I groan at the sun, most likely giving me an unwanted tan. I glared in a direction not caring who was on the other side since I could even see. I stopped taping my heel against the ground when Cleo’s hand snaked up my thigh. I turned to her fiddling with the cute flowery sundress she had on, wishing to just jump past the little fence and run back to the apartment, “I really don’t want to meet her.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3akzQEin5n

I sigh, going to take a swig of the wine I ordered only for it to be snatched by Cleo, “So you’ve said. And no drinking.”

She winced most likely off my strong taste and gathered my hand in hers, “Because I said so love. You can do it after having a level headed mind throughout this whole thing.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5Z3xfIm4M

“Fine, you're right. I don’t know why dad is so adamant about this. Even after the fact of blackmailing and holding a secret like that.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdndvbm21sY
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9iBpu5tDD
“Your mom must’ve had her reasons.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijdp0ZdFHp
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡED8PYqBGnc
“For telling her?”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTAVrtboYx
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZkYclQgc1
“Yes. And since your father wasn’t there she must've been there as her support. Just think, babe, she lost her own child. She must’ve wanted someone to know at that moment.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflmmRgby9F
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIrzRrO8kN
“Maybe yea,” I smiled, fiddling with her engagement ring. When I looked at her again she was already watching and she laughed when I pulled her by her collar to place a kiss on my lips, “I’m glad your here.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8Ojj0ac1y
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43d0Iv1iRS
“I came because I don't want you to say or do something you’ll regret.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDQVS9orTR
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QnZZw93xN
“Not for the support?”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMc9OXoH0Y
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJffDWRwVHq
“That too as well. Will she look anything like you mom?”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgo67rK8BTX
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHSnDcn8SH
“I don’t know. It’s gonna be really weird if she does.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahy2CAFHX4
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJM5hWjO40B
“You’ll be just fine. And if not we can just leave,” She looked away and smiled brightly when getting up and I followed suit, “Now put on your lovely fake smile and be nice.”
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMgvW8ByrL
“I’m always nice,” I gasped when her palm connected with my butt grimacing in trying to laugh it off as my dad came up to us.

“Cleo! Nice to see you again. I hoped that this one didn’t run you off already,” He was beaming, looking unfazed at the situation at hand. He somehow looked even better than when I last saw him. They hugged each other and I crossed my arms unwilling to just act happy.211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxPdRjGeKA
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrbAy3FQG7
“Oh not yet I guess I'm gonna be here long term then.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXjm0iSpsE
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxy08smlW9E
“And really thank you for keeping me up to date. Other than when we speak on the phone I never know what's going on with her.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWvHFthDFk
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TE3LRizra
“It’s no problem. Just be glad your likable, otherwise I would've kept to myself. By the way, where is this woman of the hour?”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eYa5ZADMr
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmimM6wutK
“Popped into the restroom. But I'm keeping an eye out in case she's trying to escape. I even had to convince her when she came that you wouldn’t kill her.”
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtmV7FkpDv
“I just don’t get why you let it go on for so long.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRcr5Quyva

“Well it is my company. I just have someone being the face and acting the part. I phrased it wrong, sorry but that's the income earned that I gave her. I gave them a couple of ideas that worked and they I could use the extra money anyways. However, she needed it more than me.”
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAMsv7srNg
A woman skin and bones came up to the table. I was taken aback as she looked starved and almost dead yet still alive and kicking, “Hello…,” Cleo and dad went quiet as I stared at my… aunt? She looked like a shell of what she could have been. 211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVEaKWVuKH
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFk46wfhgA
“I don’t feel comfortable with calling you aunt yet.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4DAVoap7Y

“Why’d you take advantage of him?”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EHpNzhVFj
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWPfLK5l5C
“I was in a bad place and needed help. I had no one else and it was my last resort.”
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsiuwlr3pi
“And bringing up the fact that I wasn't my mom was necessary?”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3LLjfZArA
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhvAJoDAGz
“...Your father was mad at me. I only left your mom after a fight we had. And I never got to reconcile with her. He had every right to reject me and i made the stupid decision to hurt him. And for that I am sorry to both of you. Talia wanted me to take this to my grave.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkz3o5nrNPR
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Gj1KRYcjt
“You have gotten better, yes?”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHoMuUgLJk
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXMwxecvYx
“I’m going through rehab. I’m a month clean with many years to come. And might I say your just like her. She was such a strong willed person and you obviously inherited that factor.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWqB7v0cEH
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQgJMgLwzs
“Thank you…”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzm9Ya5XTCl
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1imxQc0nTB
She looked over to Cleo smiling her way, “Your dad said you were engaged. Are you the lucky lady?”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3rB9jKnNY
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDofqb6U6U
“Yes, I’m Cleo. Nice to meet you.”
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiXTXW9k8B
“You as well. I’m glad I got to meet you as he hasn’t stopped boasting about you.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfeC7sQ8Zi
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhdy6RwlHG
“Well I do have a very nice reputation. Will you attend? I would like for all of Faye’s family to be there.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gKHTNNy5A
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnLLoOfTuA
“...If Faye is fine with it…”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nbdf3eNYJ
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLPmohcsHb
“Yes I am.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTxByePmpv
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAhPkTlGFQ
“Then your father will keep me up to date. Not to cut this short but I have a checkup meeting scheduled for today.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIquaUcKTeG
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LPFPBiXI8
Dad was the first to stand and everyone else stood after, “I’ll meet you by car.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgb0Qh9Rrv
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAgnAVFWge
She nodded and came over to me to take a hold of my hand, “Hopefully I'll see more of you and really I'm sorry about this whole thing.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0ZWt15CnG
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wE5rY6l2R
Using the better half of me I pulled her into a hug albeit a short one in response, “I know that now. Have a great meeting.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJi5igXPSvZ
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsTN1WtPnA
She said her goodbyes to me and Cleo this time and walked away, “Thank you for not cutting off her head.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTvIesywsp
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6iuMJxGvu
“Shut up old man and hug me.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgJFunVjnS
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqRzfwDvD5
His laugh loud and boasted came in between Cleo and I to pull us into a group hug, “Love you and you too Cleo. I gotta go before someone calls me and hopefully you two will meet soon,” I double took him after that last sentence and he literally rushed away knowing I'd have something to say.
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZASPDBSx7q
Cleo was laughing at my expression and I bumped my hips with hers and had to grab her arm so she wouldn’t fully fall over after, “One issue at a time okay.”211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OTTgVGSG7

“A nice movie night in? Let me order before we leave so you don’t starve. And get me something sweet. I don’t even know how you handle that stuff.”
