It was the day that they were to leave and Peter was talking to her dad. "Listen, Robert, if I hear that you hit her, than i swear to God that I will file for permanent custody as soon as I do. And, she will probably have outbursts, especially at school, and you'll need to pin her down or she'll hurt someone."
"Okay, Peter," Robert said in an annoyed voice. Peter looked behind him and saw Scott holding Kristin like she was only four or five. Robert turned around. "Scott?" he asked in surprise. "No I'm my dad," Scott said sarcastically. "Scott!" peter scolded.
"Bye, Scott," Kristin said, hugging his neck. Scott whispered in her ear, "you have the number. You know what to do if he, ya know..." SHe nodded and he put her down.
"Why don't you go get in the car?" RObert said cheerfully. She ignored him and ran for Peter. "I'm only going because you're making me," she reminded him angrily. "I know, I know," he said. "Listen, I'll see you soon, okay? Listen to him..now go get in the car," Peter said. "Listen to him no matter what you're feelings are," he then added.
She walked to the van and climbed in. There was a car seat next to her and she knew that must be where the baby-she didn't know what any of their names were yet-sat in the car.
THen Robert got into the car and they drove off. Kristin turned around and waved forlornly to Peter. He smiled a sad smile and waved back. Sophie then ran behind him and waved back, too. Scott had already started walking back.
"So, Kristin, what kinda music you listen to?" Leigh asked, she was driving. "ANything really. Except country," Kristin answered, resting her elbow on the arm rest and looking at the window.
"AH, you're just like your dad," Leigh started but Kristin interupted, "Don't you ever sya that!" Leigh seemed taken by surprise but sighed and glanced at Robert who looked away. "Kristin, we're putting all that behind us. Steven, what your dad did to you, all that," she said, "so I don't want to hear any more of that, okay?"
"What do you know?" Kristin mumbled back. "I know that you really need to drop the attitude. Regardless of what happened, he's your father and I'm your mother. We got married last week." She snapped.
"You're NOT my mother. My mom abadonded me. The only mom I got is Sophie." Kristin replied. Leigh just shook her head and focused on the road.
"So, uh, Kristin, you know you got two brothers now?" Robert asked timidly, trying to start up a conversation. "Yeah. I knew when you told me yesterday, too." she said, not trying to be rude but that was the fifth time he'd tried to start conversation with that sentance.
"Oh. Uh, sorry. Well, I don't think I told you their names yet. The baby is Sammy. Colt is four. He's real smart. Like you." He complimented. "Thanks," she mumbled.
"Well, we live in the same neighborhood. Jonathon, Andre, Adam, Brittany, Andy, Ben and everyone still live there. Except for Marquis and Shawna. They moved within a month of eachother." He explained. "Who would want Ben and Andy to still live there?" she asked. He broke a smile and his eyes met hers in the mirror [uh, what's that mirror that hangs from hte top of the car? Rear-view? Whatever. That's what I mean]. His eyes resembled hers a lot.
Two hours later of bits and pieces of conversations they drove up into the house Kristin hadn't seen in nearly six months.
She stepped out and the door opened. Soon, a German Shepard and a little boy stood before you. "Who you?" he asked. "I'm Kristin." she answered, "Who're you?" "I'm Colt. This is Pandy," he said and patted the huge dog that was almost taller than him. "Hi, Colt. Hi, Pandy," Kristin said and the boy giggled. "He can't answer, silly!" Kristin smiled. "He can't? Wow, I didn't know that!" and the boy giggled more.
Robert stepped behind Colt and places his hands on his shoulder. "Colt, remember I told you about your sister coming to live with us? This is her," He introduced them.
"Oh. Daddy has a picture of you. You have a bad boo-boo on your eye. Daddy said you ran into the door. Silly!" Colt exclaimed. Kristin looked back at her dad. He looked away. "Yeah, that's what happened alright," Kristin answered.
"You wanna see Sammy? He's my baby brudder!" colt exclaimed and grabbed her hand and pulled her to the house and inside, Pandy barking and following. Kristin saw a teenager holding a little baby boy dressed in Osh Kosh overalls. "Hi, you must be Kristin. I'm Diana, the baby-sitter," Diana greeted her warmly. Kristin half-smiled.
"Hi." she answered. "Oh, your dad talks so much about you. It's a wonder he sent you to boarding school!" Kristin looked confused, "Boarding school?" and her dad quickly said, "Yeah, kiddo, I explained how you went to boarding school this school year..but I missed you so much I demanded you come straight home," he said and let out a chuckle.
Kristin looked around the house, expecting to find the house in a complete mess. But, no. The floor was carpeted with different carpet. There was a fresh coat of paint and the house was mainly picked up except for toys belonging to Colt and Sammy.
The house didn't smell, either. Of nothing bad, anyway. It smelled fresh with a combination of flowers and candle scents.
Colt smiled up at her. "Do you like my house? Huh?" he asked in excitement. "Uh, yeah. I..I guess I do," she stammered.
