Angel In Disguise

Chapter 12 (Crystal)

I knew Storm was telling the truth about what Chris did. And I know some of y'all out there are calling me a poor excuse of a mother. But I do love Storm I just have a hard way of showing it. When I was a child my mother abused me physically and verbally. when I had Storm I promised myself I wouldn't treat her like my mom treated me but as you can see that didn't happen. I started mistreating Storm after her father left. And that was when she was 7. Giovanni Daniels was the love of my life. He and I met when I was in College, a freshman to be exact. During that time he was a nickel and dime selling dope boy,but he used to always say he was going to build his own drug empire and Sure enough he made his dreams a reality. I was only 19 when I got pregnant with Storm. Giovanni was so happy when I told him. He took good care of me throughout the whole pregnancy. And I didn't even need a Babyshower because he bought every and anything she would've needed. When Storm was born it was the happiest day in my life. I had a man, who I was madly in love with, and a beautiful baby girl. Everything was going good until Storm was 3 years old. It was her 3rd birthday and Giovanni and I had thrown her the best birthday party a 3 year old could have. After the party I was deadbeat tired. Giovanni noticed how tired I was and he offered to watch Storm. And I gladly excepted because I was too tired to watch a very hyper toddler. I headed to our bedroom and took a hot shower before climbing into bed. Just as I was about to climb in bed I heard Storm Crying. I know Giovanni told me he was going to watch her but my motherly instincts kicked in, and I just went to check on her. I walked down the hall and saw that they were in the bathroom. Giovanni was taking Storm a bath. The door was cracked open so instead of walking all the way in I just stood on the side. As I looked inside the room I got the shock of my life. Giovanni was Molesting our baby girl.

"Shhhhhh stop crying it's ok daddy's baby" I heard Giovanni say, as he moved is finger in and out of Storm's 3 year old Vagina. That only made Storm Cry Harder. "It hurt daddy" Storm said in her broken English continuing to cry. Giovanni continued to move his finger in and out her body. He stopped and stuck his fingers in his mouth. "Daddy's Sorry, you want icecream?" Giovanni asked Storm. "Yayyyyy I get Icecream" Storm said Attempting to dry her tears. Giovanni got Storm out of the bathtub and dried her off. As he was putting on her nightclothes and lotioning up her body her finally noticed me standing outside of the door. "Ohh hey baby how long have you been standing there?" Giovanni asked with a smile. I stood there with tears Streaming down my face. "How could you?" I asked. Giovanni looked at me with a confused face "how could I what?" He said. " I saw what you did Gio, I saw you!! How could you do that sick shit? She's your daughter for Christ's Sake" I screamed, causing storm to get upset. "Baby I don't know what you're talking about" Giovanni said as he carried Storm to her Bedroom. " I ran up to him and took Storm out of his arms "Don't you touch her you sick bastard" I said still crying. I was Crying because I had failed my daughter. "I have no idea what you talking about imma just leave" Giovanni Said, as he walked into the front room. And I followed behind him with a sleepy storm in my arms. I watched as he grabbed his keys and walked out of the front door.

After that I siezed all communication with Giovanna. He begged and pleaded for me to talk to him but I wouldn't give in. After months of him begging I finally agreed to talk to him. He apologized and said it would never happen again. And like a fool i believed him. Giovanni Showered me with Expensive gifts, took me on Shopping Sprees, and made sure Storm got the same thing. Everything was going good until one Day I saw him looking at Storm. But it wasn't the fact that he looked at her, it was HOW he looked at her. At the time Storm was 7 years old. She didn't even remember the Incident that happened when she was 3 and I didnt plan on telling her. I caught Giovanni looking at Storm the way A man would look at a Sexy Grown Woman. His eyes were filled with Lust. I confronted him about it and when had a big ass argument causing him to leave. After he left he never came back and that was why I disliked my own daughter. Although I knew it wasn't her fault I blamed her. It was easier to blame her. It was easier to hate her. The love of my life, wanted his own daughter. She was the reason why he left. She was the reason why I was lonely for years. I failed my daughter not once but Twice. I was now Addicted to Coccaine, thanks to Chris. He introduced me to it and it seemed to take all the pain away. I know he raped my daughter and it hurted me. But the drugs took the pain away and if I would have left Chris I would be leaving the drugs. Maybe one day storm would understand that I really did Love her, but the hate outweighed the love I held in my heart. I wanted to change my ways and be a mother to Storm but I felt like to much damage had been done.
