The next morning I cooked breakfast, giving Kelly the day off again. I hugged my dad tight when he came into the kitchen. Everything I’d learned about Weston’s father made me appreciate mine so much more.

I went to dress, hating that I had to take my dad to the airport already. When I was done, I found Weston and my dad sitting outside, the doors wide open, talking.

“You got the shit stick in the form of a father, but he’s the only one you got. Part of me wants to encourage you to talk to them, because they won’t be around forever, but the other part says screw them for what they did to you. I don’t get to see Wren as much as I’d like, but that doesn’t mean I don’t love her with all my heart.”

“She loves you too,” Weston said, giving my dad an honest smile.

Dad cleared his throat and nodded. “Yeah, I know. Wren’s a good girl.”

“One of the things I love about her.”

“Do you? Love her, that is.”

Weston paused, a small smile on his lips. “We’re getting there. I can tell you I feel more for her than I’ve ever felt for anyone else. I’m . . . afraid to say if it’s love or not yet. I can tell you it’s very strong, though.”

Dad nodded in understanding. “Gotta say, it’s kind of weird to have a son-in-law who’s only seven years younger than I am. Feels like we should be friends instead of some weird parent/child relationship.”

Weston chuckled. “We can have whatever kind of relationship you want, John.”

“Take good care of my little girl, Weston, please. Don’t make me come back down here to shoot you, and we’ll be just fine. Okay?”

“I’ll do my best not to get shot,” Weston replied with a snicker, slapping my dad’s shoulder.

“Ready?” I called from the doorway.

They turned toward me and stood.

“Well, Weston, it was nice meeting you,” my dad said, holding out his hand.

Weston smiled at him as they shook. “You too, John.”

Weston gave me a kiss goodbye, and then Dad and I headed out, back to the airport.

“Are you happy, Wren?” he asked as we entered the airport. Our drive had been talk about Weston and possibly going out to Chicago with him for a visit.

I smiled at him. “Dad, I’m married to a wonderful man, and while my marriage is unconventional and life is a bit interesting at the moment, I’m very happy.”

He smiled and pulled me close. “Good. That’s all I want, and remember I’m always here for you.” He leaned down and kissed the top of my head. “You’ll always be my little girl.”

“I know,” I replied with a smile. I hugged him tight, relishing in the warmth of my father.

He kissed my hair again and whispered, “Love you, Wren.”

“Love you too, Dad.”

As I stood in the airport and watched my dad disappear from sight, I realized how thankful I was for him, and all my family.
