Daddy's Love novel Chapter 37

Jay's pov

It's been two days since I last saw Grey the awful evening. I have been leaving him messages and calls to which I am not getting any replies. Carol is so upset. Our house might look all well settled and clean but we are all terrifyingly broken within. I was planning on moving in together with Grey, how could have I not forgiven him earlier? I mean I possibly would have reacted the same way had Carol told me that Grey was touching her or something. It's night already and I have this indomitable urge to meet Grey, to say sorry and to make love to him.

I should wait till morning, maybe. Or not. After checking on Carol's and ensuring that she is sleeping peacefully I go over to Grey's.

I open the door with the key I have. I go to Ana's room. She is sleeping with Ems. I kiss her cheek and go over to Jay's room. It's empty. I'm pretty sure he isn't downstairs in the kitchen or is the living room. Just when I am about to leave, I hear sounds from the bathroom. I sit on his bed and wait for him to come out. After fives when he is still inside, I open the door and go in.

"What the fuck do you think you're doing?!"

I almost scream at him. He is sitting on the closed toilet lid and is about to inject himself with drugs.

"What are you doing here?! And whatever I do should not be any of your business anymore!" He counters.

"Enough is enough! You are so done showing attitude to me!" I grab him by his arms and drag him into the bedroom. "I'll show you what my business is!"

I open my belt and push him on the bed.

"Stop Jay! Listen!" He screams.

"If you think for one second, I will let you kill yourself like that! And what about Ana, Eh? You fool!" I start raining smacks from my belt on his butt.

He keeps shouting, crying, asking me to stop. I won't, until I am 100% sure he gets the message loud and clear. I take a break to let him catch his breath.

"Since how long have you been doing this? No wonder you looked so sick." I ask him over his sobs.

"You idiot! This.... "

Smack smack

He hollers. "I don't think you are in a position to give me attitude, Grey."

"It's not...."

Smack smack smack smack smack

"It is very much my business! Just answer the damn question!" I scold him.

"Two weeks."

Smack smack smack smack smack smack smack smack smack smack smack smack smack smack smack

"I thought you knew better than that. This stops now, do you understand? This stops right this instance!"

He is about to say something in between sobs when we hear Ana crying.

" I'll go put her back to bed and if you move even an inch from where I am leaving you, you will have it from me." I say and go to Ana.

I soften my expression when I see her sitting Criss cross apple sauce on her crib and crying.

"Hey, beautiful. What's wrong?" I pick her up.

"Uncle Jay? Where daddy?" She looks pleasantly surprised to See Me.

"In the bedroom. Had a bad dream babe?" I feel her diaper and it's wet.

"There a monster in here uncle Jay. I heard noises." Aww. I lay her down on the changing table and start to change her diaper.

"No baby, that was me and your daddy. We'll be quiet, okay?" I pick her up to tuck her back in.

"No monsters in the cupboard? Or under the bed?" She asks.

I bend down to check for monsters under her bed and then check the cupboards too.

"Checked. Definitely no monsters honey. Good night. Sleep well." I kiss her forehead and tuck her in with Ems.

Time to go back to Grey.
