It was the weekend, and I was fucking thankful for that because that meant I could do whatever the fuck I wanted... Or so I thought.

Megan decided that we should 'spend some quality mother/daughter time together' even though I made it extremely fucking clear to her that I didn't want to talk to her homophobic arse ever again.

So I walked to the front door, because I was the only one up, since Papa was at work and Dad had just finished a night shift, and I opened the front door, Megan was just chilling there like she had no fucking cares in the world.

"Megan, why the fuck are you here?"

"We need to talk"

"Do we now?, you've made your opinions abundantly clear-"

"You made me look like a right nelly when you left the motorway services youn-"

"You were shit talking about the man who raised me Megan!, no sane motherfucker is going to stay with a fucking delusional, crazy, shit talking lady!"

Megan looked like she was gonna bust a vain and die from all the anger that she felt, (at least that was what it looked like to me), though to be honest I didn't give 2 shits about that, because she shit talked about my Dad and I don't take too kindly to anybody doing that.

"You can't talk to me like that!!, I'm your mother!"

"Some fucking mother you are Megan, leaving your dying premature baby in the fucking hospital"

"That's not fair Ro, I was onl-"

"Don't give me the 'I was only 16' speech!, because that's bullshit and we both know that it is!, Dad was a week away from his 14th birthday!, so he was barely a teenager and he raised me without any help fucking from you!, my so called mother!, so you saying 'I'm your mother' means absolutely nothing to me because you have done nothing to earn that title!"

"Ro, sweeti-"

"Don't fucking 'Ro' me, just fuck off and pretend that I don't exist, you're good at that!"

I know that was a low blow for me to pick at, but at this point I wanted the conversation to end and for Megan to just leave me the hell alone.

"Is that how you feel?"

"No shit Sherlock, now piss off!"

Dad came into the sitting room and saw Megan was at the front door, and then proceeded to actually get rid of her because he knew that Megan was bothering me.

"Meg, what are you doing here?"

"Trying to talk to my daughter, but she doesn't listen"

"You fucking-"

"She does listen Megan, but after you hear it 20 times it becomes meaningless, I mean after what you put our daughter through I'm surprised she hasn't landed you on your arse, now please leave us alone"

Dad closed the door, and then he pulled me into a hug.

"I hate that she pretends that nothing has happened"

"I know Baby, I know, why didn't you wake me when she knocked on the door?"

"Because I'm not an arsehole who wakes people up after a night shift for something as petty as Megan being at the front door"

"Ro, you wouldn't be an arsehole for waking me up because I don't usually sleep after a night shift anyway Buba"

"You'd kill me if I didn't try to sleep though Dad"

"(Laughs), yes I would"

"Why is it ok for you and not for me?"

"(Sighs), Rowan Sweetheart, you have multiple people who care about your wellbeing, whereas before you were born the only person who cared about my wellbeing was Nana, and she was fighting Cancer at the time"

I started thinking about what would've happened if he did put in foster care, because my head is a dark place sometimes my dudes.

"Dad, why didn't you put me into foster care?"

"Why would I?"

"It would've been easier"

"You're probably right about that, but I soon as I saw you looking at me with your big, blue doe eyes, you had a special place in my heart, so I couldn't ever give you away Sweetheart"

"I would say that you sounded really sappy just then Dad but I realised that I would've actually been fucked if you gave me up"

"(Snorts), I love you too Buba"

So Dad made me a cup of tea and I sat on the couch because I was on edge a little bit, because Megan came unannounced and then tried to excuse her actions, which I was not about her doing that to be honest with you.

"Dad"

"Yeah Baby"

"Is that all I'll ever have of a Mum?"

"I think that it depends on what you'd define a Mum?"

"Somebody that cares regardless of what you do or who you are-, oh wait I literally have that with you and Papa and also Auntie Jade"

"(Snorts), I'm glad that you came to that conclusion Baby"
