Chapter 17 - Chapter Fourteen.

Lyle tiredly opened His Violet eyes, Why do I feel so Exhausted? Lyle Had thought to himself, he turned his head to where Aubrey

Would be....but Aubrey was not there anymore, His eyes were wide with Panic as

He immediately stood Up from the couch,

Before he could do anything, he smelled

Something delicious coming from the Kitchen, He walked Into the Kitchen only

To be met with a surprised but welcomed Sight, Standing over the stove Cooking what

Looked to be Pancakes was Aubrey, Pancake Batter was On her face somehow making her

Look even more attractive to Him, her hair

Was pulled back into a Ponytail, she wore

a Light purple T-shirt and ripped Blue Jeans

She wore a Bright Pink Apron that read:Kiss the Chef, Lyle chuckled Lightly, at the sound

Of his chuckle, Aubrey turned around with a

Beautiful smile on her Lips, "Hey!" She said,

"Hey" Lyle replied with another chuckle,

He walked toward her until he was directly

In front of her, He gently put his hands on

Her waist to Pull her closer as he pressed a

Gentle kiss to her Lips, Her toes Curled as

Butterflies fluttered In her stomach, He pulled

Away after a few minutes, Aubrey's face was

Flushed as were Lyle's, "I...was worried that

You left when You weren't beside me when I Woke Up" Lyle admitted after two minutes of

Silence, "Baby, that won't happen as Long as

You keep your promise of trying to be better"

Lyle smiled gently before Aubrey turned back

To the stove to finish making the Pancakes,

"Why don't you have a seat? Breakfast Is

Almost finished" Lyle nodded as he sat at

The Kitchen Table, "Is Kayla still asleep?"

"Yeah, She Is a heavy sleeper, I Believe that she could actually sleep through a tornado"

Aubrey replied with a giggle, Lyle Chuckled,

He believed that Kayla definitely could,

"Breakfast Is Served!" Aubrey said Happily as she Placed Lyle's Plate In front of him,

"Thank You!" Lyle replied, "After Breakfast, I'm going to go upstairs to feed Kayla"

"While You do that.... I'm going to go to the nursing home downtown to visit....my Father" Lyle said that with a hint of Disgust, Aubrey

Looked at Lyle with a mixture of Surprise and

Concern before asking, "Why? If you don't mind me asking?" Lyle bit his bottom Lip as

He debated about rather or not he should

Tell her....He believed that....this was His

Problem and he didn't want to burden her

With it, "No reason, I Just hadn't seen Him

In awhile" Aubrey raised her right eyebrow as she did not believe Him one Bit, "Lyle" Lyle sighed, "I... believe that I have a memory that I'm suppressing....and I Believe that my Father can help me Unsurpress If" Lyle said,

Aubrey's expression soften as she asked,

"Do you want me and Kayla to go with You?"

"No, It's okay! This....Is something that I Have to handle on my own" Lyle said, "Okay....But If You need anything baby.... I'm here and so Is Kayla!" Aubrey said, Lyle

Smiled gratefully at her as he nodded,

Soon enough, Lyle was In His and Aubrey's

Black SUV as he drove toward the Nursing

Home, He would be lying If he said that he

Was not nervous....facing his Father after

So many years....because he Is, Lyle Is

Hoping....that By Seeing His Father or

Talking to him....he Is able to Unlock That

Suppressed memory, Upon arriving at the

Nursing home, He Is Immediately Greeted

By the sight of his Father, He looked to be

Around fifty years old, Lyle realized that

He and His Father looked nothing alike, His Father once had short Light red hair, But now

It was as white as snow, his eyes were that

Of a dark brown Instead of the Violet that

Is Lyle's eyes, Glenn stood about six-foot-three and had a Lean Build, he wore a dark

Green T-shirt and dark blue Jeans, he had

Fair white skin, the moment Glenn's eyes

Met Lyle's, Glenn's Expression twisted Into a

Sneer and his dark brown eyes were filled with Hatred, "What are You doing here, Bastard?" Lyle winced as he walked toward

Glenn, "I came here....to ask about why....I Became you..." Lyle told Glenn, Glenn's eyes

Flickered with Amusement for a second which made Lyle Clenched His Jaw,

"Ah.....You had been Abusing Your Bitch

As well, Have Ya?" Glenn asked, Lyle's

Hands curled Into Fists as he struggled to

Control his Temper, "You Became like me because You saw what I was doing, a small part of You believed that It was an okay thing

To do" Glenn told Lyle, "That's Not true! I felt disgusted by what You were doing! I remember that Much at the very least!"

"Some part of you may have been disgusted

But....another part of you had still Believed

It was okay to do what I was doing" Glenn said, without warning....a memory flashed

Through Lyle's head, There Lyle was....a little

Kid again, watching as Glenn beat his mother

A...part of him had felt disgusted but another...part wanted to follow In Glenn's

Footsteps....Young Lyle wanted to know what

It would feel like....to have so much power

Over another living being, as such....every

Time His big sister Maria would go to school

And Glenn, His mother Layla to work, young

Lyle would sneak Into his Big Sister's room

And steal as much Barbies as his little arms

Could carry, he would go Into his room and

Beat them....he relished In It, but a small

Part of him would tell him to stop....but he would ignore that part, he clutched his head

Before letting go, his eyes were wide with

Shock, "Remember now, do ya?" Amusement coated Glenn's Voice, "Why did You not stop me!?" Lyle asked, "Why would I Have?" Glenn Retorted, "Just so that I wouldn't have turned out like you!" Lyle yelled, "If....I had known what....I know now

I would've made sure....that I would had finished the Job In killing you" Glenn said,

He....tried to kill me? Lyle thought to himself before another memory flashed through his

Head, Lyle had Just laid down In his bed,

It was King-sized as such It was entirely to

Big for his little body, but he didn't mind as

It meant he no longer had that....old bed,

Just as He were about to go to sleep, he

Felt a pair of hands wrap around his neck and

Began to squeeze, Lyle's Violet eyes snapped back open, over Lyle was Glenn

The same man....that Lyle believed was

His Father, "D-Dad, S-Stop!" Lyle choked out,

"Shut Up, Bastard!" Glenn sneered, Lyle's

Eyes felt heavier suddenly, Lyle was to young

To process It....but he was going to die....

If Lyle's Mother Layla had not entered the room when she did, Lyle clutched His head

Again before letting go, "I-I-" Lyle trailed off

As he did not know what to say, Glenn had

Tried to murder Him! Lyle had believed that

Glenn was his Father....Sure Glenn and Lyle

Looked Nothing alike....But Lyle and Glenn

Had assumed that Lyle had got his looks

From a Ancestor.....Which Turned out to be

Wrong as Layla Admitted to cheating on him

Once, "Leave" Glenn said, And Lyle did so without another glance back toward Glenn,

As Lyle pulled Into the Driveway, he leaned

His head on the steering wheel and allowed

His tears to fall, But....another Question was

Brought to Lyle's Mind, If his mother had lied

About Him being Glenn's son....what Else Had she lied about?
