Sophia does. Sophia!" Dad yelled, as I cursed under my breath. Sophia immediately came over to us.

"Yeah Uncle Shay?" She asked.

"Do you know where Kiki is?" Dad asked, as he turned around. Behind him, Skye and I shook our heads rapidly for her not to tell him. Sophia must of noticed this because she looked at us confused.

"Answer the question." Dad said, as Jackie and Lisa came over. Lisa was holding a mini-cake in her hands, not the actual birthday cake.

"What's going on?" Jackie asked. Sophia shrugged, as everyone looked at us.

"Um, well we were just talking." I rambled on. Then, I idea popped into my head. I walked over, and grabbed the cake from Lisa's hands.

"Dad, I'm sorry about this, but we can't tell you where Kiki is." I said, as dad looked angry.

"Why!? Where is Kiki! Tell me now, or else your grounded even more!" Dad said.

"Okay fine! She's outside!" Sophia blurted out.

"Sophia!" Skye and I exclaimed. Jackie and Lisa were watching this, probably confused.

"I'm going to get her! This could of been avoided if you all told me where she was!" Dad said, as Sophia and Skye gave me a scared looked.

We didn't want Kiki to get in trouble.

"Dad no!" I said, as in one move I quickly smashed the cake on dad's face. My eyes widened and my jaw dropped, as I realized what had happened.

By now, everyone at the party was watching this. Everyone gasped at what I had done. Jackie and Lisa started to quietly laugh.

Dad looked shocked as cake fell down from his face.

"Sorry dad." I mumbled.

"Diana!" Mom yelled. I rolled my eyes.

This time, I had to take one for the team. Kiki was going to get caught, so I had to buy time for her to make sure she didn't. But now, dad knows something's up.

Well shit.

"I'm going outside!" Dad yelled, as Skye and I chased after him.

"Dad stop!" I yelled, as all of us ran after dad. He swung open the door, and saw Kiki and Charles on the swings, as he turned even more angry.

"Kiki Butler!" Dad yelled, as Kiki looked up. Charles even looked surprise.

"Who the hell is this!? And you were kissing him without telling us!? Once again, you disrespect us!" Dad exclaimed, as Kiki stood up from the swing set. Skye, Sophia and I were behind dad while mom motioned for everyone to stay inside.

"Dad, calm down!" I yelled, defending my sister.

"Diana, not now." Dad growled, as he turned back to Kiki and Charles.

"Kiki, get inside the house now!" Dad said. He was very annoyed and looked like he was going to explode.

"Dad no!" Kiki yelled taking a stand. I mentally applauded her. You go Kiki, stand up for what you believe in! The three of us intently watched the fight.

"Why were you kissing this little prick!? We don't even know who he is, and your making out with him on the swings the kids swing in!" Dad yelled.

"He's not a fucking prick! His name is Charles and we are dating dad! I didn't want to tell you, because you would be in our business all the fucking time!" Kiki yelled, as us three shared a look.

"Stop using that language. Kiki I'm not playing around, get your ass into the house now!" Dad growled, as Charles stepped protectively in front of Kiki.

"Mr. Butler, stop! She didn't do anything everything was my fault!" Charles said to dad.

"Kid, I want you too leave now before I-"

"Dad! Stop it! Leave him alone! He isn't as horrible as you think! Just stop it!" Kiki yelled at dad, her whole face turning red. I saw some tears spring up in the back of her eyes but she blinked them away.

"Kiki I'm not playing, you are this close to getting grounded until next year." Dad yelled. Why the duck was dad overreacting so much? Dad gave us the parent stare, meaning no one was to mess with him right now.

"I'll go inside, let me just say bye to Charles." Kiki said, as she said a quick goodbye to him. Charles quickly left, as Kiki looked upset and angry.

"Don't give me that look." He said.

"Dad just let it go. Kiki's fourteen, she is going to start dating people." I said. Dad looked to mad to even think straight. Instead, he mumbled something and walked into the house.

"Come into the house." Dad said to everyone, as we followed him
