I frowned. “… A calling?”
Crossing over the stone border, I approached the stone slowly. Lowering myself, I looked around it. Spotting the edge of what looked like an envelope, picking it up, I straightened. Opening it, I frowned at the black card inside. Shoving it back in, I quickly left the glen.
Somethings, even to me, were better left ignored, especially when I was having so much fun, with my new toy.
How could a ‘calling’ occur now?
Cursing my fate, I decided to ignore it for now.
I would read it all later.
Hearing my phone ring, I answered without checking.
“Hello?”
“Good job,”Connor’s voice mocked me. “Come over, and…this isn’t me asking.”
He hung up without another word. I looked down at my phone and felt amusement. He had invited me over, but he hadn’t told me to come alone. He’d threatened me with toys, and surely, he wouldn’t hate it if I brought a little friend with me.
Calling my mom, I lifted my phone to my ear. “Hey, Mom, didn’t Georgia need a baby sitter? Yeah, well, I’ve changed my mind; I can watch him tonight. Heck, he can stay the night so she can enjoy some alone time with Francis.”
Hanging up, I made my way to my car parked close to the older farm house. I’d never seen Connor around children, and for a man intent on spreading his seed worldwide, it would be interesting to see him deal with it.
“What. Is. This?”
He looked at my littler nephew, Artis, in shock. His eyes going from the two-year-old in my arms to me. His brow creasing in confusion. “Why is he here?”
I shrugged, entering his apartment invite. “He’s my cousin’s son, I was supposed to baby sit tonight, but since you demanded my presence, I figured you would be okay helping.”
He followed me as I sat Artis’ things on the sofa. “Help? Help doing what?”
“Well, watching him, of course,” I said. Turning to face him, I brushed a hand across his jaw. “I mean, as such a strong sperm donor, shouldn’t you be good with children?” Tapping his loose jaw, I headed to the kitchen. “I’m going to use your kitchen to make something to eat. Okay.”
Just as I entered the kitchen, I heard, “What the fuck?”
Followed by Artis’ crying and another curse from Connor.
I smiled.
