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.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQ1Ctt8IU6

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.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjLaj7lb5u

“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.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSfyouuxS7

“Your mom must’ve had her reasons.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9PMLixG8R
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWsBFOMOex
“For telling her?”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPAcNhDQTe
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o4EuXR2Po
“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.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0PB9HNxxc

“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.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtcUGWVpw1
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyqogNEqty
“I came because I don't want you to say or do something you’ll regret.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusnF89Fo2N
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDS1fwTzOx
“Not for the support?”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodyRO02zQ6
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInNh9QWd3u
“That too as well. Will she look anything like you mom?”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9wqGj6IyH
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8i3n56kevn
“I don’t know. It’s gonna be really weird if she does.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXnrlsDYX1
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxL4gcfMw8p
“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.”

“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.226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCvHBKmjf8
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGE41DDUZAJ
“Oh not yet I guess I'm gonna be here long term then.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6ratGUW0g
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXevRugnNiu
“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.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhhaBTyAOD
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNfJggAJFn
“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?”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscF8ndBbVO
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqIgNz6idx
“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.”
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGl2cZuniw
“I just don’t get why you let it go on for so long.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ThziC0nyA

“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. 226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBZEgXM3k7
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHumYAhhfU
“I don’t feel comfortable with calling you aunt yet.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cm8p4toSP

“I was in a bad place and needed help. I had no one else and it was my last resort.”
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcldfG00JlZ
“And bringing up the fact that I wasn't my mom was necessary?”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtohggqod0
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FZjI0c2BR
“...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.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHWNyZHeON

“You have gotten better, yes?”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeSsFkxKZa

“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.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IcOFAFEgG
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuOsatg4N4
“Thank you…”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡburrLA4KQ6
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7TQBR3I5L
She looked over to Cleo smiling her way, “Your dad said you were engaged. Are you the lucky lady?”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvNMOkfk9n
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYdinmwZCq
“Yes, I’m Cleo. Nice to meet you.”
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2C5SW557O
“You as well. I’m glad I got to meet you as he hasn’t stopped boasting about you.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1cN9K3lxZ

“Well I do have a very nice reputation. Will you attend? I would like for all of Faye’s family to be there.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1t9fnyPYr
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKS6b37aTq
“...If Faye is fine with it…”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z441DEHg4
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLz8Xnlmpb8
“Yes I am.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiVXULWAkJ
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcdGFsToqp
“Then your father will keep me up to date. Not to cut this short but I have a checkup meeting scheduled for today.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKx8VDSPWE
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPW9TxfC5I
Dad was the first to stand and everyone else stood after, “I’ll meet you by car.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVxn5s2JV2
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tkNQNGvgu
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.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3x6yukVqq
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwOdAcmKg3
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.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ki9mFOfpS
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhgwqENJA7
She said her goodbyes to me and Cleo this time and walked away, “Thank you for not cutting off her head.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5t2LOlWq8B
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiiMOMj6rn
“Shut up old man and hug me.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvC8psPPTp
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAzSLiFLno
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.
226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMZKHHlO6c
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.”226Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8AyneHKg7
