No matter what her father said, Kelsey would always blame herself for what happened. It just felt like it was her fault even though it was not. Kelsey could argue about this for hours but she decided not to press the subject further. In her mind she would always blame herself and nothing would stop that. No one would persuade her otherwise. She was dead set on her final conclusion. It was no one's fault but her own.
Kelsey remained quiet as her father blamed himself yet again for what happened. She did not say a word but just looked at the floor with a saddened expression on her face. Sighing, Kelsey moved back to her window seat and sat down, bringing her legs back up to her chest. Her passion for life had been terminated when Jack raped her. She saw no reason to be happy anymore. Every time she had one shred of happiness in her life it would be taken away by some tidbit of drama. She was so sick of having her happiness replaced with sorrow. So, to prevent this from happening, Kelsey would be happy no more.
"Yes father, I do think that is honestly going to happen. The only people who know what happened are me, you, Adrienne and Jack. Adrienne doesn't even know who did it! She just found me in the halls afterwords. If I choose to forget it ever happened, I will. I just need to bottle all these pesky emotions inside," Kelsey stated, hugging her knees tighter. All she wanted was for all the pain to go away. If the pain would go away, Kelsey would be forever grateful. She believed that just bottling up these emotions would help her forget.
"You and I both know that you will do something. Your like a ticking time bomb of rage," Kelsey stated, rolling her eyes. She knew that with all of her heart that her father would do something to Jack. Robert LeBlanc was not the type of person to just sit back and let something like this happen to his family. He would take action, to Kelsey's horror and displeasure of coarse.
"Father, there is always a possibility that if I was pregnant that it would be James'. After all, we are married and.. erm.. sexually active," Kelsey stated, becoming very awkward when saying sexually active in front of her father. She was scared that she would be pregnant. Kelsey was not the mothering type. She would not be able to handle a child at this age.
"Besides, I don't think that I am pregnant anyways. There are certain signs to this and a woman just knows," Kelsey said, hoping and praying with all of her might that when next month rolls around that she would receive her red little surprise.

Robert shook his head. He was an expert of bottling emotions. Years of which had placed him where he was today - a drinker, smoker, and a horrible husband and father. He knew if Kelesy did the same thing, she wouldn't be in an any better place down the road. Robert watched her go back to the window, and sighed. "Kelsey," he said gravely. "You don't want to do that, trust me on that. Bottling things up makes it a million times worse in the end." He wanted to add 'look at me' at the end but, he had kept his drinking a secret from everyone except Anton. He knew and pointed it out to Robert when they last met.
Robert chuckled. Kelsey knew him better than he thought she did. That could be a good thing, or a bad thing. Kelsey, however, was correct. Robert couldn't deny that. She analysis that he was a ticking time-bomb of rage is also correct. Robert was and he knew it. He has tried many, many, times to keep his temper under control. For the most part, especially during this Hogwarts term, he had succeeded. Since Robert had found friends in bottles again, that wasn't an easy task. It never was but, alcohol intake made it exceedingly difficult.
He made a face. Robert preferred not to think about or know any activities Kelsey had with James. Yes, he already knew it had happened, he just preferred not to think about it. "We'll just worry about that bridge if we get to it," Robert said, trying to remove awkwardness.
Robert shook his head, and threw up his hands. "Please, let's not go into that," he said. Robert hadn't dealt well with grown-up type things with Kelsey, or any of his sons. Robert still liked to think that they were younger, and still needed him. That was far from true but, thinking that never hurt anything. In this situation, it seemed Kesley had needed Robert. He was glad she did. Robert would have been crushed had she kept this from him too. "I love you, you know that right?" he asked, tentatively, hands in his pockets.

