Chapter 28: 28 - Really?
Chapter 28: 28 - Really?
Ana is really chirpy this morning and can't wait for me to go back to work. I asked her multiple times
what did Jay bribe her with, but to no avail.
I got her a new stuffie yesterday for being a good girl and all but she seems a tad bit disinterested in it.
She even forgot to put up the latest drawing that Carol made for her on her art board in her room.
Anyway, it's a relief dealing with a happy baby instead of a cranky one.
"Ready to go over to Jay's?" I ask her after breakfast the next morning.
"Yay! Daddy? Can I stay over tonight?" She asks me.
"Huh?" I am slightly surprised.
"Can I stay the night with Carol?" She asks me again.
"You.... Want to? You won't be scared in the middle of the night? What if you need a change?" I ask.
"Uncle Jay will help me. Also, I am big girl." She says stretching her hands wide, to show me how big
she is. She is adorable. I kiss her cheek.
"That you are my love. Is that what uncle Jay told you? Hmm? That's why you decided to let daddy go
to work?"
"Nope." She grins. I sigh. How is he so good with littles? And when is he planning to go back to work, I
wonder. What will happen then? I don't want to leave the kids with a baby sitter. I'll talk to my boss
about working from home and everything today.
"Would you wait here, while I pack a quick overnight bag for you? Hmm?"
"Yes daddy! Thankssss!" She hugs me. "You be the best!"
"Am I?" I kiss her.
I quickly pack a bag and then drop her over to Jay's. I plan on going out for a couple of drinks with my
work friends who I hardly socialise with these days, since Ana will be at Jay's.
After work, I video call Ana and she is impatient to go back to whatever she was doing. I wonder what
is she playing that's got her so interested.
All I am getting from her is quick one work hurried answers. It's.... annoying. She doesn't miss me even
one bit it seems.
After, I talk to Jay and he is too casual for my liking. What is happening?
I come back home late into the night, positively sloshed and crash on the bed.
Next morning, I rush to Jay's to bring Ana back home. It's a Sunday so thankfully I'll be getting to spend
the entire day with my baby.
I get a reluctant Ana back home.
"What's the matter baby? Why are you pouting?"
She shrugs. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
"You're not happy we get to spend the entire day together after two long days?"
"Of course, I am daddy! What will we do?" She asks cheering up.
"You tell me?" I ask her.
"Daddy, what is cummies?" She asks me innocently.
I almost spit out the water I am drinking.
"Where did you hear that from?" I ask, trying to act casual.
"Yesterday while we were making.... doing something, Carol asked uncle Jay for cummies. Uncle Jay
said no. She threw a tantrum and got a spanking and some corner time for it. I was scared to ask him
what was it. Is it something bad? Or something like candies? That you cannot have too much of?"
"Firstly, yesterday you were making.... What?" I ask her wide eyed.
"Umm.... Doing something." She says evasively.
"Doing what, Ana?!"
"That's a secret. Secret between me and Uncle Jay and Carol." She tells me.
I pinch my nose, trying to keep calm.
"Ana, baby, you don't keep secrets from daddy Now, do you? What were you doing baby?" I am dying
inside. What the fuck were they doing?!
"But, uncle Jay knows. So, it cannot be a no no?"
I run my hands through my hair. How do I explain? How do I ask her. It's so frustrating. I will kill Jay, if
he is touching Ana, inappropriately.
Stop, Grey. That can't be. You are just going crazy.
"Do you want daddy to get mad at you?" I ask her solemnly.
"No! I don't want to know what cummies is, okay? Please don't get mad daddy!" She implores.
"It's not that Ana." I groan.
She makes a face at me.
"Ana, did Jay.... touch you?" I am slightly ashamed to bring myself to ask Ana this. It's Jay we are
talking about here.
"Yes.... " She says and gives me a so what? expression.
I go batshit crazy!
I go my backyard to get my rage out.
Ana's Pov
I don't know what did I say that made daddy go so mad. His eyes went red again and his teeth
changed, like two pointed teeth came out and he grew in size. Like a monster. He snarled. Like an
animal and rushed out to the backyard.
I run to the house phone and call uncle Jay and ask him to come over and say there is something very
wrong with daddy!
"Hush, don't cry Ana. I will be there in ten seconds, okay? Stay away from daddy till then!" He says and
hangs up. I start counting the seconds in my head.
