A glimpse of Drake as a dad - new teaser from INSIDE GAME!

The girls hang back, unsure of what to do. They exchange a look with each other before reluctantly shuffling toward their father, their eyes downcast. He tentatively puts his arms around them like he's trying to keep some distance between them, not wanting them to get too close. He's isolating himself from them because he doesn't want to hurt them, not realizing that choosing to continually withdraw from them is what's hurting them the most.

"Eva, I'd like you to meet Willa," Drake says, placing one hand on top of the older girl's head before ruffling the hair of the younger one, "and Coco."

They both stare at me with the same breathtaking blue-green eyes as Drake, but from the puzzled expression on their faces, I can tell they're not exactly sure how I fit into their father's life.

I don't know what their mother's told them, but I urged her not to say too much. Drake has a lot of catch-up work to do after years of having been basically an absentee dad. He's not going to be the type of father they need overnight. I just need their mother to help a ten-year-old and a six-year-old understand that.
