Chapter 26

For a few hours, we were playing board games. Brett probably thinks that our family is weird. 
"Oh, I just realized something. I only have one guest room." my dad mentioned.
"That's okay. Lily, Rose, and Melissa can take the guest room. I'll sleep on the couch." Brett offered.
"Thanks Brett." I said.
"No problem."
Eventually, we stopped playing board games and was just relaxing, watching TV in the living room. My dad was in the kitchen, looking for something to eat. I decided to go in the kitchen to finally talk to my dad.
"Dad, who was that woman?" I asked again.
"I thought I told you to drop it."
"Dad, I'm not a little girl anymore. You can tell me if she's your girlfriend." I told him.
"Your mother is the only one that I truly love." my dad snapped.
"Dad, we never really talked about what really happened." I argued. I always wanted to talk to my dad about it, but I never had the courage too.
"You want to know what happened?" my dad asked. My dad lead me to his room and he shutted the door, preventing Rose from hearing our conversation.
"I was stupid, and I was drunk. Somehow one thing lead to another and everything just got messed up." my dad explained.
"I have a question for you dad. How many times did you do it before mom found out? Did you cheat on her more than once?" I asked, afraid of hearing the answer.
"Yes." my dad admitted. I felt tears on my eyes.
"Things weren't right at the time. Your mother and I went through some tough times. We were planning on divorcing anyways." my dad continued.
"Oh my god." Tears were streaming down my face.
"You have to understand. We couldn't tell you. You were too young at the time and Rose was just born."
"I'm sorry, this is a little too much for me to handle in one day." I said before leaving the room, and walked back to the living room.
"Melissa, are you okay?" Rose asked, noticing my tearful and red eyes.
"Yeah, I just fell and stubbed my toe." I lied.
"Oh, you need anything Melissa?" Rose asked. I gave her a smile. She's such a sweetie pie.
"No, that's okay. I'm just going to go outside and have some fresh air." I told everyone.
The minute I walked ouside, I screamed as loud as I can, letting out my anger, sadness, and confusion.
Brett's P.O.V.
What happened? Just about a minute ago everything was going great.
Mr. Jones (Melissa's dad) walked up to me. "Brett, want to talk to you in the kitchen."
Mr. Jones lead me to his kitchen.  "Brett, I don't know you all that well. But Melissa seems to trust you, in a way. But I want you to tell her that Suzan is a real estate agent. She is selling me a house that is right next to their's. And also tell her that I love her." Mr. Jones told me.
I nodded my head. "Okay."
"Girls, I'll be right back." I told the girls before walking outside to find Melissa. I found Melissa, sitting on a bench.
Melissa's P.O.V.
"Hey." I heard. I jumped in surprise. I turned around, seeing Brett. I hid my face as Brett sat next to me.
"You probably think I'm crazy." I muffled.
"Well, I wouldn't say crazy. Just very unique and different. Anyways, what happened?" Brett asked.
"It's.... my dad. I don't really want to talk about it." I wiped my tears.
"Your dad told me to tell you that Suzan is just a real estate agent that is selling your dad a house next to yours." My eyes widen.
"He's really moving?" 
"Yup, and also, I love you."
My heart skipped a beat when I heard that. "W..what?"
"Your dad says that he loves you." Brett said. I felt my heart drop.
There was a few second pause before I told Brett "I have a question."
