"Daddy?"
Marinette asked the large brown-haired man that stood in her doorway. His mouth was the of a smile, with his eyes closed and a happy aura surrounding him. Marinette stared wide-eyed at the man for a few minutes before letting the large man in. Once inside, the bluenette puts a pot on to boil water, ignoring the weird tension in the air.
"So…" Tom started. "How have you been sweetie?"
"Sick," Marinette responded. Which wasn't far from the truth. Now a month and 15 days pregnant, Marinette was now getting some of the symptoms pregnant women would normally get. Such as vomiting, headaches and constant gas! Weirdly enough though, she didn't seem like she was gaining any weight. Something that bothered her a bit.
"Aw yes, from the pregnancy?" Her father asked.
"Yep, Chat's sperm can really move. Even though a condom." Marinette said in shame. She soon blushed at her words, feeling a small bit of shame saying this to her father.
"Uh…" She spoke before turning around to look at her father. The large man was sitting happily on the couch. His blue suit matched perfectly with the fabric used to make the furniture soft. Marinette raised an eyebrow to this. Not because of the colors, but to her father's strange appearance. Seconds later, the aura the room turned worse when Sabrine came walking into the living room. Wearing nothing more but her undergarments.
Let this be known, for a woman in her late 30's-early 40's…Sabine had a roughly nice body. Even though she was fat in certain places, and had rolls, she was still good looking for her age. So good looking, that Tom could not look away from her tight behind.
With a towel over her head, the older woman did not notice the large man on her couch till she was standing next to her daughter. Removing the towel, she sees Tom immediately! But for some reason does not react to his presence, let alone cover's her semi-naked form.
"Marinette, what have I told you about letting trash into my house?" Sabine growled as she glares daggers in Tom directions.
"He said he had something important to tell us," Marinette informed her mother.
"What, that he finally grew a pair and decided to be a father?" Sabine growled. Both her hands rest on her hips as her eyes squint.
"Actually…" Tom started as he stands up from his chair. He unbuttons his jacket in the process as he looks at the two. "I have been annotated mayor of the town."
He tells them. The mere words that fell from his mouth and landed in their ears, caused both bluenette's smooth skin to turn ghostly white. The two became engulfed in their own thoughts that they didn't hear the pot whistling for them. Tom did on the other hand and went to go deal with the water himself. By the time Marinette came back to earth from her cloud, Sabine still is gone, her father had poured her a cup of tea.
"How?" Marinette asked her father.
"Simple, The Dupen's were always next in line for the Mayor desk. In case anything were to happen to Andre, I would always step in. And since he has been gone for two weeks, the council has elected me to take his place." Tom explained with a smile on his face. Marinette, on the other hand, was confused and lost. She didn't know what exactly to do or say but to wonder…
"So…how the job?" Marinette asked, Trying her best not to look confused or unease at her father's news.
"A bit tiring, Andre left me many notes about a certain blue-haired girl causing major trouble within the town." Tom started as he reaches into his pocket. Seconds later, he pulls out a thick metal bracelet with words written on the side.
"What's that?" Marinette asked.
"Your tracker." He tells her. His words then hit Sabine hard, snapping her back into reality.
"Tracker? Wait, what?" Sabine asked. Her attention moves to Tom clipping a metal device onto Marinette's left hand. It then makes a small BEEP sound before lighting up a neon green color. Marinette stared at it oddly as Tom adjust his tie.
"Because of your reckless behavior and influence on the town locals. You are hereby under town arrest." Tom started. "You are not allowed to leave the pure beloved home. You must be home by either your mother's how or you are own home by 7 PM. You cannot leave your house until 7 AM."
"WHAT!?" Marinette shouted before looks down at her bracelet. "What did I do to cause all of this?"
"You poisoned Chloe."
"That wasn't me! She had an allergic reaction to something I make all the time for everyone!"
"You are having an affair with Chat Noir."
"That is my business! It is no one's permission to judge who I fuck!"
"Then we have reckless behavior. Such as cursing, fighting and even skipping class."
"I am sorry, did life not affect you at all Tom?" Sabine asked, intruding on the Father-daughter conversation. "Or did you forget you were a worse asshole than your daughter?"