Kelsey hated emotions with a passion. They were always making things difficult. Well, mainly the depressing emotions like sadness, anger, and all those fun ones. Life would be easier if they would just disappear. "Bottling it up is the only way I can deal with them right now! I don't want to be known as the girl with all the problems or the girl who is always crying. I want to walk around with a huge smile on my face even if it is fake. All I want to do lately is cry so in order to get rid of it, I have to bottle my emotions up. It is the only way I will get any sense of happiness," Kelsey told her father, revealing more of what she was feeling on the inside. Kelsey didn't really care about hiding things from her father anymore. He was bound to find out, he always does, so why save him the trouble? How much angrier could Kelsey make Robert anyways?
"I know its awkward, but we are going to sometime have to talk about this stuff because frankly, this whole marriage and sex thing, I have no clue what I am doing," Kelsey said again in an awkward tone. Kelsey didn't really have anyone to talk about these things with. She had married her best guy friend, and her best girl friend was a virgin, so she really didn't have anyone to give her sex advice. Though she would rather it not be her father, considering on how awkward the whole talk would be. Kelsey knew she would either be totally grossed out or go into a fit of giggles.
"I know you love me, and I love you too. It.. Its just that sometimes I feel that I am making your life more difficult. That if I wasn't your daughter your life would be perfect and so much easier, that I am basically ruining your life. I am scared to come to you for things. I feel like I am bothering you," Kelsey said in a small voice, looking down and not at her father. Finally Kelsey had revealed what she thought on their relationship. She feared that she was ruining her father's life. Kelsey had never revealed this to her father before. She would keep her insecurities inside, like she had done all of her life.

Robert stared at his shoes, with a slight smirk. The more Kelsey shared with him, the more and more he realized they were alike in some ways. Specifically, the whole emotions things. Robert was going to be the good father, and not let her do that. Kelsey was doing some confessing it seemed so, it was Robert's turn to give her something worth while. He kept a few silent beats, trying to piece together the words before he spoke. After all, this was a step for him, a giant leap into foreign territory.
"Kelsey," he said as gently as his voice let's him. Robert paused briefly before continuing. "You know how much I hate emotional....things. You know what I do? I bottle them up," Robert paused again. He hoped his words would really, really seep in. He did not want any of his children to end up like him, alone (well, almost as he did have Mackenzie) and a drunk. "Sure, you can do that now, and it'll work - for awhile. One day, the pressure in that bottle is going to build, until that bottle explodes. It'll all come back, twice as worse as when you first felt it. So much so, you try to find other ways to numb your feelings. Eventually, it'll stop working and make face what you've been hiding from." As Robert spoke, he realized that he really should follow his own advice. Robert probably wouldn't but, he wanted to prevent Kelsey from doing the same.
Please, awkward didn't even cover it. Robert shifted feeling extremely uncomfortable. Yes, Robert most definitely knew about sex but, did he honestly want to discuss that with his baby girl? Uh, no. Robert was again touching a foreign territory. One he had hoped to avoid forever. This was a mother's territory, not father's. "Oh Merlin!" Robert groaned. "Honey, I'm your father. Marriage I think I can handle....s-sex," boy that is a hard word to get out sometimes, "is not an area you should be discussing....with me. Ask your mother," he said, his discomfort rang clear in his voice.
Someone should right this down. Make this three uncharted territories Robert was going to leap into. This one, however, he had no problem with clearing up. (Really, right that down. It's the only time it'll ever happen...maybe.) Almost immediately, Robert rose and strode over to Kelsey, wrapping her in a hug. "You could never bother me, ever," he said. "I'm a complete asshole sometimes, I know but, I don't ever want you to be afraid to come to me for anything." Robert sighed, and pulled back to look at Kelsey's face. "I know, I have a horrible temper but, I promise I won't hurt you. I might yell at you - you know - but, never hurt you," he said.

Kelsey had found a way to numb the pain already. It was her dear friend, Mr. Alcohol. Kelsey found that drinking the pain away made all those pesky feelings go away. Every time she would go to Hogsmeade she would stock up on vodka and firewhiskey and sneak it back to her dorm. Whenever she had trouble sleeping, meaning every night, Kelsey would have a drink down in the common room. Getting drunk would not only help her fall back to sleep, but would clear her head and harden her, just how she wanted it.
"I've already found a way to bottle up the anger and a way to numb the pain. Alcohol daddy, it is a miracle worker. It makes you forget everything. I could drink it everyday if I wanted," Kelsey said to her father, craving a drink. She wanted one so badly that it made her whole body tingle. Was she an alcoholic? Kelsey didn't think so. She just wanted all the pain to go away. That is all she wanted.
"Talk to mother? I would rather get rapped again that be in the same room as that woman! I hate her more than anything in the world! How do you put up with her?" Kelsey asked her father. If there was one person who Kelsey wanted to hit, it was her mother. She was the most aggravating person in the world to Kelsey. How did her father put up with her? A thought dawned on Kelsey. Maybe her father had a mistress. Hell, Kelsey knew he did, it was obvious.
"Daddy, can I ask you something?," Kelsey paused, trying to gain the words to say to her father. She really wanted him to answer what she was going to ask honestly. "Have you ever cheated on mother? Do you have a mistress?" Kelsey asked, hoping her father could be trusted to be honest with her. If Robert wanted her to be honest with him, he would have to be honest with her.
Kelsey hugged her father as he came over to her and felt like she was finally loved. All those years of neglect and being alone seemed to be washing away, which was a good thing for her. "I'm just scared that if I come to you for stuff I will seem weak. I've never shared my feelings with anyone before. I'm just scared to be open. I'm scared that if I let you into my life, you.. you will just leave again like you did before and I won't be loved again," Kelsey said, looking at her father with worried eyes. She didn't want her life to go back to what it was like when she first started Hogwarts. She was so alone in her family, having been exiled for being a Ravenclaw. She didn't want to have to spend the days of summer along in her room again.

