The Devil's Touch
#05
It's getting dark. However, Elena still did not show her nose. Davis, the middle-aged man is waiting for his daughter's return with fret, however Elena is his biological daughter. He couldn't let that woman be out there without any news.
"Ele, how are you going? Why haven't you come home yet." Davis repeatedly looked at his wrist. It had been almost half a day that her daughter had been outside without giving her any news. He's feeling worried.
"Darling, who are you waiting for?" the wife walked up to him. He was astonished by the husband in the living room, like a restless man waiting for someone to come.
"My daughter's not home yet, Renata. I'm worried, what if something happens to Elena?" davis is nervous. The middle-aged man took his cell phone to contact his daughter.
Renata looks angry to hear that. The middle-aged woman tried to look fine in front of her husband.
"Not to worry. She's going home, let's go upstairs." grabbed her husband's arm with love.
"Re! Don't you know I'm worried about my daughter?" Davis brushed off the rough wife's arm. Repeatedly he tried to contact Elena, yet he did not get any answers at all. His feelings are getting more agitated. She was afraid something had happened to her daughter.
Renata looked on in disbelief at her husband. The man had just been rude to her, whereas Davis had never behaved like this before. Because s*alan's son Davis yelled at him.
"He'll come home if he wants to, don't worry about him baby!" shouted Renata annoyed. The unlucky child always brings trouble, even if he is not at home.
"You don't understand my feelings Renata. You're only worried about yourself, have you ever loved my daughter so well? Not at all. If anything happens to Elena, don't expect you to still be here Renata, I won't hesitate to kick you out." Davis threatened. The middle-aged man did not mess with his words. He really meant.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to behave like that. Don't be mad, I'm sorry." Renata approached her husband. He should behave calmly, lest Davis throw him out. He won't stay on the streets.
"Here Renata I'm not arguing with you. I'm gonna go find Elena." Davis released Renata's arm which was coiled around his arm.
"Alright, beware. Remember don't come home too late." Renata showed her best smile in front of her husband.
Renata looked at Davis' back which was getting further away. His smile disappeared once the middle-aged man was no longer there.
"I'll never accept it, remember it's fine Davis. My only daughter is one, Patricia Meyer." Renata smiled wryly. He took his cell phone to call someone.
"When are you going home?" ask someone who is there.
"So soon, is there a show that attracts Mom?" Yes, that woman is Patricia Meyer. The second daughter of Davis Meyer and Renata was in London for education.
"Mommy missed you, Patty. Are you okay there?" Renata looks worried, but he feels happy when he hears his daughter's voice.
"I'm good. Tell me, has something happened?" Patricia can catch her mother's voice sounding a little different. It seems like something happened that he did not know.
Renata exhaled his coarse breath. "Yes, your Daddy."
"No, your Daddy's mad at me Patty. He scolded me because Elena didn't come back home."
Patricia sighed. Thankfully, at least my dad is fine.
"What did Mommy say to make Daddy angry?" it is impossible for the father to be angry with his mother if she does not go fishing.
"I told her not to worry about Elena, she'd go home if she wanted to. That's what I told him."
"Just as Daddy was angry, Mommy told him not to worry because Elena didn't come back home."
"Why are you blaming mommy? Don't you know if Elena used to insult mommy, Patty" Renata said.
"Sorry Mom, this time you're guilty. I'll teach him a lesson next time if he still insults mommy, but he must have a reason to do it."
"It's up to you, Patty. Mommy's angry, take care of your health." Renata shut down the connection unilaterally. She is upset, but how else Patricia is her daughter.

Patricia let out a heavy sigh. The phone is placed on the table.
"What's really going on? I think I've missed a lot since I left." his mind wandered. It seems like a lot of things he has missed, are his mother and Elena still in the cold war?
The phone is back in hand. The woman was trying to contact someone. And once connected, someone's voice sounded from there.
"What's wrong? You don't usually call me Patri" a familiar female voice in Patricia's ear.
"Prepare my flight, Annie. I want to go home." the woman sounded excited when she heard Patricia say.
"really? I'm looking forward to your return, Patri. I'm so glad to hear that."
"Hm. Next week I'll be back, after finishing my graduation."
"certain. No need to worry Patri, I will prepare everything very well. Be prepared for your graduation don't think about a lot." Patricia felt overwhelmed. His friend's words really calmed his agitated feelings. Annie is her best friend the woman is always there when she needs it, and vice versa.
"Thank you Annie."
"Don't thank me. I've looked at me like my own brother, take care of your health." connection was cut. Patricia pinched the base of her nose, her head suddenly felt dizzy thinking about the state of her family.
