Chapter 61: Chapter 61
: Telling Justin
Robin touched his poor heart which felt like it would just pop out after discovering so much about his family. He staggered as he let Bree go and drop to the ground.
"Dad!" Chris called out rushing to him he had been by the door and had heard all the drama which left him both spooked and horrified as well as angry all at the same time.
He rushed to his fathers side holding him up as Robin took large breaths still touching his heart.
"I'm okay son," he said patting Chris hands which were still holding him up. Then he looked back at Bree who was sitting on the floor with the document in her hand still wondering if this was but a bad dream which she would wake up out of anytime.
But her heart knew the truth and as she saw the proof before her it ripped her into two, angry at herself for doing that to her own son, how would he ever forgive her now? She wasn't fit to be a mother.
Tears rushed up her hot blotches face, as she poured out her emotions.
"I don't care if you didn't want to be with your family sixteen years ago," Robin spoke up,"But this is my family now and you messed it up. For a moment stop thinking about your selfish self and worry about how your actions will affect others. Didn't you not see how it affected Justin but still you kept on!" He said touching his heart again.
"Dad please, you have a weak heart," Chris eased.
"And I'll probably die from it, " he replied angrily, "Justin is the sweetest boy I've ever met. He was wonderful now look at what you turned him too! My boy is done, he is broken, do you get that Bree? You broke him!" Robin shouted as Bree cried out loud rocking her self.
Robin staggered to his iPad that was beside his computer and switched it on,
"This is what you turned him into!" He said throwing the iPad to her. It landed in her lap.
The headline from Justin's meltdown and anger issues were trending across the internet.
"You better go and tell your son the truth, that boy deserves to know, even if it leaves whatever half of him that's still intact broken and if he tells you to leave, you better leave! You are never ever comming near my family again!" He screamed.
Bree looked up at him with swollen eyes, "Robin please, I didn't know, "
"You're sorry? Well I don't want it, all I want is for you to get your sorry ass upstairs to your son and tell him the truth, because you're not leaving until you do!"
Bree shook her head slowly wondering what the hell she would say to him, she couldn't talk to him after all she had done to him.
"I said go!" Robin screeched, "lord help me Bree I will drag you all the way there if I have to!" He shouted.
She stood up fast as she saw him walking to her aggressively. She ran out the door with the documents in her hand.
Robin paused and Chris run to him before he could lose his balance.
"Dad please sit down," he said leading him to a chair. Robin sat down panting heavily as he got the whiskey bottle
Chris grabbed it away from him, "no dad, " he said, opting for water and handing it over to him in a cup.
Robin took it and took a long sip from it, looking up at Chris and Chris stared into his eyes. He could see through his soul cracked and red.
Tears passed down Robin cheek as he shook his head, "this is all my fault, when Justin needed me I was busy, I'm like my father."
"Your nothing like him," Chris eased.
"My father may not have ever been there for me, but I'm worse. At least he wasn't around but I was, and even so I couldn't stop it, "
"Dad, don't blame yourself, "
Robin shook his head as he looked at Chris, "we saw him, we saw him crack little by little till he broke, and did nothing. I know Justin's story, it's as hard as mine, if not worse, I promised to take care of you boys, where was I?" He asked, not able to remember.
Chris sat beside Robin, "you were right here dad, without you Justin wouldn't have anyone to turn to, you have always been a father to him, and to me, and we love you for that.
You can't blame yourself because I'm to blame too. I am his brother, I should have been the first person he came to, I know his insecurities I should have guessed, but I was also to busy with my own life I forgot to have his back, so if you want to drink you cannot drink alone," he said pouring them each a glass of whiskey he gave one glass to his father.
*****
Bree held the documents in her hand as she paused in the hallway. Not really staring at anything she propped her back against the wall.
She remembered her family sixteen years ago, her two little sons and Quick, her husband. He had always tried to make her happy but she wanted something more.
She remembered the look on Chads face when she left without saying goodbye. She had booked a cab and as she left saw Chads little face poking out from the window crying.
She slid down to the floor, now her poor innocent baby was in jail. She had always planned to go back for them but with every year passing she knew it would be hard for them to accept her back and the fear of being rejected was too much for her.
