“I’m surprised we stayed as long as we did.”

“Why?”

“Well… since you knew your daughter was waiting for you, I thought you would want to leave a lot sooner.”

We were in Aston’s truck, heading back to Nome. After I received that message, I was embarrassed that Chrissy knew, but after the initial shock wore off, I was pissed. Not at Chrissy, because she had nothing to do with it. I was pissed at Synthia. How dare she pop up on me after the way she left. Her ass could sit out there until time got better, as my mama would say. I had no clue exactly what that shit meant, but I could assume it meant a long ass time. “She left the last time she was here. She’d basically come over here to tell me I wasn’t shit. Why should I change my plans because she decided to show up… and without calling?”

He shrugged his shoulders as he lifted his eyebrows. “I guess you shouldn’t. That was fucked up on her part… the way she left. But maybe there’s something that caused her to think that. Or something that happened to her that made her angry that you gave her up for adoption.”

“Well, I’m not a mind reader. She’s gonna wait until I get home.”

Glancing at me, I could see the frown on his face. “We not going to your house now?”

“How am I gonna experience the swag we were talking about earlier if I go home?”

I could see his shock with just how petty I was, but whatever. It was my coping mechanism. I’d completely let my guard down, wanting to get to know Syn… my daughter. She gut-checked me that day. I wasn’t expecting that. I thought things might be awkward, knowing that she was gonna be asking questions, but I never expected her to drag me the way she did. Besides nursing, there was one thing I was good at, and Syn was about to experience it firsthand. She wasn’t going to ruin me and Aston’s first date. “She can’t be staying all night, Indi. I can fuck that sweet pussy when she leaves.”

“It’s eleven o’clock. You actually think she’s going to drive back tonight?”

“She’ll probably stay with Chrissy and Avery though. I think you should go home and at least see what she wants.”

I side-eyed him and said, “Fine. Take me home. If it’s more bullshit, you won’t get no pussy until I’m no longer pissed.”

“Indi—”

“Indi’s gone. I’m all business right now.”

He slowly shook his head as I crossed my legs. I was fuming now. She had better be on some apologizing, grown-woman energy. Because I wasn’t. I was on some petty, get-back shit, and I wouldn’t sugarcoat shit. I was tired of people thinking that they knew who the fuck I was and judging me for what they thought about me… just like his HIV infested mama. Good thing these are only thoughts.

When we turned in my driveway, she was still sitting there, and Chrissy was sitting next to her.
