Bestfriends Shouldn’t Know How You Taste Chapter 64


    ke stops then shifts his attention to me. He sees how  mad I am, how I re at him in warning.


    “ke.” I  warned, furious that he was the one who told my parents  about that god awful day.


    He didn’t have the right. I was not ready.


    “I can’t keep quiet about this baby. This is a serious issue  that we need to deal with right now. I can


    deal with your  angerter but right now, we need to find out who’s  been doing this.” He grumbles and


    tears his eyes away  from me to look at my dad.


    I kept quiet knowing that whatever I tell him now  wouldn’t matter. He was determined to let my parents


    know about what transpired between Peter and I. I knew  he had good intentions but I couldn’t help


    feel anger  that he hadn’t asked me first.


    “It happened sometime about two months ago. Ashley  stayed back to research something in the


    library. I had  been waiting for her outside, she was taking long in  there.Too long. So I went to look for


    her, only to hear her  piercing scream.” He breathes out as if remembering the  awful day.


    “The scream still haunts me to this day.”


    I stiffen knowing he was about to tell them what I  dreaded. My hands felt cold, blood leaving my face. I


    could hear my own heartbeat in my ears, the rythm  uncontroble.


    The image of Peter pinning me to the desk as his hands  traveled up my thighes in my mind.


    Sweat coated  my palms, they became itchy. Itching to hit something.

    That is when I realized that even though I tried so many  ways to forget that awful day of being


    helpless, I was still  notpletely over it. I tried so hard, boxing, spending  time with ke, focusing


    on college. But it didn’t help.  Somehow Peter still had a hold on me.


    His voice is now edgy, on the verge of breaking down. “I  followed her cry for help.” He gulped, his eyes


    flickering  to me for a tiny second. “When I got there I found the  bastard forcing himself on her.”


    I realize that I wasn’t the only one affected from this  experience. ke was too and I never noticed it.


    Mom gasp in shock, her teary eyes snapping to me. “Oh  my baby.” She cried leaving dad’s side to


    come over to  me.


    Pulls me in a hug and cries on my shoulder. Why do I  feel so numb?


    I feel my heart squeeze and gulp the lump forming in my  throat. “I’m so sorry this happened to you.”


    She cries  pulling me tighter to her. This is what I avoided. This  pain that we all are feeling at this


    moment.


    “Mom.” I whispered and let myself go as I hugged her  back. I feel it, the relief as I pour my eyes out


    and use her  as an anchor.


    “Who is that bastard!” Dad roars. He had stayed silent  when ke finished talking but now he had


    absorbed  the words and he was beyond furious.


    “Peter William.” ke responds, disdain dripping in his  voice as he literally spits out the name like it


    brought a  bad taste to his mouth.


    “As in Kain William’s son?” Dad questions. “The man who  owns the restaurant downtown?”


    “Yes that’s him alright.” ke responds.


    It wouldn’t take a genius to know that dad was beyond  enraged. You could literally feel the tension in


    the air,  crackling like fire on burning wood.


    Mom and I pull away, knowing that a storm was brewing.  “Did he have time, you know.” You could hear


    the fear in  his voice, the anxiety of knowing the answer.


    ke shakes his head. “Thankfully I had reached in  time.”


    Dad visibly breathes out a sigh of relief. He nods then  walks towards the door, grabbing his car keys


    on the  way. Everyone is confused until he grips Arden’s wooden  baseball bat that was beside the


    door.


    “Honey, where are you going?” Mom questions equally  as confused as all of us in the room.


    He doesn’t turn around to answer her, instead he opens  the door. “I’m going to pay Kain and his son a


    visit.”


    My heart drums in my ears. This was not good. When  angered dad could be very intimidating. This is


    why boys  usually stayed away from me other than the three boys  breathing down my neck. And that


    was ke, Ryan and  Arden. They never let any guy close to me.


    Mom leaves my side to rush to dad’s. “Asher you can’t  just go there are you crazy!” She hissed


    following down  the steps after him. “They could call the cops, you have a  baseball bat for christ sake!”


    “Baby I’m only going to pay him a visit.” His tone is  deathly. There was no way he would just pay them


    a  visit. Dad was out for blood.


    I rush towards them feeling ke following after me.  “Dad please listen to mom.” I pleaded running up


    to  catch them. They were already beside his car. I was afraid  our neighbors would notice the


    commotion, they were  already so nosy.


    Dad doesn’t listen, instead he walks around the car to  the driver’s side and enters, cing the bat at


    the back.  My eyes widen knowing he was not bluffing. I turn  around to face ke and red. “Stop


    him.”


    ke tears his eyes away from me and stares at my dad.  “Honestly Ley, I’m a hundred percent with


    him on this.”


    I narrow my eyes into slits of rage. “I can’t believe you  right now!” I scowled.


    Seeing that no matter how much she tried to talk him  out of it, he still was hell bent on going so mom


    decided  to get into the car. Dad drives off leaving me staring at  the fast disappearing car. I was


    beyond shocked.


    What the hell just happened?
