Chapter 154

I breathed out a tired breath as I paged through the boring magazine I had in my hand; I’ve been trying to convince my siblings that we should look for the person that shot our father who happens to be Autumn making this so easy for us. As I said, I have been trying and dismally failing, I can’t even talk to Mom I’ve been acting like a spoiled brat so much she can’t stand my sight. “Earlier on, when you asked me why I am being like this?” I reminded Tyson while nudging his arm with my elbow to get his attention. “Yeah?” he said without looking at me, I rolled my eyes at the ignorance. “Maybe I felt like this is one of his games that he does to get us to drop everything and turn to him. I have known you guys for a few months, and I have never gotten the attention I needed from the parents that were absent in my life for eighteen years. I feel like he takes the attention and spotlight, that I should be getting from him.” I finished my venting with an exasperated sigh.

“You could’ve just told us that you want attention instead of acting out.” Tyson said as he turned to look at me with a crooked smile, I clicked my tongue and playfully punched him with the magazine in my hand as I laughed. “I knew you weren’t going to take me seriously; I should’ve just waited for Taylor to come back instead of talking to you. I’m trying to make you understand me in a different level and you toss that opportunity back in my face, ungrateful bastard.” I said shoving his head with my finger as I got up and went to the bathroom. “Hey, you know you don’t have to pretend like you have to pee just to get a chance to cry?” Tyson jokingly asked me; I raised my middle finger to him without turning to look at him to know that he’s laughing. I quickly did my business in the bathroom and walked back to the waiting room to say my goodbyes to Tyson, I honestly can’t spend another minute here I will go crazy.

I walked in the waiting room and the doctor was talking to Tyson with his back facing me, I quickly walked up to them to hear what he has to say because I know Tyson will not repeat anything for me, well not the same way he was told. “Hi, Doc. Sorry to interrupt, my name is April.” the words that I was supposed to say just somehow got stuck somewhere in my throat, I have never met such a gorgeous man in my life. I stared at him for a second and quickly regained consciousness and stuck out my hand for a handshake, he gave me a small smile and shook my hand as he got back to the matter that brought us there. “Nice to meet you, April. Your father is fine, we took the bullet out and the wound immediately naturally healed, and I think this means the bullet had some kind of poison that blocked his superpowers from working. Whoever called for help did you a favor he could’ve died, the bullet was terribly close to his heart but thank God, we saved him.” He said as he finished what he was saying my eyes were intensely focused on his pink soft-looking lips. “We are going to keep him today for close inspection, but you can go see him your mother is already there.” He walked away and I stared at him without saying ese.

“He has such broad shoulders; I love a man with broad shoulders.” I said in a low voice, I knew Tyson is probably going to punch me in the face for saying that, but that man is worth it. “What do you know about broad shoulders, April? You’ve never been with a man before.” He said as he walked away following the same the doctor went to, I slowly followed behind him in hopes to run into the handsome doctor. “I think I am about to find out why I like broad shoulders, there’s something about that guy. Did he tell you he’s name?” I asked following closely behind him, he didn’t reply as we entered the room Dad was placed in. As soon as we walked Taylor walked in with an uncomfortable look on her face, I quickly looked behind her worried about the look she has. Lucky for me Autumn stood at the doorway staring at me with a daring look on her face, I clapped my hands and sarcastically laughed, she’s daring me to kill her.

“April, don’t you da-“well too late Dad, I threw myself at her and she caught me. We both hit the floor, and I immediately stood up and started kicking her anyway that I could get my feet in. This girl right here has caused me so much pain, from high school I had a shitty life because she sort of did not like me and I think it has come to an end. I felt someone grab my up-body and threw me on the couch away from the devil who sold me so many times I’ve lost count. “You don’t have to solve every problem with a knuckle, sometimes you have to talk to get it out.” Tyson said as he pointed his finger in a warning manner, he winked at me as soon as he realized no one is paying attention to us, he’s such a terrible influence. I quickly noticed the same hot doctor I met a few minutes ago, crouch down and inspect the devil. I instantly got worried about what he is going to make of this, I honestly did not mean to be in his bad books, I just want to be in his bed. I sat there as I watched him softly trying to see if she had any wounds on her and he stood up as his perfectly shaped eyebrows raised up in question, he looked at me and shoved his hands in his jeans which he had under his coat. Oh gosh, he’s so hot. I just want him to take me home with him. “She’s bitch.” I said plainly avoiding eye contact with him, he will never ask me out why would he want to be alone in his bedroom with a woman who loves violence. Of course, the date would start somewhere public, but we all know where a good date ends, if he would just give me the chance. “April, Autumn did not shoot me. A random woman knocked on the door and asked for you, I asked why she is asking for you and she did not answer me instead she took out a gun and shot me.”
