Kyle's POV

We're at dad's by 11 am.

Dad was home by today morning , he insisted on getting out of the hospital saying it was just a heart attack and he'll be fine, despite he has been living with HBP for almost 15 years now.

Dad is seated on his favorite couch and Charlotte is also seated on one of the couches smiling sheepishly as if someone wants to see that wicked smile on her disgusting face. She does disgusting things  so she's just disgusting to me.

How the hell she decided to cheat on my dad with that good for nothing sorry for a family friend. They have not only broken our family but Natalie's too and speaking of Natalie I wonder why she has been lying that low.

Her mother is an angel a very loving and caring person I've ever met, sometimes I wish she was my mother sorry to say that but who wouldn't such a character in their lives she's just perfect.

We exchange morning pleasantries and  I flop myself on the couch besides my lil sis.

" So dad how's the going , how're you feeling today?"

" I'm good son , as you can all see, I'm better than yesterday"

" I'm glad you're okay dad, that's the only good news I wanted to hear" Shillah chirps in and my mother sneers I hate her guts I hope she's just chased out today, I loathe her and the more I stay close to her the more my hatred for her grows.

" So children, you still my children though, the reason I called you here today is for you to get to know what has been going on our backs, your mother hear has been a cheat and if someone else could have told me ,I could have argued with them, she's a different person on the outside but she's rotten from the inside, she stinks, I can't imagine this is the woman I fell in love with 30 years ago" dad says in so much pain and I pity him.

We all nod in unison as he continues to lament.

"I thank God I found out myself otherwise she could have argued , you know her, so I've been thinking about this for a while now and I think it's time we part ways and let everyone stay with whoever she loves, it's clear your mother here never loved me so I'll let her be with the love of her life, as for me I'm good she gave me kids who makes me happy and that's enough, I love the both of you and I'll never do anything to hurt you kids"

I look from dad to mum then to my sister and I feel a ting of pain surging through me, a lump forms in my throat and I wish this dreadful moment could never have happened.

We've been staying together as a family for long and it's at this time that mom decided to ruin our family moments, I notice Dad's eyes becoming watery and I know he's crying though silently.

Mum has hurt him and she deserves nothing but a divorce

" Kyle, Shillah I'm sorry for everything and for every pain I ever caused you, I know I don't deserve your forgiveness here, and for your dad too I know I've hurt him all along, I loved Daniel all along, we've know each other for a while now and i married your dad here because he had the cash at that moment ,I just realized money doesn't buy happiness, I'm sorry you had to find it this way and I'm sorry I led your dad into this, I just hope that one day he finds peace in his heart and forgive me, I'm a marriage wrecker and I deserve nothing but hell , I'm sorry Richard"

When she finishes that, I'm reeling from anger and I just want to pounce on her and punch her so hard, how dare she do that to dad.

" So all this while you've been accusing Nicole for falling in love with my Mooney yet it was you, you should be ashamed of yourself, you're a disgrace to womanhood" I shout at her

" I'm still your mother Kyle, I might have messed up a big deal but respect is paramount, I deserve that from you if not forgiveness" she says and I click in return

"Respect my foot, you don't even have respect for your body, what do you have to say to me huh, you roaming around with other people's husbands and you're here telling me about respect ,you don't deserve anything from us and from me to be precise, I hate you" I say to her and she sits back defeated.

"Charlotte or whatever your name is , I don't know what you want from us, you should be packing and heading out if this house, go out there and hoe as many times you want,no one will judge you after all that's all you do nowadays, hoe around and accuse others falsely, I can't imagine you had the audacity to lie to me and tell me about sex before marriage is bad yet you the one who has been having sex with that man behind dad's back, you don't even care about him and everything we've been thoughts as a family ,you deserve to rot in hell, and do that favour for you,I can book you  a ticket  to  hell  because that's where you belong, you ceased being my mother the moment you cheated on dad, I hate you Charlotte" Shillah says and I agree with her,she walks out.

Mum  starts crying , I know those are just but crocodile tears
Dad says he's filed for the divorce papers and the process is on the way, he says before the divorce thing is over, Charlotte should pack and leave his premises.

I later leave to join Shillah in the car and ready to go home once I make sure Charlotte is out of the compound. She's given strict orders never to step her feet on this compound and also near anyone else in the family.

As we head to my house, I'm lost in my own thoughts I wonder what dad did to deserve all this humiliation from her.
