The Kidnapper 3

Chapter 4: Reunion part 2

"...Alex" he whispered.

"...Hey dad"

I can't believe how long its been.

Nathan and I had walked in and sat in the living room.

"Alex I...How have you been?" he asked.

"Ive been good"

"You haven't called me in years" he said.

I didn't know what to say, I mean I would have but how could I have called during everything that was going on.

"Well I mean that's true, but dad you haven't called her either" Nathan said.

And here is my little brother always sticking up for me.

"Well I suppose so" he said.

He sat back and asked "So exactly where do you live now?"

"In New York"

"Thats a bit far, don't you think" he said.

"No not really"

"Well, where is this boyfriend and friend of yours I'm suppose to meet?" he asked.

"Um, they couldn't come right now-"

"And why not?" he asked.

I didn't know what to say.

"Cause dad, they wanted Alex and you to catch up first" Nathan said.

I sighed in relief.

"Well I guess thats reasonable" he said. 

The room felt awkward now.

"Well at least tell me about your life and your boyfriend and stuff" he said.

"Well um...He's a football player for the New York Giants"

"Oh well thats nice, so I imagine that you live in a very fancy house considering you are his girlfriend?" he asked.

"Yeah, the house is pretty huge um...we actually live together"

He looked at me and said "You know your mom always said that you should never live together with a man unless their your husband"

"Yeah dad I know that, but-"

"But what?" he questioned.

I didn't know exactly what to say, so I changed the subject.

"Anyways, I sing for well known artist, but on the side I sing for weddings, birthdays and other things"

"Well, thats a shocker. I never knew you sung" he said.

"yeah, I never knew that until it just happened"

"Mhm..is there anything else you want to tell me about?" he asked.

I shook my head and said "No sir"

He starred at me and then said "Your lying"

"What are you talking about?"

"You forget, Im your father so I can tell when your lying. There's more that your not telling me" he said.

I didn't say anything.

"Exactly my point....Get out. If there something I hate, its liars" he said as he got up.

"Dad wait, you got to understand that-" he cut Nathan off

"Thats enough Nathan. This is between me and her" he said as he started walking upstairs.

I was mad at the fact that he always thinks he's right and never wants to listen to me.

"See this is why I don't call. Its to avoid this. All you ever do is argue. Even when I was younger you would find a way to argue with mom. I can't stand it, thats why I was never in contact with you all these years"

"Don think that just because your an adult, that you can just come up inside of my house and talk to me any kind of way" he said.

"Your house!? this is not just your house... its moms house aswell, or have you forgotten"

"Your mother is dead. theres no point in bringing her up" he said.

I was completely shocked at what he said.

"I can't believe you. She is your wife, how can you speak about her as if she's nobody now"

"Your mother is nobody...she was working with the same people who kidnapped those girls all those years ago, even you and yet you talk so highly of her" he said.

"Because I forgive her, you remember when I told you how she tried to help me right? AND YET YOU DONT CARE, WHAT KIND OF PERSON ARE YOU!"

"Thats it. Im done talking, GET OUT MY HOUSE AND DONT EVER COME BACK!" He said as he went upstairs.

I was shocked at his words, I couldn't believe he just said that.

Nathan had came up to me touched my arm, but I quickly moved it away and got in the car.

The whole drive back to the hotel was silent.

I couldn't help but think of the argument we had.

When we made it back to the hotel, Nathan kept trying to talk to me.

"Nathan please just leave me alone"

"No I won't, please lets talk about it" Nathan said.

We had entered the room and Austin and them were starring at us.

"Alex please just stop and talk to me" Nathan said.

"hey, what happened?" Austin asked.

"ALEX WILL YOU JUST STOP" Nathan said.

"FOR WHAT NATHAN! I told you that I shouldn't see him yet until I was ready. I wasn't ready at all and now look what happened" 

"Okay, I understand but-" i cut him off

"No you don't understand. You always think that you can fix everything, that you can solve everyones problems, but you can't Nathan. you made the situation worst. now please just leave me alone, your not helping" 

I started to walk out on the balcony when Austin had stopped me.

"Austin please don't"

"What happened?" he asked.

"I don't want to talk about it" I moved away from him and closed the door behind me as I stood outside.

I haven't argued with Nathan since that time I told him about me and Austin.

*FlashBack*

"Im sorry but you dont deserve him at all, just leave it be" he said.

"NO, I LOVE HIM SO MUCH, AND I WILL FIND A WAY TO BAIL HIM OUT OF-"

he stood up and said "ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND OR ARE YOU JUST PLAIN STUPID"

"YOUR TO YOUNG SO YOU DONT UNDERSTAND" I said as i was about to walk away, but then he got louder.

"ALEX, HE'S A FREAKING CRIMINAL, YOU COULD HAVE BEEN FOUND DEAD" HE YELLED

I didn't listen and walked away.

"FINE GO AHEAD AND WALK AWAY...BUT IF YOU GO NEAR THE PRISON, I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO TELL DAD" I heard him say but I slammed the door.

*End*

That was the worst day of my life.

Me and Nathan never argue, and look at us, arguing again.

I looked up at the sky.

"Mommy" I heard.

When I turned around Aaliyah was coming outside towards me, I couldn't help but smile.

I picked her up and she hugged me.

I couldn't help but cry.
