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.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJS6EMi9ao

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.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CkBgwYUbS

“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.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxMTzKtTf7
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDi2YfLOnp
“Your mom must’ve had her reasons.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9w0pa2Rpq2
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvMGynMN25
“For telling her?”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiUqhX60Q0
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBYcphYdLH
“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.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtX2sQGVU8p
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytlrrFz85X
“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.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj07dj5QU9R
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhgHaIG9Ec
“I came because I don't want you to say or do something you’ll regret.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBPXk9MYtb
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpw6NYuIgv
“Not for the support?”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWjzU8pX4K
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWk42lp1qnn
“That too as well. Will she look anything like you mom?”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8XGUuGKwS
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yYLGwEMV2
“I don’t know. It’s gonna be really weird if she does.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9xadGjtlI

“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.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3yA1GaJSN
“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.209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6Rl6BeNg4
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWywtLtzoYB
“Oh not yet I guess I'm gonna be here long term then.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8i7lJFlOJ
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhjftkujg1
“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.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWzqJmQcBe
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvLoeQqY1Z
“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?”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWDIPZLrcT
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrya9dKDUa
“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.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXE1yrpXVDN
“I just don’t get why you let it go on for so long.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CIvF55VX0

“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. 209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6aInw3NEm
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwn31NWpVM1
“I don’t feel comfortable with calling you aunt yet.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIxR1RVuQ5

“I was in a bad place and needed help. I had no one else and it was my last resort.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1FNWvdhOl
“And bringing up the fact that I wasn't my mom was necessary?”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD47d6zAhtn
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxP5cEBq8ya
“...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.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rV5FmcGs6

“You have gotten better, yes?”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OmDAc4uIm

“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.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAGH9DWamn
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7naMHh2diZ
“Thank you…”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzbgkvhkck
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VEcqhpBNF
She looked over to Cleo smiling her way, “Your dad said you were engaged. Are you the lucky lady?”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ptCU35Xla
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWrB0CDKF3
“Yes, I’m Cleo. Nice to meet you.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3jzmjrK2s
“You as well. I’m glad I got to meet you as he hasn’t stopped boasting about you.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrAS7nxz2P

“Well I do have a very nice reputation. Will you attend? I would like for all of Faye’s family to be there.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZE5NmDVWlq
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKdqLmOFdn
“...If Faye is fine with it…”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwx5fyZNwbA
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXymxkyvXm
“Yes I am.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJtp5ytxAv
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIjzq3OBQP
“Then your father will keep me up to date. Not to cut this short but I have a checkup meeting scheduled for today.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYx7NYes62
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZF72UpPye
Dad was the first to stand and everyone else stood after, “I’ll meet you by car.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLY5YmhCdAt

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.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIlBVzLUMx
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UHmTTHhh8
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.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7K6r25bUs
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTZhS70AmB
She said her goodbyes to me and Cleo this time and walked away, “Thank you for not cutting off her head.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3VfBTBCTJ
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡin0FGLh7HK
“Shut up old man and hug me.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHprexKvR4V
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7mm7hhrtk
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.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfMghtIain
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.”209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsWY6wcR39
