Chapter 3

[Chapter 3]

A few moments later we arrived at the station so I immediately left and then entered the station.

When I entered I saw four being interviewed by two policemen.

Jun looked at me and was about to kick me but the police stopped him so I raised an eyebrow at him.

Colden arrived and struggled even harder but was immediately apprehended by the police.

We sat in front of them and now, we are side by side again. I can hardly figure it out.

"Now tell me how it all started?" Question of a policewoman.

I just glared.

"hier sind wir wieder mit diesen erklärungen" (here we go again with those explanations) I whispered make them looked at me even Colden.

"What did you say, miss?" The policewoman asked but I just shook my head.

"So what happened?" She asked again but no one spoke to us. "Miss?" She asked me so I looked at him.

I looked at the four men in front of us and then glared at them.

"I was cleaning the table when they came in and shouted 'Colden!'." I started. "I would have approached them a while ago but our chef called me right away so that's what I took care of first. When I delivered their order, I heard the bottle break and when I came back, Jun was yelling at him. Jun punched Colden that's why I could no longer hold back and I immediately went to where they were. I helped Colden to stand up and they started to say that he's a player. That he's a playboy and he dated Jun's girlfriend." I said as I glared at Colden.

"And then I told them that they don't have the rights to punch him even though Colden really did it. I also explained that I know the feeling of being betrayed or being played. But then Jun started to walk towards me. I admit, I insulted Jun because of his breath. But it's fucking true. It's so disgusting." I said then looked at Jun as if disgusted.

"Then?"

"Then he started chasing me using punches but then they were wrong by the opponent. They don't have an idea that I knew anything about martial arts." I said and smirked. "And then it all happened and Jun get the small knife from his pocket and tries to hurt me." I explained.

The police nodded.

"What's your relation with them?" She asked and I shook my head.

"I don't know them especially this asshole." I replied then looked sharply at Colden.

"Then why do you know them?" She asked again.

"Of course I heard it from their mouths." I replied annoyed. Lots of annoying questions!

"Okay. Thank you, miss...?"

"Solenne—" I never finished what I was going to say when someone suddenly shouted my full name.

"SOLENNE KLEIN!" its loud cry when it sees me.

"Here we go again." I whispered so the police and Colden looked at me.

"You bitch kid! You've done nothing but give me a headache!" It was loud but I just rolled my eyes.

"Mommy, we're just interviewing your son." Said the police.

"She's not my mom." I said as I cut her words. "Can I go now?" I asked and she nod.

When I got up, she immediately pulled me by the arm so I immediately struggled.

"What?!" I shouted so they all looked at us.

Suddenly I felt her hand on my face. I chuckled in bitterness and nodded.

"What's funny?!" Aunt Tess asked.

"The funny thing? Nothing. But the embarrassing thing, that's your behavior." I answer here. They may judge me with no manners or respect but I don’t care.

I don't respect people who don't deserve to be respected like my Aunt.

"See, you're just exposing yourself." I said so he looked around.

"Not once, did my parents ever lay hands on me. Yes, I rebelled. I'm a fucking spoiled brat. But they never ever slapped me." I said.

"It's just that you don't understand me. I want the attention from my parents for my siblings. But what did you do? You suggested that I be deported here to the Philippines to study?" Again, I chuckled. "What can I learn from you here? Your being a demon? Why? Is it because mommy and daddy are watching over you in OUR house that you're like that? Remember, you can't step on our house that is named MINE if it's not because to me. So don't assume you're the one who owns it." I said. My throat hurts so much because of the resentment I have been harboring for so long.

"Be thankful for not kicking you out, Mutterficker" (mother fucker) I immediately left the police station and then took a taxi and drove to the bar. I don't want to be with her at home first so I can't control myself and hurt her.

I will sleep with Sheila for now since I also have clothes there.

When I got to the bar I immediately saw Sheila leaving and waiting for a car.

I took a deep breath then looked out the window.

"Let's go!" I called ger and then smiled as if nothing had happened. I don't know why but then I always hold back my tears when the reason is resentment but when it comes to my siblings, I shed my tears because I miss them.

"Why haven't you got home yet?" She asked when she got on board.

"I'm going to sleep with you for now." I said so she looked at me.

"Did something happen again?" She asked.

"Huh? Nothing." I said then averted my eyes.

I know she didn't believe the answer but she was kind and thoughtful. When I say nothing, she won't ask. She'll just let me tell her. But sometimes she also forces me to tell so I can do nothing but tell her.

But maybe tomorrow, I will tell her. I can't hide from her. She's like a sister to me.

"Everything will be okay." She said then rubbed my back.

I just smiled then leaned my head on her shoulder.

Nowadays, I really need her more.

WHEN we arrived at their house, her mother immediately greeted us. She always doing this. It's already 10 pm but then she's still waiting for her daughter to come home.

How I wish my mommy was like this. Or even my aunt.

"Hi mom!" Sheila greeted her mother and then kissed her mother on the cheek.

"Good evening, Ma." I greeted then kissed her cheek as well.

"Good evening to you too, Solenne." She also greeted me so I smiled but it was forced and she seemed to notice that.

They know that every time I come here, my aunt and I fight again. So I almost live here because we always fight with my aunt Tess.

She immediately hugged me.

"That's okay, Solenne. Everything will be fine too. Just when you need a family, the three of us, Papa Roderick, Sheila and I are here for you. You know Sheila is our only child but we also consider you Papa's child. So you can run to this house. This is your home as well. " She said as she hugged me so I couldn't stop my tears from falling.

Earlier I wanted to release it but I chose not to look for it first but they say, it feels easier when you say something.

"I'm in." Sheila said then offended by our hug.

"Hey why am I not involved?" Papa joked so we laughed and then we hugged him.

We are like this everytime I'm here.

I'm very thankful to have this kind of family. Even though we're not blood related, they still accept and loved me like I was their daughter and sister.

Sometimes I just get asked. What have I done so well for the Lord to give me this kind of family? And all of this, I will treasure all this time I am with them.

"Well then, let's go inside, we know you haven't eaten yet so let's go inside. I've already heated the dish." Papa said so I smiled and then we entered.
