Part 5: Tears
Do you guys want Hisako from Killer Instinct to be included in this?
Lori
After I finished my conversation with Clyde, I promptly sat myself down on the sofa. This entire situation was a disaster and the worst part...we had no one to blame except ourselves. If we never did what we did:
Our friends and family wouldn't avoid us like the plague and our entire family would still be together. Speaking of which, Lincoln's and Lily's goodbye party is happening right this second yet none of us plan to stop by. We also didn't visit Lincoln because we were too ashamed of ourselves.
We messed big time and the guilt will never leave us for the rest of our lives. I remember the days where I selfishly tried to use Lincoln to further my goals and even tried to use Clyde's love for me to make Bobby jealous. I wish that I can take those days back and try to stop these events from happening. However, this is just a pipe dream. I can never get those days back so it's better for everyone if our siblings have a true life even if it means that we're no longer apart of it.
Lynn Sr.
I was sitting in my cell with my head in my hands wondering where I went wrong. I always prodded myself on always being there for my children and never allowing them to be unhappy. Yet it seems like I failed on that promise. I constantly spoiled my daughters to the point that they have free reign on the household. I also never punished them for what they did wrong and always went with what they said.
A major mistake. I punished my son for no reason and hardly spent any time with him. We never had a great connection which I regret greatly. I had hoped that I can repair this mistake, but it seems like this incident destroyed any chances of that happening. I kicked my own son out of our household and threw away his furniture. No wonder my mother called me a disappointment. She tried to tell me about the ins and outs of being a good parent, but I was more interested on earning my father's love. How fitting that the same thing happened to my son and myself.
Sighing...I wonder if I'll ever get a chance to see Lincoln again. Since my mother lived on a remote island somewhere and was only able to visit a couple of times every year. I don't think she will visit me anymore...not after I showed her how immature I acted when my actions finally caught up with me. I couldn't stop the tears from flowing from my eyes as I remember the look that she gave me. The disappointment and anger that I rightly deserved which only shows how badly I messed up.
From this moment on, I vowed to become a better father and seek Lincoln's forgiveness. I knew that the journey will be tough, but I will do anything to see my son one last time and apologize for everything.
Carol
I was at the party wondering how Lori and her siblings could be so cruel to their brother. I knew that Lincoln wasn't perfect, but he makes up for that by admitting his mistakes. Unlike the other Louds who ran amok in the town. I could remember the numerous incidents that have been caused by Luan, Lola and Lynn.
The incidents where someone almost died due to their their actions and how each person cried and moaned as they were getting treated. One time, Luan even splattered a man with blue berry pie which he was highly allergic too. If his wife didn't drive him to the hospital then he would've died. Shaking my head, I wondered how their parents kept making excuses for them all. They clearly had some behavior issues and would often result to violence to get what they wanted. I knew that if something wasn't done then most of them would end up in jail at some point.
I was so caught up in my thoughts that I accidently bumped into Bobby Santiago, Lori's ex boyfriend. He loved her extremely much and would do anything that she asked without batting an eye. I always raised a couple eyebrows at that since it felt like Lori was bossing him around during their entire relationship.
"Are you okay Bobby?" I asked.
"I'm okay, Carol. Just wanted to spend sometime with Lincoln before he moves away." Bobby said.
"I'm sure he's around here somewhere. Besides Lincoln deserves to get away from this place after what his family did." I said.
"I know, but it's completely unbelievable to think that Lori, her siblings and Mr. and Mrs. Loud did that to Lincoln." Bobby said.
"Unfortunately, this was bound to happen sooner or later due to the numerous incidents that have been rushed into the hospital." I said.
"What? What incidents?" Bobby asked.
"Pranks gone wrong, getting beaten up, getting shoved and tossed way too hard. And those are just the tip of the iceberg. It doesn't help that Mr. and Mrs. Loud keeps making excuses for each of them and kept them all from ending in juvie or jail." I said.
"I guess that makes sense seeing how overboard Luan, Lola and Lynn gets when it evolves something that they want, just wanting to give themselves a good laugh and when they're playing sports." Bobby said.
"Not to mention trying to free the animals from the petting zoo and almost causing heart attacks from randomly popping up everywhere." I said since my father always told me about the latest Loud incidents that happen in or around the town.
"They were really out of control were they?" Bobby said.
"Yes, but this incident should be a wakeup call for all of them." I stated.
"Hopefully. If not then who's to say what will happen in a couple of years." Bobby said.
"Who knows. The most important thing right now is saying goodbye to Lincoln and Lily and wishing them well." I said.
"You're right, but before I continue searching for Lincoln...Can I have your number?" Bobby asked while scratching his head with his left hand. I gave him his number and slowly walked away. This was the start of a new beginning for everyone and from that day forward...
Everything changed for everyone for better or worse.
Hope you enjoyed the chapter...Bye :)
