~Chapter Thirteen~
The bus ride was long and boring, when she stepped off the bus there were people everywhere. She suddenly felt so out of place. Her mother would kill her if she knew she was in Manhattan by herself. She reached in her pocket and grabbed the piece of paper. Before she knew it she was in a cab.
Krissy took a deep breath "212 Riverview Drive".
The cab ride seem to take forever. Close to 25 minutes later the driver stopped. Krissy paid him and got out.
"Oh my god this is such a bad idea" she said out loud
Krissy slowly walked up to the house, it was a beautiful old victorian style house. It was something you'd see in a movie. As she walked up the steps she looked to the side and noticed a little pink bicycle. Her heart suddenly stopped.
"He has a daughter?...am I even at the right house?".
Krissy reached the last step and walked towards the door, she took one deep breath and knocked. She waited a few seconds, no one answered. Krissy started to walk away but then heard someone open the door. When Krissy turned around there stood a beautiful blonde woman.
"May I help you?" she asked
"Y-yes does Ne-...." Krissy trailed off as she saw a little boy and little girl in the middle of the living room. Krissy suddenly found it very hard to breath.
"Are you okay?" asked the woman
"I have a half-brother and half-sister" Krissy thought to herself
Before Krissy could continue what she was going to say the girl ran up to the door.
"Who are you? my name is Abbi!" she had blonde hair just like her mom.
"Abigail don't interrupt Mommy's conversation".
Krissy stared at Abbi and almost broke into tears.
"Daddy's home!!!!" the little boy yelled as he ran up to the door.
"Yay Daddy's home" Abbi repeated about three times.
Krissy's heart began to race she quickly turned around. It was Ned, she definitely recognized him from pictures. Only his hair was little grayer. Ned began to walk up the stairs, he just stared at Krissy as if he'd seen a ghost.
"D-do I know you"? he stuttured
"No not exactly" was the only thing Krissy could say
"She just showed up, you still didn't say what you wanted?".
"M-my name is is Kristina" she began
Ned took one long look at her "Y-you look just like her!!!! wh-what are you doing here?".
"Look just like who? can someone please fill me in" the woman began looking at Ned.
"Faith, this is Alexis's daughter!" Ned suddenly said
"What do you want?" Faith blurted out
"Honey just take the kids inside..."
"Ned??!?" Ned then turned to look at Faith and she quickly obeyed.
Krissy couldn't help the tears from flowing down her cheeks. "Why?" she suddenly blurted out. "You refer to me as Alexis's daughter but you forgot to mention that I am also YOUR daugher".
"It's unbelievable the resemblance, you're hairs darker but...".
Krissy suddenly cut him off "Don't change the subject!!! I just wanna know why you walked out on me and my mother? I mean you never even called you never even wrote! my god what kind of father are you? did it not even occur to you to tell me I have a BROTHER and SISTER!!!!" Krissy couldn't help from yelling.
"I tried to be there I wanted nothing more than to be your father but Alexis pushed me away".
"Liar! you ran off with Faith and obviously started a bran new family and managed to forget all about me".
"Is that what Alexis told you?"
Krissy stared at him studying his face trying to see if there was any truth to what he was saying "Did you even love her?"
"Alexis? yes at one point".
"So what happened?"
"That's a question you should ask you're mother".
"Did you love Kristina?"
Ned suddenly found himself caught off guard but then replied "Yes, very much".
"Then WHY?!? why did you cheat on her with my mom".
Ned looked away, "I-I can't talk about this with you, h-how did you get here? I have to take you home".
"Don't avoid my question..please!" Krissy started to cry even more.
"I WAS NEVER UNFAITHFUL TO KRISTINA" he shouted
Krissy stared at him in disbelief "I don't understand" she said as she wiped the tears off her cheeks.
"Kr-Kristina, I don't know how to tell you this" Ned began
Krissy could feel her heart begin to pound again "What? t-tell me what?"
"I'm not you're father!!!".
