Part 14
"Chris!"
"DAD!!!! What are you doing home???"
"I Think i could say the same about you"
I didnt know what to say... the look on his face was horrifying...
"I ... I...."
"You what? c'mon... did he steel your tongue too?"
I couldnt say anything
"I thought so... well young man... are you happy now that you've stolen my daughters innocence?"
Paul looked at him, stammered something that i could'nt understand and looked at me.
"GET OUT NOW!"
Dad yelled suddenly and Paul ran away quicker than a mouse running away from a cat.
"I thought you werent coming home until tonight"
I forgot to mention before that my father was away for a few days because he was visiting some friends in Queensland.
"I thought id come home a few hours earlier to surprise my family... but i obviously got more of a surprise here didnt i.. my 13 year old daughter being mauled by some... some boy"
"He wasnt Mauling me dad!"
"And what do you suppose he was doing"
"Well... he... i.... we..."
"Yes i thought so... I dont want you to see that boy again. All he wants is to take advantage of you"
"BUT DAD HE MY FRIE..."
"I WONT HEAR ANOTHER WORD!!!! your grounded for 3 weeks... you can stay home for the rest of the day and return to school tomorrow"
"But Dad...."
"No more buts!"
And with that he slammed the door and i heard his footsteps fade as he walked down the hall way. Why does this always have to happen to me!
I wasnt going to put up with it. I took my bag, backed in some clothes and a few other bits and pieces... i went to the bathroom and grabbed my toothbrush and some tooth paste, a few other toiletries and returned to my room.
I opened my window and pushed out the fly screen,i climbed out and went over to Pauls House. I didnt even knock on the front door, i went right round the back and knoced on the shed door. I heard some footsteps and the turning of the handle...
"Chris?"
"Ive run away from home... "
