Ch4- really ….
The drive to my dad's was a silent one I wasn't in the mood to talk after what happened at school and I could see my mum was nervous about something. I didn't press her to find out what it was so I left her to her own thoughts. I looked out the window to see if anything had changed since the last time I was here as far as I could see nothing had; it was still the boring, depressing and ugly town of forks! Just thinking I was back here made me wonder why… why mum had all of a sudden up and move us back here? She doesn't even like my dad that much that's why she left him…right?
I didn't get that much time to expand on that thought because before I knew it we were here. I stepped out of my mums car and looked at the house… it was just as it was when we left it, a 3 bedroom old fashioned Victorian style house with white painted windows and a big brown wooden door the only thing that had changed was that it looked old, like it needed a face lift or something. The door opened and out rushed my dad…I think. Well I knew it was him but he just looked so different. So old. He now had a moustache and his usual muscular self was now thin and fragile looking. I mean I just wasn't the dad I knew… I guess that happens when your father doesn't bother to see you for god knows how many years then all of a sudden you're living just around the corner!
"Renée, Isabella come in. Dinners almost finished." He said while hugging my mum. When he went to hug me I just walked past him and into the house. I could hear them whispering behind me but I couldn't care what they were saying I just wanted this night to be over with… no scrap the I just wanted this DAY to be over with!
I walked into the house and I felt as if I had gone back in time… back in time when things were simple and my family got along. When we would spend every Sunday as a family, playing board games and eating dinner together. It's funny how things change. I walked into the dining room and saw the same old wooden oak table that my mum had brought at a flea market when I was 4; the table was covered in a white sheet with three plates and knifes 'n' forks placed upon it. I turned to see my parents standing together staring at me "what?" I asked.
"Nothing it's just good to see you Isabella you have grown up so much." My dad said with a smile on his face. "It wouldn't seem so drastic if you would have bothered to see me once and a while!" I said in a stern voice. "ISABELLA! That is no way to speak to your father!" my mother screamed.
"It's true I haven't seen him in years and now we're back here having dinner with him I'm not being funny mum but this is all very confusing to me! So sorry if I'm not taking this all too well" I replied back with anger in my voice. "Renée let me handle this… I now your upset sweetie I understand that but there is a reason you are back here… so why don't you just give it a chance and lets have dinner I want to make up for the time I have missed." He said to me sincerely.
"Fine" I said as I sat at the mum followed and my dad disappeared into the kitchen. I could feel my mums eyes burning a hole into my face but I avoided eye contact I knew she would be angry at me for saying what I did but I'm not a big believer in keeping your feeling inside, I think you should (as my old kindergarten teacher used to say) "set them free". "Isabella look at me please." My mum said with her no nonsense voice. I turned to look at her and she said "just give him a chance please." The look on her face was as if she was pleading to me, but I just couldn't understand why? Just as I was about to ask her why it was so important, my dad walked back into the room with a piping hot dish of freshly made lasagne. I could tell it was freshly made because he never ate shop brought.
"Thanks" I said with a smile. I took a great big chunk out of the dish and dumped it onto my plate. "So how have you been?" he asked
"Erm ok I suppose just normal stuff…school you know." I replied but the thing was even though he nodded I knew he didn't know what the 'normal stuff' was. How could he? "So no boyfriends then?" he asked innocently. To say I almost choked was the understatement of the century I spat my food across the table which landed on my mum's plate and said "excuse me! I mean you tell me to give you a chance then you try to invade my personal life I'm sorry 'dad' but that anit happening I haven't seen you in so many years and you just want to play happy families all because you can be bothered now! No I'm sorry that is not happening!" I screamed as I stormed out.
I mean he can't just try to do that he don't have the right. Maybe if he was a proper dad and did the things he was supposed to like erm I don't know… maybe help fucking raise me then I just might answer that question but no he hasn't even been there! I could hear them shouting me to come back but I didn't even turn around I just kept on walking. I knew I may have over reacted but I didn't want to be there anymore and pretend we're a family again. Eventually I broke out into a run and headed for an old spot I remembered from my childhood here… my own little meadow.
When I got there I could see a figure sitting in the middle of the grass… in my spot…in MY MEADOW! No one knew about this place I don't see how they could it's too well hidden you would have to go searching for it or hiking to even come along the trail let alone find the bloody thing. As I stepped forward a twig snapped under my foot and the stranger turn around. Io was prepared for an argument on how he got here but what I wasn't prepared for was to see that the stranger was….
