Chapter Fourteen
"Why?" Kriss asked hurtfully "why do you want to go with your father?"
"It's not just dad" Damien answered, "it's Llewey and Jim-Bexley too"
"Why?" Kriss asked, "You see them once a month anyway"
"I miss them mum" Damien confessed, "They're my brothers"
"You've got Theo"
"He hates me, mum, he never plays with me and he says he's not my brother! Llewey and Jim-Bexley always include me in what they're doing, they never tell me that they hate me"
"Okay" Kriss smiled at her youngest son, "I'll miss you"
"I'll miss you too, mum but I need to do this"
Kriss gave Damien a hug and kiss; she healed him so tight and didn't want to let go.
"So you're okay with this?" Damien asked her "you wont be cross with me?"
"No" Kriss assured him "I'm not angry at all!"
Kriss never liked saying goodbye to her children, but this was horrible. She was loosing three children and she felt for Izzy, she was loosing her twin. Tears filled Kriss' eyes as Dave, Llewey, Jim-Bexley and Damien flew off into deep space. She could only mourn for a few minutes though because baby Lorena started crying and reality struck. She stood for a few minutes before going into motherly autopilot and feeding her baby daughter.
It was Chloë who found her father collapsed on the bed. There was nothing physically wrong with him he was just very upset
"Dad" Chloë asked, "Are you okay?"
"I just miss her so much" Arnold sobbed, "I want my wife back"
"You mean Yvonne?" Chloë asked
"Of course" Arnold snapped. Chloë's face dropped and you could see she was about to cry, "I'm sorry Chloë" Arnold apologised "I'm so sorry"
"It's okay dad" suddenly Chloë's eyes lit up. An idea was forming in her little mind "why don't you get back with mum?"
"She'd never have me"
