Gunner

As usual, Gus’s gut was right. He knew from the start that August was his daughter. He just needed to confirm his suspicions with Samantha. I hated that August had to find out the way she did, but I was glad the truth was finally out. I knew it would take some time, but August was strong. I had no doubt that she’d find a way to get through this, and I would be there to make sure that she did. As she sobbed against my chest, I didn’t speak. I just held her, gave her the time she needed to collect herself, and after several moments, she looked up at me and said, “I can’t believe my mother never told me.”

“I’m sure she had her reasons.”

“Oh, yeah, she definitely had her reasons.”

August walked over to my bed, and after she sat down, she told me her mother’s reason for walking away from Gus. It was hard for me to hear. I could only imagine how hard it was for August, and it had to be utter torture for Gus. Finding out that she’d given up her own happiness to protect him and his brothers must’ve been tough, but at least now he knew the reasons behind her leaving all those years ago. I could hear the anguish in August’s voice as she said, “I can’t believe she sent me to see him without even telling me.”

“Maybe she was hoping you would figure it out on your own.”

“Yeah. She mentioned something like that when she was talking to Gus, but honestly … who does that? She sent me here without any clue who Gus was. She didn’t even tell me that they were involved, just that they were old friends and she knew he’d help me. The whole thing is crazy.”

“You know what they say, ‘you can’t judge someone until you’ve walked in their shoes.’” I sat down next to her. “It’s clear your mother loves you, August. It couldn’t have been easy for her to send you here. She had to know there was a chance the truth would come out. Maybe that’s what she wanted. Maybe she just wasn’t strong enough to say the actual words. If it was me, I would’ve built it up much bigger in my head than it really was. I would’ve assumed the very worst, and for her, that would mean not only losing Gus, but losing you too.”

Wiping the tears from her cheeks, she whispered, “She wouldn’t have lost me.”

“No, but she didn’t know that … at least, not for sure.”

“So, what am I supposed to do now?” She sighed. “Do I just forgive her and try to move on?”

“Only you can answer that, August.” I took her hand in mine as I said, “You’ve been through so much. You’re still going through it. Just give yourself some time to figure it all out. Samantha will still be here when you do.”

“How did you get to be so smart?”

“Hmm, I don’t know.” I chuckled.
