WHEN DADDY LEFT

Going green

Daniel's POV

"You promised you'd take care of Y'vania and my son but instead you let her out of control and now she's nowhere to be seen."
" Stop huffing around Anthony she's probably at Ethan's house."

I speak unsure of my words.

The thing is, she left this morning. We had a slight misunderstanding because her elder sister kind of found out about the other baby she lost and that Anthony is the father and now as Y'vania puts it, the whole family knows about it because Mia can't keep her mouth shut. Oh did I mention that the said sister is on her way to California? I guess I just said that now. Well..she's almost here.

It's about to burn.

"I am asking for the last time Daniel who the hell is Ethan and what is Y'vania doing there?"

"Is someone going green with jealousy?"

I ask back simply to buy thinking time.

"I am not jealous. She is my woman and the mother of my son. So I am asking again. Where is Y'vania?"

"Ethan is a friend of ours and Y'vania is just spending some time there trying to forget that ..."

"That what?"
"That uh.. whaat? She's just planning a party."

Wow. Genius me. A party.

"Since when did Y'vania start planning parties?"
"Since...since this morning."

"You're so unbelievable Daniel. I didn't know you're a pathetic liar too!"
He snaps seething in anger.

"Look Anthony. She's okay but I don't think she wants to see you. She's so angry. We had a little misunderstanding this morning about some information that leaked to the public and now both her manager, publisher and editor are calling her for a meeting first thing tomorrow morning."

I'm really getting myself into deep problems with these lies.

"What is it that leaked to the public?"

"Anthony why are you asking so many questions what do you need to know? You're neither her doctor nor her boyfriend anymore."

Wait. Did I just earn myself a VIP ticket to a thrilling action movie? Yep definitely.

My phone rings just as the doorbell rings. Do I have to get both things at the same time?

"She is my girlfriend Daniel. Nothing has changed."

He says clenching and unclenching his fists.

"Oh please Anthony you're not her boyfriend stop lying to yourself!"

I shout picking my phone from the couch. Tessa's calm voice almost assures me that everything is okay but no.

Did I say I chose my phone over the door? The person outside got tired and stormed in just as Anthony was in the middle of screaming that he's the boyfriend? Ha ha so funny.
Tessa's goes on speaking.

"Why is Y'vania so scared of coming home? What have you done?"

"Nothing! I did nothing. We just fought a little. Everything is fine...nope. Not really fine. Just tell her to come back her sister is here."

"What? Daniel! Shit."

She curses and I hear a loudable gasp probably from Y'vania.

I turn around to face a staring hard competition between Mia and Anthony. Wow. Things are definitely on the loose end.

I walk towards her trying to make things easier but I guess I'm so late. Next thing I see are a few stars and a shadow of Mia's palm across my face. I am still blinking the stars away one at a time when something flies across the room and misses my poor head by a couple inches and crashes somewhere behind me..on Anthony's head and that thing happens to be...oh no that's not my trophy lying in pieces right?
