<<<ELSA'S POV>>>

"What the hell happened here?!" I exclaimed.

I looked around my house in disgust and shock. It was so messy; empty beer bottles, ripped cushions, smashed photos, cigarette nubs, lighters, penknives and just junk!

"Peter!" I screeched.

From behind me there was a shadow, I turned around and kicked the shadow in the gut. It grunted, that's when I realised who the shadow actually was.

"Peter!" I gasped.

I kneeled down and helped him up...then smacked him at the back of his head. He hissed and rubbed his head.

"What in the world was that for, Els?!" He groaned.

"Look at my damn house!" I exclaimed.

"C'mon, Els. You can't expect it to be so perfect all the time!" He laughed.

I glared at him. He gulped and quickly got to cleaning up. Good, he'd better too! My house is a right state! Me and the girls all had such a good time in Dubai! Well I did the same to Peter's house as payback. I also took his laptop so he'd have to travel back over for it! I'm so evil!

"Hey, how was the time at my place?" Peter asked from the other room.

"It was pretty good! Me and the girls had such a great time," I replied.

I drank some water. I'm tired and I don't really want coffee, because I do actually want some sleep!

"Well I'm jet lagged! I'm going to sleep," I yawned.

Peter nodded and continued cleaning up. If I find out that he's not cleaned up everything once I wake up, I'll kick him in his little thing. I didn't bother to get changed, I just fell onto my bed and fell to sleep. I woke up to the sun in my face. Oh I miss Dubai! Well...some parts of it, I still can't believe that I gave my virginity away before marriage...to the guy that broke my heart.

"Elsa! Are you up? Your sister Anna is here!" Peter shouted from downstairs.

"Coming!" I replied.

I quickly went downstairs and Anna stood in the doorway of the living room. I went over to her and gave her a hug.

"Anna!" I smiled.

"Elsa!" She cheered.

She then grabbed my wrist and guided me into the kitchen, signaling me to close the door so I did. She folded her arms.

"Is he your new boyfriend?" She asked.

I looked at her in shock and then burst out into laughter. She gave me this funny look, which only killed me more.

"You're funny, Anna. No, that's not my boyfriend. I don't need one and I don't want one...not anymore." I muttered the last part.

She looked at me weirdly and I just smiled.

"Are you ready?" Anna smiled.

I stared at her in confusion. She gave me this worried look, then she noticed my clothing.

"You haven't forgotten, have you? Announcing my pregnancy to Mama and Papa?" Anna questioned.

I face-palmed and dragged Anna up stairs. I told her to pick me out an outfit and that I didn't care what outfit she chose. Rushing into the bathroom - I had a very quick shower and dried my hair then styled it into a french braid and threw it over my shoulder.

"Anna, are my clothes in front of the door?" I asked.

"Yes!" Anna replied.

I opened the door and grabbed my clothes that were in front of the door. I slipped on my black bra and undergarments, now let's see what Anna picked out! A white sleeveless top with black spots, orange/peachy pants, a gold necklace with matching colour beads and light beige flats.

"Okay, Anna. I'm ready!" I replied.

I walked out the bathroom and smiled. She hugged me and started panicking...well, time to calm my little sister!

"Hey, hey! Come on, they'll be excited with the news! Both of them, you know they will. How many times did you get pestered about Mama wanting grand babies?" I laughed.

"I-It's not Mama that I'm worried about! It's Papa..." Anna gulped.

I frowned and gave her a hug; I'll sort him out if it comes to it. She's not going to kill her baby on his accord, Adgar is quite ruthless shall we say.

"Hey, he'll just have to deal with it!" I said.

"W-What if he disowns m-me?" Anna sobbed.

"He won't, I promise you." I smiled.

Anna walked out my room down the stairs, I grabbed my handbag and told Anna to meet me in the car. I went to Peter who was in the living room watching TV.

"Peter." I said.

He jumped up and smiled nervously. Yeah, I have that affect sometimes. He smiled gently and he relaxed.

"I need a pistol with a silencer." I said.

He jumped and looked at me in shock.

"What do you need that for?" He asked, seriously.

"I have some business to take care of, a little threat shall we say?" I smiled.

