Darren Demetrio

It was the next morning and I continued to look over the camera footage wondering how Valencia got into my home without an type of alarm going off. There was literally no footage from the time she came in to the time I came back home. As if it was erased.

I walked into the kitchen to see my brother and daughter eating at the island.

"Any leads?" Deidre asked?

I walked to the fridge to get what I needed for a protein shake and shook my head.

"There's no way Valencia could've done this, we've knew her-"

"-All our lives? Yeah, I know. I should've suspected her being related to Donnie Alejandrio but I'm an idiot. Nearly got my daughter killed." I said.

"Daddy can we go to the park today?" my daughter asked.

"Ella why don't you just play in the one I built outside just for today okay tesoro?" [darling]

"I don't want to go to that one I wanna go out to the-"

"What did I just say Aubri. I said no."

She started loudly crying and throwing a screeching tantrum. Juli came down right as I snapped. I slammed my glass on the counter and turned back to Aubri.

"Smettere di piangere ciò che ho appena detto?! L'inferno è sbagliato ora?!" I angrily said. [Stop crying what did I just say?! Hell is wrong now?!]

She continued to stare at me with a red face as Juli asked what was going on.

"Darren calm down brother-"

"I am fucking calm. Don't fucking tell me anything about being calm."

I was getting so angry I wanted to break something.

"Darren what the hell is wrong with you." Juliana spoke, holding Ella in her arms.

"I need some air." I said. I walked out the house and walking out of my estate down the empty road. I kept hearing things in the back of my mind and began getting freaked out.

"SHUT UP!" I screamed.

You can't protect them.

She's going to die.

He's got you.

I sunk on the ground and put my hands against my head, trying to stop this noise. It never ended until I was eye to eye with Juliana.

I stared at her as the words faded out and she kept hitting my face and snapping to get my attention.

"Darren listen to me. Darren."

"What?"

"What the fuck is going on who are you talking to?"

I looked around and shook my head.

"I don't know what's going on with me Juliana I really don't I just-"

"Come on, let's go back home-"

"No I can't. I can't be with you guys, I have to leave."

"Are you out of your fucking mind what are you talking about."

"I need you safe I can't keep doing this, I just-"

"Darren I came back with Aubri for a reason. To get us closer. Why are you trying to leave now are you out of your mind?"

I just stared at her as she looked at me with so much hurt in her eyes.

"Get up, let's go back home and talk baby." she said.

I stood up as those voices became tiny whispers that I couldn't stop hearing. I chose to ignore them because they lingered over and over in my mind.

As we walked back inside the house, Aubri looked at me angrily and turned her head into Deidre's chest.

Juli whispered in my ear, "Be upstairs in 5 minutes, I'm running us a bath."

I nodded and proceeded to make my protein shake in the kitchen, putting it in the fridge for later. I went into the sitting room and sat on the couch by my brother and daughter.

Deidre looked at me then at Aubri, kissing her forehead. "Andare al piano di sopra mamas." (Go upstairs mamas.)

She got up hugging her uncle and walking up the stairs.

"What's going on with you Darren?" he asked. I shook my head.

"I don't know-"

"It's like ever since you had your surgery on your leg and all this other shit you've been strange. You're not the same Darren I know and you're acting so..-"

"So what Deidre?"

"Like you're fucking weak. Your family isn't even safe but now that bi*ch came into your home and you're just sitting here like it doesn't matter."

"That's a fucking lie and you know it, I'm doing my best to protect my family.-"

"If you were doing 'the best' that bi*ch would've been dead already. Her father would've been dead already. Anyone who crossed us wrongly would've been dead."

"You know I don't want to fucking kill anyo-"

"Bullshit, you threaten more than you actually do. You don't want to protect your family if you can't even get rid of someone who killed our father!"

"Fuck you." I said back angrily.

"I'm sorry to say but if you weren't going to drop this business then you shouldn't have been married or had a fu*king child."

I lunged for him on the couch and he moved, putting his knee on my back to keep me down.

"You shouldn't have even brought her here, you should've left her alone when you were in highschool and now you have her life in danger and your child."

I felt my eyes burn because it was sadly true; I didn't want to admit it but it was the truth.

"She trusted you to protect her and your child but you can't even protect yourself. Is she the reason why you're like this now? You act like a fucking pu*sy."

I moved under the pressure of his knee and stood up, pushing him back.

"And now you're angry at me for the truth. You're a fucking dumbass. I'll finish this mess myself since you obviously can't."

"Fuck you-"

"Fuck you too Darren. Not everything is about you. Start looking out for everyone else." he ended. He grabbed his keys and left my home, leaving me feeling furious and feeling disrespected.

I got up and went upstairs, getting in the bathtub. I just needed time to think and this was the last time I was going to hurt my family.
