Chapter Thirty-Eight: Family Stress:
Daiyu stared at her phone and sighed. Her parents refused to take
her calls at this point. I don't understand them, she
thought. She's their granddaughter!
This feud had gone on for close to a year. Her sister always lived
in her own world of freedom. She didn't care about what their
parents thought. Daiyu couldn't get her.
“Sister,” she said. “Why do you upset Mama and
Papa so much?” Ngo stretched her arms above her head.
“Does it matter?” she asked.
“What?”
Ngo leaned into her younger sister's face as she grinned. “I
do what I like. I will live my life how I like it. They get no say
on how I am.” Her words stirred something within Daiyu. She
grew to adore her big sister even more. Ngo always told her tales
of her wild exploits. Their parents on the other hand, weren't too
happy with their older daughter's hard partying lifestyle.
“You are in your twenties!” their father yelled at Ngo.
“You need to settle down and find a good husband soon!
Ngo all but laughed at him. “No.”
“Are you telling me no?”
“Yeah.”
Her father's face turned bright red as his eyes flashed gold.
“May I ask why?”
Ngo flicked back her long black hair. “I refused to be a weak
and submissive housewife like Mama.”
“What did you say?!”
“I am going to be my own woman.” Ngo's speech and power
to defy their father always marveled Daiyu.
That was until her older sister fell in love.
In one night, Ngo changed. She became obsessed with this Japanese
human man. Things got worse when Ngo became pregnant. The family
had so many questions.
“How could you let him be walking around alive?” her
father asked. “Are you not aware of our kind's
nature?”
“Yes I am,” Ngo said, rubbing her stomach.
“Then why did you spare him?”
“Because I love Aki.”
Her father snorted. “Don't be ridiculous!”
“I'm not!”
“You? In love with a human?”
“Yes! Why is that hard for you to believe?”
“It's not in our nature!”
“Our nature! Our nature! Our nature! Why is it always about
our nature? Humans don't always follow their nature! Why should
we?!”
Her father's nostrils flared. “If you keep seeing that dirty
human, you aren't welcome here anymore!”
“Fine. I will move out!” Ngo lived with Aki in his
apartment for the next nine months. After the baby was born, the
parents were dead.
Daiyu sighed as she looked at the ceiling. Papa, how could you
be so cruel? She might be half breed, but she's your
granddaughter! Their father refused to listen to his younger
daughter's reasoning.
“I have no grandchild!” he yelled.
“But…” Daiyu said before he hung up on her.
“Why, Papa?” she asked. The girl lifted her head when
she heard footsteps shuffling. Daiyu sat up as fast as
lighting.
“Who's there?” she asked. The Mother stepped out from
around the corner.
“Just a friend with the same problem as you,” she said.
Daiyu raised an eyebrow at her.
“What's that supposed to mean?” she asked. The Mother
now stood inches away from the mother girl.
“I don't want the child and you do,” she said.
“So?”
The Mother grinned like her fox nature. “I can help you
out.”
“And why would you want to do that?”
“Why shouldn't I?” Her tone sounded as smooth as velvet
poison.
