Story: The Bully's Obsession

"Maybe next time kid "

"You always say that all the time!, you should learn to give another excuse to me next time!" She stuck her nose up in the air, glowering up at him.

He looked taken aback, I read the amusement in his gaze.

"Next time, I promise "

To my surprise he reached a hand to ruffle her hair, but snatched it back quickly like she would bite it off.

I found myself chuckling despite of myself..

I could see the both of them relating closely in the future.

Future..

Does Hayden and I still have one?Or it had been blown away before it had even rooted itself firmly.

HAYDEN

I couldn't wash away the feeling of loathe directed at myself.

What I had done a few moments ago made me the biggest ass in history.

She had been hurt and grief-stricken, not only I hadn't understood her, I had somehow made it all about me.

"I would love to, but considering the fact that she left the house with my niece and all traces points that it has everything to do with you "

My whole body turned rigid , I couldn't control the rate at which my heart rate spike up, pounding hard against my ribcage.

My attention snapped towards him.

"What the hell do you mean by she left!"

I barely stopped my clenched fist from hitting him right in the face when he merely shrugged at me.

"I'm fucking asking you something!"

"Calm your shit , I don't think she left your sorry ass ,she only mentioned about taking a walk."

My relief didn't last long when I remembered the potential danger outside.And she being alone with my kid....
