Jodie held onto Jenny until she was all the way in the living room. As they walked in, Nik and Lainie were entering the kitchen. The toddler was screaming, but Jodie couldnt concentrate on that right now. Jenny was still struggling to get out of her grip and it was just making Jodie even more mad. She threw Jenny on the couch and as she made an attempt to get up, she pointed her wand. "Sit!"
Jenny was infuriated. Her own sister was turning on her now? This was bizarre! She wasnt going to be pushed around like this. She promised herself she would never be pushed around again after she had moved out of her dad's house and she wasnt going to break that promise.
But as Jodie pointed her wand at her and told her to sit, she stopped. She never heard her voice go that low before. Jodie never resorted to her wand either. Her older sister meant business. Benji was loud, obnoxious and the love of the family. While she was the quiet and kept to herself. But Jodie was the calm one of the family. Never raising her voice ever, it was strange to see her so furious. It scared her. It also made her feel bad about what happened in the kitchen. She hadnt handled that so well.
Benjamin was ashamed to admit that he had let a tear fall from his face. Another of father's doings. Having been raised that if he cried he wasnt a man, he was humilated to let Emmy and Axel see him crying. But as Lainie came into the kitchen screaming, he had to turn.
What did Nik do? Why was she screaming so loud? His poor Laih. All this time they had been going crazy and she has no idea what was going on. She must be so scared right now. He didnt know what to do to make it better. Ben just wished this would all get better. He didnt want to fight anymore. But he didnt get how they were going to fix this.
"Jenny. I dont know what has gotten into you, but this has to stop! I know you have missed Benji. We all have! But you cant just go around yelling in peoples face!" Jodie said angerly. She was so upset. Her brother comes back from the dead and her sister goes nuts. How can she not be upset?
"I think you should leave." she said quietly. She didnt think she could look at her anymore. She turned away from Jenny and shut her eyes, taking in a deep breath.
Jenny shot up from her seat as Jodie said she should leave. "Wow. Im not going to leave. Ben needs me!" she said. She couldnt just leave him high and dry like this. She would never abandon him.
"Yes Jenny. Its time for you to leave. Come back tomorrow when you have cooled off." Jodie said firmly. She looked her little sister in the eye and didnt break her gaze until Jenny looked away. She then saw a small nod escape the 20 year old. Watching as Jenny walk out the front door, she sighed and sat down on the couch.
Hearing his name being uttered, he turned. Axel. Listening to what he had to say, made him feel ten times worse. He could see the strong passion for Emmy in his sea green eyes. "You really love her, dont you mate?" he said so low only Axel could hear him.
