Chapter 20: Logan
Pulling up in front of grandma's house there was another car there. I didn't know that she has another dinner guest. This makes me uneasy and I don't have the slightest reason to feel uneasy.
It's almost like Amber can sense it though, her back is rigid. She's tense; she's noticed the car as well but doesn't mention it out loud. I'm glad that she doesn't.
The last thing I want is for Dustin to feel alarmed about anything. As far as we know there's nothing wrong.
Stepping out of the car I plaster a smile on my face, and then I get Dustin out and take his toys, as he rushes to grandma's door.
Amber gets out of the car slowly and watches as Grace opens the door for him, as if she's been watching out the window this whole time. There is a smile on her face, but not the kind that we are used to be being greeted with.
Amber doesn't flinch but I can see that she's noticing the way that Grandma is looking at us. An anxious look and I know something is not quite right.
"Hello, Grace." Amber gives her the best smile she can manage though I can see it is forced. We can all sense a tension in the air.
“Hello dear, how was the day?” Grace asked, giving her a welcoming hug. Hanging on a little tighter than usual.
Hearing a familiar voice in the kitchen I almost refuse to walk in. If it wasn't for Dustin I would have walked right back out of my grandma's house.
I gently push by Amber and Grandma. Not the slightest bit happy to hear the voice, as soon as I enter the kitchen.
Jessica is sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of tea in front of her. I know that grandma has only done this because she doesn't want to be rude. Which makes me wonder just how long Jessica has been here?
Grandma and Amber enter the kitchen and there's no escaping introductions.
"Jessica this is Amber, Amber this is Jessica," I say, letting it be known that I'm not happy about what's going on.
“Hello.” Jessica nods her head, barely giving Amber a second look.
Amber says nothing.
“I was hoping that we'd be able to go for a walk, you know to talk.” Jessica looks at me as if she hasn't done enough damage already.
"Fine," I grunt, shaking my head. I don't want to make a scene in front of Amber.
I turn and both women behind me can see that I'm pissed off. My face red, my eyes I'm sure look like hot coals.
"Grandma, can you watch Dustin?" I put my hands on my hips.
Giving her a look that I don't really want to take him with us, nor do I really want to talk to her. I avoid looking at Amber.
"I think that we can take him with us," Jessica suggests and there's a hint of a smile in her voice.
“You have no right to have an opinion at the moment.
