Please...don't

Chapter eleven

What do I do? If I tell dad about everything in front of this guy, he might kill him or something. Besides, dad might not even believe me. so, I should stay calm. I should tell dad everything without him hearing us...

"George?" dad said and I realized that I was staring at the guy. I turned to dad

"What's wrong?" dad asked

"I... I just... Umm... know that girl?" I pointed at the TV. "She's in our school"

I was stuttering and my response came out as a question. 

I turned and nearly run to my room

My head was throbbing and my hands were shaking. What if the guy kills us? Do I need to call 911? Then say what? The guy who's talking to dad in the living room is a member of an unknown gang and was the same guy who killed Paula even though you all think Veronica did it. And he was the one who made Sebastian kill himself even though mom confessed? This is driving me crazy

I then put the paper Paula has sent me, Sebastian's notebook, and mom's two letters on my bed. Trying hard not to think of Paula and what could have happened 

but first, I opened the envelope. I need to be sure

There were two papers in the envelope. I pulled out the first one. there were some words at the top that I didn't understand but at the end, it read that the DNA of mom matched with Sebastian's. good

But then I read the other paper and it confused me. something must have gone wrong. because there's no way what's written on this paper could be true!

Then remembered that Paula had said that she will Email me the rest and I went to my dad's office. I then opened his email. But Paula hadn't sent anything. I was about to turn the computer off when a received email caught my attention. It was an email from dad's boss. It said that the vacation he took for a month had expired. and it was received yesterday

There's no way I thought there's no way what I am thinking about could be true!

Then the realization hit me. There's no way dad knew nothing about this, because I heard mom tell him that JoJo was taken away from her. and mom didn't tell me to run away with dad in her letter, it was more like to run away from him. And she didn't hid the letter from the police she hid it from him. This could only mean that, that the other guy Roni talked about... was dad.

I closed the computer after checking one last thing and everything suddenly became so clear and confusing at the same time.

I went to dad's safe and opened it. He had told us the password in case something bad happened. And I took out his gun

I held the gun with both hands and went downstairs. They were still talking. And I aimed the gun at dad

"Dad?"

"Yes George... why the hell are you holding a gun?" he said and the other guy turned to me as well.

"Where is veronica?" I said

"Who? What are you talking about?" he tried to stand up

"No! Sit back down" I yelled "Or I'll shoot"

His eyes widen "Why the hell would you do that?"

"Because I know everything. I know what you did. And who you are"

They both looked at each other

"George, I think you should..." the guy who was silent began

"No! Shut up," I said "I know you both are in that gang. And that you killed people"

Dad's eyebrows furrowed
