Bobby's Daughter
I do not own anything you recognize…
Chapter Five
"So," I asked, setting a cup of coffee in front of him. I set my own cup of tea down at the dining room table before grabbing a seat across from him. "What do you know about Mr. Singer?"
We had made our way downstairs after Dean promised not to tear up my walls with rock salt. I made him coffee and we decided to talk in the dining room, because, frankly, this was the only room not truly haunted.
"You mean your dad?" He took a sip of the coffee.
"Mr. Singer," I corrected. "He wasn't around enough to earn the title."
Dean bit back an 'oh'. "Well, talk about dysfunctional."
I shot him a look. "Dean…"
"Bobby and my dad were friends. They sort of had a small falling out."
"How small?"
"Think Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton."
I nodded. "Oh."
"Yeah. Bobby's helped us time and time again. With anything supernatural."
I laughed sarcastically. "Sounds like my father."
"He's a good guy, Syd. Just a little… supernatural oriented."
"Yeah. I could tell you his family came last."
"Listen," he said, sternly. "I'm not the one to talk about family dynamics. I'm just telling you what I know about your dad. Alright?" I bit back a comment and nodded. "He's in South Dakota and lives at the Singer Salvage Yard – his own business."
"Figured as much. Any little brothers and sisters I should know about?"
"Syd," he said, grinding it out more than speaking it. "You and your dad might not get along. And I don't care what you think of him. But if you ever think he's immoral – you're as wrong as… as…"
"He was for leaving me," I suggested.
"Yeah. Yeah." We were silent for a little while, each to our own thoughts. "So what do you know about the supernatural world?"
"Enough."
"Enough as in I can't get enough of Playboy or enough as in I've had enough of Kevin Federline's singing?"
I rolled my eyes. "Enough as in I don't go out and look for the things but I know how to protect myself from them." He nodded and we fell into a little silence. "Tell me about your life."
"My life," he chuckled.
"Yeah," I said with a soft smile. He watched my eyes for a second before deciding it'd be okay.
"My dad raised Sammy and I to hunt. Kind of been doing that ever since. We're searching for a demon."
"Something that took your Mom?" He looked startled. "Well, you didn't mention a mother, so…"
"Yeah." We fell silent again. "Is that road haunted?"
"Huh?"
"The road my brother disappeared on."
