FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER SEVENTY-FIVE
A second from the other, we appeared in a dim place. The only source of light was coming outside from the moon. I looked outside at the glass door and windows, everyone had closed up. There was no one in town. Most of them were probably at the strip club drinking or doing crazier things, even.I looked around us; they were clothes of all kinds of designs. But they were all made of leather. No wonder most people here wore leather. No wonder they both wore leather. Promoting what they do.I saw shoes, from boots to slippers, all leather. Coats, both big and small, trousers, bags. Name it. Everything was perfectly made. They were really talented at what they do.I watched all my friends, and they were all admiring the place. Joseph even picked up clothes at some point. He was not even covered in blood.After a while, they all picked up something they could wear. Even Carl was happy with the coat he was wearing. And for some reason, he found shoes that went well with his paws. But that co

“Did you go to the strip club even when I told you not to? And why are you all wearing leather?” Maria asked as we appeared in the living room. Apparently, she had been waiting for us.After I told her about me taking Carl there, she refused. That maybe if I went with her, then she would allow me to go to a place where women were trying their level best to find husbands or someone to sleep with for money.She refused to allow me to go there because she didn’t trust Joseph and Carl. But I know she was also scared I might end up with one of them. Even when she is the only one I love.“And you smell of beer. What did I say about you drinking? Look at you. You look like a junky. You look drunk, Justine. And Carl, who is this?” She looked over at Carl.“Er.... she is my girlfriend. Crox,” he spoke. His voice was shaky. He was as scared as I was.“As if having you here isn’t weird enough. Now all of you go to bed. JOSEPH I thought you were going to keep him grounded. But that is what I get
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN
“Suzen, what are you doing here?” I asked, as Maria’s sister stood at the door. I gestured and she walked to me. All of my friends left. Leaving me and her to be alone.She looked sad. Depressed even. Her face looked down, like she just received news of her parents’ death. We walked over and sat on the couch.“What happened? Why do you look like this?” I asked her.“Is my sister here?” She asked as she looked from one place to the other.“No, she isn’t. I can give her a call if you need to talk to her,” I took my phone, but she gestured for me not to.“I talked to her, and she wasn’t as helpful. So don’t bother,” she spoke.I studied her. What the hell would she be doing here at this time of the day? And she talked to her sister, but Maria wasn’t as helpful. What did she ask for? For Maria to refuse, it was something I wouldn’t accept. And besides, I don’t like this family. I was feeling bad about treating father and grandmother like that yesterday.They all treated me badly. She was
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER SEVENTY-EIGHT
“I know you don’t want to get involved with them, Maria. But look at her condition. We need to also think about her child. Not just her and her shitty behavior. Believe me, I don’t want to help her. Only her child. But I can’t do that without your concern,” I told her as we reached the bedroom.After I had my talk with Joseph, he also didn’t like the idea that I was trying to help Suzen out. That she needed to learn how life was and not the way she thought it was. That if her family threw her out of the house, why should I be her saviour?And then a bit longer, Maria came home. She went to get something because we were running out. And she didn’t tell me that. She was telling Joseph. Because the woman was still mad at me for what I did last night. And I don’t even know who to fix things with her and Roland.And if that is not enough, there is the Suzen situation. She had all different perspectives of what we needed to do concerning her sister. And that is to stay away and allow her to
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINE
After a while, I followed him behind. Calling him to wait up on me. Then, just as I entered, Vea reminded me that she needed me to fix her relationship with her husband. I just told her to give me a few days because I was dealing with a lot at the same time. I just started talking to my wife. But still sleeping on the couch. And now that cat was telling me I was not good when it comes to relationship things. Even when I have told him something that will save him from sleeping outside the bedroom.I saw Maria coming back from the kitchen. Now we will have an extra person inside my house. Joseph didn’t like the idea at all. None of us liked it. But again, we weren’t doing it because of Suzen. But because the baby needed us.Then something that I haven’t been thinking about hit me. What if she is lying to us about being pregnant and her been thrown out of the house? What if this all thing is a ruse? Why would she lie to me, though? I don’t care what she does with her life. Unless she had
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER EIGHTY
“Roland, can we talk?” I asked as I stood at the door.He looked at me from his desk. He was reading something. A book. I never even bothered to ask him what he liked and what he wanted to do in his free time. What his favorite food was.I have been also ungrateful toward the old man. He knew everything about me. Treating me like his son and making sure I’m well kept like my parents would have. He knows all my allergies and how to better cook my food. And here I was with nothing about the man. About his family, if he had any.I don’t want to hear it from someone that he has one, and they were elsewhere when he was here saving me.He gestured for me to take a sit.“I know I have been a terrible child towards you. I should have been more considerate of what I did. I put not only myself and the two men in danger. But I did put you and Maria in danger as well. I made you worry about me. I’m sorry,” I spoke.He cleared his throat, “you made not only me worried, Justine. I was terrified her
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER EIGHTY-ONE
“This little thing says she is Maria’s sister. Should I allow it in or I should throw it?” Carl asked as he walked back in.“I’m right behind you,” Suzen spoke.“Carl, it’s fine. She is my sister,” Maria spoke as she walked to her. Carl walked back and sat next to his wife. I wonder how she was processing all this up. I mean, she was seeing a talking cat. And not your usual cat. The bastard was overly huge.Knowing magic exists is something else. But seeing a talking cat is way beyond that. That is crazier, actually. But she might as well get used to it since she will be leaving with us now. I just hope she has nothing cooking up. She wasn’t lying about anything. Or I will do something that I can’t even imagine.“Everyone meet my sister Suzen. She will be leaving with us for a while. Suzen, this is Carl and his girlfriend, Crox. And of course you know Joseph and also have a butler, Roland. You will see him later. And the one you found at the gate or saw him outside is Nathan,” she spo

I told Maria what I just heard coming out of Joseph’s room. And as I was explaining to her my theories, she just sat on the chair opposite me. Her face was expressionless.“But you can’t think he would do that, do you? I mean, we are talking about Joseph and my sister. They don’t like each other in the slightest. You saw what was happening during dinner last night,” she pointed out.“I know it’s crazy, but what can we do about it? Do you think we should confront them about it? Because I can’t stop thinking about it. And I couldn’t even sleep,” I told her.She was silent for a while, then spoke, “I think we need to give them time to come out on their own. Surely Joseph can’t hide this from you for longer periods. He will get back to us very soon,” she spoke as she rubbed a hand on my arm. “I know this has had you startled. But I need you to relax and think about something else. We don’t have to give them an impression we know something. I know he is you friend and the news that he lied
