Tatum tried to talk to me when I got back to her house, but I wasn’t ready to talk. I climbed into a scalding hot shower and tried to wash the entire night and morning off of me.

She didn’t press me when I told her I wanted to fly home. She called Benton and let me take their company jet back to Graves. When I saw my dad at the airport, I ran to him instantly, throwing my arms around him as tears began to fall.

“I missed you, Daddy.”

“I missed you, too, LP. Come on, let’s go home,” he says with his arm around my shoulders. My dad has been my hero my whole life. Maybe he’s all the home I need.

After we get home, we decide on pizza for dinner. I change into my favorite sweats and join my dad in the living room. I hand him a beer that I grabbed on my way and sit next to him, curling my legs under me. Now, I wish Bear were here.

“You look like you need this more than me,” he says, referencing the beer. “You alright, baby girl?”

I smile at him calling me that. It was what my momma called me, but he doesn’t usually. “Jesse and I had a fight.”

“Lord knows the two of you have fought before. Everything will be alright.”

“I don’t know. This time was different.”

“Because the two of you were finally honest with how you feel about each other?” he asks, shocking me. My surprised reaction makes him chuckle. “You two think you fool everyone, but I think you only fool each other.” He shakes his head, taking a drink from the can in his hand.

“Everything was good. Great even. Then I got a phone call and he only half heard it, and made assumptions. Then, a girl showed up claiming to be his girlfriend. We said some things. I don’t know. It felt more final this time, Dad.”

“You two are meant for each other. I think Tilly and I have known that since the beginning. You’re still young. You both have time to work it out.”

“I hope so,” I sigh.

Dad and I eat and watch a movie. He even had popcorn and M&M’s ready for us to snack on, and even though it was the thing I did with Jesse, it was nice to share it with my dad.

I don’t know when I’ll talk to Jesse again, or if I ever will, for that matter. But I hope that we can both move on and learn to forgive each other before it destroys us more than it already has.

When I go to bed that night, I reach for the box that holds the most important things in my life. My mom’s letters. I look through them until I find the one I think I need. Hope is written on the envelope.
