Well, let’s just say I was failing my family. I was supposed to look out for them. To make sure we stay together no matter what. That is what my parents wanted to achieve. That is what my parents intended for me to have.But slowly I was losing that. Well, you can say part of it was because of the same people they allowed in my life. Because of who they brought in my life, I was here today. But also because I was trying to make things right. To listen to what they all said to me and not what my heart felt. Because when I chased Roland and Vykalia out of the house, I never wanted to do that. What I wanted to do was to make Joseph and Roland talk things out. Yes, he was going to be upset, and that I understood. But I never intended for him to go to the extremes of leaving the house because he couldn’t stand Roland. I never wanted that, and it hurt to know it has reached that far.And now he is not even talking to me and has left the house. My whole family was everywhere, and I was scare
“Roland, the only reason we are here is because you kept his son from him. Because you and Vykalia decided to keep his son from him without him, knowing the boy was still alive. And that is why you and her are staying somewhere else. And here you are telling me this concerns the boy, what the hell is wrong with you?” I asked, pacing up and down in his bedroom.So, after all that happened and then we all said sorry to each other and apologized, he is here telling me that he had something about Jeremiah. Like what the hell was wrong with this guy?“And for the record, you still haven’t explained to me why you thought it necessary to keep Suzan hidden and not tell me about it. I had the right to know about her and her existence. If the reason you kept her there was because of me, then you should have told me. You guys make it very difficult to love you and under you at times. Because I really don’t understand anything you do,” I added, and stopped pacing at last.He just sat there lookin
“Justine, I will deal with them, you and Roland can keep talking,” Maria stopped me as I was on my way to see my in-laws. “You are already dealing with a lot of things. I can handle my parents, don’t worry,” she said, pushing me to go back to the room.“Maria, me and Roland are done talking. You need to let me talk to them. They are calling my name, after all. So, I’m sure they have something they need to talk to me about. And I can assure you I will not do anything bad to them. They are my in-laws after all,” I told her as I tried to move to the other side, but she pushed me back.“Nope. I know you and right now you have a lot going on in that head of yours. There is the issue with Joseph and his son and then Roland and Carl and everything else. I will deal with them. That is the least I can do. Just stay here. I will handle them,” she said and then pushed me into the room where Roland was still seated at the chair I left him. “I love you. Roland, take care of him please,” she said a
I looked at them as they waited. Exchanging thoughtful looks here and there as if it was just the two of them, or as if me and Roland can not see them. And of course Carl being Carl, he also decided to show up in the mix.He said he would never miss a chance to see me humiliate my in-laws because they made me go through a lot. Because of them me and Maria separated and part of the reason Suzan was with my brother. Well, also because she was stupid to listen to my half brother. That psychopath of a person.“We are waiting just in case you forgot we are here. So, blow us away. What about Suzan?” I asked.Part of me didn’t want to know because I knew I would get involved more than I was. Because of my brother being involved, I was also in the mix because he was still looking forward to hurting me. Break me to pieces and make sure I lose everything I have. Hence him using Suzan, the sister to my wife and her son. The son of my best friend. It was a perfect fit.But here they came, saying
After we finished up, my in-laws finally decided to leave. Well, not until I helped them with the house. But it was not in their names anymore. It was in Angel and Jeremiah’s name.Well, Maria didn’t want me to do that because she knew her parents very well. She knew they were here because they needed more than what they disclosed. And that is why she was so skeptical about them being here.She loved them and appreciated them, but after what they have done in the last months, she never wanted them to know her. Maybe later as time goes on. But for now, she just wanted them far away but still be in touch with them.And I also knew they were up to something bad, and that is why I made sure I talked to my lawyer and he helped me with the paperwork. I made sure everything went well, and that they will not use it against me in the future.And now I just sat in my bedroom. I didn’t even tell Joseph about why they were here because the man was out by the time I went to look for him. And he to
“I will see you tomorrow. I will come and check how you are settling down, okay?” She walked over and hugged her mother and grandmother. “I love you both.”“And you are stupid to let this snake stay in your house? What the hell is wrong with you and that husband of yours? Have you seen her properly? She is the kind that snatches people's husbands,” her grandmother said for only her to hear.“Grandmother, you are being dramatic. Just leave it up to me. And I know she needs something more than working with him. Of course I will deal with her. Just take care of yourselves,” she shouted, the last part for all to hear. “And Mateo will come and see you. He has to bring the rest of your things,” she said and smiled at them as they left the house.There was a pause as they all walked into the living room, no one said anything but they all just sat in silence. It was an awkward moment and someone Trevor tried to break the silence and ruined everything instead.“Well, I was hoping you can show
Sometimes I think I might as well be losing my mind. I mean, come to think of it? I know Carl is crazy and can do anything crazy. And yet I was still thinking he was made to do some things. If there was someone amongst my family who I thought would kill me of a heart attack or make Angel and Alexander do crazy things, was Carl. Guaranteed.And now I stand in fea because of him.“Carl, what the hell do you think you are doing?” I asked as I stood in front of him and the queens in their wedding dresses. “I thought I was clear when I told you not to get married to these two queens. Don’t even think about it Winter,” I held up a hand at her as she opened her mouth.“And why would you even accept taking them both, Carl? Do you think marriage is a joke?” Vykalia asked as she walked to stand next to me. “And you two have shame. How do you get married to a child?” She looked at the queens.They just stood there, not saying anything, just looking down. They tried to speak, but closed their mou
“Vykalia, they mean no harm this time. You need to leave them alone and let me deal with them the way I know best. I know you are trying to be there for me but, right now they look vulnerable and they are my problem not yours. Just make sure Carl is perfectly fine,” I told her and pushed her forward. “I love you!” I shouted, and she just turned to glare at me as she made her way upstairs.After we got back from fea and everything was sorted out, we decided to make our way back home. But not until I talked to Odin.The fact that I was feeling so much angry with everything these guys did, I thought I needed to have a talk with them all. And I have been meaning to have that talk for years now. Because every time I missed that talk, things seemed to only get worse.And after what might come my way, I needed them to best straight on hornets with me and not allow me to be surprised and see everything by myself.I know after what we did in fea. After the show we put on with the queens, they
