Chapter 12: I hate him

Chapter 12: (Xavier's POV)- I Hate Him

"I hate him."

"You hate your dad?" The confusion was clear in her voice.

"Yeah. I hate my dad. I can't like someone that's never there for me. Someone who only causes trouble and pain when he is here."

"Let's talk about something-"

"Something else? Why? I know you want to ask. Just ask." I don't know where this coldness and anger were coming from but it was here, for worse or for better.

"Ask what?" Her brows furrowed in confusion.

"Don't act like you don't curious when you walk by here with nothing but screams and yelling coming from inside. I know you see his car in the driveway and I know you ride or walk by." I ran my hand through my tousled hair.

"What goes on in your house is none of my business. Just because I notice it and have doubts doesn't mean they need to be answered on raised," she huffed.

"The whole neighborhood notices it, everyone's just too afraid to ask," I scoffed coldly.

"I'm not afraid. I know it's not my place to ask so why would I?" She raised her eyebrows at me.

"Well then, maybe you're just smarter than the rest of the neighborhood," I chuckled.

"Maybe I am," she nodded. "I'm telling you, people are dumb. Do not listen to any stupid thing they tell you. And don't let them get to you," she laughed humorlessly.
