Since Birth

Chapter Fifty One

The texts wouldn't stop. Some of the numbers in the group weren't even saved in my phone. There had to be almost one hundred numbers in it. It was sent anonymously and no one in the chat seemed to know who it was.
It took a few minutes to calm her down but she just started laughing the more she looked at it.
"The worst of this is that dad won't even get the chance to kill me!" She laughed shaking her head and tossing her phone onto the couch. "I'm dead already!" Her hair was growing back rapidly and she kept having to push it out of her face as she paced around the room. "What a jealous girl I mean, seriously?"
"We don't know it was her." I reminded her shaking my head. "She was upset when I saw her."
"But she was talking about me right?" She cut me off widening her eyes at me as her world began to fall apart beneath her. "This is ridiculous and she'll get arrested for the possession of child porn. I'm not eighteen yet."
"Who'd you send this photo to?" I asked shaking me head and trying to understand who had the photo to begin with.
"I don't know!" She shrugged scoffing at me. "Sean maybe or Trevor?"
"Trevor?" I shook my head at her in disgust.
"No, not Trevor but maybe Sean. I don't know. Drop it." She went into the kitchen and I followed her sort of angry.
"Drop it?" I snorted throwing my hands up at her. "Your nude body has been sent to maybe all of the senior class and then some Aimee! I can't just drop it!" The door behind us had opened and we both looked up alarmed and on edge but it was only our father.
"Evening ladies." He smiled taking his coat off and hanging it up behind him. "Are we going out to eat tonight?"
"No!" We both said at the same time and then looked at one another. Our dad only chuckled and came to join us with a sigh.
"That's okay," he shrugged it off and then grabbed his phone out of his pocket. "I had this turned off all day so I hope you girls didn't try and reach me." He held the button and I looked over to Aimee who was now sweating and had the same idea as I must've. They could've sent it to him to spite her. I know usually the parents are kept out of it but everyone knew our dad.
"Daddy," Aimee grabbed his hand to stop him with her hand over his phone screen. "Daddy something terrible has happened!" She began to cry and break down finally and my dad immediately went to embrace her and hold her tightly telling her that everything was okay.
"Don't worry, I won't be angry if you just tell me." He said to her and I snorted remembering how he treated me even though I was on the verge of tears too.
"I did something wrong daddy and-" she made sure to put on her messiest cry as she talked to him. Like she did when she was a child and he just ate it all up. "Someone leaked a nude picture of me to the entire school daddy!" She wailed and for a moment he was angry but instantly went back to comfort her.
"They might have sent it to you." I said and he looked behind her to me baffled and angry. Like I was the one who had done something wrong.
"I can't believe this." He said grabbing his phone off the counter and looking through his messages abruptly just fuming at the mouth. Aimee sat in the kitchen blowing her nose as loud as she could as he did. "They are going to pay for this!" He said clenching his jaw tightly and I frowned watching leave moments after he just came home.
"Daddy where are you going?" Aimee sobbed looking up to him as he snatched his jacket off nearly ripping it as he did.
"To the school!" He growled and just like that he had left. I turned to look at Aimee and she was no longer in tears. Now I knew how she got away with things with him. She knew how to victimize herself to him and in sure any guy. She learned it all from him. She knew how to put the blame and anger on someone else. I guess that's why we always had such a rough time getting through things. I knew how she could be.
"Well there goes my hero." She laughed and got up from the seat sniffling. "Problem solved okay? He'll get down to the bottom of it and we shouldn't worry."
"How many more picture of you like that are out there?" I asked and she snorted beginning to laugh.
"I don't know Em, it's no crime to take photos of myself!" She shrugged getting a little upset.
"But it is to send it to others!" I wanted to slap myself several times in the face because she couldn't understand it was wrong. That just was something she could get. She thought it was okay! "Just please delete anymore incriminating crap." I rolled my eyes at her and stomped all the way up to my bedroom. Was she serious?
