Xia Yao's POV

"It was your father." That sentence kept replaying in my head. Over and over again. I felt like everything around me was getting smaller and blurry. Yuan Zong was almost looking like a dot to me. I felt like everything was spinning and I was feeling quite dizzy and... soffucated. The need to breath was getting bigger and bigger and I needed to hold on to something, to prevent myself from falling down. Almost as if Yuan Zong could feel what I was feeling, he grabbed my hands and pulled me into him. And when I tried to talk, nothing came out. I was at a loss for words.

"It was your father." The last word was constantly stabbing me, crushing my heart the entire time. I couldn't believe it, I didn't want to believe it.

Was it really him? Would he really be that cruel to do such an act? Was he even capable of doing that? Yes, he was. And that reality hit me like a ton of bricks.

"Hey, hey, baby. Come on, breath." I just shook my head slowly, not managing to form any words.

"If your bitch of a mother had gotten an abortion, none of this would have happened!"

I started getting horrible flashbacks, reminding me of my fucked up past. This was something I really wanted to leave behind when we first moved here. My past. I wanted to come to terms with it and not let it get to me like it used to.

"You are just a pathetic excuse of a son." I remembered his words like it was yesterday. The way he looked me in the eyes, wearing a cold and harsh expression, while having his nasty hands wrapped around my neck, almost choking me. He was and still is a disgusting man.

"I will always haunt you, find you. If you and that slut think you will ever get rid of me, you are wrong." This really hit me.

It was him, there was simply no other explanation for that and I had to choke back a sob yet again. I completely forgot about my "father". I didn't actually think he would put his words into action that day and that maybe he only wanted to scare us. I still hoped it wasn't him, really.

Just the thought of him being back, made my insides churn.

I had to go through so much pain, because of him. Physical, mental and emotional pain. He never supported me in anything, it was always him against my mother and I and never us as a family together.

Emotional pain isn't felt the way a cut or bruise is. It's worse, much different and only you could tell it was there. Sometimes the pain is at the back of your mind like a pulse, controling your whole body and actions. Other times it pushes itself forward, demanding attention from you, cutting your heart and mind in half, stinging with every breath you take. It was painful, almost endless. You felt like there was nothing in this world or no one in this world that could lessen the emotional pain you were feeling. But you do. And I did, too. And that was Yuan Zong. I knew he would be there for me, if my father really were to come back. Yuan Zong would always be there for me. There was no way I could fight this battle alone, without Yuan Zong by my side and that was the scary part. I was already so depended on Yuan Zong, it was crazy.
