The irresistible Fire

Page 10

Two weeks passed and the tension became worse in the house.Derick and I had a fight about him insisting that Lucas should invite his girlfriend for sunday lunch.My argument was that Lucas should focus on building his life as he is just 22years old and forget about girls.He got angry as he felt that I was undermining his authority as a man of the house and he punched me.I begged him to stop as he kept on untill i felt numb and could not beg anymore.He finally stopped,and I managed 2 make him forgive me by giving him a full body massage. The following morning everything was back to normal except that Lucas was acting weird.He did not greet his dad nor said a word.I pretend not to notice his unusual behaviour untill Derick went to work.When I tried to ask what was wrong with him,he could not answer me,but I could see in his eyes that he felt guilty for not protecting me and very sorry.
