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.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOqoLmYNbu

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.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSt2uJIsQZH

“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.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqFl4LtNfU
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgGfukl1bH
“Your mom must’ve had her reasons.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZDoVk2KlM
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3AVCLIuzj
“For telling her?”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSyGpCfjwX
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUzLzSBTxp
“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.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbEBZTnQIo

“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.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZo2hc0d6st
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NmhezqEb6
“I came because I don't want you to say or do something you’ll regret.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJ4wvOe684
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrZ0kJZXN3
“Not for the support?”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1alCFZ1Ez
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYKQaRJvmK
“That too as well. Will she look anything like you mom?”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoM3X0nTym
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBOjPQvO1K
“I don’t know. It’s gonna be really weird if she does.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45cTb27B0M

“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.”
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikxLuWF2pa
“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.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoamA5AZPk
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxO2zUaPFS1
“Oh not yet I guess I'm gonna be here long term then.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80uOBfOFRf
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSo0V3RlDw
“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.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08W3OvmhXh
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpL6mLvSEHb
“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?”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVET9PvLYTK
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRsRHBsK7o
“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.”

“I just don’t get why you let it go on for so long.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRYrQonyFZ

“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. 260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCGD1TOp5b
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRdoIlAv0O

“I was in a bad place and needed help. I had no one else and it was my last resort.”
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2NV2JPSXW
“And bringing up the fact that I wasn't my mom was necessary?”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe1vUncWQk
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5w6AihbCqL
“...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.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWiERHJrDQ

“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.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZU1UScUF8
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1NPG5YEHO
“Thank you…”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAEG9LXHHa

She looked over to Cleo smiling her way, “Your dad said you were engaged. Are you the lucky lady?”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUemyUkTVe7
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONrm0S4sZb
“Yes, I’m Cleo. Nice to meet you.”

“Yes I am.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBC1sGR9krC

“Then your father will keep me up to date. Not to cut this short but I have a checkup meeting scheduled for today.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOcqB4ICKE
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPh6U3oECb
Dad was the first to stand and everyone else stood after, “I’ll meet you by car.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yRQeeGH0T

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.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZx7wlz4YyV
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoS5p0X0KY0
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.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NESI1SQQU
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjF9dCwR697
She said her goodbyes to me and Cleo this time and walked away, “Thank you for not cutting off her head.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GYnNZ3ejX
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDc3EtynZy
“Shut up old man and hug me.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcdChmZgWt
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJI670mbeiE
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.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx41qVp89YW
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.”260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolqpV4GteO
