"It wasn't just her, she was sent by someone,which makes it more dangerous because we still don't know who this person is....you shouldn't keep anything from me bunny.."

I nodded slowly, why do I feel like he knows what was going on in my mind in this moment..

It was unnerving, but I'm willing to take the risk...

I have to meet him, so at least he will give me some answers.

I entered the washroom, Hayden was waiting for me right outside, about two minutes later I peeked my head out the door.

He was staring in the other direction, this was the opportunity I needed .

I made my way out quietly and hastily left the mall.

I stared at the unmistakably farmiliar figure whose back was turned to me.

He'd called me from the window earlier , how did he even know Hayden and I were here?

"D..dad ?"

He turned around to face me, a tight smile playing along his lips

"Hello Gracie,You've grown up so much "

His last part got me, why did he say that?

Was it just me or he even sounded a bit different

"Look I've come to take you along with me okay?"

His gaze scanned around our surroundings seeming downright nervous.

"Let's just go okay?I'll explain everything later " He grabbed my arm and began making way to the car

I freed my arms from his grip so forcefully that even he looked surprised.

"What do you have to explain ?The way you gave me away right on my birthday?You didn't even at least tried to help me!"

How could he just come here and seem so casual about everything that happened , he didn't even ask me if I'm alright.

"Don't be stubborn ,just come along"

I almost laughed out at his words ,I'm the one being stubborn?

Why did I leave the mall and came here in the first place.....I don't know what I expected but...It wasn't this.

"I'm not leaving with you, you can just go, I'm perfectly fin...."

"Do as you are told , don't ask any questions!" He snapped ,a look of irritation and impatience flash across his gaze.

"You already abandoned me, are you feeling sorry for me now?Is that why you came searching for me?you moved along with mom and Ashley without me!You didn't even care about me at all?Do I not matter to you at all or is it because I'm not your real daughter!" I yelled, all the pent up emotions threatening to choke me up from my insides.

"You would be surprised by the truth, you're only right one one thing, I don't care about you ."he admitted with a sly smile.