Robert's eyes widened. His advice came too late. He frowned, another failure to add to the list. Robert jumped to the conclusion that Kelsey could possibly be drinking as much as he did. No, he was not going to let her do that. "No, you can't drink it everyday if you wanted. It's...bad for your health. Besides, it's a terribly expensive habit after awhile. Plus, you think it helps now but, later on it'll make everything worse," he said gravely.
Robert couldn't help but actually laugh at Kelsey's reaction. He had forgotten that Kelsey's relationship with her mother was worse than his relationship with her. At least, Robert and Kelsey had times like these - when harsh words weren't exchanged. "I love her, that's how I put up with her," he said, after calming his laugh down to a few chuckles. It had made him feel a little better. He hadn't laughed at something in such a long time.
"You can ask me anything," Robert said. He, however, wasn't not expecting her questions. He stared blankly at her. The comfortable feeling he had seconds ago vanished. Once again, he shifted uncomfortably and cleared his throat several times. Robert took one look and Kelsey and knew he should tell her the truth. Would she think less of him? It was something he feared. He supposed he could tell her about Kenzie...and that was it. The others didn't matter to him. Robert looked down at the ground, scartching his neck. "I...I do," he said in a low voice. "To be perfectly honest, I never thought it would get this far," he sighed and looked up at Kelsey, trying to gage her reaction. "I still love you mother but, I don't even how to explain it to you, and definitely not to her. She'd take all my money - the rest she doesn't already have." Mandy's spending habits was the number one thing that bothered him. So much so, that he went so far to open himself a secret account that he was alwasy putting money into - in case of something such as divorce. He wanted to have at least something other than the clothes on his back.
"That's not possible," Robert said quietly, carefully hugging her. He didn't want to squeeze her too hard and push against a bruise. That would pain him more than seeing them. "I might not have always been showing it but, I do love you Kelsey. I always have." Robert let out a silent sigh, and let go of her. "Besides, anyone who stands up to me is certainly not weak," he said with a small smirk.

Kelsey really didn't care what her father had to say about her drinking habit. She would do it no matter what. It was her only way to get some sense of control in her otherwise messed up life. "It is the only way I know how to deal with everything. Drinking is the only thing I have control over in my life. The rest seems to be decided for me. There is no way I am going to stop even if it is bad for my health," Kelsey told her father, completely serious about it. She didn't care anymore about anything. As long as she had her alcohol she was happy.
As Kelsey's father told her about his affair, she felt no shock. She knew it all along. It was most obvious. The only time he was at the house was when he had to be, just like Kelsey. She never saw her parents kiss anymore, which was not a bad thing since Kelsey hates public displays of affection. However, deep down inside, Kelsey couldn't help but feel saddened about the whole thing. "So, what you are displaying here is that it is okay to have both a wife and a mistress? Say if I become bored with James, and I fall for another man, it would be alright if I am still married to James and have a boyfriend on the side? Even if I still love James, it would be okay to cheat on him instead of getting a divorce for the fear of losing money? After all, its okay if you do it, so it would be okay if I do it too," Kelsey said to her father, trying to make him think about what he was doing. Kelsey would never do that to James but she needed to use it as an example. She wanted to show her father that having two relationships at the same time was not okay. It was practically barbaric.
"Who is she? I want to know. No, I need to know who this whore is that has caught your interest. She is a whore after all. I mean, she is sleeping with a married man, with children! I don't care how much I hate mother and how screwed up our family is. You shouldn't be doing this!" Kelsey protested to her father. If there was one thing Kelsey hated was cheating men. She had been cheated on before and knew how it felt. She did not want that same kind of pain for anyone else, even her own mother. Another part of Kelsey was jealous that there was some other woman besides herself in her father's life. Kelsey wanted to be the only girl he had to take care of. What if this woman had a child with her father? What if it was a girl? Kelsey had just gotten the title as Daddy's little girl back and did not want to share it with any bastard of a child.
"But you are easy to stand up to. I have been doing it all my life! You are about the only person I can stand up to! I think it is because I love you so much," Kelsey said with a small smile, her face lighting up as it did when she had some sprinkle of happiness in her life. Through all of this mess, Kelsey was happy to have her father there by her side. It gave her the strength to keep going through these difficult times she was facing. If she didn't have here father, Kelsey knew she would have broken down and maybe even committed suicide a long time ago.