He looked at me in worry. He slowly got a briefcase out from under the couch and attached the suppressor to pistol, staring at it in his hand. He looked away and gave me it.

"I'll give it back, don't worry." I replied.

I put it in my handbag. I wouldn't want Anna seeing this, I don't want her to know what it's for either. I jumped into the passengers side and we made our way to Mama and Adgar's. Hopefully, Anna will give me a lift to Manny's afterwards. He's my father and he deserves a chance to know his daughter!

"Excited?" I asked my little sister.

"More nervous if anything, I'm just...scared." Anna sighed.

"Don't worry, they'll be thrilled! I'll make sure they are," I smiled.

She smiled at me and then went back to driving. I stared at my handbag on the floor of the car. Maybe Adgar will accept Anna and I won't have to use the gun? Well, I will use it if necessary.

"We are here." Anna whispered.

I looked up at the mansion and shivered. More bad memories...this isn't about me! This is about Anna announcing her pregnancy, she hugged herself and I grasped her hand gently.

"You'll be fine," I smiled.

She took a deep breath and nodded in agreement. We walked up the stairs and Anna stood in front of the door, she was about to knock but she hesitated then knocked three times. Mama opened the door.

"Anna! Elsa! Come in! Come in! Adgar will be home very soon," Mama smiled.

Anna took a deep breath and I smiled at her, she returned the smile and we entered. Anna was sipping away on lemonade and I was sipping away on water. I've had a strong dislike for coffee after so long of drinking it, it isn't the best with me now.

"So what brings my favourite two girls here?" Mama asked with a big smile on her face.

"I-I need to tell you and Papa something, Mama." Anna stammered.

Mama gave Anna a look of worry. You can tell that Anna is really nervous about this, I'll hold her hand through it if needed be.

"Anna is just really nervous, Mama! She's okay really," I replied.

Mama's face washed over with relief. Anna chugged the lemonade and started hiccuping, this mad me and Mama laugh.

"What's going on in here?"

Adgar stood in the doorway, hatred was all over his face as his gaze met mine. I remained calm, I'll be civil this once for Anna.

"Papa, c-could you sit down please?" Anna stammered.

I watched how worry was then written all over Adgar's face. He took a seat next to Mama, worry etched on his face.

"Y-You're not sick, are you?" He stammered fearfully.

Wow, that's the first time in a long time I've ever seen fear on his face.

"I-In a way but not in a bad way! Well...I-I hope from your perspectives." Anna gulped.

Worry was on both of Mama and Adgar's faces. I nudged Anna to signal that she had worried them.

"N-No, that came out wrong! Look, I...erm...well." She rambled nervously.

She shakily put the pregnancy test on the table. Mama looked at Anna in shock and started squealing like a little child. Adgar just sat there in shock. Anna grew more scared by the second, she looked like she was about to burst into tears.

"Papa...?" Anna whispered.

He then joined in with Mama and started dancing with her. Anna was immediately in tears of happiness and she hugged me.

"When are you due?" Mama squealed.

"January to February time, my first doctors appointment is next week!" Anna replied.

Mama, Adgar and Anna hugged. I felt so out of place, Mama tried to signal me in for the hug. I refused, I wasn't a part of their family anymore. Honestly, I don't have any family at the minute. Me and Manny haven't even met up yet, what kind of daughter am I?

"But Papa...I-I have a request." Anna stammered.

Huh?

"Sure, Anna. Anything!" He smiled.

That's when Anna looked at Adgar then to me, he caught on. A scowl appeared on his face, I did nothing. I don't play games with bullies. Remember to keep civil for Anna.

"Why?" Adgar hissed as his eyes never left me.

I decided to cut in.

"How about this, me and you in your office have a chat! We're both adults, aren't we?" I said.

Mama and Anna looked at me then back to Adgar. He nodded, but the scowl didn't budge. I couldn't care, I know something that will get the scowl off of his face. I followed him up to his office, whilst Mama and Anna stayed down the stairs talking. He sat on his desk and I closed the door, locking it behind me and putting the key in my back pocket.

"What the hell do you want?" He hissed.

"Just be civil!" I said, rolling my eyes.

