Chapter 305
I shook my head. "I told them to sort their shit out and that I wasn't getting involved".
"Good girl. Do you want to go out for dinner?".
I shook my head. "I can't be bothered anymore". I also wasn't in the mood for going out now. A yawn escaped my mouth. "But if you want to go out, we can".
"I'm going to run you a bath and order Chinese food. We can find a film and settle on the couch. Sound good?".
I nodded.
Fat chance I would be able to stay awake, but I'd at least try. I couldn't get over how tired I was. I had no energy for anything. I prayed my full pregnancy wouldn't be like this.
Jake ran me a bath while I lay on our bed scrolling through Facebook. Nothing interesting, nothing exciting until I received a private message from my dad.
He wanted to know if I was up for grabbing coffee tomorrow.
That I could do. I was ready. Our first meeting may have not been how I planned for it to go but it happened. This time around I could think about what I wanted to say. In all honesty I just wanted a relationship with him. I had family out there that I didn't know.
All this time it wasn't just me and my gran.
I was staring at the message when another came through.
'If you're not ready I completely understand. I will wait until you are'
I was ready now. I messaged him back letting him know I could meet around lunch time. I picked the Starbucks in the mall.
"Baths ready".
"I'm meeting my dad for coffee tomorrow". I spoke.
"What?".
"He messaged me on Facebook so I'm meeting him at Starbucks around lunchtime".
"Do you want me to come?". He asked.
I shook my head. "This is something I can do on my own". It was something I had to do on my own. I had to do this my way and as much as I love Jake and his support, I didn't want him there.
"I can drop you off and hang around until you're done".
"I appreciate the offer, but I can drive myself".
"I don't want you going alone. Not in your condition".
I rolled my eyes. Was he serious? I was pregnant I wasn't dying.
"Don't roll your eyes Leah. You're carrying my pup in there. I have to keep the both of you safe".
I chewed the inside of my cheek as I let out a deep breath. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on . Visit to read the complete chapters for free. "I'm going to meet my dad for coffee tomorrow and I'm doing it alone. You may not like the idea of it but it's something I have to do. Now are we going to argue about it or are you going to let me take my bath?".
I could tell he wanted to argue, his top lip pulled back into a snarl. He was holding back, and he was holding back because I was pregnant. The last thing I wanted was to fight about it.
"I'll drop you off and pick you up. Final offer".
I made a face. Final offer? What?
"You think I was overprotective before. You haven't seen nothing yet babe".Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Was he really wanting to fight with me about this? It was a simple drive to the mall and back.