Robin was right, she had to tell Justin the truth. He was her son, her youngest baby. She remembered she used to sing him to sleep and he would hold on tightly to her begging her to stay till he fell asleep.
Justin was her son, her son. Her heart raced as licked her dry lips. She looked down the hall and walked slowly and calmly toward Justin's room.
The documents still in her hand, shaking rapidly. She pushed open the door slowly and swallowed hard as she could see Justin by the balcony next to the girl that she had bumped in a few minutes ago when she first came in.
Justin could sense her presence the minute she walked in but didn't turn back to see who it was, he was afraid of what he might do to her.
Clair looked back, "it's your mother," she said as his fingers curled tightly, forming a fist. Clair touched his hand telling him to relax.
"Justin I need to talk to you," Bree said bravely, "alone."
"We have nothing to say to each other, I just want you to leave," Justin replied still looking outside over the balcony gritting his teeth.
"Please Justin, just give me a moment, " she tried again.
"I do not want to talk to you, and I do not want your filthy apologies," Justin responded raising his voice.
"Please, just let me talk to you!" Bree shouted out.
Justin was about to burst, how dare she raise her voice at him! Where did she get the right in this scenario? But Clair eased him as she saw his veins popping out, "just talk to her, face your problems," Clair whispered, "for me," she added.
Justin breathed out and with it the hot anger, he clenched his fists
"Say what you want, but Clair stays, she can listen to whatever you have to say."
"I need to talk to you alone."
"You either say it or leave!" Justin shouted out.
Bree breathed out, "have you ever visited Chad," she asked softly.
Justin paused and so did Clair surprised and shocked.
Bree shook her head, tears filling her eyes "have you ever visited your brother, your real brother or is he alone there in jail?" She asked again.
Justin turned around and faced her, "it's not your business," he said gritting his teeth.
"I'm sorry, " she pleaded.
Justin looked away and looked back at the balcony wondering why the hell Chris or Robin would tell Bree about his brother.
"I'm sorry for leaving the both of you sixteen years ago, I'm sorry for never comming back, oh god, I'm so sorry for letting you suffer, now my baby is in jail and my other son is broken because of me!" She said falling to the floor on her knees, crying and shaking rapidly.
Justin paused for a second as all this sunk in, he turned around, his heart pounding wildly, he looked directly at her
"What did you say?" He asked.
He shook his head and smiled, "I get it Bree, you just want me to suffer, don't play with me like that Bree," he said turning away.
"I'm so sorry, I should never have left your father, I should have never left you and Chad, believe me I regret it everyday and I regret it more now! I'm so sorry!"
Justin's smiled faded as he stormed over to her, grabbing her harshly, pulling her up to her feet her up to her feet and shook her wildly and powerfully, "what are you saying? What the hell are you saying?! " he was panting and shaking her furiously.
"I'm your real mother, I'm your mother Justin!" She said crying.
He immediately dropped her and backed away
He shook his head unconvinced, "your lying, your lying to me. I know you want to hurt me, just stop lying!"
"I'm not lying, you are my son," she said shaking her head as she stayed on the floor.
"What do you want? What do want from me? Stop lying to me, stop hurting me!" Justin yelled at her.
Clair watched all this in horror as she saw the document lying on the floor.
Bree crawled over to Justin as Clair held up the document and read.
"Justin, she isn't lying," Clair said as she looked up to him. Justin turned and faced Clair, his eyes red as hot coals.
He looked at her in horror as she held up the document. Bree touched his leg begging him to forgive her, he pushed her in one big show of power and she fell back.
"Don't you ever touch me!!!" He screamed at her.
But she only pounced back on him still begging and crying,"I'm your mother, I'm sorry, I'm your mother, baby please forgive me, I'm your mother," she kept repeating.
He pulled her away so she hit the floor face first.
"YOU ARE NOT MY MOTHER AND YOU WILL NEVER BE!!" He roared.
His heart was breaking and his head was spinning it was too much way too soon.
He walked over to her and grabbed her shaking her ferociously her again as all the anger was unleashed inside him.
She slipped, hitting the bed post and begun to bleed, but she didn't care she threw herself back on him still begging, he pushed her harder as he or all the anger fill him up..
