Our Father: AD3: 'Pursuing Destiny'

23: *Tell it All (3)*

[Cliff-Hanger Alert]
Omniscient POV: Continued:

"I guess it's just April left then," AJ said and everybody looked to April who looked down at her letter.

"No," Princess said hurriedly, "Please April just read it in private... Please..." Princess begged.

"Why? We all read ours, don't you think she should too?"

"No, I wro--" Princess was cut off by April who began to read her opened letter.

"Dear April," She began as Princess buried her face into her hands and rocked herself lightly.

What she'd written in April's letter could make or break her family, and she didn't want to risk it anymore. She'd written her deepest secret within April's letter with hopes to finally come clean but now she only regretted it. She regretted going to counselling, she regretted agreeing to the letters, she regretted writing the secret and allowing her to read it.

But as of now, it was inevitable, now she just had to await for her world to possibly come crashing down.

"I have a lot to apologize to you about Ape and it's taken me a while to figure out where exactly to start. I apologize first and foremost for getting in between you and our father's relationship the way that I did. It was a selfish act and I'll admit now that it was all out of spite and jealousy. I let jealousy control me and I guess that I was afraid to let you in as a sister because I was so used to being daddy's only little girl... I should've honestly respected you a lot more as a sister and looking back now; there were so many instances where you tried to talk some sense into me the civil way but being the big-headed, idiotic girl that I was, I didn't listen. I apologize for sitting back and allowing you to take the blame for all of my wrongs and for sitting carelessly whilst dad emotionally forced you out of the house..."

"I'm sorry for lying about you hospitalising me and pushing you to the point where you didn't even want to be apart of the family anymore. I was never a loving nor caring sister towards you yet I feel as if you always had my feelings in mind. I appreciate you so much for even sticking around for as long as you did and I'm honestly disappointed in myself for losing your trust..."

"It's my fault that my actions rebounded towards you and your future relationships as now dad can barely trust either of us with men. It's my fault that dad and Devin don't get along and I apologize so much because I've seen first hand how good he is to you."

"I appreciate all your love and support over the past few months and I want to thank you fir sticking by me and understanding that I have in fact changed for the better."

"The last thing that I have to apologize about could potentially make or break our sisterhood. It's taken a lot of guts to put a pen to the paper and write what I'm due to spill but I'm over and done with leaving you in the dark--"

"April don't read--"

April ignored Princess' attempt to stop her and continued to read as everybody listened attentively.

"I have a deep confession to make, something that I've been keeping from you and your triplets for years now and it's been eating me up alive..."

April trailed off but her eyes continued to skim the paper as if she were reading on in her head as Princess' tears began to descend.

"Why'd you stop reading Ape?" Adrian asked in a light tone as all eyes wafted between she and Princess.

April's eyes grew teary and her hands began to shake uncontrollably. Devin's worried self's first instinct was to embrace her as the letter flew out of her fingertips and flew by the draught onto the floor, everybody watched the letter drop to the ground but nobody dared to pick it up.

April looked up from her lap, by now tears were dropping down her cheeks and everybody is in shock and has no idea as to how to react, especially when they don't even know what April just read.

Princess was now curled in a ball in full tears as she rocked her self, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Princess yelled as tears continued to drop down Aprils face and immediately her facial expression switched from confusion to anger.

April hopped up from her seat and charged as fast as a pregnant woman could towards Princess who shielded herself with her weak arms as April's fists flew towards her repeatedly.

As April had ripped Princess' arms away from her protection, everybody else who was in pure shock and disbelief hopped up in attempts to stop the fight.

All of the guys grabbed the pregnant April and dragged her backwards, ignoring her attempts to charge at Princess once again.

April's whole body was trembling as Princess' cries filled the house along with the clustered shouting of the crew who were all attempting to take control of the situation which they knew nothing of.

The shouting continued as April slipped into a panic attack, she hadn't had one of those in years upon years. But hearing this truth being revealed only set her on edge.

Adrian and Devin pulled her into the kitchen to calm her down although neither of then were sure as to where to start. Adrian hadn't witnessed his sister in this state since Jennifer's passing years ago.

"April, listen to me aight. Imma need for you to take some real deep breaths okay?" Adrian began with as Devin slipped his arm around her and they continued to mutter words to her to try and calm her down.

Meanwhile in the main room, everybody circled Princess who was in a panicking state of her own.

"Princess, calm the fuck down!" AJ yelled and her heavy breathing stopped. After ages of trying to talk sweetly to her, AJ had grown annoyed and was eager to know what had set his usually calm sister off in such a way. The same sister who was begging for the crew to at least be civil with Princess, the same sister who barely ever shed tears, not even if her life depended on it. The same sister who was usually calm and collected with easier ways of dealing with her issues.

"What was in that letter, Princess?" AJ asked as she'd stopped breathing and they all waiting for her answer as she trembled and stared straight ahead.

Author's Note;

Very short chapter, I know, but I wanted to leave it off with that cliffhanger.

I also want to know what you guys think was written in the letter that set April off so badly??
