Chapter10

#Chapter10

I sit behind the table, barely containing my anger and waiting for Axel to emerge from the bathroom.

A lot of things confuse me; how does he know where I live? What did he tell my mother? Where are we going? Why would he want to spend time with me? What the hell does he think he's doing, threatening me? What is he even capable of? Would he care if I liked Theo? I thought he hated me.

Is it true what he said last night?

And, if it is, do I feel the same?

I groan to myself, needing answers.

/"You should eat, you know. We might come back late./" Axel's voice suddenly says, startling me. /"And by eat, I don't mean your nails./"

I give him the most hateful look I can muster and watch him sit down, chuckling. /"Don't tell me what to do. You're not my dad./"

He shrugs. /"True, but I can still be your daddy./" he whispers and continues to eat his pancakes like he didn't just say something extremely inappropriate.
