Chapter Twenty-Five

There we were now here we are
All this confusion nothings the same to me

Rhi's P.O.V

I knocked on the door to Mom and Stevie's house. They had no idea I was home, it would be a complete surprise. A middle aged man in glasses appeared at the door.

"How can I help you miss?" The man ask in this thick accent.

"Are Mara and Stephanie home?"

"You must be Rhiannon I hear so much about." The man says with a grin. Who was this man and why was he in my family's home?

"Yes, I am. But, who are you, sir?"

"Walter your moms husband." My jaw drops. No one told me about this. I had been a good six months since I talked to them, but a phone call would have been nice.

"Husband? Since when?" I questioned.

"About six months, love." My skin crawled. I already hated this man.

"Are they home?" I was cutting right the chase. I just wanted to see my family, not have small talk with this creepy man who probably wanted me to call him Dad.

"Just Mara. Would you like to come in?"

"Yes, I would like to see my mother."

"Very well, dear." He chirped as he motioned for me to come in. The house was oddly different. It was cleaner now and smelled nothing like it used to.

"Mara there is someone here to see you." Walter announces as we walk up the hall to the living room.

"Who is it?" She shouts. I walk in to the room. She doesn't look up from her knitting. At least mom stayed crafty after all these years.

"It is me Mom." Mom looks up and drops her knitting to the floor as she sees me.

"Rhiannon. What are you doing back?" She ask awkwardly.

"I came home. I am done with America. Done with collage, done with Eli."

"You mean you left everything behind?" I could see a bit of anger in her eyes.

"Yes, mom. I did. It wasn't working out there."

"But, you threw away all your dreams."

"No, not really."

"You were so happy. I hate to see you throw that all way."

"No, mom. I wasn't. I am happy here. Happy with Noel and Liam."

"You mean those hooligans." She barks.

"It has seriously been two years mom and your still all upset about that?"

"I told you to never come back that one time right?" I think back to after she found me and Liam that one time after we first had sex. She told me to never come back then. I guess that still stood with her.

"I thought you were over that."

"No, I am not."

"Fine, I come back to see my mother and I get the cold shoulder." I was really mad. I felt tears well up in my eyes. I wasn't gonna cry in-front of her. All I got was a blank stare. Me and mom used to be close, but then after we moved here she changed somehow. I still loved her. I always would, but I wish she would be the mother she once was.

"Where is Stevie?" I asked as my voice cracked.

"She moved to London months ago." Mom shrugged like it didn't matter to her.
