Baxter:\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd Father, you were not there to hear everything, but you were there to see the outcome of what we both did. They made me apologize for throwing the drink on her, but they did not make her apologize for slapping me. Do you think those people were fair? That incident proved how unfair they were. They purposely ignored what Madeline was doing just so she could help them with their sick children.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kaylee sat beside my father, reached for his hand, and gently tapped the back of it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFather, I would never have caused trouble because I knew how much it meant to you to convince her and have your name tied to it. But Madeline made it really hard for me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her voice cracked again. She pulled her hand back and buried her face in her hands.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cEveryone, just stop,\u201d Penny cut in. \u201cAs if you two do not know that Madeline can be petty. And when she has power, she makes everyone feel small. She has done that over and over again. If you are forgetting, let me remind you how she did not even respond to the emails at first when we asked for her help while she was in the human community.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She snapped at us while taking Kaylee\u2019s side, and my father and I looked at each other before looking back at Kaylee, who was still sniffling.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cRemember how Madeline only reacted after she made us meet her demands and write a list of what she would be getting from us? All those demands about us not being able to tell her anything and her being in charge of her own life, even while she was in our community and refusing to follow our rules. I am just saying that it proves something. Kaylee has never done anything like that. She has always been humble, sweet, and has always listened to everyone.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Penny pointed that out, and my father let out a deep sigh and looked guilty.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I was not really sure. I knew why Madeline did not want to come here in the beginning.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was avoiding me and the others from finding out about her children, and she remembered how badly we had treated her in the past. 2\u00a0<\/p>\n
She refused to come here without setting healthy boundaries.\u00a0<\/p>\n
To be honest, I admired her for that. She was not an idiot who would walk back into the same community without taking precautions for herself. But I stayed silent because everyone was emotional at that moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI am not accusing you. I am just saying you should have bitten your tongue for a while because of what happened. But do not worry. Do you think that is the end of it? It was just one hiccup. Once she finds the cure for the sickness and clears everything, we will grab her by the hair and drag her out of the pack ourselves. That is my promise to you.\u201d 3\u00a0<\/p>\n
My father spoke to Kaylee and placed his hand on her head in a blessing. She finally stopped crying and lowered her hands from her face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou promise me it will be soon?\u201d she asked, looking at all of us.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Penny and my father nodded firmly. I was not sure. I was angry, yes, but Kaylee had also made <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
