Watching her walk out of the party and getting into the car with her fiancé was hard.

I had seen her after so long. She had changed but I was still the same. That is what happens when you're old like me. New people evolve but your life just remains the same and that's why is best she's not with me.

She needs someone happening, not an old sore like me.

4 years ago, 4 years ago I remember that day when Miley called me up and told me things. And how I reacted. How I didn't listen to her. How I didn't let her speak. How I scolded her and yelled at her. How I made everything to be her fault. How I treated that young girl of 16 and how I ruined her. She probably requires a lot of time to trust anyone now.

She put so much faith in me and all I did was throw it all away.

It was 4 years ago but I remember it till date. After that day, I didn't call her up. I was angry.

After a week I realised I was too rude, so fûcking rude that I didn't deserve forgiveness so I didn't call.

I heard Holly changed her schools and I wasn't updated about Miley.

Being the pathetic man I was, i needed closure and a family, I went back to Gillian. We started a friends with benefit relationship and Gillian eventually fell in love with me again. But guess what, I didn't.

I don't love her. I was only with her for hers and Holly's happiness because they needed it. They needed me and I gave them my presence.

And here I was. Regretting that day.

It was going so good for Miley and I. Right now, we would probably be living in a cozy home outside of town. I'd be working from him and she'd be doing online schooling. We'd be great together. Gillian and Holly would've recovered and eventually Holly would've forgiven me.

"Luke?" Asked Gillian and I felt her hand on my shoulder.

"Hmm."

"Are you okay? Is she gone?" She asked before appearing in front of me.

You're very beautiful, but you're not her. You don't give butterflies in my stomach. You don't make my hormones rage.

Every time I masturbate it's not your face that comes in my mind.

"Yeah, just very shocked. She's gone. Holly was rude." I say and we both trudge back into the party.

"Hol has her reasons. However you did not have any reason to hug her like that. It's our 25th anniversary party, how the hell can you hug your ex like that?" Gill said. Literally growled.

"I'm sorry."

••••••••••

It was about 9pm now and all of us were home. We were super tired from the day.

"Dad?" Holly nudged me.

Holly, I did love her, my daughter, but damn she was a pain. She decided not to go to college at all and then instead of doing anything productive she just chilled in the house spending all my saved up money. The money i saved for her education.

I'm sad that my daughter doesn't know the meaning of education and has thrown it all away. Now she's sitting and wasting her time.

And it's not like she respects me for whatever I do for her.

"Yes Hun?" I asked her as I stretched my back.

"I'm hungry. Can you go get some chocolates?" She asked.

Was she serious? I was dead tired from the day and it was already so late and I just want to sleep.

"Holly I will tomorrow ok? I'm very tired right now."

"Dad, I want chocolates right now." She pouted her lips.

"Didn't I get you a stash yesterday? What happened to them?"

"Well that was bounty and snickers. I was Hershey's. Dark, milk, and Kisses. Please dad. You won't even do this for your daughter?" She asked feigning hurt.

"Holly! Could you be more mature? You're 20. If you want chocolate go get it yourself." I yelled at her, finally letting all my anger out.

As if her mom wasn't enough.

"Yeah, I should be mature so that I can fuck my friend's dad's right? You like that maturity don't you?"

"Shut up! I said shut the fuck up!" I snarled at her and grabbed her by her hand.

"You don't disrespect me under my roof. You've been nothing but a pest in this home. Better start looking for jobs because your timer is ticking. I want you out in 3 days Holly. You need to get independent." I screamed at her.

"Dad! What's wrong with you?" She cried and pulled her hand out of my arms.

I could see the wounds on her arm because of my nails diggin in.

Fuck, I went too harsh.

"You're a monster!" She yelled.

"Listen I'm sorry for the cuts but-"

"You get out Dad. You fûcking leave. I saw the way you were looking at that slût today! You don't think we know how much you still love her?! Please leave us alone. Mom wants the same okay?! That's why she's not here on your anniversary. She's gone out probably on a date with someone else. You're ruining everything again. Just fucking leave. I was so wrong that time when I didn't want you to leave. You're made our life hell!" She yelled at me.

Her words were hitting me like knives. Even at the age of 42 I was still dealing with family problems. Don't I have some happiness in my destiny?

"Holly. I'll go but remover one thing, to be successful in life you have to work hard which you're not. I'm your father so I will always be there but when I'm gone? You'll be alone. You need to learn how to be independent." I Said before I turned around.

"Are you blackmailing me? Well guess what, I don't need you fûcking threats. Mom already transferred money from all your bank accounts to ours. And all your property is now ours. You're the loser dad, officially. You have no place to go." Holly Said.

What? When did all this happen? Have I been this clueless! IVE BEEN CROSSED OVER BY MY OWN FÛCKING WIFE!

I didn't want to stay more things to Holly so I just ran out of the claustrophobic house and onto the street.

How the heck am I stuck in a situation like this? I guess the ghosts of the past never leave you alone.

I hailed a cab and asked the driver to drop me at Miley's.

I gave him what little money I had left in my wallet. I never though it would come down to this.

I knocked on their door, only to be greeted by Miley herself, dressed in a bra and a sexy little skirt.

How I miss that body.

"Luke? What the hell are you doing here?" She asked looking around.

"I-I need to tell you something."

"Can I come in?" I asked.

"Yeah hurry. Dad and Nick just went out. They might be back in an hour. He's showing nick his construction lands outside town." Miley Said before she let me inside.

She was still so welcoming, after all these years

Her house still looked the same.

"You want anything to drink?" She asked

"Nothing. Just Listen to me. I've been robbed Miley. Gillian tansferred all my money in her accounts and she took away all my property. This was their plan all along. They hate me. I have nowhere to go." I Said, tears pooling in my eyes.

"Geez Luke." She Said before she came closer and engulfed me in a hug. It felt so good to be with her.

"Baby" I Said by mistake as I nestled my face in her neck.

"No Luke. You can't call me baby. I'm not yours." She said befor she pulled away from me.

"Baby I need you Miley. You've been gone for 4 years and all I've done is remember you. I just n-need y-you." I Said sniffling.

"You've still not changed Luke. You only come to me when your family is messed up. You still only want time for a good time. For a long time commitment, you're the first one to run away." She sneered and folded her arms.

"I'm sorry baby, I'll never do any of it again. I'm just too alone and broke. I need you back. Please." I groaned and I pulled her closer to me.

"Please. I need your taste. I need to insert myself in your tight lil pussy. You loved it then didn't you Little girl. You loved it when daddy spanked you? Does Nick know how to be your daddy? Does he know how secretly you love to be a little girl? Does he know you like to be spanked? Does he know you love screaming daddy during sex? Does he?" I Said and shook her shoulders.

"I'm your daddy. You need me. I'm your love. Not him, not anyone else."

She didn't say anything, just looked straight.

But without wasting anymore time, I pulled her in and placed my lips on hers. She didn't kiss me at first, but then she started kissing me back.

Oh this flavour. I missed the feeling of her lips.

"God. This is a sin." She pulled away from me but didn't walk away.

"But I want it." She said before she rejoined our lips.
