The Chosen Son

Chapter 29

Jane

Stomping up the stairs after arguing with my father, demanding I apologies to the people I shot and taking away my gun until I learn how to use it. I was furious and tired after everything that had happened today. All my father had to say was River was wherever he was and none of this would have happened. True I might have jumped to conclusions quickly, but my father didn't help the matter and it was reasonable or at least it seemed reasonable a while ago. I slammed my door shut loudly to make sure it was heard throughout the house. I continued stomping to my bed and flung myself on my bed grabbing a pillow and screaming into it because I was so frustrated. I heard the door open a few minutes later as I laid in my bed.

“get out of my room” I yelled as I sat up in my bed ferrous someone had the nerve to come in her first without knocking and second without permission 

“don't take that tone with me young lady” my mother said as she sat on the edge of the bed

“I'm not in the mood to chat now” I said sitting up against the headboard crossing my arms

“I don't give a damn, what was that freak out about, you have never been one to do something without just reasoning so I would like to know because I can't figure it out” she said looking at me impatiently, as I rolled my eyes

“nothing” I said grumpy because in truth I freaked out and lost it for nothing because I thought my father had ordered River death and clearly he didn't

“I got all night honey bun, when you're willing to talk I'll be sitting here” she said leaning back looking at her nails 

“I don't feel like talking now” I said glaring out the window

“I don't give a damn Jane, you are going to talk with me about this cause you shot two of the guards, threatened Tition and Tiffany bodyguard then locked yourself in her room. I'm not stupid Jane you didn't do all that for nothing, if you just wanted to chat you have a phone and computer” she said as I glared at my computer and picked at it avoiding the conversation

“it nothing really” I said hoping she would just leave it

“Jane, don't make me call River in here and make you talk, I'm sure he can get it out of you” she said as I glared at my mother ferrous “your threatening looks don't faze me little girl” she said as I looked away

“I thought daddy had killed River and I lost it okay, but clearly I'm wrong so it's nothing I lost it for nothing okay” I said angry 

“was it in guilt or something else” she said smiling as I scoffed at her, getting off the bed heading for the bathroom

I slammed the door, turning on the water to fill the tube with water, I really need to have a few moments alone and relax. Pouring in lavender-scented bubble beads, I waited for the water to fill the tube and stripped off my clothing. Bubble baths are such wonderful things they're super fun as a kid to play in and marvels to relax in as adult. I laid there for a moment as I thought about my mother's words. She really knows how to get under my skin when she needs to. Of course she was correct about her assumptions, but I was furious with myself that she was correct. It's true I flipped because I thought my dad had ordered Gino to kill River for what happened, which was horrible unfair. I also hated the idea that River was gone and I wouldn't ever see him again, true he drove me up the wall a majority of the time, but it was kind of nice. Everyone usually just wants to be my friend and always does whatever I want them to do. But River doesn't, he doesn't even want to be my friend let alone do what I want him to do.
