Chapter 21: 21 - Lies
Jay's Pov
Asking Christian to move in with me was a spontaneous decision when I saw how both the girls were
clinging onto him. He freaked out. I did not mean to freak him out. It's been three days since, and I
have been keeping my distance. We haven't spoken of met in these three days and I miss both Grey
and Ana. Carol misses them too, but I keep Carol too occupied so that she doesn't have a chance to
go to the Grey house. I don't want our friendship or whatever it is to be a liability on Christian.
"Daddy, how's this?" Carol shows me her drawing. It's two girls standing with balloons and before I ask, Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
I know it's her and Ana.
"It's lovely baby, you want to put it on the refrigerator?" I ask her.
"No daddy, I made this for Ana. I'll give her when we meet. You think she will like it?" She asks me
thoughtfully.
"I know that she'll love it baby." I pick her up and kiss her.
She smiles at me.
"Can we call her over for a playdate?" She asks me.
"Not this week, you have already have too much fun together. Give her some time to settle down with
her daddy now." I carry her to her room.
"Nap time for the beautiful baby." I kiss her once more as I place her on her crib.
"No sleepy, daddy" Carol pouts and whines.
"I might let you watch Moana when you wake up if you sleep like the good baby that you are now." I
bribe her.
"Deal." She says, her eyes glittering.
I laugh.
I tuck her in and I am on my way downstairs when the doorbell rings.
I open the door to a crying Ana.
"Ana? Hush.... What happened? Why are you crying? Are you hurt? Where's Christian?" I pick her up
and bring her inside. She just keeps on crying.
"Hush baby, it's okay. Tell me what's wrong, so that I can help you." I rub her back trying to calm her
down obviously to no avail.
"Does Christian know you're here?"
As if on cue Christian storms inside the house.
"How dare you leave the house without my permission!?" He hollers as her, his eyes blood red in
anger.
And pushes into my chest and sobs harder, hiding her face in my chest.
"Grey! The hell is the matter?!" I ask him. It has to be something serious.
"Stay the fuck out of it!" He snarls back.
I stare at him, almost challenging him to go on. You do not scare your baby girl with red eyes and
pointy fangs no matter what. The fuck is wrong with him?
"Behave, Grey." I warn him before he gets himself into more trouble.
It's like something snaps inside him and he realises that he needs to stop. He is still mad though. His
eyes red.
"What did she do? Kill somebody? Why are you so mad at her?" I ask him again.
