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.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYIId3Eu5J

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.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfY0BkbD6g

“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.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuKaClx05y
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUSlTlgnBP
“Your mom must’ve had her reasons.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nE54LCYRY
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LAbgL6FCY
“For telling her?”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiZQA80y9F
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7s2uQnmZUE
“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.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvntJfDDMkS

“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.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdRkGpRo9I
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9YVKkFm5L
“I came because I don't want you to say or do something you’ll regret.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRbesXofzj
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXKKqRyTx7
“Not for the support?”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ7P5WYJHc
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBhcYyHDc9
“That too as well. Will she look anything like you mom?”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpAh95XMTp
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wolyuxido
“I don’t know. It’s gonna be really weird if she does.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5er8H9Z6d

“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.”
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRcz2rtwPN
“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.290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSGvpjhjkD
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepKBGtEG9e
“Oh not yet I guess I'm gonna be here long term then.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKUFoJQFyl
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmO9HLoIs3
“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.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OYiVg1QIE
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6UhMc0b4H
“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?”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2YvCfeBBT
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qfyh5PjlU
“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.”
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgXyScmlC3
“I just don’t get why you let it go on for so long.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOapBhTKZH

“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. 290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBtsQNpJfi
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhm0BQoJ2cz
“I don’t feel comfortable with calling you aunt yet.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqz1n9eE3M

“I was in a bad place and needed help. I had no one else and it was my last resort.”
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4gOsZe6FT
“And bringing up the fact that I wasn't my mom was necessary?”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxG31dyyEkc
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJPJSKTQea
“...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.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DyfPglW83

“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.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryycCquJ6z
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhThOeIDyo
“Thank you…”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwHTLRldi0

She looked over to Cleo smiling her way, “Your dad said you were engaged. Are you the lucky lady?”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yfvuouC7a
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiHNizvKHp
“Yes, I’m Cleo. Nice to meet you.”
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iCpiF0w3k
“You as well. I’m glad I got to meet you as he hasn’t stopped boasting about you.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveKjUe64G1

“Well I do have a very nice reputation. Will you attend? I would like for all of Faye’s family to be there.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PcEJoZwj3
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOc61YMsaG0
“...If Faye is fine with it…”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEanHZxuQo
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyZTyovVe7
“Yes I am.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOrWWjkYFW
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJThmDxVoG
“Then your father will keep me up to date. Not to cut this short but I have a checkup meeting scheduled for today.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqA2hM5QPjp
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhHUUbrT1z
Dad was the first to stand and everyone else stood after, “I’ll meet you by car.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHUeh85IkM
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkp5whwIv7K
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.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPTD7S5Z3M
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4rjlHLxSL
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.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdelH6tdXq
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod9nAzFKB0
She said her goodbyes to me and Cleo this time and walked away, “Thank you for not cutting off her head.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcb32EFc6V
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2ZAcF2XPE
“Shut up old man and hug me.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡio8NK36PXJ
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qSxEbLoY4
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.
290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrq271v2HB3
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.”290Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5Cmy3hA95
