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.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0q0LR4d92

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.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rwWQyiYiu

“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.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8qjrca5QR
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPA5NcGVif
“Your mom must’ve had her reasons.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahB7c6wo18
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2eFnCcLo6
“For telling her?”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWvIaFxl1U
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgp8W7JXrh
“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.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfONaTXcUL7
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY32v13TVNq
“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.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQiSditeO0
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcB3RbdwLE3
“I came because I don't want you to say or do something you’ll regret.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTs2EpNZvV
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sGgnDUw2e
“Not for the support?”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGZFJqIuqv
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbku0yZ2fNA
“That too as well. Will she look anything like you mom?”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVThGwkL2q
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKl4jNTzUsy
“I don’t know. It’s gonna be really weird if she does.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrG6LLBUKvY
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡro7uNcIlRx
“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.”
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszJ7gMQ8Ip
“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.186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH10jhkZdSg
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85rwReEQbA
“Oh not yet I guess I'm gonna be here long term then.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK91bA6KA8A
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonR4nI041B
“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.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmghg6VPY0
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLxZrYRZsa
“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?”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWP8Rx4tYSr
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOIHUHJHYu
“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.”
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyvRkdQ5IP
“I just don’t get why you let it go on for so long.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyynrtxSht

“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.”

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. 186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWa4CIgFzw
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJv8adtwfNa
“I don’t feel comfortable with calling you aunt yet.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWFonbxiZJ

“Why’d you take advantage of him?”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0vcHmtyiG
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6YcncZRgt
“I was in a bad place and needed help. I had no one else and it was my last resort.”
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUuHSo8olQ
“And bringing up the fact that I wasn't my mom was necessary?”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgowS1IaLME
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOitRg1aGOA
“...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.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSS2lMkDNsX
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ddXHqWIet
“You have gotten better, yes?”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTlVW5RDUf
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbBaDc2EfI
“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.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrkoItjMIX
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TJwDzuf9I
“Thank you…”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoEYBq7PT1
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uPjOMrIoN
She looked over to Cleo smiling her way, “Your dad said you were engaged. Are you the lucky lady?”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PFaaconrQ
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NytDjSLC0
“Yes, I’m Cleo. Nice to meet you.”
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4Kz6gAqxJ
“You as well. I’m glad I got to meet you as he hasn’t stopped boasting about you.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5tEG6A5bT
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65n75xgput
“Well I do have a very nice reputation. Will you attend? I would like for all of Faye’s family to be there.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDScBPvlTe
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwe9UqoFjZ
“...If Faye is fine with it…”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjAu0erG9t
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq20s3nBT2S
“Yes I am.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7VmnVIKSt
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRi67FNsb6n
“Then your father will keep me up to date. Not to cut this short but I have a checkup meeting scheduled for today.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhV3UsEoUB
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADR9SWmR9g
Dad was the first to stand and everyone else stood after, “I’ll meet you by car.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpx68Nd1F4
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkRXjBuSiV
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.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXu22Dg7sYY
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nIGpS6Uqh
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.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIP9oGd9kL
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSUZNs8R80
She said her goodbyes to me and Cleo this time and walked away, “Thank you for not cutting off her head.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVPUzhyRBa
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4H6jn4lG0
“Shut up old man and hug me.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhym1hDLMsP
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzQj1nB2jj
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.
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DWH7dDnim
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.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyqzKhQikB
186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6VkaaDUhQ
“Yea yea i’m getting a bottle then we're going home and i'm little spoon this time.”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwYdHSlYYv

“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.”
