"Where you going?" My Mom asked me, as she stood up from where she was sitting "I'm going back to my friend's house." I said as I sighed deeply, I look at to my Dad he cannot even look at me straight in the eye. "Please don't do this, you just arrived here 2 days ago." My Mom begged me to stay as she held my wrist. "Mom, I just want to cool down myself. I'm sorry, please don't cry over me. I'll be back. I just needed time to... To forgive Dad but not now. Sorry I hope you understand." I said and smiled at her weakly, Dad's eye was on me so I was too. "Trust is years to build, seconds to break but forever will marked in the mind of people who let you down, I'm sorry for disrespecting you last night, but I just needed time." I said sincerely while looking through his eyes, he didn't say any words but I can say he was happy to hear those words from me, and he just nod instead like he even understand what am I trying to say. He is still my Dad and I should still respect him even if I'm mad nor he done something wrong, I still need to apologize for what I did last night. I smiled weakly and go... ~~~~~ I'm just in the arrival area when I see some familiar face not so far where am I. Hell, he is not just any other faces I really know who he was, what are he doing here?! His head keep looking from left to right until his eyes landed to mine, he walked straight to me when he sees me. "Val texted me that you're going home last night and she also text me th-wait! I've told you so many times before that you can also text or call me if you have a problem or something.." Okay so Valerie texted him to fetch me here?? "I'm sorry I don't want to bother you because I thought you are with Chloe." I said as I walk rolling my eyes on him, his forehead creased as he followed me. "How many times I have to told you that we are not dating?" He said, we already reached the parking lot, he put my thing to the trunk of his car. "Okay, okay. I know because you're gay? Fine. As you said so?" I said as I hop in his car, damn excuses. "What was that? You more sounds like a J word to me." He said chuckling "J word?" I asked him as he start the engine of his car and drove, My eyes widen when I just figured out what he was just trying to say. "I'm not jealous of her!" I said defensively, but he just chuckle and shakes his head from left to right "What so funny?! I'm not jealous okay? I. AM. NOT!" I said as I emphasized the words I am not, why would he even think that?! He giggles. "Okay as you said so?" He said as he continued to drive, I look at through my window beside me and I realized that he is taking different path. "Hey! Where are we going?" I asked furrowing my brows as I look to the road that we are taking in "My parents house? Since Val and Casey aren't there you should stay in mine." "WHAT?! NO WAY!!" I groaned, It's not that I don't want to go to their house, but I'm afraid of meeting someone's Parents. "Why?" He ask furrowing his brows, while his eyes still focused on the road "My Parents are cool yet my siblings are weird and I've told them already lately before I go to the airport that I am going to fetch you." He added "What?!" But why? "Can you just quit questioning me?" He said and I just close my mouth and didn't bother to talk again and turn my head in the right side instead. We took 45 minutes before we got here in his hometown, my heart began to race faster as I looked at a not so older man that already in 50's years of age? Maybe its his Dad with a lil kid? Maybe its his just little brother? I swallow my own saliva from the thought that I'm going to meet his Parents. I went out in the car with a shaky toes, I can't stand straight seriously because I'm literally shaking, and its not a fucking joke! I wait for Greyson to come out in the car because I really don't know what to do here, a woman came and she smiled at me, and I did the same thing but nervously. "You must be Krystal? Kristine? I'm sorry what's your name again?" A woman with 40's years of age I think, she's gorgeous. "Khryzel." I chuckle and she was too "I'm sorry, my bad. I'm Lisa Chance by the way. I'm Greyson's Mom." She introduced herself to me, and take me by surprise when she hugged me, I don't know that they are welcoming like this. "Hey Mom." Greyson said and we pulled out hugging each other, he kiss his Mom on her cheek "Where's Dad?" Greyson ask his Mom "He is with Tyler, you know that kid he really loves his grandpa." Her Mom chuckle and he was too. "Come on guys! Get inside. I know you guys are hungry so I cooked some 'Mexican food.'" Her Mom said as she went inside their house, Greyson and I left alone outside. "I told you, they're cool." He said, but I just rolled my eyes on him. ~~~~~ Greyson introduced me to the member of their Family, like his Dad was Scott, his Brother is Tanner and his sister Alexa and the son of Tanner Tyler, he was so cute and a smart kid as I can say. "So when is the wedding?" I choked suddenly when Tanner said that, Greyson whine "Tanner please stop?!" He makes a stare that both of them can just only understand. Alexa chuckles. "I'm sorry they are just like that." She apologized and I just smile shyly "So what you gonna do in living?" His Dad asked me "I'm... I'm studying a pediatrics in the same University where Greyson in." I utterly said "How about your Parents? What occupation of your Parents?" "Well uhm.. My Mom working as a Therapist while My Dad was an Engineer." I said looking down to my plate, Greyson look at me like he already knows that my family is very sensitive topic for me. "Dad please stop asking her about her family." Greyson said to his Dad "Why?" His Dad ask as he stares at me "It's seems like they have a great family?" His Dad said as he look to his son, Greyson. Well, we used too. "Do you have any problem of dealing your family?" His Mom asked me "Mom!" Greyson said as he tried to stop her Mom, I just smiled at them weakly and glance back again to my plate "It's okay. Well, I don't have any problem of dealing my family back then. We're okay... They might got busy because of their work but my Mom and Dad makes a time for us every Sunday.." I said as I weakly smiled, Greyson was just staring at me, shaking his head from left to right. "But all of a sudden in my Mom's Birthday, in her own Birthday that we celebrated some uninvited guest went in and blurted it out that she was having an affair with my Dad." They all listened as I talk "Many of my Mom relatives hated my Dad for doing that to her to us, they really want my Dad die because of that. So yeah days, weeks passed but that's the time when my Dad still in love with his Mistress that he chooses her over us, over his family. He just left us like almost like we're nothing to him." I pauses "If you don't feel comfortable sharing it with us, just don't continued it." Her Mom smiles at me as she squeezed my right hand and hugged me tightly, I don't know but when she does that my tears began to fall. "I don't know what you're feeling right now sweetie, but we're here. We are ready to be your second family." Her Mom said "Thank you Mrs. Chance." I said as I smiled weakly "You're too formal just call me, Mom Lisa and my Husband a Dad Scott." I looked at his Dad and he just nod at me like he was really agreed to call him a Dad Scott. Impossible. I have a 2nd family already, yet they are all nice. I hope it wasn't a dream, because if this is a dream I would never ever want to wake up. "Yeah that's why I'm telling you all guys, when's the wedding?!" Tanner asked again as he stood up and clapped his hands, they are all laugh even me, except Greyson. "Shut up Tanner!" Greyson groan and I can say he is totally annoyed.
