I woke up with the sun shining into my face, the birds chirping and everything was just beautiful, but in real life, that's just a typical morning.

"Another day, another challenge I have to face..." I whispered to myself while I stretched and looked out the window.

This black Equinox was parked in our drive way, which was Dad's car. He's back home I thought...

Wait, you know what? I don't even know why I call him "Dad" because he ain't my dad and he never will be. He already left us once and he probably will do it again anytime soon...

Obviously, our past with Rey, my step-dad wasn't that great. My mom and him would fight almost every night and my sister and I would hear them screaming and it would just  be really hard for the both us because Brenda was only 11 then and I was only 10 years old... The good thing is, they were never married. They only lived together because they had Brenda which was not planned at all.

Anyways, they fought because Rey had a habit of surfing the web and be searching for younger women  than him... Supposedly, he found a woman and was frantically in love with her. He gave up his family with some random girl on-line which was so stupid! I mean who in the right mind would do that? So, as I've said, he left Mom and Brenda, his own daughter!

Now, if you're going to ask about my dad, I really can't answer that much because I never met him and who knows where in the world he is now... Here comes my story...

After Rey had left, my mom was devastated and she didn't care about the world anymore because she  just lost the love of her life, but then she met my dad. Mom said that they met while she was at a grocery store buying Brenda's favorite fruits when she bumped into Rick, my so called real dad. They dated, and Mom admitted that she was actually happy with him. She said their relationship was totally great until she announced that she was pregnant... Just like any other guy, Rick panicked and left. He took off while I was still in my mom's womb and I don't know how Mom managed to go through another  situation like that, but she survived and and she had a chance to strart over with her two daughters... Sadly though, Rey came back into our lives. He explained himself to Mom and just made up all of his excuses and unfortunately, Mom fell for it. She took him back even though she's been hurt enough. Is that really how love is? I would ask myself that question over and over again...

This has been happening for about 3 years now... They've been fighting again but it hasn't come to the point where they'll break up. I mean their still not married yet! Mom could back out anytime she wants to and I've been telling her that. I just wish she would already wake up from this bad dream...

All these flashbacks are coming back to me as tears started to cover my eyes...

Surprisingly, someone knocked on my door which got me out of my trance and came back to reality. I wiped my eyes with my blanket and answered, "Yeah?"

"Time to eat breakfast, honey!" Mom said.

"Alright, I'm coming!" I answered back.

I got out of bed and went straight to the bathroom to wash my face, I put my hair in a messy bun and went down the stairs to have breakfast with the man who broke my mom's heart...
