“It means to go for it. Be proactive. Don’t wait for her to eventually come to you. That might’ve been possible a few years—hell, even a few months ago—but she’s more emotionally stable now, thanks to a certain fucker that shall not be named and, therefore, she probably doesn’t feel the need for a mother like she did before.”

“Fuck you, Kingsley.”
“Better revise your will, because I’ll bite your dick off.” I flip him the middle finger and walk out, resisting the urge to run as if my ass is on fire.

“You clearly missed me, judging by how you added three whole days to your trip.”
I glare at Nate who’s sitting in my living room, legs wide apart, position relaxed, and making himself entirely at home.
He’s even wearing casual pants, a button-down, an...
