Living in Fear(Accepting)Danger is Near

[amithethird]

(Sure. )

Lena jumped when she heard a knock at the door. She walked out of her small kitchen and over to the door. What she saw waiting for her nearly floored her. Her eyes widened.
"Siela?" she said. But it wasn't Siela that alarmed her. It was the man standing behind her.
"Dad," she said, the word coming out as a choked gasp.

Siela-
"I told you he couldn't hide from me for long."I say with a smile. "We should probably leave them to their reunion."I whisper to Adam as I walk away. "So, what kind of work does the fisherman's wife need doing?"I ask.

Zuzu-
"Excuse me! Excuse me! Coming through!!"I exclaim as accidentally push right in between two people coming from Lena's house. "Sorry! My bad!"I call back as I am running full speed towards my destination.

Lena just started at her dad a moment, frozen.
"Lena, listen, I-" he started.
"Where. WERE. You?!" she half screamed, "Do you have any idea how long it's been?!"
"Lena-"
"I thought you were dead!! You were alive this whole time and you let me believe that you were dead! Do you have any idea what the past few years has done to me?! I have a freaking baby now, Dad!" she said.
"Lena, please let me explain-"
"No! I have nothing to say to you! Nothing!" she yelled. With that she slammed the door and stalked back into the living room. She sank into a chair, shaking. Her heart was hammering in her chest out of shock and rage. She heard Effrom start to fuss, but she couldn't bring herself to get up and comfort him. How could she comfort him in her state? She could really keep people calm if she wasn't at least somewhat calm herself.

Adam jumped as a girl rushed past him and Siela and again when he heard shouting coming from Lena's house.
"Siela, do you think that was a good idea?" he asked.

Siela-
"I wasn't going to let her keep believing her father was dead."I say bluntly as I keep walking. "Where are we going anyways?"I ask.

Zuzu-
I skid to a stop when I hear Lena yelling from her house. I walk up and slowly push the door open. "Le-le?"I say, calling Lena by the nickname I gave her as kids. "Le-le, are you okay?"I ask quietly sitting on the arm of the chair next to Lena.

Adam glanced back at the house and frowned.
"That might have been the kinder thing to do," he murmured, mostly to himself. He knew, at this point in his life, that if he ever met his parents he'd probably hate them too. After all, they'd never been there for him. He didn't remember them at all. He'd been alone his entire life. It was better not knowing their reasons. He was sure the stories in his head were better than the truth. He shook those thoughts away.
"We're heading back down to the docks. You might want to meet the fisherman and his wife. Well, his wife at least. He's probably gone out by now," he said.

Lena wasn't surprised when she heard Zuzu's voice. She was used to her friend letting herself in.
"My dad's alive, Zuzu," she said, half to herself, "I should be happy, but I'm not."

Zuzu-
"Le-le, a lot of people in your situation would feel exactly as you do, but he's your father. He must have a good reason for what he did. At least let him explain and if he doesn't then life will go on."I say. "If you want, I can tap in to see if he's lying and or find out his true intentions. How about it?"I ask.

Siela-
"Alright. Sounds good to me."I say heading for the docks.

"I would appreciate that, Zuzu," Lena said, "Thanks."
She sighed when she heard Effrom crying again. She stood up and went into her room to quiet him.

Adam spotted the fisherman's house as they got closer to the docks. Most fishermen and their family lived fairly close to the water it seemed. He knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer.

[Puppy_Paws]

Zuzu-
"No problem Le-le." I say with a smile as I wait for Lena to finish comforting Effrom.
