Jessica's Point of View
Daddy and Xemnas came out of my room. I shrunk under Daddy's glare. Xemnas walked away, but as he was leaving he placed a hand on my shoulder. Once he was gone, Daddy dragged me into my room. "What were you thinking?!" He screeched. I ducked under my bed and curled up into a ball. I don't feel up to being yelled at and he won't be able to see me cry. Tears streak my cheeks as I hide under my bed.
"Jessica, come out from under there." He groaned. "I don't want to." I sobbed. "Sometimes we have to do things we don't want to do. It's just the way it is." Daddy stated. "You mean like find out that my parents aren't really my parents? Maybe you're talking about losing everyone I care about. Twice. Oh, I know! How about watching two of those people get killed by a psychopath. You pick." I snapped. I just want him to leave me alone. Is it too much to ask for two minutes to myself?
"Jessica, come out from under the bed. You're acting like an child." I all but laughed. "In case you haven't noticed, I am a child." I huffed. I could hear him mumbling to himself about what he was going to do.
"Jessica, I know things haven't been easy for you, but you need to understand something. You. Aren't. Safe. You need to be more careful." He insisted. I managed my tears and crawled out from under my bed.
"I didn't ask for your help. I can take care of myself. Always have. Probably always will." I remarked. I looked up to see him sitting on my bed. He picked me up and set me on his lap.
"That kind of thinking is going to stop right now. You are not going to take care of yourself because you don't know what's best for you." He stated. "Oh, and you do?" I groaned. "Jessica, I'm doing the best I can! What more do you want from me?!" He exclaimed. "I don't want anything from you! Stay out of my way! I can handle things by myself." I screamed back, struggling to get away from him, but he was holding me really tight.
"You may not like me right now, but I am still your father. You will not talk to me like that. Do you understand me?" He said quietly. "No, you're not. I don't have a father." I growled. He held me tighter than necessary. It actually really hurts. I started struggling even harder.
"No you don't. Now you will listen to me and obey me or else your afternoons will be highly unpleasant. Do you want that Jessica." He asked. "You're hurting me! Let go!" I screamed. "No. Not until you learn to behave." He seethed. Suddenly, Lexaeus came into my room and ripped Daddy's hands away from me. I ran behind my silent hero. "What are you doing?" Daddy asked. "I'M going to take Jessica for a little bit. YOU are going to stay in the castle until I come back and then WE are going to talk about this." He stated.
He picked me up and walked through a dark corridor. "Are you alright." He asked. "Yes. Thank you." I thanked. "I only ask one thing in return. Try to get along with Even. I know it isn't always going to be easy, but he is your father." He said. "You know?" I asked, surprised. "Yes. He told me as soon as he found out that your mother was pregnant. He has always been like a brother to me and I am the same to him. We trust each other. Braig and Dilan know too. Although in my opinion, Braig has become untrustworthy." He explained. "You can say that again." I agreed.
So, is anyone actually reading this? I just don't know right now.
