Yes Daddy (by Red Inkling) novel Chapter 89

MONALISA

My body ached but my heart ached even more. Tears were rolling down my cheeks non stop. I kept wiping at the tears as I ran but I couldn’t stop it from flowing.

He killed my father! He killed my father! He killed Irene too! Who else had he killed? A mafia man, he must have killed a whole lot of people. He must be so unrepentant about murdering others.

Did he even for once regret killing my dad? Or was he just sad that I had found out about it?

Pushing the door to our living room open, I ran in and mum immediately got on her feet the moment she saw me.

Her hand which was holding a glass of juice dropped the glass slowly, her face not leaving me.

“Lisa” she called.

“Mum!” I called in a cracking voice and ran into her arms.

I needed to cry in someone’s arms. I needed the warmth but even more, I needed to be far away from Lucius and everything that had to do with him.

This house was his, the things in this house were bought with his money. The very fucking clothes I was wearing was from him.

I wanted to rip myself apart as I hugged mum even more tightly.

“Lisa, what happened?” Mum asked, worry and concern in her voice.

“M-mum” I just sobbed.

How could I tell her what happened? How could I tell her that the man she was super grateful to was the same man who had taken my dad away from her in the first place? How could I tell her that I had fallen in love with that same man?

“Lisa” mum pulled away from the hug and held my hands. There were few bruises there even though it had been treated.

“What is this? What happened to you? I have been trying to reach you for hours but your phone was switched off. What’s happening? Talk to me, please”

“Just let me hold you, mum” I cried and hugged her again.

Mum was very confused but she wrapped her arms around me and hugged me back.

“It’s fine. I am here. Everything is going to be fine” mum tried comforting me but I just felt more pains.

I could not be comforted. Nothing was going to be fine. I wasn’t going to live happily ever after with Lucius like I had dreamed of.

I wasn’t going to have Irene as my best friend forever like we had said. I wasn’t going to be safe anymore since Sandro is after me. Nothing was fine.

“I am sorry, mum” I sobbed, not knowing why I was apologising.

Was I apologizing because I now knew who dad’s murderer was but would not be telling her?

Or was I apologizing because I had fallen in love with his murderer?

“You did nothing wrong, Lisa. I love you. I love you” she cooed, patting me.

My mum loved me. She was the only one who loved me genuinely. She was the only sincere person I had in my life and maybe I should not have tried so hard to make friends and maybe I should not have let my attraction to Devine become love. Maybe I should have stuck with my mum only, all my life.

Gently, mum pulled away from the hug again and led me to the couch.

“What happened, sweetie?” She asked, very softly.

I could see the concern in her face.
