Robbie's P.o.V
I rush over to Jade's house in my old clunker of a car. Why does it seem that all parents want to screw over their children recently? Jade's dad has some explaining to do, I thought I knew this man but I would never expect this from him.
I pull my car up in front of Jade's house. It's not like the other times I have been here. Before today I viewed the house in a warm welcoming way, part of my life that would always be positive. That was because before today the only time I came here was to look after Jade's sweet little sister Alice. Unfortunately, today is a dark day this is the home of a man who hurt my friends. If I am not going to let myself hurt my friends, I am sure as hell not going to let anyone else hurt them.
I walk up to the door, anger filling every corner of my mind. I am letting the red mist descend because this may be the best outlet for all my pain, because this is a man who I will never care for again. I slam my hand on the door repeatedly until someone opens it. At the sight of the person on the other side of the door I freeze.
Standing there with a huge smile plastered on her face is Alice. When she sees that it is me she squeals with delight and pulls me into a hug. Although she is only 7, she is surprisingly strong and I pick her up in my arms. With her giggles filling my ears, the red mist dissipates and I am now thinking clearly.
I can't let Alice, here, see me at my angriest. She means too much to me to destroy her innocence. That happened to me and you all know the results of that. But one thing is for sure her father isn't going to get off scot free.
"Hey Alice," I say, an empty smile plastering my face. My mind on more important things, such as how will her dad react when he sees me.
"Hey Robbie are you here to play?" she asks her voice full of hope.
"Not today," I respond, seeing the disappointment fall on her face. "I'm here to talk to your dad."
"Daddy!" Alice yells running back inside the house.
Two seconds later Mr West walks to the front door, eyeing me up and down. He must know the reason I'm here, well at least that it is something to do with Jade. The hate on his face was evident, he despised me just because I was now associated with his daughter.
"I'm here to talk to you about Jade" I say, just to clarify the purpose of me being here. It was also to break the silence. This man wasn't going to make my time here easy. Good! That makes it all the easier to hate him.
"Is she too scared to come here and speak to me herself?" he growled at me. This man, and I use the term loosely, isn't even bothering to be civil. Fine two can play at this game.
"Doubt it! I didn't think to ask her. Plus what is there to be scared of?" I reply in an even voice. "Anyway, I'm here for her stuff and obviously have a word with you."
He shifts his eyes to his daughter and decides to let me past. Without hesitation I head straight to Jade's room without looking back. The reason that I know where Jade's room is that Alice has shown me on my many tours of this house.
I head straight into Jade's closet and bring out a bag to put her stuff in. I start grabbing things from the closet and putting them in the bag. I notice, after a few trips to and from the closet, that Jade's dad is leaning against the door frame.
"I don't know why you're wasting your time on her. She isn't worth the hassle." Mr West snarls at me.
"I'll have you know that she is helping me through a tough time at the moment. Despite all the shit you are putting her through." I retort, allowing my voice to rise in anger.
At this point I am at Jade's dresser, still carefully selecting what I think she would want me to take.
"You know she calls you a talentless hack behind your back," he says a sickly smile on his face. With this I let the anger take over me but contain it to the task I am completing. I now yank the draws from the dresser and empty the contents into the bag.
"I would expect no less from a man like you." I explain in no more than a hoarse whisper.
"What's that suppose to mean?" he demands, letting spit explode from his mouth. I can't help but let a small smirk out at Cat's catchphrase being used.
"What I mean is that for a man who has thrown out a daughter still grieving for her mother and separates two sisters who love each other with all their hearts. There is no low point for you. You have resorted to insulting me, a family friend, someone who has helped you countless time just to try and hurt your daughter more." I explain, "You know what, I'm done." I pick up the bag and leave the room.
However at the bottom of the stairs I am met by the sight of a crying Alice. I kneel down and place the bag next to her. I reach out to her face with my hand and wipe away the tears.
"Now I know that the big, brave girl in front of me isn't crying over me. I'm not worth your tears." I say to her, giving her a weak smile.
"But now I've lost you and Jadey." She whispers.
"You will never lose either of us, you are always welcome in my home." I explain, pulling her into a hug.
I give Mr West a cold stare, trying to say to him that if she wants to come he better let her.
"You know what here is my number call me if you ever want to see either of us." I say, handing her a slip of paper.
Then I pick up the bag and leave the house slamming the door behind me.
