Hi friends, I've had this idea for this story for a while. But, I was already working on a different story on here. So, I put this one on hold. But, I'm excited to finally finish this idea and publish it. If you like this story, make sure to comment! Blessing's, Butterfly582.
Adrian sat in his room stewing in anger. He had just had an argument with his father, about going to a friends birthday party. His father flipped because he didn't know the kids parents. Adrian hated that his father was so over protective. He didn't understand why his father was like this.
Adrian's kwami, Plagg, noticed Adrian was angry. So, he flew over to him. "Hey kid, everything okay?" Plagg asked.
"No! My father won't let me go to a party. Simply because he doesn't know the parents. Even though I told him the parents will be there. And I could even give him their phone number. So, he could call ahead of time. And talk to them! But, he said he wants to meet people in person. Even though he never leaves the house!" Adrian snapped.
"Well, your father is just looking out for you. I know he can be over protective. But, he did lose his wife. And he probably doesn't want to lose you too." Plagg replied.
You don't get it, Plagg. Yes, my father has become more over protective since my mom went missing. But, he has always been like this. Him and my mom were both very over protective of me. They had control of my life. Of what I did, where I went, who I was friends with. That is why I wasn't allowed to go to school. Because, they were afraid something bad would happen to me. Heck, I couldn't even go to the park, like a normal kid! I could only go under my parents watchful eye! And I could only do what they said. So, if they said I couldn't play on something. Guess what? I didn't play on it." Adrian replied.
"So, they didn't want you playing in a dirty sand box, big deal!" Plagg replied.
"Oh, no, it wasn't just that! I wasn't allowed on the swings. Because, I could fall off and get hurt. I wasn't allowed on the teeter totter, because you can fall off them and get hurt. I was only allowed to go down the slides if one of my parents were down at the bottom to catch me. And I couldn't do anything without them watching over me like a hawk!
And if I tried to do something they didn't like, I would get in a huge amount of trouble. I remember one time when I think I was six, my mom and dad had started talking to someone at the park they knew. And they ordered me to stay by their sides. Until they finished talking. Well, I got bored rather quick, and ran off to play. And trust me, it didn't take them long to notice I was gone. So, when they found me. I had gone onto the swings. And I was having a blast. Wondering why my parents never allowed me on the swings. Well, my fun didn't last long. Mom and dad ran over and ripped me off of the swings and they both flipped out. I ended up being grounded to my room for three days, with all my toys taken away." Adrian said.
"Bummer, did they ever tell you why they were like that?" Plagg asked.
"No, and whenever I would ask. They would simply say it was "because they loved me and wanted to protect me" which okay, I get it! Every parent wants to protect their child. But, they took it over bored and I don't know why!" Adrian snapped.
"Well, you're older now, maybe your old man will finally tell you." Plagg replied.
"No, he'll probably give me the same dumb excuse." Adrian grumbled.
"So, go demand he tell's you! It's not like you're a little kid. You are almost fifteen years old! You deserve to know why they had such a heavy hand on your life, for the past fourteen years." Plagg replied.
"You know what, you are right! It's my life, and I should be allowed to have some say over it!" Adrian replied as he jumped up and headed out into the hall.
"You go get em kid! Now if you excuse me! My cheese is calling my name!" Plagg said to himself.
Adrian ran down the stairs and over to his father's office. He was suppose to knock, but he didn't think about it. And barged right in, causing his father to jump a little and look up.
"Adrian, what is the meaning of this?!" Gabriel snapped.
Adrian went over to his father and stood his ground.
"Father, I am sick and tired of you always having so much control over my life! Why are you like this?! And don't tell me it's because of mother going missing. Because, you both have always been like this! And I want to know why?! I'm almost fifteen, if you are not going go give me more freedom. Then you can at least enlighten me on why you are so over protective!" Adrian snapped.
Adrian had been filled with confidence up until this point. But, once his rant was over and he noticed the piercing stare his father was giving him. He buckled a little, but he still wasn't going to back down easily.
Gabriel was at a lost for words. He had never seen his son stand up to him like this. He finally sighed and faced his son.
"Alright, let's have a talk, son." Gabriel replied.
So, I was going to make this a one shot. But, I noticed it was getting too long. So, there will be two chapters. Hope you all enjoyed chapter one. If you did, let me know in the comments. And I will try to upload chapter two soon! Until next time, my friends! Blessing's, Butterfly582!
