Part 8
Mel was sitting at the police station wearing a mask as a doctor was taking a look over her for any bruises or concussion. Just then her family Joe, Nick, Frankie, Mama J and Papa J came in and Melissa ran over to her father and jumped in his arms and he wrapped his arm around.
Melissa: *tears running down her face* daddy I'm so sorry
Papa J: oh baby girl... shhh... you have nothing to apologize for, I'm the one that should apologize. I'm just glad you're okay
Melissa: but I called him my father
Papa J: honey-
Melissa: no let me finish, nobody in my life could ever replace you. I don't care what anybody says, you're my father and nobody gonna take that away from us. Mom put you in my life for a reason and it was to keep me away from him, I never want to go talk or go near him ever again
Papa J: what happened?
Melissa: he told me everything I needed to know
Papa J: You know the whole truth?
Melissa: yeah... I do he told me everything
Joe: what did he want from you Mel?
Melissa: money, your money. The reason my mom hid me from him was because he wanted to keep me until my mother payment from all the drugs she took from him all the years before I was born
Papa J: *sighs* I told your mother that her past was gonna come back and haunt her
Melissa: *hugs him* I'm just glad to see you! How did you guys get here when I bought my ticket to come here it was hard to come
Papa J: Joe flew us on a private jet, he figured you would want your whole family
Melissa: *to Joe* Kevin?
Joe: couldn't make it because of the girls, but he wishes you well
Melissa: *roll eyes* of course, dad
Papa J: yeah pumpkin
Melissa: I think I'm ready to let my mom's ashes go
Papa J: are you sure?
Melissa: yeah... it's time to let her go
Just then the cops got an alert about an accident at the same place Mel was just picked up at and one of the guys said.
Cop: I'm gonna need you guys to leave
Papa J: Is something wrong?
Cop: I really need you guys to leave right now, there's been an emergency
Melissa: what happened?
Cop: I can't say, please it's best if you all leave right now
Melissa: not if you tell me what's going on, we heard you guys talking about the hotel I was just at. What happened!
Papa J: Melissa! That's no way to talk to an officer
Melissa: He promised me that nothing bad was going to happen! He broke it, I just know it. That's why he's ushering us out of here
Papa J: Is that true?
Cop: *signs to Melissa* your biological father the one that kidnap you
Melissa: yeah?
Cop: dead
Melissa: What how? He was fine when I left
Cop: *sighs* after you left the cops pulled him to the car and shot him
Melissa : I knew it, and I trusted you!
Cop: kid...
Melissa: no! Don't pull the we we're just trying to do our job bull-crap. You killed the man because his skin was different than yours
Cop: kid, I'm gonna ask you to calm down
Papa J: Melissa... that's enough! Apologize
Melissa: but-
Papa J: apologize, and let me deal with this
Melissa: uh... okay
Papa J: *to the cop* in my family, we never break promises to each other, the fact that you have the audacity to break my promise to my daughter shows what a real man you people are
Cop: sir...
Papa J: let me finish... my daughter was right about cops, you guys will never change or learn from your mistakes *turns to his daughter* and I should have listened more
Melissa: *smiles* thanks daddy
Cop: sir I did not break my promises, in fact I did not know those guys would do that to him. Our deal was to bring your daughter back home safely
Papa J: *push him up against the wall*
Mama J: Kevin!
Papa J: Are you calling my daughter a liar? I know my daughter would not lie about stuff like this, you told her you would keep her and him safe. As much as I don't like that man, he did not deserve to his end his life that way
Joe: You tell him dad!
Papa J: everyone deserves a fair trial, doesn't matter if they're black or white or have a bad past, they should be treated as equals. Tell me sir, if that was a white man would you guys have let him off scott free or would you treat him the same way
The cop stood their silence not saying a word.
Papa J: I didn't think so, let's go family *to Melissa* I'm sorry baby girl
Melissa: it's okay daddy, thank you for standing up for me *hugs him* you're my hero
Mama J: mines too *smiles*
Joe: us too
Papa J: *lifts her up in his arm* come on let's head home
Papa J and Melissa headed out together with the family behind them as they all headed back home to Joe's place.
