Homecoming
Take Me Home
About 20 minutes after I locked myself in my room I hear both of my parents walking up the stairs. My mom must be leaving soon or something.
I hear a knock on the door before I hear them trying to open it. Then my dad speaks, “Kennadee Jade please open this door.”
“Why?” I sounded more sad then I wanted to when I said this.
“Please Kenna, I want to talk to you,” my mom speaks up.
I then get up off of the bed and open the door and then walk back to my bed hugging my pillow.
“Kenna...”
“No mom look, you two are adults, you can mess up your own lives but don’t you ever get me caught up in your love/hate relationship ever again.” It felt so good to get that all off my chest.
“Kennadee, I’m sorry okay. We saw each other and the sparks came back. It all happened so fast. Please don’t tell Rick, I can’t face him if he found out.”
“Then you shouldn’t have cheated on him, especially with him. Until I attempted suicide you hated him and bashed him every chance you got and now you are on his couch fucking him? I mean come on, you are supposed to be the mature one not me!” I was up and pacing across my room at this point.
“You’re not going to listen so I am just going to call my taxi for the airport,” she begins to say while she stands up, “I love you Kenna bug. Call me when you calm down,” then she kisses my forehead.
Once she walks out the door it left the awkward silence between my dad and I. That is until he finally speaks up, “I’m sorry Kenna.”
“Sorry is sometimes not good enough dad. Sorry may be a little late now,” I answer with tears rolling down my face.
“What can I do to convince you that I truly am sorry?”
“Be the dad you always wanted to be and care that I am hurting.”
“Well how about this,” he begins to say as he sits on the edge of my bed, “we skype every night I am on tour and when you need to get away or when you feel like you can’t cope anymore we’ll fly you out to tour for a few days.”
“Really?”
“Yes, really. The guys would love it.”
“Sounds great.”
“Good. My plane leaves in about 2 hours so I am going to finish packing. House rules are on the fridge and yes I will be checking. I do have spies after all. There is also cash and a credit card in the utility drawer, use it wisely.”
“Okay.”
“Most of all have fun Kenna. See you soon.”
“Bye daddy. Love you.” Then my dad leaves my life yet again. I could feel the hole in my heart grow larger as I am again alone in a huge house.
