Chapter 21 - Disciplining His Daughter
\'It seemed that mom already left. Where\'s dad?\'
Iesa looked around.
\'The house was not locked so it\'s either they forgot to lock it when they left or dad is still here.\'
Peeking at her parents\' room, she saw that her father was sleeping on the bed.
\'It reeks of alcohol.\' she frowned.
Slowly, she closed the door.
\'Good, once he wakes up, I\'ve already done everything in the house. I just have to lock my door and go to sleep. I\'ll just make an excuse that I\'m focusing on my studies and forgot to unlock the door.\'
Meanwhile, Teren dropped on his bed after changing to his casual clothes.
\'Did her mom already leave?\'
He couldn\'t help but think. But after remembering how they didn\'t speak a word to each other that day, Teren sighed.
"I\'ll go make dinner first." he stood up.
The sky got dimmer and welcomed dusk. Only the moon and stars were shining above.
Iesa finally finished everything.
\'I cleaned, I took a bath, I cooked for dinner, I took out the garbage, and I already ate. I just have to rest in my room.\'
Just as she entered her room-
Click* she locked the door and was relieved when she heard another door from the outside open.
\'Hm? It\'s all clean. Did Iesa already come home? She must be worried for me. After my wife left, I got drunk.\'
Hearing this thought, Iesa frowned and gritted her teeth.
\'But where is she...\'
"Urgh..."
Iesa then heard a groan.
\'Fuck, a hangover in the night. How am I going to sleep later? Are there any medicines here.\'
"Iesa..." he then called, "Iesa! Do you know where the medicines for headaches are?!"
Iesa breathed deeply.
\'Should I reply? It\'s still too early in the night. It\'s very strange for me to sleep.\'
Clenching her face, she opened the door and asked.
"The medicines for headaches?"
Her father looked at her and laughed.
"Yes, dear. I got a mild hangover."
"Umm... they\'re just at the counter beside the refrigerator." Iesa said while just peeking through the door.
"Hm? I don\'t know where it is. Can you get it for me?"
Her father looked around but was not searching, as if wanting her to get out of her room.
Iesa gulped before coming out, "... okay."
\'Don\'t worry, I\'m wearing something that hides a lot of skin and doesn\'t show my curves. It\'s going to be fine. It\'s not like he will do something on the first day.\'
After reasoning within her head, she went towards the counter where her father was "looking"
As soon as she searched for the medicine, her father looked at her body.
"Iesa, why are you wearing such clothing? It\'s so hot out here."
While Iesa was searching for the medicine, she then felt her father slap her behind.
\'...\' she froze. The slap was slow and seemingly groped her for a second.
Meanwhile, her father just laughed as if he didn\'t do anything.
"I... I found it. Here." she then placed the medicine down and turned around and quickly entered her door.
When she closed the door, her face paled.
\'Disgusting, disgusting, disgusting...\'
While she trembled behind the door, her father frowned and thought.
\'Did I do too much? It shouldn\'t be, right? That was just casual. Furthermore, that was the first time I did it. Is she being suspicious of me? Why?\'
Iesa tried to cover her ears but she can still hear it.
\'Oh no, I was too hasty!\'
Out of fear, she reached out for the door and locked it.
Click*
\'Huh? Did she just lock the door to her room?\'
Iesa heard this again and quivered.
Soon, there was a knock.
"Iesa? Is there something wrong?"
The handle moved but the door was locked.
"Why is the door locked?"
Iesa gritted her teeth and answered.
"Um, I\'m just trying to focus on my studies."
"What? Then why did you lock the door? Iesa, open this right now."
\'He\'s... he\'s still drunk..!\' Iesa\'s fear heightened.
Soon after, the knock became banging and the call became shouting.
"Iesa!? Now that your mother is away, are you trying to disrespect me!?"
Iesa covered her ears as she cried. Although her father\'s voice was muffled, his thoughts are not.
\'I\'m going to punish her for not letting her father come in! Does she think she can do this to me!?\'
Her face clenched as it was drenched in her tears.
At that moment, she saw her phone on the table.
On the other side of the door, her father had enough.
"You think you will not eventually go out of there!? Let\'s see if you can last forever in that room! I will be seeing the window if you\'re going to come out or not!"
There was a pause. Even though the father said that, he didn\'t leave.
"Hmph! I know that there are keys to your room. Once I find it, you\'re in deep trouble! I didn\'t know how much undisciplined you are!"
But before he turned around, the door opened.
Immediately, he pushed it open.
"Ah..." Iesa dropped onto the ground.
"What do you think you\'re doing!?" her father stood up in front of you.
"I... I\'m sorry..." Iesa cried.
However, her father didn\'t falter. He squinted his eyes and said.
"You act like a kid. Are you throwing a tantrum because your mother just left!? Huh? Is that it?"
"N-no..." Iesa weakly sobbed. But when she noticed her father took off his belt, she was petrified.
"Hmph! I didn\'t know you still act like a kid. You still need some spanking! Turn around so I\'ll smack you!"
Her father raised the belt against her.
However, Iesa just shook her head and trembled, "N-no..."
"Turn around or I\'ll smack your face!"
Seeing that Iesa was not listening to him, the father went to her and tried to remove her long pants.
"No!"
"You still deny me!? Undisciplined child, turn around!"
Iesa struggled and retreated back to her bed. She was wheezing from fright as her clothes have become a mess. However, she still defended herself even though her father was trying to remove her pants.
"Stop!"
"You!" her father became more forceful until both of them heard.
"Okay, that\'s enough evidence."
Hearing that this voice did not come from either of them, they looked at the window. There, a young man came out of hiding with a phone in his hand.
His black eyes were unwavering. He looked down at the father with no emotions.
Iesa saw him and cried even more.
"T-Teren...."
