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.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeDUgT3Ey2

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.”

“We're only a short walk from the apartment so why not.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0sYjHKLnx

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.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxXUQ6ykkm
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sX1v8vJFd
“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.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCg8JjlxcWQ
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfU5u3DUnv
“Your mom must’ve had her reasons.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmwwYtwH1N
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFOzYkczkH
“For telling her?”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKyQWmvxIT
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFpluiv0jw
“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.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTWge99Xxz
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXnJmG2gOV
“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.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LCfid5z40
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiYRAu3xgD
“I came because I don't want you to say or do something you’ll regret.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdNE1OW67a
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3ItFSXm9F
“Not for the support?”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhJTOyy2Jm
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vLOhm6omn
“That too as well. Will she look anything like you mom?”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaDaHx46FK
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OCEbCQSLk
“I don’t know. It’s gonna be really weird if she does.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRWwfHnQhL
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrBdQZvXGY
“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.”
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfKTOb7wmP
“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.263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5vj8wYpWJ
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQpojeJazD
“Oh not yet I guess I'm gonna be here long term then.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GRCLLboBu
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3LNKCXrIb
“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.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93R46xt1Qa
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PfzQHIUlq
“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?”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWb1aH9uTPp
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdDsnqtB61
“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.”
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZ3qTw5BY9
“I just don’t get why you let it go on for so long.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohZ63wae36
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9nQk3OeCx
“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.”
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxTQWgv2j9
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. 263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxEfs6emRd
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmUiXdF0Tk
“I don’t feel comfortable with calling you aunt yet.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLtgySJ8tL

“Why’d you take advantage of him?”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxTA03H7Ay
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCur4so0N1W
“I was in a bad place and needed help. I had no one else and it was my last resort.”
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwimWXXkOL
“And bringing up the fact that I wasn't my mom was necessary?”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduF2Ld3Aon
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnAMJwNBjI
“...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.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzREDX4t4p3
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrfMcqdtrI
“You have gotten better, yes?”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRAAenEMls
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7yuhIE4Ii
“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.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSB0pEPZWc8
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TFBT4GPGw
“Thank you…”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4JeS5ebj3
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwgjcnVetJ
She looked over to Cleo smiling her way, “Your dad said you were engaged. Are you the lucky lady?”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFivDogGxPu
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJ0BDmbjND
“Yes, I’m Cleo. Nice to meet you.”
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yDiXdmprS
“You as well. I’m glad I got to meet you as he hasn’t stopped boasting about you.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lblmWBWL4
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOH9J4EaVtl
“Well I do have a very nice reputation. Will you attend? I would like for all of Faye’s family to be there.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJ264V0jFl
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCGBJDojMU
“...If Faye is fine with it…”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrL61HNkaP
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlV33Y47SMM
“Yes I am.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXd1ZHV8vpj
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpbVM36Rrm
“Then your father will keep me up to date. Not to cut this short but I have a checkup meeting scheduled for today.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0I727n8gHJ
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuezNPyen5P
Dad was the first to stand and everyone else stood after, “I’ll meet you by car.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvxDQlj5Xx
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbkxZQZ2XD
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.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvjnt0ZguB
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJX5ivmSW7
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.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PjacSOAKO
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PRvlfvURQ
She said her goodbyes to me and Cleo this time and walked away, “Thank you for not cutting off her head.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZjNMgsxVI
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqDYWNFh1J
“Shut up old man and hug me.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxe61aq1ge
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacAt3LrwSF
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.
263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsreBxeVF4
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.”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0FAYLKqTz
