Where The Rainbow Ends

Chapter 5

POV:: Anita Johnson

I woke up with this terrible headache probably from all the crying. I kissed River and I know what you thinking but no I can't let it be known.

I am so exhausted I wish a fairy God mother could pop up from thin air with breakfast, no I obviously missed it. Maybe with lunch and feed it to me.

I dragged my tired ass to the hallway and down the stairs. I feel like bacon and cheese but then I don't remember the last time I went grocery shopping.

"Now it's morning Nita." Nick said opening the fridge and grabbing an Apple.

"Argh whatever, I am hungry! What was for breakfast?" I asked opening the cabinet

"Why are you still asking? Your ugly ass skipped breakfast!" He rolled his hazel colored eyes. So dramatic!

"Try toast and jelly, pretty good." He said pointing at the bread bin.

"You are really useful, sometimes." I tapped his shoulder.

I finally settled to eat and watch the latest Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

"Your father is coming home today and you are still in your pjs!" Mom said as she turned off the TV.

"It's still the weekend for heavens sake, can't I be me for once Ma!" I snapped.

"Girl you won't raise your voice at me like that, age is just the number of years you have lived. Anita I will weep your ass!" She shouted and I growled on the way to my room.

Well she is right, she's capable of rearranging my face with no regrets.

I cleaned my hell hole and finally took a bath.

I don't know if other people do this but I enjoy examining my own body. I slowly washed my right arm and discovered a small bruise that was forming on my wrist and thigh. Goodness River! My heart picked up it's pace.

I slipped in a decent outfit and before I knew it, I was dreaming on my study desk.

...

"Food is ready!" Nick said pulling the chair.

"Fuck you!" I shouted.

"The old man is home, and you can get your ass punished just for saying that." He winked and left my room.

Argh typical Nick. I made my way to the dinning room just to find my dad in his work suit and the usual smile on his face. I am not so close to him, he is extremely strict and pretty much annoying but hey he is still my dad.

"Hi princess." Dad called with a grin on his face.

Yep I am a princess to him unlike River!

"Hey dad!" I replied talking a seat next to him.

"How was work?" I wasn't really interested but it will keep the conversation going.

"Well I was still telling your mom, it was fantastic! But you know we still had to work." He said pouring orange juice on a glass I bought him for father's day. The conversation kept going.

"Guys you won't believe this, I saw girls kissing and I failed to understand, how girls fall in love with each other, it's so insane!" His voice was filled with disgust and my mom's eyes fall to the ground she couldn't look at me.

I choked on my juice. She knows about my gay tendencies.

"I hope you are not going to bring girls to my house, I want a proper wedding Anita!" His eyes were locked with mine.

"I didn't say anything dad, You married mom because you loved her and I will marry whoever I love! If it's a girl so be it." I laughed and everyone fell quiet. The sound of cutlery echoed in the room.

"Good night family" I left. I knew Nick was following me.

"You good?" He asked putting his arm on my shoulder

"Yeah I am great, night champ" I winked and entered my room.

I don't really care how my dad reacts to this, I have no space for homophobic people in my life! He is probably a closeted gay who knows. I couldn't help but laugh at my own thoughts. My dad can never be gay!

I checked it and there was a text from River telling me he was home safe and some fake friends I've been ignoring. There was a text from Kimberly but I had to pretend not to see it. In case you are wondering why, I'm trying to she her that I don't need her much.

I should be replying to Beverly instead. I mean she doesn't date people and keep it a secret! I really hate what Kim did, I felt like a fool. I can't believe she has the nerves to keep such secrets. Of course I can't let this one slide. It really hurt my feelings.

I laid on my bed facing up until sleep creeped in.
