Look Up At The Sky

Chapter 9

Pete didn't even get the chance to fully stop the car properly before I was out of it. I ran up to the door, banging the door and pressing the button to the doorbell. He was going to answer, open the door and let me in so I could talk to Lilly. I don't care what I have to do. When about two minutes had past I lost it.

“SAAAAAAM YOU OPEN THIS DOOR NOW! YOU HEAR ME?!” I screamed banging on the door. “SAM I HAVE TO TALK TO LILLY! OKEY, I'M NOT PLAYING AROUND. SERIOUSLY I HAVE GOT TO TALK TO HER!” still nothing..

“Hey, maybe he's still in school? And Lilly should be in school too right?” Pete asked me.

“What time is it?” I asked.

“Half past two.”

“Lilly's got a short day in school, she ended at one. And Sam's last lessons are math and spanish. He never goes to them but always ends up with at least a C in both classes. I know for certain THAT DUMBSHIT IS IN THAT HOUSE!” I screamed the last part. I'm so exhausted right now.. can't he just open the door already.

“Sam.. Please, I beg you. Just open the door. Please..” I was now down on my knees, crying. Begging him to open. I've never felt more silly in my entire life. The door opened. Lil stood behind Sam. Looking at me with scared eyes. Oh god.. what have Sam done to her?

“Are you going to stop yelling or what?” Sam asked with a mocking voice and a smirk.

"Lilly. I have to talk to you. It's important. Can you please come with me so we can talk?” I spoke directly to her, ignoring Sam. She looked at me, unsure what to do. And then, she looked at Sam and shook her head. “Please Lil, it's about dad.” I added.

“You can say it in front of Sam. He knows dad too.” Lilly told me with a small voice. She didn't stand behind Sam anymore so I guess that's some kind of progress.

“I'd really rather we talked just the two of us.”

“Oh just say it already!” Sam said impatiently, holding her shoulders.

“Fine. Listen to me now Lilly, this isn't easy to say.” I paused. “Dr. Brown, the doctor who took care of dad did everything he could. But dad got a lot worse very very fast and unexpectedly. “ Another pause, I had to see her reaction.

“Okey.. and then what? Dad's okey now?” she asked, carefully.

“Like I said, Dr. Brown did everything he possibly could but it just wasn't enough.”

“What? What do you mean?” Lilly was now crying. Hard. I took her hands, moving my thumb up and down to try and calm her.

“Lilly sweetie, dad is with mom now.” I said and I could see she understood what I had said. For the first time in weeks, she was now in my arms. Hugging me tight. I just wished it wasn't during these circumstances. I missed her so much, words couldn't describe it.

“Where you with him? Where you with dad when he went with mom?” Lilly asked me, taking me by surprise.

“No, I wasn't. I was in school then. Pete..” I started.

“So you weren't there when he died? You were talking to that new guy instead weren't you?” Sam interrupted me. “I have people everywhere, sweet cheeks.” he added.

“I was but if I had known he had gotten..”

“You didn't even know your own father had gotten worse? What kind of a daughter are you? Don't care enough for your old man to be with him in his last minutes.” Sam said with poison in his voice. “She didn't care for your dear father enough to be with him at the hospital. She chose to be with a stranger instead.” He said looking at Lilly.

“Don't listen to him. He doesn't know what he's saying. Come with me back home, hun.” I said to Lilly.

“She hasn't tried to talk to you for more than two weeks and now she wants you to go back with her.” He's manipulating her and I can't do anything. She was still looking unsure so maybe I still have a chance?

“I tried to, but Sam wouldn't let me see you..”

“Now she's lying to you. She never even tried to make any contact with you. She doesn't care the way I do for you hun. Did you hear her yelling before? She sounded crazy if you ask me.” he said still looking at her.

“I.. um. I'm staying here. With Sam.” Lilly said, hesitated a little at first but she then said it ice cold. Her usually warm and loving eyes, went completely ice cold looking into mine. She then turned around and left me there.

 

Sam followed her, but turned around to flash me a huge smirk and slowly mouthed 'I. Won.' to me before closing the door in my face.
