My Own Fame (Sequel to 'The Trap')

Rochelle's POV Chapter 3

Dear Diary,

I was thinking about one time when Dad tried to come and visit me at my grandparents' residence, some time ago. Right before he arrived, I was venting to me grandma about everything that I wrote in the last entry. She told me how Amy would love to know how Dad got remarried and had loads of children. But she was sad that Dylan and I didn't get a chance to grow up with our own mother. I've heard from some family how my parents were counting down the days to hold me brother and I. Why did she have to die??

Just then I heard the butler introduce Dad, so I bolted out of the room. I hoped that he didn't see me. I was so livid with him. I've been ignoring Dad for him to get that I didn't want to talk to him, or see him if he was going to ask all those pointless questions. He stayed a while just talking to me Mum's parents. He even had the nerve to ask where I've run off to. Me Grandma had the bloody nerve to tell him that I was around the there somewhere. Why would she turn me in like that?? 

So while he searched the house for me, I hid behind a tall bush in the garden. I stayed out there until the sun went down. I didn't want to be either found by him or accidentally run into him, that would've been an nightmare. And thankfully when I came inside, Dad wasn't waiting for me. But I never heard the end of how much Dad missed me and how disappointed he was not to see me and talk to me. 

To be honest, I did want to see him, but just from a distance. I didn't want to hear the rubbish he would spew about coming back to America with him. That's not an option, not now and maybe not ever. 

I believe that I cried myself to sleep that night. I was just so frustrated with him honestly. I just can't believe that he would invade me space like that. But damn, how I miss him so.
