I opened the front door to our beautiful two-story home. Between Alice and me we were able to get all of my bags at once. The yelling coming from the living room was so loud I placed the bags by the front stairs so I could go and see what was going on. When I walked into the living room there was glass everywhere.
M "You killed her, bastard! That's why you're not showing any emotion." Michael yelled towards Edward.
E "I did not kill your mother. I loved her. I miss her but there is nothing I can do about it." Edward replied with concern. "Michael, please put the vase down, you are going to hurt someone."
M "The only person I'm going to hurt is you, you fucking bastard!" Michael yelled, and threw the vase at Edwards head. Edward ducked just in time causing the vase to shatter against the wall.
B "Michael, stop! You need to calm down!" I yelled, looking in his direction.
M "Bella, you're sticking up for him. Of course, you would, you let him move in here without asking me my opinion." Michael said to me in anger.
B "I didn't ask because I thought you would be ok with it. He's your father, I know you have problems with him but until I know what the problem is I can't do anything. You need to grow up and talk like an adult instead of taking your hurt and anger out by going to bars, sitting with sluts, and throwing things." I said back in anger. Immediately, I was sorry for bringing the night before into this argument. During this time, I noticed Alice sneak out the door, not wanting to be a witness to this argument.
M "Bella, I'm sorry about last night. It was nothing. I needed to get away from him so I went to the bar. Lauren sat down and asked if I was doing ok. She was about to get up from the table when you walked in. I'm sorry I responded the way I did. But, you showed up with my father. I was already angry and that was the final straw." Michael replied more calmly.
B "Thank you for apologizing but I need a little time. Please in the future don't leave like that without telling me. Now can you please tell me what's going on?" I asked looking between the two men.
E "I confronted him about last night and" Edward started to say
M "Don't talk to my wife!" Michael interrupted.
B "If you don't want him talking to me then tell me what's going on." I said back to my husband
M "He was on my case about last night. I told him it wasn't his place and to leave it alone. He wouldn't leave it so it escalated. I'm sorry I threw your vases but he wouldn't leave me alone."
B "Why, when I walked in were you accusing him of murdering your mother?"
Michael looked everywhere but at me and yelled. "Because he hated her. He probably started the fire."
E "I wouldn't kill your mother. I did love her. Everything I ever did was for her and you."
M "You did everything for us?" He asked in complete disdain.
They began arguing again. Back and forth like a tennis match my eyes watched. I eventually left the room, tired of hearing and watching the stupid fight. I headed upstairs to the guest bathroom to take a long bath. Even though Michael apologized I wasn't completely ready to forgive him so, I would be spending another night in the guest room.
I must have dozed off because the next thing I knew, I was waking to the sound of someone coming into the bathroom. After my eyes adjusted I realized Edward had walked in and he was staring down at me.
