Kidnapped

Chapter 26

Trigger warning! There will be suicidal thoughts in this chapter! I'm planning on posting a chapter with a (WAYYY) bigger trigger warning!

I run through our house, passing my parents in the kitchen with my shaking hands and my wet cheeks.

"We're eating cabbage soup." My mom says as she turns around to face me. Her expression immediately changes when she sees my tears.

"Have you been crying?" She asks.

My eyes fall upon my dad who's sitting at the table already with his spoon in his hand. My mom notices where my glance went and sighs.

"You haven't said a single word to your dad. We thought you had gotten enough time now. Maybe it's time to talk about . . everything." She explains.

I can't talk with him. Hell, I can't even be in the same room as him. If the events from earlier this morning didn't happen, I could've considered eating lunch with my dad at the same table.

But now with my hands shaking, I can't. I'm not stable enough to talk to anyone right now. I have to calm down first but after having to give my sweater to those boys, I can't.

"I can't." It's hard to even say a proper sentence without my voice failing me.

"Please don't forget that we love you." She tells me with tears in her eyes.

This is the first time that those three words have been said. We love you.

I don't know how to feel about it. I love my mom and I know that I have loved my father as well but right now, there is no bond between us.

"Then why did you sent Five away?" The words leave my mouth quicker than I can stop myself from saying them.

My mom her face changes immediately and I can see that she's disappointed that I brought Five up. It's the first time that his name gets said here.

It always had been inevitable. This conversation will ruin me, maybe even literally since I'm having trouble keeping myself calm right now.

"Because he is dangerous!" My dad stands up with his angry eyes upon me. What have I started?

My hands are still shaking. I'm doing a pretty good job controlling my powers but I'm not sure that I'll be able to control them any longer.

"Not that again." I roll my eyes at my dad "Five would never hurt me. Wait you don't know that because you made him leave after not even an hour!"

"I did it to protect you!" He raises his voice. I can tell that he's trying to stay calm but he's failing miserably and he knows it.

"Of course. You did it to protect your daughter. Maybe you should have started with getting to know her! You know, who she is and what she is?"

For example a monster.

"You don't know me. I've changed. You know why that is? Because you both were dead! Five knows me and Five cares for me. You sent him away! How could you do that to me?" At this point I am yelling.

It doesn't take long for me to turn around and run. That's what I have gotten pretty good at. Running away from Five, Cha Cha and Hazel and now my own parents. I don't hear my dad yell anything back when I try to calm down as I walk upstairs.

I'm very glad that he didn't. It wouldn't have taken much more for me to cause the end of the world.

Once in my room, I open my window and climb on the roof. My parents don't know that I'm capable of doing so. They probably think I'm crying in my pillow right now.
