Like mother like daughter | Paul McCartney (COMPLETE)

Part 12 - Confrontation

*poorly written, unnecessary drama*

~~~~~

"You are having an affair with Paul aren't you?"

My eyes widen and I gasp out wide.

"Tell me mom... "
Cecilia slurs.

I shook my head.

"Cece.. I don't know what you're talking about..."

I try to caress her cheek but she brushes her hand away.

"So would you explain to me how is your ring at Paul's place?"

How did she know?

"No Cece... you are ju-"

"Isn't this your ring?"

She pulls out the ring from her pocket and brings it before my eyes.

My entire body freezes and I didn't know what to say.

"I knew it. From the moment I introduced you guys, you both were so weird... and then him inviting you over at his place and you disappearing every afternoon somewhere... and then this! I knew it, I fucking knew it!"

Cecilia throws the ring at me with a cry.

She sinks down on the floor crying and seeing her so broke like that, broke me as well.

"Why'd you lie to me mom? Y'know you are the only person I trusted the most.. I mean.. I don't even trust dad as much as I trust you..."

"I didn't lie to you Cece..."

"You did!"

"Well I just hid the truth from you!"

I retort.

"It is just as worse as lying, mom!"

She cries, glaring at me through her reddened eyes.

I didn't know how to explain my stance to Cecilia.
And at this point, she didn't even seem to be in a position to hear my point of view.

I sat down next to her and tried to take her hand in mine, but she shrugged it away.

"I trusted you mom... I thought I could rely on you..."

She sobs in.

"I am sorry Cecilia... I am sorry.. I had no intention to hide all of this from you.. but.. I had no other option!"

"Oh well really? Or is it because you were selfish and wanted Paul all by yourself?"

She scoffs.

"Cecilia, I didn't do any of this in purpose..."

She ignores me and drying off her tears with her shirt, prepares to leave.

"Cecilia wait!"

"Mom I am pretty late for school so I better leave. And also wait until dad hears everything about you!"

She spats on my face and leaves.

Paul's POV:-

"Come in.."

I say, without looking up from my papers.

"Hi Paul"

I look up and meet a teary eyed Cecilia.

I instantly get up from my chair and cup her face.

"What's wrong Cecilia? Have you been crying?"

"Uh-huh!"

She sobs and hugs me tight.

I hug her back, wrapping my arms around her middle as she buries her head under my neck and sniffs hard.

"What happened Cecilia? Why... why are you crying?"

I ask, cradling her hair.

"I had a fight with mom.."

I led out a silent gasp.

"She thought she could have something which was mine.. but she was wrong... and so I taught her a lesson.."

I pull back from Cecilia and lift her chin up, to meet her dry eyes.
She wasn't crying, she was just whining.

"What are you talking about Cecilia?"

"You know what I am talking about, Paul.. I am talking about you!"

My heart skips a beat.

"What?"

"I know about you two.. and have known for sometime now.. but today I finally confronted her about it and well she is going to remember it for the rest of her life.."

What was she-

"Well what did you tell her?"

"I told her that she was a selfish and a horrible mother, who tried to steal away what was mine and tonight, I am even going to tell on her by telling everything to dad!"

I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

"Cecilia, you won't do any such thing. I am telling you.."
I stay sternly.

"Too late Paul... She should have thought before coming between me and my boyfriend.."

I grab hold of her shoulders and spin her around.

"No, you won't do such a thing because I love her alright?"

To be continued...
