The Secret Angel 4

Ch 1

We are finishing our senior year today and were excited since that was when Jace met his goddess was his senior year. We had hoped we could see our goddesses since we had heard they had moved back but were being homeschooled this year. We kept tabs and they seemed to be happy when they were seen. Our contact Ryan said he just got a weird vibe between the girls and the dad. Except it’s been that way for years. He has followed them around for us and even when they weren’t near he noticed a weird relationship.

It seemed to start when they were young and as they got older it seemed to be more physical. Like putting his arms around them. Mom was drunk or gone a lot so when he was home they would all snuggle together on the couch under a blanket, they would sit on his lap as he nuzzled their neck. He tried doing anonymous tips multiple times but nothing would come of it. So we didn’t interfere and just watched.

It didn’t mean we didn’t feel like something was off. We got a call that mom and dad were leaving for the weekends and would be back the next day. So we just kept tabs and went about our days while our contact would see them on the weekends and they seemed fine. We know they turned eighteen a couple months ago, and had hoped we could get them by now but we needed to wait for the right time. Hopefully they will want to even come with us.

Our sisters went with us to school and usually it was customary for Tank and Frankie to take the kids but eight years ago our asshole father ambushed them and killed them. We still live with that guilt everyday that he did it. We know we didn’t have anything to do with it, but know my sisters feel worse about it. What’s done is done though like dad says so the task of chaperone has fallen to Niko and Tony.

They were great though since they had four to transport to the high school this last year. We were seniors, Autumn was a sophomore, and Kassie was a freshman. We know who our girls are and our sisters have been eyeing some of the newer younger guards. Dad and everyone else all say no! Of course Nate and Jessie laugh because it’s like deja vu for them.

We quickly head into school for the last day and laughed as the new round of Maxwells had taken over and ruled the school this year. The elementary school was glad to get rid of us, and the middle school just kept quiet. When we started going to the high school the principal I swear just closed his door and started taking shots. After our freshman year he retired. Can’t blame him though, when you have gone through about 20 years of Maxwell’s. When do you say enough is enough?

When the car pulls up we all jump out and we all go our separate ways to get through our last classes so we can get home and work.

.......

School was boring as ever and when we arrived home our dad met with us in the front room. We can see he isn’t very happy and seems troubled about something so we know shit is getting real.

“Boys I think there is something going on more than what we can see. The mom leaves Friday and has started coming back late Sunday. While the father has started leaving sat night coming back early Sunday. Our contact Ryan made another report and again they blew him off. They say they show up and talk to them and they say everything is fine.”

We know it’s bull shit because lately we have been there full time and they never fucking showed up. So now we will be dealing with this shit ourselves. Dad wants us to go over and leave them our numbers. What if they don’t want to get out though? We have known they were ours since we started going to elementary school. Then they moved away and we were devastated!

Dad kept track of them and even he thought stuff was weird. Though we kept our distance, we grew more and more concerned as the years went by. Now that we are done with school we will start working for dad full time. And will take Some guys this weekend to go see what is going on. They should be finished with school also by this point. So it’s decided this weekend we will pay a visit, and hopefully come back with our girls.

But for now work calls since there are no down times in this family. We contact the social worker and asked about the visits he has made. We want all the documentation because if shit is different there are going to be issues. We sit in our office going through papers running ideas off each other when our sisters come in laughing.

“You know it’s six o’clock right? Are you coming for dinner or do you need it delivered?”

We just started laughing at Autumn because she is definitely the sassy one. We get up to head into the dining area. When we approach we can hear everyone in the house in the same room and it can get loud. So we quickly grab our food and sit down and join in the conversations. We had to make it a rule no work talk at the tables. After eating we head upstairs to our rooms and when I enter mine I can’t help but think of my goddess Angelia.

I sit on the edge of the bed looking out the window, and just think about what she is doing right now. I grab my phone checking my email and see the social worker got in touch giving me dates of their visits. Well now I guess we will see what happens this weekend. What if they don’t want to come with us? Then what do we do, we can’t force them?

I hear a knock on my door and Anthony comes in asking the same questions I am asking myself. What will we do? How will we go about this? We start going over the situation and decide every evening we are going to make sure we are on the same page so come Friday we will be set.
