Every call that I declined.
I knew I was being unfair to him.
Treating him like this.
But didn’t he do the same thing to me?
But could I really fault him entirely?
Sure, he’s never done this.
But at the same time, I’ve never had to experience even a molecule of what he does while he’s working.
Ugh, this was so frustrating.
Here I was in the car with another man and Tank occupied my every thought.
Seeing the clubhouse, I smiled.
To which Oliver commented, “Take it you're happy?”
“Yeah, haven’t seen my dad in a few days. I miss him.” That was half the truth, I just used my dad. Raine Lowman, you fool.
“Didn’t know you were a daddy’s girl,” and the way he said it, he was so condescending it wasn’t even funny.
Which caused my spine to straighten, “When he’s the only parent I’ve had since I was eight, yeah, I am.”
He didn’t even nod as he parked the car to the side of the building where I directed him to park, “Where’s your mom?”
I shrugged my shoulders, “Don’t know. Don’t care.”
He scoffed and then… and then… in a chiding tone, he said, “You shouldn’t be like that about your mom you know. She did bring you into this world.”
“Yeah, and if you knew my situation, then you would understand. But you don’t.” I snapped.
I was never texting or calling anyone when I had alcohol in my system.
Never. Again.
He wouldn’t even be coming if Lena hadn’t opened her mouth the other day in front of him, but I knew why she did it.
All because of that twinkle in her eye.
She knew who would be here.
The heifer.
Without another word to him, I climbed out of the car and was pulling my phone out to text Lena when she beat me to it.
“You’re here.” Lena smiled as she bounded over to me.
“I know. The traffic was crazy. They were doing construction on forty. Again.” I said. We were about fifteen minutes later than I wanted to be.
She shook her head, “My word. That highway, I avoid it at all costs.”
Since Oliver and Lena had already met, I didn’t bother to introduce them.
We were rounding the corner to the back of the clubhouse where everything was taking place when I spotted someone, she was finally here.
