Chapter 10:
Xenos' P.O.V
Previously: "X, why don't you go back to bed? We'll talk about this tomorrow." Momma said.
I walked back to my room. Zenos was snoring when I got myself back in my bed. I sunk into my bed and pulled my comforter up to my shoulders and faced the wall so that when Momma comes in to check on us, she'd think I was back to sleep. Soon enough, I heard the bedroom door move and I'm sure that it was Momma. She closed the door when she left.
I rolled to my back and was now facing the ceiling. I can't help but think. Dad looks like a great guy and from what Momma has told us about him, he sounded like a really great guy but why does he suddenly look like a bad guy to me?
Earlier tonight, at the living room, when Momma was talking about us leaving her and going off to Dad…she sounded so sure like she thought about the possibility before. Honestly, I thought that what she said was so stupid.
If they were married and were getting a divorce and I was asked who I would want to stay with, I'd say that I want to stay with Momma even if Z would say that he'd stay with Dad. I may not be fair but compared to what most Dads do, Moms has sacrificed so much more…well, in my eyes that's what it looks like.
Tracy's, my classmate and best friend back at my school in California, parents divorced and when I asked her why, she said that her Dad was staying with another girl. Tracy's mom was Momma's close friend and sometimes, when Tracy and her Mom was at our house, we would sometimes hear her Mom crying while talking to Momma. She also told me that her Dad would sometimes be sweet to her Mom and promise her stuff, like he will never leave them and that he'll never hurt them but he would end up breaking them. That's why Tracy calls her Dad a liar.
When Dad was talking about not seeing that Victoria, the image of Tracy's Dad appeared in my head. I don't know why but it just did. The way Tracy told me what her Dad used to tell her Mom was like what my Dad was telling Momma in the kitchen. I don't know but I have a feeling that he doesn't mean what he said. I feel like he's just pretending. But I wish that he isn't. So that Momma won't get hurt anymore.
ARGH! Why am I so confused?! Am I suppose to believe that his plans are for a good reason? Or am I suppose to learn from what my best friend has experienced with her Dad?! I mean, I know that maybe the backgrounds of our Dads are different but they're still Dads. They basically do the same things for the same reason.
So, what will it be Xenos? Believe that your Dad is a good person or believe that your Dad is just like Tracy's Dad? Honestly, I want to believe that he's a good person.
