Daddy's Love

Chapter 29: 29 - Downhill

I walk in the Grey House right after Ana called and sent Ana away to her room, instructing her not to

come out until any of us get her.

I walk to the backyard where Christian is raging. I wonder what went wrong. Nothing comes to my mind

that could make him go this crazy. Did Ana tell him about our secret? But he wouldn't be this mad

surely?

"Grey.... "

He turns around and punches me hard on my nose. I am disoriented for a bit, about to fall down.

"What the real fuck?!" I block his second punch.

"Calm down you...." Another punch.

"I will kill you, you asshole!" He starts hitting me. I don't want to hit him back. Yet.

"What the fucks matter with you!? Have you gone mad?" I hold his hand, preventing him from hitting

me.

"You fucking touched Ana! I am going to kill you!" He hits me again.

I hit him back. He falls down.

"What?! I did not!"

"What's your secret!? What have you been doing to her!?" He screams.

"Call Ana, ask her." I tell him regaining composure.

"She told me, you bastard." He gets up to hit me again. I block his punch. He is bleeding profusely. I

don't want to hit him again.

"Call her down you overdramatic asshole. Calm down and talk to her. There has been some

misunderstanding."

"Ana! Niannnaaaa! Come down right now!" He bellows.

"Yeah scaring her this way will definitely make her talk." I sit down on the grass.

Grey regains composure. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Ana sees us peeking from behind the door.

"Come here baby." Christian calls her.

She looks at me. I nod encouragingly.

"Baby, sweety, what did Jay do to you?" He asks.

She looks flummoxed. "Nothing.... "

"But you said you were doing something when Carol asked him for cummies, remember?"

She looks at me again and this annoys Grey.

"Don't be scared of him, baby. Tell me, what were you doing?"

"She is scared of you bat face. Ana, go on, tell him what were we doing."

She whispers something inaudible.

"Baby, I can't hear a thing."

"We.... Were making a birthday card and cake for your birthday tomorrow."

Grey looks like he is choking on air.

"But you said he touched you.... "

"Obviously, he fed me, changed my diaper, and also tickled me when I spoiled the card and was in a

very bad mood." Ana says like it's the most obvious thing in the world.

I stand up and turn to go back home.

"Jay.... "

"Stop." I turn around and look at him "Stay away from me and Carol henceforth." I want to storm out but

Ana starts crying hysterically and I can't bring myself to leave her without an explanation.

I kneel down and hug her. "Hey big girl, don't cry, it's not your fault. Okay? You did not do or say

anything wrong. I promise you that."

"but… now.... I no play with you anymore? No Carol?" She sobs.

No matter how hard I try I cannot bring myself to say that she can. I kiss her forehead and leave

without a backward glance to Grey. I don't have to look at him to know what he looks like right now.
