'the game of riverdale'

I couldn't sleep with the thought of Fangs in jail and that video of me going around. I told FP I was gonna stay at Toni's place but that was a lie. I was going to walk the streets of Riverdale and find those bulldogs.

The Wrym was attacked last night by the bulldogs and their dark circle group. Those boys don't know what they are doing. And one day they're gonna stop on the wrong toes.

Scratch that.

They already did.

I was already angry for Fangs and now I'm ticked off that everyone in this town got that video.

I had a can of spray pain in my bag with Reggie's name on it. He was being a complete ignorant idiot about everything and someone needs to teach him a lesson. You don't go ruining peoples' things.

-

The sun was already up by the time I made my decision. There had to be someone who knew Reggies' house number. I find someone who knows and then I can pay him back in full. 

I came up on a yellow house. Maybe I could knock on the door and ask politely where Reggies' house was. I didn't have my jacket on for starters so no one could really hold a grudge against me.

I walked up the porch steps and knocked on the door lightly. Have to add that northsider touch to it.

As I waited I took in the sights. The northside was really filled with pretty houses and paper people. It looked like a dead zone here.

The door opened slowly and an older man was behind it.

"Hi! Um. I was wondering where I could find Reggie's house he left a book at my place wanted to return it to him." The fakes voice I ever did came shining through as I plastered on a smile to go with it. 

The man looked at me for a second and then a look of realization took over his face. "I- Is that- wait a minute. You wouldn't happen to be related to Derrick Diaz would you?" 

Alert. How did he know my father? Did everyone here know my father?

There was no hiding it now. I mean I did bare some similarities to him. First if was Hiram and now this guy?

"I'm his daughter. Why?" I asked him as a follow up and he smiled at me. It was a genuine smile- I felt it. I would trust him quicker then Hiram Lodge that's for sure.

"I'm Fred Andrews. Me and your dad used to go way back. Wow you just- remind me so much of him." He laughed to himself and opened the door wider. Was it to let me in? He took a look outside around me. "Where is your old man?"

Oh no.

I bit the inside of my cheek to keep from screaming. 

How many times did I have to tell everyone he was dead? Who many times would life throw me this bone? I don't want it anymore.

"H- hes uh, he got- he's gone. Passed away." I watched the light that he recently sported drain form his face. "I'm sorry."