Chris rushed in as he heard the fuss with Robin.
Blood was allover the place and Clair was trying desperately to stop Justin but he kept pushing her away like a savage focusing on Bree.
Chris pulled him back
"Let me go!" Justin screamed out to Chris as Robin took his other hand holding him back.
Justin was desperately trying to reach Bree.
"I 'm so sorry," she said still crying with her bloody nose.
"You better get out of my sight!!" Justin roared at her, desperately trying to break free from his fathers and brothers grasps, "Justin stop it," they were telling him.
He was as angry as trapped lion mistakenly set free, and the only thing that would fill him up was getting his hands on Bree.
He felt like he could strangle her right there and then for everything single hurt she had caused them.
Bree could see the anger in her sons eyes, anger meant exclusively for her, like a serial killers hatred. It broke her, but she was willing to go through it all for him.
"Baby, I didn't know, I swear I didn't know you were my son, I would never have-" She shook her head as she trailed if still crying , "Forgive me, please forgive me."
Justin was breathing in and out like an outraged bull as Chris still tried to hold him back.
"You don't deserve my forgiveness, how dare you ask for it!!" He spar rapidly fighting his father and brother to get to Bree who sat down crying an rocking herself.
"I could never forgive you! You don't know half of what we had to go through when you left!!" Justin yelled as a tear rolled down his blotched cheek, "Dad couldn't control himself anymore, he lost it because if you, drinking every night, we used to sleep hungry, and because Chad was the oldest he would lay his anger on him. Do you know what happens to a child who grows up without a mother!!!" He trailed at her.
"Because of you, my dad remarried a witch, who shattered my brother, Chad was never meant to become what he is if you only had stayed!!!! I raped a girl because of the monster you created!!" He screamed at he.
"I'm sorry," Bree replied slowly still shaking.
"Stop staying that! I swear if I hear you apologize again you will regret it!! Sorry won't fix it! Sorry won't fix me!!! " he shouted breathing out heavily.
"You left a good family sixteen years ago for this? You only care bout your happiness! We didn't deserve that! Even if you weren't happy with dad, Chad I didn't deserve to suffer. I didn't ask to be born? I didn't ask for you to be my mother! I sure as hell would never have if I had a choice!!"
"Don't say that, baby, what can I do? What should I do for your forgiveness?" She asked, her eyes soaked up in tears.
"What can you do? You can go back in time and erase all you did, you can go to the grave ask my father for forgiveness, he died of a broken heart! You can turn back time and stop me from raping a girl, you can go back and stop yourself from leaving. This isn't a freaking movie Bree! You can't erase what you've done. There is no quest to redeem yourself, you've already hurt us, you've already broken the only pieces we had to rebuild ourselves, " as Justin said this, tears where rolling down cheek, "you can't change the fact that you slept with your own son repeatedly, not Even caring when I begged you to stop! You don't know half of what I've been through, and you don't know half of what your putting me through. You want to do something? You can run.."
Bree looked up at her son,
"That's right, run Bree, as far as you can, and make sure I will never find you, and I never see you again, because when I do, I will kill you myself , and I will not stop nor will I regret, because to me I don't have a mother, and I was never your son, so run and don't look back !" He yelled as he looked at her anger stricken.
No one had ever heard Justin talk like that, the sweet kind boy they used to know was dead.
Bree was petrified at these words as she saw the fire in her sons eyes, his wounds cut deep inside him. Clair pushed her gently away, "I think you should go Bree, as fast as you can," she advised for she too knew when a person reaches the bottom of the bottomless pit, there is no way back.
Bree looked at her son for the last time still trying to get to her as Robin and Chris held him back. She stood up and walked away.
"I don't want to see you again!!! Run! Oh god I will kill you, I will find you and I will not rest, I will kill you you hear me!!!'" Justin called out after her kneeling on the ground still be held down by Robin and Chris as he flushed out his anger and pain.
After a good thirty minutes Chris and Robin let Justin go. Justin looked at them in anger as they tried to soothe him. He didn't say a word just took his car keys and walked out the door. They were afraid to stop him as they saw the dreaded look in his eyes, they had feared the most.
Justin don't come back home that night or the next...
