~ Chapter 25 ~

It went a few seconds before Kendall opened her mouth confused.

"He what?"

I sighed and looked down on my hands again.

"The day before we fought, it just happend. I couldn't stop him and I was just afraid. And now, every time a boy touches me I feel that creep raping me all over again" I said. I looked up at Andrew to see how he reacted.

He looked disgusted.

"Your own father raped you? Really?" He asked.

"Yeah and please, don't look at me like that. I know I'm a disgusting slut, I feel like one too but-"

"No stop don't say that! Don't you ever say that! It's not your fault!" Kendall hugged me all of a sudden.

I hugged her back, feeling my tears were on their way again. But I didn't let them slip.

"You have to tell the police!" Andrew said as Kendall sat back down.

"What no! He'll kill me if I told the police!" I panicked.

"You don't have any choice!" He said.

"No Andrew. Just no! I can't risk that. I bet he has friends in the police that can sneak him out whenever he wants! Please, don't say anything to anyone okay?"

They looked at each other, unsure of what to do.

Kendall sighed.

"Ari, they're going to ask you about it anyway! There are detectives that are all over this case now." she said.

"Detectives?" I asked. They never said anything about any detectives?

"Yeah, and you know your brother? Kevin Ryan Grande? He's on it. He's on this case!" Kendall said.

Yes his real name is Kevin Ryan, but he didn't like his first name so he chose to be his middlename.

So I and everyone else call him Ryan.

"What? He lives in Florida now, what the hell is he doing here?" I asked angrily.

I haven't spoken to him in years. He said he would call when he got there but he never did.

"He said he wanted this case. And by the way, he moved to New York 2 years ago. He's in the NYPD." Andrew said.

NYPD? What the hell have he been up to?

I just nodded, I didn't know what to say. He knew my mom was dead, he just didn't know how.

He will blame me for this. He's just like Ted. He doesn't care about me getting hurt. He doesn't care about me at all.

I heard someone knock on the door twise.

"Come in" Kendall shouted.

The door opened and the next face I see was my brothers. Wow he had grown...

"Ari" he said, taking a deep breath.

He wore a black suit with a blue shirt and a purple tie. His blue eyes shined in the reflection of the light and his hair... he had changed his hairstyle.

"Could you give us a moment please?" He asked Kendall and Andrew.

They looked over at me, I gave them the 'don't leave me' look. But they turned around and nodded to Ryan.

They got out and it was just me and Ryan now. In one room. Alone. Haven't seen each other for years.

Well this is awkward.

He sat down by my side where Kendall sat just a few seconds ago.

"I've missed you" he said. He tried to grab my hand but I slipped it away. Not letting him touch me.

"If you missed me, you could've called" I said cold.

Silence crossed the room and he looked at me in regret.
