Of course last night I didn't had too much sleep and I've spent the morning next to my phone, waiting anxious for Matt to call me. Around 3 he finally called.
'-Hi.'
'-Hey Matt. So?'
'-I played the song to John and...' he made a long pause.
'-And? He hated it. I should've known by now.'
'-Actually he started to cry. I'm still in shock, I haven't seen him like that before.'
'-I'm not sure how to take this.'
'-It's a good sign.'
'-I feel sorry for him. You should check up on him. I wanna know if he is ok.'
'-I'm going to his room now. We're at mom and dad's.'
'-That's great.'
'-Hey man. You ok?' I heard Matt asking dad.
'-No, I'm not.'
'-Do you need anything?' he asked then.
'-I want my daughter back, I want everything to be ok and her not to hate me.'
'-She doesn't hate you, every time I talk to her she tells me to say to you that she loves you. I wasn't making this up, if you don't believe me you can ask her.'
'-What do you mean?' dad asked.
'-She's on the phone.' Matt said and I hoped that dad will take the phone and talk to me. I missed him so much and I was on the verge of crying.
'-It's really not the best time for jokes Matt.' dad said still not believing Matt.
'-You are one stubborn ass. Just talk to her.' Matt said and put the phone on speaker.
'-Daddy, it's Sophie.' I said almost crying.
'-Soph?' he asked not believing.
'-Yeah. Why do you think I hate you?'
'-I know I would hate me so you have every right to hate me.'
'-I don't hate you, I love you. You're my dad no matter what.'
'-I miss you and I wanna see you.'
'-We have a lot to talk about and I'm not sure you will feel the same after I tell you everything.'
'-What do you mean?' he asked sniffing.
'-Matt, can you give us a moment?' I asked.
'-Sure. I'll call you after you two finish.'
'-Ok. Thanks Matty.'
'-He left, so what you have to tell me?'
'-You know only half the reason why I left. I didn't left only because you stopped talking to me. I also left because...' And I paused to gather my courage to confess my real reason.
'-Because?' he asked.
'-Because I was pregnant.'
For what it seemed an eternity he didn't said anything.
'-Dad, please say something.' I said crying.
'-How could you?'
'-I didn't do it on purpose. I always used protection but that time it didn't worked.'
'-You could've had an abortion.'
'-Wow, I can't believe you. I assume that you told mom the same when she told you that she was pregnant with me. If I didn't hated you before this now sure as hell I hate you. I wish I never knew you.' I said and hanged up then started sobbing. How could he tell me something like that? I was angry with him and I was angrier with me. Why? Because I let myself think that everything will be ok. A couple of minutes later Matt called:
'-I take it that he didn't liked what you said?'
'-What gave me away?'
'-The fact that he stormed out of the house looking like he was about to kill someone.'
'-Good because now he knows how I felt when he told me that I should've had an abortion.'
'-He did what?'
'-You heard well.'
'-But still, why was he still crying?'
'-Probably because I said that I wish I never met him and that I hate him.'
'-Sophie Heidi Crawford Cena how could you? How could you? You cried yourself to sleep so many nights after he compared you to a slut and now you turned into him?'
'-I didn't meant to say it but I was too furious and I didn't realized what I was saying.'
'-I don't care how you do this but you need to fix it.'
'-I don't think I can. Anything I would say now or later can't take back what I already said.'
'-Both of you said some hurtful things but you need to put that in the past and be a normal family again.'
'-I'm afraid it's too late for that.'
'-You need to fix it. I need to go find John, I'm afraid he might do something stupid.'
'-Ok. Please tell him I didn't meant what I said and that I love him.'
'-I'll try. Take care.'
'-You too.' After I hanged up I started pacing around my room, I knew I messed up really bad and what I said was very hurtful but knowing my dad he won't believe I didn't meant that.
Days, weeks, months passed by and I haven't heard from Matt. Every time I tried calling him he would reject my calls. I don't blame him, in the end I managed to make him hate me for what I said to dad. So I focused on my work and on my children. I wrote all the songs from my albums and every single went straight to number one. I was mostly writing about my feelings towards my family and friends and sometimes I would end up writing a love song which oddly would make me think of Michael. The day of my children's 4th birthday I got a call from Julio.
'-Olla Sofia. I'm in US and I was talking about you to my son, Enrique, and he wants to do a duet with you.'
'-Hi. Well, I don't wanna go to US yet but if he comes down here I'll do it gladly.'
'-Es un hecho. We're coming to Madrid in 2 days.'
'-Call me when you get here.'
'-I will. How are the kids?'
'-They are fine, considering that today is their birthday.'
'-Wish them happy birthday from me and I'll see the 4 of you in a couple of days.'
3 days later Julio and Enrique arrived at the farm. I was in the garden playing with the children.
'-Do you ever have a day off?' Julio asked laughing.
'-No and I like it this way. How was the journey?'
'-Long and exhausting. Sofia this is my son Enrique.'
'-Nice meeting you.' I said flashing the famous Cena smile.
'-Same here. Now I know why dad and Miranda talk non-stop about you.' he said smiling too.
'-Should I be worried?'
'-Not at all. They had only great words about you.'
'-In this case, thank you.' I said to Julio.
'-Just stating the truth. I'll let you talk about the song in meanwhile I can check to see how things go at "La Bonita" (The Beauty-Julio's farm).
We talked about the song and we agreed we should write it together and as soon as possible.
'-I don't have anything important to do the next few days.' I said.
'-Oddly neither do I. Wanna start now?'
'-Sure. Normally it takes me about 2 days to write the lyrics, that if I'm inspired.' I said laughing.
'-Me too.' he said and we got interrupted by John who came crying.
'-What happened baby?' I asked trying to calm him down.
'-Alex and Lilly said that you love them more.' I was shocked, my girls seem to take after their dad way too much while John was more like me and they team up against him.
'-Lillian Nicole Maria and Alexandra Eva Isabel get here right now.' I said in a demanding tone knowing that they were in the kitchen. They came shyly knowing that they did something bad.
'-Why did you said that to your brother?' I asked them.
'-We didn't meant to, we just wanted to make him stop follow us.' Alexandra said sniffing.
'-You know that I love you equal and since you know that then you also know that you are grounded for a week. No cartoons.'
'-But mommy.' Lilly stared.
'-No buts. You'll do as I said. Now go outside and play and this time be nice to your brother.'
'-Yes mommy.' Both of them said and took John's hand and went outside.
'-Sorry you had to see this but the sibling rivalry started to show off a bit early.' I said.
'-Oh don't worry. I know that first hand. My brother and sister always teased me for being the youngest and getting all the attention.' he said laughing.
'-No back to work. Let's see what we can come up with.' I said and took some paper and pens. I had a good feeling about this collaboration.