"Over my dead body." He hissed.

"As you wish," I replied.

He was going to say something and I pulled the gun out handbag. I pointed it in between his eyes and he stared in shock and fear.

"Don't play games with me, d'you hear? Now be civil for your wife, daughter and your grandchild's sake and I won't put a bullet through your head." I smiled.

"You're bluffing!" He gasped.

I took the safety off and he looked like he was about to cry.

"Don't kill me!" He begged.

"Stay quiet, I didn't want to bring this out! If I did, I would have done it a long time ago! Now, you listen here! Be civil for the sake of your family, I already know that I'm not a part of it before you say something. I mean for your wife, daughter and grandchild's sake," I demanded.

There was this sad look on his face, something unreadable. He nodded and I put the gun back in my handbag. I pulled the key for the door out my pocket and as I was about to unlock the door.

"I'm sorry."

I stopped frozen in place.

"W...What did you just say?" I said.

"I shouldn't have treated you the way I did and I'm sorry...I was a horrible father to you when I shouldn't have been." He replied.

Tears streamed down my face and I turned to him. He saw the tears and approached me, I was against the door shaking in fear.

"S-Stay back! Stay back!" I sobbed.

He stopped and looked at me with hurt in his eyes, I slid down the door and sobbed hugging my knees.

"Don't hit me again, Papa..." I whimpered.

He was taken aback. I continued to cry into my knees as everything came rushing back into my head. The memories of my trapped and lonely childhood came back to me.

"I'm sorry that I ever laid my hands on you...I took you in as my daughter and I didn't treat you like my own, even though I should have accepted you like my own. Please forgive me?" He begged.

This isn't real. I'm getting tricked again, I grabbed my handbag unlocked the door and ran away.

"Elsa, where are you--" I ran past Anna and Mama and out the door.

I didn't know how long I ran for but it was quite a while. My sobs echoed the quiet abandoned street and I came across a house; I remembered it almost immediately, this was where me and the girls pretended that we lived together. I entered and everything was still the same, the hall, the stairs and the rooms upstairs with some of mine and the girls possessions when we were kids.

"That has all changed now," I sniffled.

I walked out and it began to rain. This was an advantage for me, I could cry in the rain and nobody would notice. I noticed a park and walked over to it, there was a man on the swing. He was holding something, I looked closer. Dad?

"Manny?" I asked.

He jumped falling back off the swing. I rushed to help him and he rubbed the back of his head.

"Manny! I-I'm so sorry! A-Are you okay?" I asked, panicked.

"I'm alright, just a bit of a bump." He chuckled.

That's when I noticed the framed photograph on the floor of the playground. It was a photo of a baby girl with platinum blonde almost white hair, light blue eyes, pale skin and she was wearing a little blue dress.

"Is that me?" I asked.

Manny nodded, he had the biggest smile on his face.

"You were the most adorable baby I had ever seen...I was so happy when your mother sent me the picture." Manny chuckled.

We both sat on the swing together. He smiled at the photo, he spoke again.

"You had no idea how badly I loved your mother and you...I missed her so much. I knew she was married as it was all over the news, I was broken but I was the picture on the news of her in her wedding dress. I noticed the baby bump and I knew I was her first, she was about four months pregnant at the time." Manny said.

I listened to him. He sniffled; he's crying! I hugged him.

"It's okay," I comforted him.

"It's not. I begged the stars for a child of my own, I didn't even know until your mother was four months pregnant in her wedding photo...I wanted a child to spoil, to laugh at my stupid pathetic puns, to giggle whenever I made a goofy face, to smile every time I came home from work, to hold when they were feeling down, to wipe away their tears, to sing to sleep, to care for...I did get a child but I wasn't there." He cried.

This made me feel bad. I'd been neglecting my own Dad the whole time, I don't care I'm doing something with him!

"Do you like carnivals? We could go there!" I smiled.

He looked up at me with shocked eyes and then a smile was on his face. He engulfed me in a hug.

"Thank you...you are the best daughter in the whole world." He sobbed.

I felt love for this man, he cared for me. I know Adgar apologised but Manny's been more of a Dad than Adgar even had been.

"It's no problem...Dad." I smiled.
