Dear Diary,
Watching my dad spit and sweat in the ankle lock was the hardest thing I've ever had to watch. I know it's been a long time since I've spoken, but the last few weeks have simply been hell….
Three weeks ago
Cass gets out of her car and walks backstage, greeting people, she walks up to 'Taker's dressing room and knocks.
'Taker: Yeah come in.
Cass: Hi dad, so what is the emergency?
'Taker: Nothing, I just wanted to talk with my baby girl.
Cass: What's wrong?
'Taker: You and your mother, always gotta think something's wrong…. Nothing's wrong. Not a whole lot of nothing is wrong.
Cass: Okay dad, don't go all Froyd on me, spit it out. ('Taker spits his chew in a cup) Uhm gross and that's not what I meant.
'Taker: You and Jeff talk anymore about this marriage business.
Cass: Marriage business…
'Taker: That's what it is little girl. Business and you got to be able to handle it. Marriage is not all about sex.
Cass: Gosh dad, I didn't know that…
'Taker: Marriage is about sacrifice, commitment and more sacrifice.
Cass: Dad we both know that.
'Taker: What the hell do you two know… the boy can't even commit to one damn hair color.
Cass: I know what this is all about. Dad, you're scared, so am I but you're not losing me.
'Taker: Hell little girl, I ain't scared of losing you! My blood runs through your veins! I will never lose you.
Cass: Dad I'm standing right here, why so yelly?
'Taker: Because little girl, I think you're making one hell of a mistake! One big ass mistake!
Cass: I love Jeff dad.
'Taker: You don't know Jeff.
Cass: You said you liked him.
'Taker: I do. That doesn't change the fact that you don't know him, and he don't know you and you two wanna frollick like two damn fools to the alter not knowing shit!
Cass: I expected a little support, I guess that's just too damn much!
'Taker: You get the bass out of your voice when you speak to me missy! I'm your father! And my blessing?! You don't get it!
Cass: You already gave it! Daddy what is this all….
'Taker: I'm Undertaker. I'm taking it back!
Cass says nothing but runs out of the room in tears.
That night was even worse
After her match with Ivory, Cass is sleeping on the sofa in her dressing room, she falls asleep in the middle of Rocks match and misses Jeff's match. Jeff comes in to the room and lies down on his fiance, kissing her. She wakes up and they kiss.
Jeff: Ready to go?
Cass: Yeah I guess, I missed your match…
Jeff: It was nothing out of the ordinary.
Cass: Yeah, but you're not ordinary…
Jeff: (busses her nose) Okay Pot (as in the Pot calling the kettle black).
Cass: Dad and I got in a fight today. (Jeff nods he knows) You knew? He talked to you didn't he! That man!
Jeff: He's only thinking of you Cass.
Cass: Hold up! Hold the fuck up! Are you saying you agree with him?
Jeff: I just think he may be right on a couple of things. We jumped into getting married feet first baby! Come on Come on. What are you gonna do when I'm on the road for weeks at a time. Are you forgetting all about school? How come you never asked me about the girls I dated, and I never asked about the guys you dated?
Cass: Cos it doesn't matter!
Jeff: It does Cass it does. I didn't even know that you had a thing with my brother and you know how bad that was!
Cass: Why are you bringing that up! If you don't want to marry me all you have to do is say so!
Jeff: I think we should hold of on marriage plans.
Cass: Maybe we should just hold off on everything all together.
Jeff: No, Cass come on! I love you!
Cass: If you love me why don't you want to marry me?
Jeff: It's not that I don't want to marry you. I just don't think that the time is right for us now. We'll get there, I know we will. Just not now.
Jeff kisses Cass' fore head and she cries into his shoulder. 'Taker walks by and his eyes catch with Jeffs, he know that they've broken off the marriage plans.
… So Diary, the next few weeks were real awkward. Jeff and I, as much as we're doing this for us, are growing more and more apart. The impulsive make out sessions are a blur… there's the loudness of silence when we sit to eat a meal together, and sometimes when we get to out hotel at night, he'll sit up and watch tv and fall asleep on the sofa. We're suppose to be growing closer; that isn't happening. I can't finish his sentences anymore, and I keep wondering what kind of poison my own father placed in his head. Even when we were on different parts of the country, dad and I always talked, but I haven't said boo to him and he hasn't said shit to me…..
Two days ago
Jeff is working out in the gym, Cass walks up to him with a bottle of water, she gives to Jeff and he sits and drinks.
Cass: I waited up for you last night.
Jeff: We went out to get something to eat, I asked you to come along.
Cass: I thaught we could get in some alone time…(silence) Damn story writers put me in an angle with Adam.
Jeff: Yeah? What's that all about?
Cass: I'm suppose to be his groupie… Here I go to valet city.
Jeff: Not bad. (she frowns) What?
Cass: Nothing.
Jeff: No what Cass?
Cass: Nothing.
Jeff: Fine! Damn I can't say anything around you!
Cass: What's with all the anger!
Jeff: Forget it.
Cass: No, something's wrong! Spill it!
Jeff: Cass now is not the time!
Cass: If you don't want me to do the angle all you have to do is say so!
Jeff: What? What the fuck about this angle, I don't care! What? What should I be jelous?! Sorry baby, not happening.
Cass: What is your deal! Okay? What is going on between us!
Jeff: Nothing!
Cass: You're damn right nothing! We spend more and more time apart! I don't even know you!
Jeff: And I don't know you! It's a good thing we called off the wedding! (wipes off sweat with a towel) Now how about we call off us! (Jeff throws down the towel and storms out of the room)
Cass closes her diary and puts it in the bag with her other things, she is in her hotel room. A knock is heard on the door, she opens it and it's Amy.
Amy: You about ready?
Cass nods her head yes. Lita grabs one of her bags and Cass walks behind her out to the lobby. Out waiting there is 'Taker. Cass walks over to her father and goes into his embrace.
'Taker: You hurt the ones you love. I'm sorry baby girl, I know I hurt you.
Cass: Bye daddy.
'Taker kisses Cass' fore head and she walks out to the car and gets in with Amy and they take off for the airport. 'Taker watches them leave, then Jeff walks up behind him. 'Taker doesn't turn around.
'Taker: Thank You.
Jeff nods and turns and walks away, a tear flows down his face, he puts on his sunglasses.