"Huh," Robert grunted. "Well," he said, rubbing the back of his neck. "Fuck it. I'm not going to give you a lecture about it. You are sounding to be a bit too much like me," he remarked. Robert cared but, he knew there wasn't a way he was going to get Kelsey to stop. He couldn't keep using himself as an example. She would just have to learn on her own. So, Robert wasn't going to do anything.
Robert laughed. Kelsey was going to give him a marriage lecture. Please, his marriage was over long ago. They hadn't really married for the right reasons to begin with. Besides, he hadn't even told Kelsey the half of it. Robert never planned on having himself a girlfriend. It just sort of happened, really. He frowned at the whole money thing. Robert sighed and rubbed his temple. He would prefer not to get into the subject with Kelsey. Not if she was going to turn it into this huge deal. Yes, it was a big deal but, Robert really didn't give a shit anymore. "Kelsey, you don't even know, what the hell you're talking about," he said with irritation.
His temper flared. Robert nearly shouted out something but, thought better of it and bit his tongue, literally. He knew it would be a good thing to say. "Look, your mother is probably out fucking around with someone too. If she is, good. I don't really care. I love her but, we got married for the wrong reasons. Hell, she probably already knows," Robert said, with a rising voice. He stood up, and shoved his chair away from him. Robert really was trying not to get mad. Kelsey had a right to her feelings. The family was screwed up, this was just something else to add to the list.
Kelsey's small smile, the light on her face he hadn't seen in some time, made things better. Robert knew that even though things were seriously fucked up, it could be worse. "Well, that's because I go easy on you, because of how much I love you," he replied, with an actual smile. It was a bitter sweet moment really, she was just lecturing him about marriage and yet, they could still tell each other, 'I love you'.

Kelsey smirked when her father gave up arguing with her. She loved to win, and she knew she would get her way with her drinking problem. "Well I learned from the best. Besides, no matter what you say, I will do what I want to do," Kelsey said with a wicked little smirk. She was really beginning to crave a drink more than ever. All this arguing and crying was really making her alcoholic self come out more and more. She didn't know how she became addicted to the stuff, but she did.
Kelsey felt like hitting her father. She really felt like her father was being totally stupid. She could tell that he was getting really angry with her but she didn't care. She didn't want another woman in her life. She didn't want to risk loosing her position as daddy's favorite girl. "Yes I do know what I am talking about, father! You made vows! I know when something is wrong, and this is wrong!" Kelsey screamed, her face getting as red as her hair. She really didn't know why she was getting so angry right now. She hated that her father was with another woman.
"You don't need to be with another woman, father! She is just a cheap whore, like I said before, and is probably out for your money! Nothing but a WORTHLESS WHORE!" Kelsey screamed, emphasizing worthless whore. She wanted her father to know what she thought of his mistress. In Kelsey's mind, her father's whore would be one person she would never like in her life.
"I want to know who she is. What is her name? Tell me the fucking whore's name," Kelsey said in yet another angry tone. If there was one person that she could take her anger out on it would be her father's whore. Oh she couldn't wait to rip her to shreds. Again, maybe due to all the trauma, Kelsey's anger had been bottling up inside and was now about to explode.

