Charlene’s P.O.V
Charlene was shaking when went on her way to her fathers study leaving the others behind. She wasn’t scared of him. She loved her father more than anything. Its just she doesn’t want to lie to her father why she left and why she never kept in touch. She will probably tell him when she sees him. She was afraid of that. It all comes down to her stepmother. Charlene still remembered that day…
*****************************Flash back*******************************
Charlene came home happily to see her family. She couldn’t wait. It’s been four years since she hasn’t come back. Her life in America couldn’t be better that her life with her family. She missed them all. She was smiling all the way on the flight. But soon that faded when she saw her stepmother home. She was waiting for her on the doorstep. She found it odd because she never told anyone she was coming. She wanted it to be a surprise.
‘What are you doing here?’ her stepmother, Cecilia, coldly asked.
‘I…I…came ho…home,’ Charlene stuttered. She was scared of her the second she entered their home. She couldn’t talk to her without stuttering. It was always like this to her.
‘Home?’ Cecilia snickered. ‘This is not your home!’
‘Is…is…erm…my father home?’ Charlene ignored her stepmother last retort.
‘No. I’m glad I seen you first coming,’ Cecilia glared at her. ‘Your not welcome here!’
‘But…but why?’ Charlene was confused. She didn’t thin her stepmother will go this far. Her father wouldn’t allow that. Even though he agreed with her for her to go to boarding school, he wouldn’t agree for her to not come home again. He will hit the roof when he finds out.
‘Listen, I know what your thinking, that your father won’t let that happen. Let me tell you something,’ she was came face to face with her. ‘If you stay then I’m going.’
**********************End of flash back*********************************
Charlene came out of her memory when someone opened the study. She froze. It was her father.
‘Darlin’, our back!’ her father came and hugged her. Charlene never expected that. She thought her father would act different. She was close to tears. She hugged her father back as if there’s no tomorrow.
‘Father!’ Charlene cried out. She let her tears fall down her cheek.
‘Don’t cry, baby.’ His voice cracked when he said that. ‘Baby, why didn’t you come back?’
‘I’m so sorry,’ she sobbed. ‘I missed you so much!’
He pulled back. He led her inside his study and sat her down on his chair. He then got another chair for himself and sat down opposite her. There was silent there. Charlene was sobbing with her head bent. Her father was staring at her.
‘Charlene why didn’t you come back?’ Charlene sobbed louder now. She didn’t know if she could tell him. ‘Honey, please. Tell me,’ her father was in a verge of crying. He wants her to give a good reason. To say it’s his fault. To say something. But she kept crying. He pulled back the tears and was furious. He couldn’t take it any longer. ‘Stop it!’ he shouted. ‘Stop this nonsense! If you didn’t want to come back then why don’t you just say so?’
Charlene got scared. This was the first time that her father raised his voice on her. He would never do that before. She was shaking. She stood up slowly but didn’t look at him. She was still looking down.
When Clive realised what he had done he quietly dissolved his anger and saw his daughter shaking. He felt guilty. He stepped closer to her but she stepped back. Tears fell down his cheeks. His daughter was scared of him.
‘Honey,’ he started. He couldn’t finish. She ran out of the room. She ran away from her father. She didn’t want to but she was scared, for the first time in her life. Her father was the world to her, but now she didn’t know what he was.
