Chapter 27

“All married women are not wives.” Japanese Proverb

“Come in,” Detria said. No smile. No real expression, and far from sounding like she was happy to see him.

Stiles felt her indifference toward him. Why was he here and why did Detria even call him in the first place if she was going to act all brand new. He reminded himself of the real reason he made the decision to come to his house; it was for his daughter, not Detria.

He looked at her round belly and fought against the anger brewing within. The anger management classes were designed to help him curb his anger. Right now he felt like he could explode at the thought that not only had his wife been sleeping with another man, but the child in her belly could belong to that punk. Think before you speak. Don’t say something you might end up regretting.

“Hi, where’s my baby girl?” Stiles asked, but didn’t take one step further into his own castle.

“Daddy,” Audrey appeared from out of nowhere and rushed into his outstretched arms.

“I said you could come in, Stiles.”

Stiles scooped up Audrey and held his baby girl in his arms as he walked inside the house. He noticed Brooke standing several feet away with a slight smile on her face.

“Hey, Brooke.”

“Hi, brother-in-law. It’s good to see you.”

“Yeah, good seeing you too.” He focused his attention back on Audrey. “How is daddy’s princess?” he asked the little girl, kissing her on her forehead. “Daddy missed you. You know that?”

Audrey bobbed her cute little head up and down, while holding Stiles tightly around his neck. Then, out of the blue, she kissed him on the side of his face.

Tears immediately formed in Stiles’ eyes but he willed them to stay back. He squeezed his little girl even tighter.

Detria forced herself to ignore the heart-wrenching scene of father and daughter playing before her eyes. “Are you going to stay here and visit or do you want to take her out for a while?” She glanced quickly over her shoulder at her sister.

Brooke looked like she was about to cry too, so she hurriedly turned around and walked away, forgetting to give Audrey’s backpack to Detria.

“Since it’s such a beautiful day, I think we’ll go to the park. Would you like that, Audrey? You want daddy to take you to the park and then we can go get some pizza and ice cream,” he said, lightly tickling her tummy until Audrey started giggling.

“Yaaay, I want to go to the park. I want pizza, Daddy.” She hugged him tight around his neck.

“Okay, let’s go then.” Stiles put her down.

“Let me go get her backpack,” Detria told him with her arms folded across her chest and resting on top of her belly. “Are you going to just stand there?” she asked him before turning and walking off.

“I’m cool. Thanks.”

“Come on, Audrey. Let’s go get your backpack so you can go with Daddy.” Detria reached out for her little girl’s hand and Audrey quickly obliged by running up to her mother and taking hold of her hand.
