Mr. Cinder -slow updates-

Chapter 11

Nothing could've prepared me for this. I always believed and that my father was an only child. He never talked about a sibling, never talked about his family actually. His parents died before I was even born. My mom was an only child. But I didn't know much about my dad.

I was pulled from my thoughts my a small chuckle, "Yes, your father was my brother. I'm. It surprised that he didn't tell you, he was ashamed of our family..." the voice drifted off, it souned fake as if I was dreaming. I looked up to see the woman staring at me. I gussed she was the one talking. I looked at her, not really seeing her. She was clear but the moment seemed foggy. As if it wasn't real. I couldn't help but stumble a little. I felt an arm go around my waist
I looked up and saw that it was Ana. She had a worried expression on her face. I just looked at her for a while. Not knowing what to do. She finally helped me stand and moved away a little. Not to far as if she was scared that I would fall again. I took comfort in that.

I looked at the couple and thats when I saw it, the features of the woman matched the features of my father, just softer and more womanly. I didn't know why but I felt like hugging her, I wanted to burry my head and cry, tell her everything that had happned. Have her take me away and keep me safe. Like my father would do.

He would always take me to a safe place, even though that safe place was his office under his desk. He would sit on his chair and look at me with so much love in his eyes. He would laugh everytime and tell him his feet were stinky and I couldn't breath. It was one of the best memories i had with him.

I blinked a few times then looked at the lady. "Are you really his sister, or are you some creep who likes to collect children?" my voice sounded distant, I didnt even mean to say that. I heard her chuckle, "Yes Im his sister, he was born December 20th 1987, he died when he was 29." her voice was soft and full of sadness.

"Why didn't he ever mention you?" my voice still distant. Her face grew sadder, "He never accepted the fact that I loved another girl." she looked right at me, I was even more confused, "You have a husband." I stated. I pointed to the man sitting next to her. "He's not my husband. He's the sperm doner of my kids, he's here because I needed a friend." the guy started to look a little uncomfortable.

I gave him a small smile, I started to feel extremely bad, "I'm sorry sir."  He gave me a small smile, "No worries." just then the small girl ran up to him and jumped in his lap, "Papa I'm sleepy"  her voice proving that she really was. "I'd better take them home, Jackson lets grab our things okay?"  The other kid, whos name is now Jackson stood up and gave me a lop sided smile. "Look Alexander, I know its crazy to believe, but Shelby is a good mom, she really does care and she is your aunt." he reached into his pocket and pulled out a photo of my dad and her, only they were much younger. My I noticed that my dad and I looked alike. "Take it if you want it." Jackson said in a soft tone. I reached out and took the picture. I ran my hand across my dads face, I looked up and in a chocked voice said, "Thank you." then I looked down and continued to trace my dads face.

They all left shortly after, an awkward hug accured between me and Shelby. After they were gone I had asked if I could go to bed early. Considering all the dishes were put away and the dessert was in the fridge. Ana said of course and I went up to my room.

I fell onto my bed thinking of what could actually happen if I moved in with Shelby. Would I be happy, safe and loved. Or would it be the same way as it is here. And the other thing... my dad didn't accept Shelby because she loved another woman. How is that even possible. Before he was sick he would always tell me that he would love me no matter who I loved. That's what he told me, was he lying or did he really mean it?

It was about three am when I finally fell asleep. I didn't dream, and if I did i didnt remember it. I woke up at five, i knew i needed more sleep but i couldn't fall back. So I grabed my phone and went to text the only person I could. But I stoped myself when I realized who that person was. I couldn't text Danny, he just hurt me and I couldn't go back to him with my problems. Especially since he was one of my problems. I put the phone back on thr night stand and stared up at my ceiling. I tired to make pictures out of the little paint bumps.

I decided that I should get out of bed and take a shower so I could smell nice for school, just because I was upset didn't mean I had to smell like I ran a marathon. It wasnt a polite thing to do so I took a nice longish shower. It felt good, the hot water beating againts my skin seemed to melt away all my stress and sadness. I stepped out feeling ten times better than i did going in.

After my shower i got dressed and ran down to the kitchen to make coffe and some pancakes with scrambled eggs toast and some bacon. While I was cooking i heard Ana on the phone. "Look I don't care okay. Some lady came to my home claiming to be his sister. Trying to take away my step-son. I just want to know if he really did have a sister and if her name is really Shelby." she sounded distraut. I almost wanted to laugh, she's never cared before. She just doesnt want to lose her maid.

I finshed cooking. I set the table and yelled that breakfast was ready and that I'm leaving early. I placed the food on the table. Grabbed my bag and house key and left. Today I wasnt going to be upset, I wasnt going to let Danny bring me down. Today was my day, and I was going to have a good one.
