Dad’s jaw clenched. “You’re not, but it’s okay to be heartbroken, kid. Your mum and I weren’t blind when it came to you placin’ your feelin’s in their palms. They’re fools for not seein’ the way you felt.”
I scowled, but I was still leaking and swiping the tears away. “They aren’t fools. They’re the best people ever. Don’t be a dick, Dad.”
He snorted and cupped the back of my head to drag me against him again. “Okay, kid. I’ll try not to be.”
“Thank you,” I cried, gripping his tee under his cut.
One day it wouldn’t hurt as much, but for now, I’d allow the pain to take me under. They really did mean so much to me.
I love them.
CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE
THE THREE STOOGES GROUP CHAT
Rommy:
Just landed. You guys are probably asleep. It’s raining here, which matches my mood. I miss the Diamond MC compound already.
Quake:
Eve just drifted off, but I’ve been gaming. Good to see you made it back safely. The compound misses you too.
Rommy:
Hey, Quake. What are you playing? We’ll have to get online and play together some time.
Quake:
I’m down for that. Just let me know when you’re free. Time differences will be shit, though. Currently playing Call of Duty. Well, I was. Might hit the sack now.
Rommy:
Cool cool. I’ll talk to you soon. Hugs to you both!!!!
Quake:
You too, Rommy.
Eve:
I’m bored.
Rommy:
Wish I was there to help. I’m just about to start work.
Eve:
How is it being back now?
Rommy:
Busy. I’m booked up every day.
Eve:
I’ll let you get started then.