Robert cringed. He didn't want to think Kelsey picked up the drinking habit from him but, it was true. There really wasn't much he could do about it. Robert had to realize that Kelsey was old enough to make her own decisions. If that was the path she wanted to tread down, so be it. One day, she'd get to the point where she would either just stop on her own or, learn a lesson the hard way. He would neither encourage it or frown upon it, not without being hypocritical.
Robert's face fell slightly. This had been the one occurance where he actually held a conversation with Kelsey that didn't result in her screaming at him. While Kelsey had a point, it was wrong for him to keep an affair going but, if she only knew the truth about just how many affairs he had. There were years behind him that held several women. Even today, he held activities with more than one. Although now, he was beginning to feel guilty about them because of his feelings for Mackenzie.
He felt his anger boil once more. She wasn't the worthless whore, in anyone it was him. Robert held his ground. He didn't throw things around like he wanted to. Instead, he got an dark look on his face. So, Kelsey wanted a name did she? A few came to his mind, Mackenzie being one of them but, his lips would remain sealed. Kelsey had no business in his sexual life, even if it involved his wife.
Robert laughed. Money? What money? If it wasn't for his private account, he would be flat out broke. "I'm pretty sure she isn't after me for money I don't have. You know your mother, buy useless expensive shit," he said, not making eye contact with Kelsey. Robert was rather hoping this would blow over. Would it? Most likely not. He assumed Kelsey would go and tell Mandy. In that case, Robert was already prepared for that. If divorce was what the woman wanted, fine - he already had papers ready. In fact, he had included a good chunk of change to last Mandy several years. Plus, there was also a hefty amount for their children. It was amounts he had been hoping to give at their weddings. But, if a divorce was in the future - they could have it then.

Kelsey really wanted to know why she was so angry at her father. It was not like she liked her mother or anything. She just couldn't help it. Maybe it was the horcrux that was fueling her anger towards dear old Robert. Kelsey knew she couldn't use the horcrux as an excuse for everything, but she really felt like that was the thing that was making her go insane at that moment.
"Father, you keep not answering my question! Who is she?! Just give me a name, and no one will get hurt!" Kelsey said calmly, giving up on the whole screaming business. She knew she wasn't going to win anything by screaming at her father. Hell, it would probably just make them get into a bigger fight yet again. When they left this classroom, Kelsey wanted her and her father to be on good terms, not fighting terms like they had always been when they left. She took deep breaths, continuing to control her anger.
"Look, I'm sorry I got so angry. But you and I both know that you shouldn't be doing this. Don't you get bored of all the sneaking around? What does this girl have that our mother doesn't, besides a soul and feelings of coarse," Kelsey said with a wicked little smirk, laughing at her cheap shot at her mother. Kelsey had always wondered if her and her mother would ever get along like mother and daughter should. She had came to the conclusion that they would never be like that.
"You know, if you leave mother for this woman, I am honestly going to tell you that I am not going to think of her as my mother or a mother figure. She will always be your mistress to me and I most likely won't like her. Just giving you a heads up," Kelsey told her father in a stubborn voice. She really didn't want a mother figure in her life, she had one and she hated it. She was better off without one, or so she thought.

Robert was quite glad that Kelsey had stopped screaming at him. He feared that if she had continued, he would have just left. Robert wanted to avoid such a confrontation with Kelsey at all costs. He partially lost his temper once already, he'd rather not lose the other half of his control. Robert was afraid of what he might do if he did. He had no control over himself when he got like that.
Robert grunted lightly at Kelesy's jab at Mandy. HI=is wife did have feelings....and maybe a soul, somewhere. He had seen that part of her but, it hadn't been around in ages. Then again, Robert wasn't the same anymore either. It was something that attributed to his actions. Robert had to think over Kelesy's question. He didn't want to say the wrong thing, but the whole situation was wrong. He knew it was. Robert just refused to really care.
Robert chuckled at Kelsey's warning. If Robert chose to leave Mandy, he wouldn't expect Kelsey to treat any other girlfriend, or new wife afterward as a mother figure. Robert still remained silent, oddly. He thought back on Kelsey's previous question - what this girl had that Mandy didn't. If Robert was honest, he would say he didn't know. There was just something that attracted him to Mackenzie, and it was more than just the psychical/sexual level - though that was one of his favorite things about her. He just couldn't deny that there was something else there for them. Robert just couldn't peg what.
"Look," Robert grabbed a chair, and sat in it. He leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees. "I didn't plan on my relationship with this woman, to carry on farther than just one, drunken night. But, it did." Robert sighed, and glanced up at Kelsey. "I failed as a father, and now I've failed as a husband....one more than one occasion," he admired, and winced at it. His eyes dropped to the floor, glaring at it. Robert was beginning to get mad at himself. Everything just seemed bound to get worse. Improvement seemed unreachable. "See? This is what alcohol does to you," Robert said, pushing the "mistress" subject away. "It fucks everything up to the point where you don't recognize anything anymore."

