*takes several deep breaths and lets them out slowly before she trusts herself to speak again*
*(and just try to refute her preteen logic)* It's your fault my dad doesn't love my mom enough. If he didn't love you, he'd marry her and we'd be a real family. *sees you about to protest something or other and cuts you off* I may be a kid but I'm not stupid. I can see the way he looks at you. It's the same way my mom looks at him. So why don't you just tell him you don't love him so he can stop thinking about you?
