So Now What???, chapter 2
*Recap*
"So where is my daughter?" Rebyl asked with wide questioning eyes.
*End of Recap*
"Um, Rebyl, about that..."
"What is that supposed to mean?" Her smile faded away slowly.
Nibs sighed before continuing.
"Rebyl, I'm sorry, we had to put Ava up for adoption 2 months ago.
"WHAT!" Rebyl screamed, absolutely furious.
"Rebyl, calm down-"
"Calm down? WHEN I GAVE AVA TO YOU WE MADE AN AGREEMENT THAT YOU WOULD LOVE HER! I DON'T CALL IT LOVE WHEN YOU PUT HER UP FOR ADOPTION!"
"Rebyl, I'm sorry, we just couldn't take care of her."
"Son of a bitch," Rebyl said under her breath. Well, we just completely ruined her day.
"I'm um, going home," she said.
"HEY TRE, I'M WALKING HOME!" Rebyl yelled to Trè. He nodded his head.
"I'll call you guys later," she muttered to us. She turned around and started to walk home. I made to run after her and Nibs pulled me back.
"You know Rebyl, she needs some time alone."
"Yeah, okay."
*Rebyl's POV*
Why did they do that to me? I was looking forward to seeing my daughter, and now I may never see her again. I looked down and saw a can and I started kicking it. Some people would give anything to be me. Billie Joe's daughter, rich and famous, but I would give anything to be them, kids with normal lives. I mean it's not that I don't love being my dad's daughter or playing onstage with the guys, it's that most kids my age don't have missing daughters and have been raped when they were 11-years-old.
Ask my dad how excited I was to see Ava. I finally told him and that was part of the reason I was so hyper. I got to my front lawn and typed in the keypad and stuff and finally was able to open the door. I slammed it open and saw my dad sitting on the couch watching TV. I ran and jumped on top of him. I sat on him lap and dug my head into his shoulder. I let the tears fall, slowly turning into small sobs, getting louder and louder each time. My dad was rubbing my back making "shhh" noises. After I stopped crying I looked up at my dad.
"They put her up for adoption," I said.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry Rebyl," he said. I stood up and walked up to my room for a nap. I fell asleep and drifted into dreamland.
*Billie's POV*
I have to find Ava because Rebyl's a mess. I got my laptop out from the case and started looking up adoption agencies in Ohio. Adie walked in a few minutes later from getting groceries.
"Babe, what's up?" she asked.
"You know Rebyl's daughter?"
"Yeah, is she here?"
"No, Rebyl's friend put her up for adoption."
"Oh god!"
"I know. I'm looking for her now."
"Good luck, I'll look on the other computer," she said. After about 2 hours of searching I finally found an adoption agency. I went into the toddler section. I clicked on girls and went down the list until I saw
"Ava Grace Armstrong," I almost screamed. I ran into the refurnished basement (a little accident happened with the cat while I was on tour) to see Adie searching.
"I found her!"
"Oh my, did you really?"
"Yeah, here's her picture." I showed Adie the picture of Ava.
"She looks just like Rebyl," like Adie would say anything if she looked like that Rodger guy.
"If Rebyl asks I had an urgent meeting in Maine for Adeline. I'm going to go get my granddaughter." I ran upstairs and hastily threw clothes into my suitcase. I grabbed my suitcase and gave Adie a kiss before walking out to my BMW. I got in and played so Ramones. I started singing along the Blitzkrieg Bop. I pulled into the airport.
"Hello sir, how may I help you?"
"I need tickets to Columbus, Ohio," I said quickly.
"Of course, you have 3 hours to get on your flight."
"Thanks."
*3 hours later*
I boarded the plane and had a whole row to myself. The plane took off and I slowly fell asleep. An hour later I woke up to screams and a shaking plane. I looked around and saw flight attendants in their seats and pure chaos. I looked out the window to see the ground hurtling towards us. I'm going to die, that's just it, and I am going to die.
*Adrienne's POV*
Rebyl hasn't left her room all day. I decided to just leave her alone. Jakob and Joey were spending the night at friends' houses so I turned on the TV, bored. I flipped the channels until I heard something that caught my attention.
"Flight J23 to Columbus, Ohio has just crashed in a large field in Western Indiana. So far there are 13 deaths, 35 injuries, 3 missing, and 1 person who is completely fine. More at 11:00." That's the flight Billie was on. Oh my god!
"REBYL GET DOWN HERE!" I heard her run down the stairs.
"Yeah?" she said with red, puffy, and tired eyes.
"Your dad was on a flight to Columbus because he found your daughter. There was just a plane crash and um, it was the flight your dad was on." I just decided to get straight to the point. She started crying harder than I have ever seen her cry.
"Why did he do that? He didn't have to." She fell over, crying so hard she couldn't breathe. I fell over in the same state as her. Seconds later the news started again.
"The death toll of the J23 flight mystery has now reached 15, as 2 of the missing ones were found dead."
Minutes later the phone rang. Rebyl walked over and answered it.
"H-h-h-hell-o?" she said, crying
"Rebyl, what's wrong?" Mike asked on the other line.
"Turn it on channel 10 Mike, and call everyone else and tell them to do the same," she said and hung up on him.
"So where is my daughter?" Rebyl asked with wide questioning eyes.
