Chapter 21
Daddy Issues

Chapter Description: A mother wants to stop her husband to live their family.

Bob was about to open his car’s door when his wife, Josie, appeared at the front door. “What do you think you are doing?” He stopped. “Um… going to get some milk.” “Don’t lie to me, bastard!” She snapped her fingers and Bob shrank down to a two year old in a shirt, a cap and diaper. “What?”

Josie stepped up. “You were such a bad father to Jade! Always being absent on her birthdays and never having a true bond with her.” He was scared. “But I was wowking.” He said with his childish, lispy voice. “Oh, don’t make me laugh. I knew you were meeting some ‘friends’.” She showed air quotes.

His eyes got bigger. “How did you know?” “Oh, actually, some of those girls and guys you were meeting were old friends of mine. So they gave me that information.” She said and continued. “We barely saw each other anymore! That even made Jade’s dream to be a big sister difficult.” She picked him up.

Bob was bawling and trying to free himself from her arms. “Wet me go!” He used the beer bottle that was now a spray bottle to hit her, but she held his chubby fists. “Look, my father gave the same excuse to me and my brother when he left us. That made our mother start teaching us witchcraft in any case like that. Now, you’ll be able to fill any empty holes you gave to our daughter. So you’ll have a real bond and be her baby brother, forever!” She said closing the front door and he dared to ask. “Baby bwodah as in youngew sibwing, wight?” She smiled. “No, now prepare to have yourself your first diaper change in your new baby life.” He wet his diaper after hearing that, but seeing that his former seven year old daughter came to see the commotion and smiling, made him start crying his heart off.
