Chapter 6 Like Mother Like Daughter

• When did she arrive? Why was she here? What should I do? What have I done? This was bad, very bad!
• All these thoughts kept racing around my head as I felt shame engulf me and the musky dour of Uncle Ron's milk reached my nostrils. I looked down at myself only to find out I was covered in very thick, white mucus. That was a huge load he got off! When was the last time he did it?!
• I twitched my nose in disdain as I dared to look up towards the door.
• And there she was, my future sister -in-law, Sophia, to bear witness to my sins and shame. She had just come in to find her father humping away at me. The shock on her face and the pain in her eyes said it all.
• "It's not what it looks like Sophia. It was him. He came here and. .."
• " Will you shut up you slut! You took advantage of him. You are really your mother's daughter. "
• What? Does she know about mother too?
• "How dare you bad mouth my mother?! How dare you?! It's clear your father is the pervert here. He seduced my Mum and now he has raped me. I will make you all regret this." I screamed at her.
• Just then, Uncle Ron started vomiting after which he collapsed.
• "Dad!" Sophia screamed and rushed over to her father. She lifted his head and tried to wake him but he was not responsive. She became agitated and started crying.
• "How could you do this to him? He is sick and needs medical attention. How could you have him have sex with you in this state? Why is everybody in this family so selfish? Why?" She cried as she cradled her father's head.
• "He is sick,? I thought he was just drunk."
• I walked over to them and knelt down facing Sophia. I put my hand on his forehead. He was seriously burning up.
• Oh no! I actually felt the heat but I thought it was coming from me. Sometimes I burn up when the pressure is too much. When Uncle Ron was on me, I was really scared and aroused. I couldn't think straight so I thought I was the one burning up.
• 'If he is this sick, why is he drinking this much?' I thought to myself as I felt his heartbeat. It was erratic.
• "When did you arrive?" I asked her.
• " Just now. Searched the whole house but couldn't find him so I came here." She sobbed.
• I nodded at her response and withdrew my hands from uncle Ron's chest.
• "Why are you suddenly here? Riley said you will be traveling with your fiance this weekend. Shouldn't you be preparing for that? I heard they are fancy people."
• "Not that it's any of your business but my future mother-in-law bought everything I needed. I don't have to do anything." She sniffed.
• "Oh see."
• I wasn't surprised. Sofia has always been the timid one. Reason why she was with my brother for so long despite all his terrible ways. She really loved him and when he broke up with her, she was broken. Riley hated and wanted to kill my brother for so long because of her. Thank goodness that jerk stayed away from home. What would I do if my brother and my boyfriend starts trying to kill each other?
• "What you just said about my mum, I don't understand." I said looking her straight in the eye.
• She seemed frightened and became tense immediately.
• "Sophia, what do you mean by that?"
• " Nothing. I mean nothing. I was …"
• "Sophia!" I imitated the voice Daniel uses on her when she is being a little stubborn. She froze immediately and stared at the hand she had across her father's chest.
• " I am sorry. I don't know anything. I didn't see anything. Please I am sorry." She started crying again.
• "Okay okay. Calm down! I will ask the question and you will answer with a nod. Is that okay?"
• She nods.
• "Good. … Is my Mum cheating my Dad with your Dad?"
• She nodded and my brain paused for a bit. Then I busted out. Sophia looked me over, puzzled about my reaction.
• What!? No wonder!
• Suddenly, many things made sense.
• " I see. Since when?"
• "I don't know. I just walked in on them like I walked in on you and…and…"
• "And what?"
• " She threatened to have Riley sent to jail for molesting you if I should tell anyone."
• Wait! What?!
• "What did you say?" I asked, gathering myself. "... When did this even happened?"
• "Four years ago. On Christmas night."
• "Four years ago…"
• I was so confused. My Mum already knew I was having sex with Riley four years ago and she even approved?! So why would she threaten Sophia with that?
• "You are lying right. That wasn't what she said? Maybe you can't remember clearly?"
• "No. I remember it clearly. She said you are a minor and Riley is three years older than you yet having sex with you. She said if I should tell anyone about her and Dad, she would make sure Riley goes to prison and never sees sunlight outside a gate again. That's what she said."
• Oh my God! Mum!
• My butt collapsed on my legs. I was so shocked and weak. How could Mum be like that?
• With so much confusing information, my head started hurting. I needed to get out of there.
• " Sophia, just like Mummy said, you can't tell Riley about what you saw today too, otherwise things will go really bad." I stared her down so she would get the message.
• I stood up to go get my bag where I tossed it.
• "Like mother, like daughter. All of you are monsters. You ruined our lives."
• "No we didn't. You get to live like a Princess and Mummy even went out of her way to get you married to a wealthy, prominent family in the capital. What monster will do that? Unh?" I asked sarcastically.
• " What sort of woman sleeps with her father-in-law if not a monster?"
• That hit a spot even though It wasn't my fault. But I wasn't going to let myself feel guilty.
• By this time, I had finished wearing my dress. I walked up to the toilet door before responding to her.
• "About that, your father really raped me. I think he was hallucinating because he kept calling me Helena."
• "Lies! You must have seduced him seeing that he is drunk."
• At this point I was really getting annoyed so I just rolled my eyes at her silly utterances.
• "Just like my mother has evidence to put Riley in prison for sleeping with a minor, I also have evidence to show your husband that you are cheating on him with my brother."
• "What?! I am not cheating. I have not seen your brother since he left!"
• " I know." I smirked at her.
• "... But what do you think will happen if videos of you having sex with a faceless man suddenly appear on the net? Will your man still want you? Will his family fawn on you again?" I sneered with satisfaction at the incredibly shocked look on her face.
• "What..what.. What are you talking about? There is no such tape, you are lying!"
• She literally dropped her father's head and rushed at me. I thought she was going to grab my head and beat me but she stopped right in front of me and screamed into my face.
• Scared of getting hit, I quickly opened the toilet door and rushed in. Then locked the door. I was so fast, I must have shocked her because the moment I got into the toilet, everywhere became silent, making the clicking of the door locks very loud as I turned them.
• "How did you get that video? Did Daniel give it to you? He promised he would delete it."
• Her voice was quivering and I could imagine her face, cascading with tears.
• "He didn't give it to me. I stole it from his phone." I replied.
• "I will not tell Riley anything, please delete the video. I will do anything you say Caitlin. Please delete the video." She started sobbing again.
