*Victoria's POV*
Lately my parents have been acting weird, but today was very...different.
*FLASHBACK TO FRIDAY NIGHT*
*Andria's POV*
Allen gets out of work at 5pm and it's past midnight! I sent him 20 messages and 16 calls! What is he doing out there, i'm getting worried?! All of a sudden I heard the front door handle shaking, as if someone was opening the door. Then I heard the door slowly open. "Allen is that you!" I screamed loudly and angrily, not thinking about Victoria sleeping. "Crap" I heard Allen say in a whisper. I see his clothes disarranged, hair all messed up, and a faint scent of perfume and alcohol coming from him. "Where were you?!" I scream hearing faint weeping coming from Victoria's room. "I was a work." he says. "Bullcrap."I say in a sternly. I just slap him in the face, knowing that it isn't even half of the pain I feel, while feeling the bitter hurt tears roll down my face. As I got into the bedroom, I closed the door, thinking "Why? Just why? Did the 16 years we've been married meant nothing to you?!" while laying on the bed beginning to weep harder. I could feel the bitter pain tears falling down my face, but with every tear more pain and sadness came over me.
*Victoria's POV*
"Why would Mom and Dad be arguing?" I say to myself as I weep softly. "What should I do? This has never happened before." while millions of ideas, questions, and predictions go through my head. Since Mom and Dad's room is next to mine I could hear Mom crying and whispering things. At that moment I got an idea what if I seek into Mom's room? So I tried my best to find and put on my slippers, got my white cane (walking sticks for the visually impaired), and opened the door slowly and silently. I got to Mom's door, opened it, and closed the door. I could hear rustling as soon as I got in. "Wh..." "Mom?" I say immediately cutting my mom off, I could feel her get calm to the sound of my terrified voice. All of a sudden I felt my mom's arms wrapping around me in a warm embrace with tears falling down. I could tell she was in pain. "Don't worry Mom everything will be alright."