In those brief moments as Kelsey sat there in silence, she finally realized how screwed up her life really was. Here she was, seventeen, married, a horcrux, a rape victim and an alcoholic. Her mother hates her, her father is a cheating alcoholic, her brother was not only dating a Weasley but a vampire, she was stuck between two sides, and mentally unstable. How could one person's life be so messed up? It was like she was attracted to problems. Again the thought of moving away crossed her mind.
As Kelsey heard her father say that he failed in being a father, Kelsey shook her head, knowing that he was wrong. Kelsey moved to the edge of the window seat and reached over, grabbing her father's hand and placed it between her two hands. She looked in his eyes and smiled. "Daddy, you have not failed as a father! I'm still alive, aren't I? I'm not totally screwed up! It could be worst. I could be on the side of a road somewhere, homeless, knocked up, dirt poor, and not talking to you. You've always provided a roof over my head and never kicked me out no matter how many times I provoked you to. I wouldn't ask for any other father," Kelsey said with a small smile on her face as she looked into her father's eyes to show him what she was saying was true.
"Look, I really need to get away from this castle for a bit and away from all of these people. I need time to myself. Could I maybe go to an room at a hotel or something? I would say go home but mother will be there and we will end up fighting again. Though I would love to be in my own bed," Kelsey asked. She wanted to be alone for just a couple of hours just to sleep and clear her head. Her dorm room seemed to always be occupied by one other person at all times, making it hard to actually have the time to cry by herself without drawing suspicion as to why she was crying. She just wanted to sort everything out in her life and decide on what she wanted.

Robert's thoughts kept trailing back to Jack Lestrange. Oh, there were so many, many things Robert would very much like to do to the guy but, he knew it was near impossible. He'd heard through the grapevine that Lestrange or, Riddle - whatever the hell he was going by - was a mind reader. Apparently, he could read the thoughts of people around him. That was probably the only thing that was keeping Robert restrained from tearing into him. One day, Robert would find a way around it. No on is invincible.
Robert's hard exterior melted at Kelsey's' words. By the look in her eyes, Robert knew she meant every word. He, however, couldn't help but still think he failed. He opened his mouth to say something but, he got choked up and looked down at the floor. Robert looked back at Kelsey after a couple of seconds. A small glint of a tear was in his eye. "Maybe so but, what kind of a father was I to cause you to try to get yourself kicked out?" he asked quietly. "Not a very good one," he added, answering his own question. Robert sighed and reached up to touch Kelsey's cheek. "I am sorry for all of this," he said gently. "You don't deserve this - any of it."
Robert nodded at Kelsey's request. He didn't want to send her to some strange hotel or something. She wanted to go to her own bed, Robert could make it happen. He knew Mandy's schedule so, he knew the hours in which she would not be around. "I can take you home. I know when your mother won't be around," he replied gravely. Robert would hate to be around and get between another argument between his wife and his daughter. He hated having to take sides.

Kelsey really liked this. She loved to see her father act like an actual human being rather than an emotionless rock. It was rather refreshing for her to see that he was capable of feeling things. She liked it when he could put down his wall and just let go of all of his ego. She could tell right now that her words touched him. Kelsey smiled, getting up from her seat to go over to her father. She wrapped her arms around him and embraced him in a hug. Boy this must have been the most time that these two have hugged each other in one day. Kelsey moved out of the hug and looked her father in the eyes.
"To be honest, you were never really the reason why I was so eager to leave home. Sure I hated to think that you hated me, but you never really did anything to make me want to leave. It was the beast I call a mother that made me want to leave. She made my life hell. I had to be with her every day and she was unbearable. You didn't fail as a father, she failed as a mother. I just want to put this all in the past and start over," Kelsey said to her father, putting a small smile on her face. Kelsey knew that the only thing that was keeping her home was her father. Even though she had hated him back then, she knew that he loved her deep down inside.
"Thank you daddy! You don't know how much this means to me. Just make sure that mother will not be home. I don't even know why I refer to her as mother. She has never been a mother to me. i should refer to her as the beast from hell or something like that," Kelsey said, the hatred for her mother sweeping through her voice. Hate was not a strong enough word for what Kelsey felt towards her mother. Voldemort and Harry Potter had a better relationship than what Mandy and Kelsey had.
