Chapter 30

Cartman's POV

Wendy, Isabella, and I arrive home and I see Shannon cleaning up. She has her back to us. "Hey Shannon, did Eric Theo give you a hard time?" I ask her.

"No, he was an angel." She smiles still not looking at us.

"Are you ready to meet your new sister?" Wendy asks her grinning.

"Of course!" She finally turns around and we notice that one of her eyes is swollen shut and black and blue.

"What the hell happened to you?" I ask her.

She shrugs. "It's nothing."

I examine her eye. "That's more than nothing! Who did this to you? Was it Kobe?" I'll kill that mini Jew rat!

"No! He wouldn't do that!"

"Then who did?"

She looks down. "It was Julia..."

"Julia!?" Wendy exclaims. "What's wrong with that damn heathen?"

"It's was totally my fault Ms. Wendy."

"How?"

"I did something to piss her off."

"That doesn't give her the right to put her hands on you!"

"I agree!" I step in. "Where is she so we can settle this?"

Shannon shrugs. "I'm not sure. She may be at grandma and grandpa's visiting Uncle Stan."

"Well she's going to bring her ass home right now!" Wendy states before handing Isabella to me. "I'm going to call them now!"

"Do you want to hold her?" I ask Shannon.

"Of course, that's what I've been waiting for!" She takes Isabella from me and sits down with her. I sit down beside her.

"So tell me what you did to make Julia hit you." I find it hard to believe that Shannon could upset someone to the point that they want to hit her.

"She's always telling me that I'm not good enough for Kobe so I wanted to make her look bad in front of him. I knew Dustin was her weakness so I text him telling him how much Julia missed him. He came over here and eventually they went upstairs. I invited Kobe over so that he would see Dustin and Julia together. Once she realized what I did, she kicked my ass."

"Dustin was here?" I shake my head. "Shannon, you know Wendy doesn't want him in this house!"

"I'm sorry dad. I wanted to teach Julia a lesson…I guess she ended up teaching me one. Not to mention that Kobe is upset with me too."

I nod and examine her eye. "Did you get your eye looked at?"

She shakes her head. "It's not that bad dad."

"Have you looked in the mirror?" I touch her face. "It's looks really bad honey."

"It's fine, it was a lot worse yesterday." She looks down at Isabella. "I can still see my new beautiful baby sister."

Just then Wendy comes back in the room. "Stan hasn't seen her and neither have his parents! When I find that girl she's so dead!"

I look at Shannon. "Can you take her upstairs?" I ask referring to Isabella. She nods and heads upstairs. I sit Wendy down and tell her the story Shannon told me.

"She's possibly with Dustin?" I nod. "She's not allowed back in this fucking house!" She screams.

"Calm down Wendy. She's only 17, you can't kick her out. Where is she going to go?"

"She can go to hell for all I care! I'm so sick of her disrespectful ass!"

I shush her so that Shannon can't hear what we're talking about. "She's still your daughter and a minor. At least wait until she's 18 before you kick her out."

She sighs heavily then smiles at me. "I'm so glad I married you, it's nice to have a husband that's on my side."

"I'm always on your side babe. I'm all for you kicking her ass out, but at least wait until she's legally an adult to do so. You have less than a year, you can make it."

"I'll wait, but when I see her and Dustin, I'm going to wring their necks!"

"Dustin definitely deserves that! How many times has he been told to stay away from Julia?"

"I think Julia is more to blame than he is! She didn't have to let him in the house."

"You're right." I put my arms around her. "You just got home. You need to relax. Let me deal with the Julia drama for now, ok?"

She nods in agreement. "You're the boss!"

I laugh. "Since when?"

"Since I'm too tired to argue with you." She kisses me. "I'm going to check on Isabella. It's about time for another feeding."

"Ok, I'll go and fetch Julia and bring her home."

She kissed me again. "Thank you baby. I love you!"

"I love you too." I head out. Dustin and Julia aren't that smart, I know they didn't go far and I'm sure I don't have to go any further than Bebe's house to find them.

Kenny's POV

Bebe called me to come over to talk to Dustin because he's still screwing around with Julia after we've specifically told him not to. Unfortunately the conversation isn't going that well because he's not showing any interest in what I have to say. "Did you hear what I said?" I yell at him.

"Yes, but I don't give a fuck!" Dustin yells back.

"Dustin, he's still your father!" Bebe steps in. "Show some respect."

"How can you show him any respect? He cheated on you with Grandpa! Or did you forget why you divorced his sorry ass?"

