Before I can respond, two huge men appear out of nowhere, grabbing my father by the arms. He struggles, but they hold him firmly. What the actual frick is going on here? My heart is beating hard and my palms are clammy. Did Jayden organize the bodyguards? I can't say I'm sorry now.

"Get your hands off me!" he snarls, his eyes never leaving mine. "I just want to talk to my daughter!" Jayden looks at me, shock written all over his face. "Winona, who is this?" I swallow hard, my voice barely above a whisper. "My father." Jayden's eyes widened. "I thought... you said both your parents were dead." inviting Trouble to Stay +25 BONUS "Wishful thinking."

As the men drag my father toward the gate, something catches my eye. In his beat-up car parked at the curb, I see two messy, crying kids in the back seat. My heart aches at the sight. They look scared and hungry, just like I did when I was their age.

"Wait," I call out, my voice shaking. "Let him go." The security detail looks at Jayden, who nods reluctantly. They release my father, and he glares at them before turning back toand walking closer again.

"I need money, Winona," he says, his tone more insidious now. "Looks like you've done well for yourself. I see you all over the television. I'm sure you can spare some." But still, how did he know where we were here in Santa Monica? No one knew the city let alone the address.

I can feel the anger boiling inside me. "Demanding money? What a surprise." He flashes a charming smile that doesn't reach his eyes. "I've changed. I'm a different man now." "Bullshit." I know he'll never change.

I glance at the car again, seeing the kids crying and dirty. My heart breaks for them.

Jayden steps forward. "You need to leave, Now." My father's smile falters, and he turns to me, his eyes hard, "Winona, you don't want to make an enemy out of me." The threat hangs in the air, heavy and dangerous. "You are dead to me. Nothing you say or do can affectanymore." "I'm sorry for everything. I could've done better." I know better than to trust him. He's a con man, a charmer, and a dangerous one.

I take a deep breath, trying to keep my voice steady. "Take better care of those kids." He raises his hands in mock surrender. "Of course. I'll do better. But I need smoney to get by till my new job starts." Jayden looks at me, and I nod. He pulls out his wallet, he always carries scash.

"This is the only time." "Of course."

I walk over to the car. The kids look up atwith wide, frightened eyes. The boy is a young teenager and the girl I'd say is around twelve. "Hey there," I say softly. "It's gonna be okay." They nod, but the fear doesn't leave their eyes. I turn back to my father. "You need to leave now." He takes the wad of cash from Jayden.

As he begins to drive away, I feel a mix of relief and sadness. My mind is screaming atto not let those kids go with him. It brings back so many awful memories. witing Trouble to
