No Longer Lonely

New Face, Who's This?

   When Makayla and I got out the car to approach my Dad and this mystery woman, my emotions started to go all over the place, it went from happiness, to sadness, to anger, to confusion! When I was walking towards him he didn't seem to notice me until the mystery woman turned to the side to see two teen girls sprinting their way. The woman tapped my Dad shoulder to notify him of our presence, when he turned to see our faces he seem surprised yet happy. Makayla and I stood in this awkward silence until Dad spoke up " Hey Sabrina! How ya been?" he said. I had this "are you fucking serious" face expression because his drunk dumb ass acting like he was not missing for two days. "Dad where the hell you've been?! It's been two days since you came home, what is going on?!" I said angrily. He stands there and look at all of us waiting for an answer, he then opens his mouth, "Well...I've been doing things, important things?" He questioned himself. You must be real dumb and fucked up to questioned your own damn self, I thought to myself. I finally spoke after standing there waiting for a more reasonable answer, "So you're telling me you've been doing important things but sit here and question it..?"
He stood there staring at me like he was trying to function two brain cells. Unfortunately, I stand corrected because I can see white residue on his brightly color shirt he had on— also, with my sharp eyes, a fresh needle indention on his forearm. I realized I was looking at him in disgust merely based on the fact that he's just out here feining it up in daylight and not caring. Expected. He didn't noticed my face expression as he stared at me because well— he's strung no Pain.
To my surprising, this mystery woman had stopped our non mutual staring contest with a simple two clap and my father alertly snapped back. Ka and I had an Office moment because what in the hell was THAT?! She cleared her throat to now bring back our attention to her and she began to finally speak.
"Darlings..the name's Rio. Your father has been staying with me for a while as he handled important duties amongst his toy company." Again, Ka and I both simultaneously looked off to on set camera because why is SHE even speaking to us and not him. Ka being the outspoken bestfriend and me being the no so outspoken bestfriend, she steps in and speaks,"Yeah uh..Rio? I think the two of them would like to speak amongst themselves as a family. So if you don't mind-" as she steps in the middle of all of us. Rio stare inbetween the both of Ka and I, looked at my father, whispered something in his ear and walked away. I looked away to the offset camera because I wasn't sure if I just seen what I seen. Seemingly, I wasn't the only one because Ka was looking at the camera as well, that's my bestfriend.
  My dad seem to be sobering up a bit seeing that he was now responsive and suggested we walk home and discussed his whole disappearance. We started walking down Springfield Ave and stopped at Sonic to get some milkshakes. He sat us down and began talking, "Now I know this seems all hectic and that's why i'm sitting here ensuring you that everything's fine. I've been trying to get back on my feet after the death of your mother and Rio is someone I hired to help me."
"Also someone I am seeing."
What. The. Fuck...
