Chapter 5: The Truth Bomb
Nessie's POV
My mom continued to attack my father like some sort of vicious animal. Just before Jacob could attack my father as well the family somehow managed to restrain Jacob even though he was still in wolf form. It took all of the men in my family to successfully restrain him though.
Meanwhile the women had to pull my mom off of my father before she could do any further damage. She had already managed to rip off one of his arms.
"What is going on here?!" Esme said.
"I think Renesmee should explain. Or better yet Edward should explain exactly what he did two and a half years ago that resulted in my daughter running away!" my mother shouted angrily.
Everyone's eyes, including my fathers, snapped to me. For a minute all of the tension in the room evaporated. Shock being the now dominant emotion on their faces.
"Nessie?!" everyone seemed to scream at the same time. Next thing I know is that I'm suddenly in a sea of hugs. I'm being passed around from one family member to another.
"Renesmee what-"
"How-"
"What is going on here?"
I felt like hundreds of questions were being hurled at me at the same time. I didn't answer right away. Instead I stared at my father. He's looking at me in shock and also a bit of anger was mixed in his expression.
Suddenly I'm feeling overwhelmed. All of the emotions of today seemed to have caught up with me at once. But I knew that my family was waiting for answers and they deserved to get those answers.
I was afraid though. I was afraid of how they would react when they found out about my boys. I was afraid of how they would react when they found out it was my father that kicked me out of the house when he found out that I was pregnant.
"I was pregnant" I finally said.
"What?" everyone said at the same time. I would have left had the situation not been so serious.
"I was pregnant" I repeated. "But when my dad found out he didn't like that very much" That was a huge understatement.
"Nessie show them what you showed us" My mother said. "Show them exactly what he said and did. They need to know"
"Know what?" Esme asked.
I took a deep breath as I prepared to relieve the memory again. Part of me just wanted this to be over with already so that I would not have to keep reliving the memory.
I held my hand up to her face and dredged up the memory again. Once I was done I did the same with the rest of my family.
Everyone was now staring at my father. My father actually looked scared now. Really scared. I had a feeling it just wasn't the looks of death that my family was giving him that scared him. No. It must have been what they were thinking.
"Edward how could you do something like this?" Esme was the one to ask.
Next thing I know everybody is screaming at my father. It was hard for me to discern what they were saying. Extremely hard.
The only things that I could successfully make out were "Edward" and "how could you do this" and "How can you be so cruel to your own daughter"
Other then that it just seemed more like a bunch of yelling to me.
Rosalie even attempted to attack my father herself.
My father never once spoke a single word throughout the whole could he say? He could not deny what happened after I had shown them all the proof of what he had said to me. Of what he had done.
There was no denying anything.
My mother then threw herself at my father again. This time no one attempted to stop her.
"Edward how could you do this to me?! To us?! To your own daughter?! To your grandchildren?!" my mother continued to scream over and over as she attacked him. "Don't you have anything to say for yourself?!" my mother shouted at him.
"What?" my father said. "That she was an embarrassment to me? That she went against everything that we taught her? That she was just a disappointment to us? It would have broken your heart to know that she was pregnant that's why I made her leave. It was better that way" he said. "My feelings have not changed at all"
My father's words stung me. The pain that I felt two years ago when he first told me the very same thing was renewed afresh. No matter what he was my father. Anything bad he said about me hurt like you would not believe.
If there was still any doubt that my mom was angry it was gone now. For her anger seemed to increase 100 times. The rational part of her mind seemed to have completely evaporated into thin air.
This time it wasn't just my mom attacking him. It was everyone else, except my grandparents. Emmett, Jasper, Alice, Rosalie, and Jacob (still a wolf) joined the fray.
"You think her leaving didn't break my heart?!" My mother bellowed. "You think it was better if I constantly worried about her?! You think it was better that I go crazy looking for her?! You think it was better that MY daughter suffered?!"
The attack of my father slowed down at that point. Now he was missing both of his arms, as well as a leg. I would have barfed had there been blood.
"You know what Edward? Leave and don't you ever come back!" mother screamed at him. "I never want to see you again and you can be sure that there will be a divorce! After what you did the only person I consider an embarrassment and disappointment to this family is you! Now leave so I can help MY daughter and MY grandchildren. If I ever see you again I swear I will-"
My mom could not even say her threat out loud. But it was loud and clear what she meant.