"I'm an asshole now?" Marinette growled to her mother.
"We are all pieces of shit Marinette. It just depends on what level you are that hurts everyone the most. You are like a level two out of ten." Sabine explained.
"Wow, thanks, mom…" Marinette growled.
"Anyway!" Sabine shouted. "How dare you put our daughter on lockdown! Do you realize she needs to get out of town for her pregnancy!? We don't have a proper doctor for fucking vagina checks."
"MOM!"
"Marinette, you got a yeast infection at 17 because we didn't have a smart doctor! Let alone one who was willing to look at a woman's vagina." Sabine growled. "You could have died!"
"Well, she wouldn't be in this situation if her mother taught her the decency of being a lady and not a whore," Tom growled.
Suddenly, the awkward tension in the room turned to rage…Marinette eyes widen in fear as Sabine nice, or normal appearance turned dark. Turning her attention to Tom, she opens her mouth to say:
"You must have lost your mind when you thought that…you know what Tom…get the fuck out of my house and stay out of my life." Sabine growled before pointing to the door. This caused the brunette to chuckle lightly under his breath.
"I see you're the same Sabine, sadly." He tells her. He then looks to his daughter to say: "Don't break my rules Marinette, or you will be in prison quicker than you can say what."
"Yes, father," Marinette responded before walking towards the door. Her father follows a few steps away, not even bothering to look at Sabine as she stares down at the white tile of her kitchen table. Soon, the white begins to fade and old memories begin to fill her mind.
(decades ago)
Rain
Darkness
Sadness
It was all there. That very moment as she sat in the rain. Waiting for her mother to come to get her.
A small child, no older than 12. Sat on a wooden bench next to a stop sign. Her blue eyes scan the dark road ahead of her. Watching the greyness of the road, and the darkness of the sky mix into one color…black.
Her clothes stick to her skin as it shivers. Smoke slowly floats from her lips. But there she sat patiently and wanting over her mother. Not moving an inch from the rain, waiting for the woman to come and bring her home.
Waiting…
Waiting…
Waiting…
Till the rain came to a stop
And the sun finally rising.
But no one came. The 12-year-old didn't move from that very spot. She stood still and waited, her hands clench each other as her soaked body tries to warm itself. Cold and alone, she still waited till the dark sky turned blue and the streets were filled with cars. She ignored the rumbling of her stomach. She ignored the itchy feeling from her palms as bugs bite her. She ignored her heavy eyes and kept them opened. She waited like the good girl she was. She waited…
But no one came
It was then, as the sun started to sink below into darkness yet again, she realized that her mother had left her. Alone, at a street corner waiting like a good girl in the rain.
Kikkie: Hey...
Long story short, life has been kicking my ass. Been having some money problems and emotional problems. But nothing I couldnt fix. This chapter alone took me about a couple of weeks to do, I think I might have developed a little bit of writors block. Which I feel awful for because all of you waited for this. But its here, I can't guarent that the chapters will be flowing in like the other story.
I am very stress, I am trying to focus on school and try to get some sort of income to help me. I love writing, but right now I am not at my best when it comes to mental health. I hope you will forgive for not being haste with my writing, or if I make mistakes. This also goes for my other stories, I really don't like the fact that I am not able to write like how I use too, but right now, I am so happy to still be able to write and think.
I want to thank you all for patiently waiting, and apologies for all the late chapters I havent been doing because from my many messages I know you all are waiting and I am so sorry that I am not writing fast enough. I hope this part reaches everyone who reads my stories, if not everyone but a few. I am trying, I am sorry to make you wait, I will get to my stories.
Never let stress and many other things get to you, its a horrible thing that causes so much pain. I let it did me in and now I am frustrated and sick at times. Not deadly sick, but ill that I would need to take medicine to feel better from time to time. My point is, don't let these things get the better of you. It can easily take over, and trust me, when you think you escape, it leaves behind some things.
Thank you very much for reading my message. I hope this helps some of you.
Have a nice day~
(Yes, even in the rewrite, I am keeping this message)