Before Bebe can say anything, I get in Dustin's face. "This isn't about me! It's about you!" He turns away from me. "Do you hear me talking to you?"

"I don't care what you have to say!"

"Julia is still is a child! Wendy and Cartman have been very nice by not calling the police on you!"

Dustin rolls his eyes. "You act like she's 13 or something. She's nearly legal!"

"Nearly isn't legal!"

"Whatever! You're in no position to judge me!"

"Look at me!" Grab him and turn him around. He responds by shoving me the ground.

"Don't touch me, you FAGGOT!" My jaw drops when I hear that.

"Dustin…" Bebe whispers.

I stand up and he looks as if he's going to attack me again, but Bebe holds him back. "That's right, I called you a faggot! That's exactly what you are! Go on back to your little butt fucking boyfriend! It's about time for you to suck his dick, isn't it?"

"I'm still your father damnit!" I tell him as my face turns red.

"I stopped respecting you not only as a father, but as a man, when I caught you cheating on mom with another man!" He grabs his keys and heads for the door, but I stop him. He shoves me again. "I said don't touch me!"

"I'm not done! You better stay away from Julia! You're really pressing your luck!"

"I don't want to hear what your bitch ass has to say!" He shoves me to the ground again.

"He's right Dustin!" Bebe steps in. "The Cartman's are fed up with you."

"I don't care, they can't stop me and neither can the two of you!" With that he storms out.

Bebe touches my shoulder. "You ok, pumpkin?" She asks gently.

I nod and stand up. "Pumpkin? You haven't called me that since high school." I laugh. "You got me feeling a little nostalgic."

"I just wanted to make sure you weren't hurt."

"I'm not hurt. He shoved me, it's not a big deal."

"Did he hurt your feelings? You know, by calling you the F word?"

I shake my head. "I wasn't expecting it, but it didn't hurt my feelings."

"That's good." There's a bit of awkward silence between us.

"I better get going." I tell her.

"Do you have to leave already?"

"I probably should." I head for the door, but Bebe stops me.

"Before you go, can you take a look at the toilet upstairs? One of the kids clogged it up again and I can't afford a plumber." I nod and head upstairs. I know what this is really code for…

Stan's POV

I'm preparing chicken parmesan, buttered noodles, and an Italian salad for dinner with merlot to drink. Susan is joining me and my parents for dinner. Invited Julia to attend as well. Susan and I have been dating for 6 months now so I think it's time for the two of them to meet. Susan is talking to my parents in the living room while I put the finishing touches on dinner. I call Julia to see why she hasn't arrived yet.

"Hey daddy!" She answers.

"Hi honey! Dinner is almost ready, are you still coming?" I ask.

"Well…" I can feel an excuse coming already.

"Come on Juju, I really want you to be here."

"Why? It's just dinner. We can have dinner anytime."

"There's someone I want you to meet!" I look at Susan and smile.

"Do you have a girlfriend?"

"Yes! I've been seeing her for 6 months. I meet her on that dating website. I owe it all to you."

She sighs. "Daddy, I'm glad you're moving on and dating, I really am, but I'm not ready…"

My smile turns into a frown. "Not ready for what?"

"Within the last year, I've gained a stepfather and two new siblings. I'm really not ready to add anymore new people into my life."

"It's just dinner."

"Ok, so what if this doesn't work out? Then I have to meet the next one and the one after that and so on until you find the right one."

I never looked at it that way. "You're right. I'm sorry Juju."

"Me too. We'll have dinner, just the two of us some other time. Maybe if you're still dating, what's her name?"

"Susan…"

"If you're still dating Susan in another 6 months, I may be open to meeting her."

"I'll hold you to that."

"Enjoy dinner." She hangs up. I take the chicken out of the oven and head into the living room.

"Dinner is served." I inform everyone.

"Where's Juju?" Mom asks.

I shake my head. "She's not going to be able to make it."

"Aw man, I was really looking forward to meeting her." Susan tells me.

"Maybe another time." I smile. Everyone fixes their plates and we sit down to eat. Suddenly the doorbell rings. "Maybe Juju changed her mind!" I get up and head to the door. I don't know why she would ring the doorbell when she has a key. I open the door and it's a lady around mom's age with a baby. "Hi, may I help you?"

She nods. "Are you Stan Marsh?"

"Yes ma'am."

"I'm Lisa White, Liz's mom."

Wow, I almost forgot all about Liz. "Hi, nice to meet you. Again, how may I help you?"

She hands the tiny baby to me. "I came by to drop him off with you, this is your son Eli." I look down at the baby and back at her in complete and utter shock…
