[Turning You] On! Chapter 25

“I love you,” I told her.

“What?” She asked.

“I love you” I repeated.

“Do you really?” she asked. Did she really have to question it?

“Yea, why wouldn’t I?”

“Just asking,”

“You not going to say it back?” I asked her. She looked into my eyes giving me the answer.

“You don’t feel the same?”

“Terry it’s not that---“

“Never mind” I said cutting her off.

“Terry don’t be mad.”

“I’m not,” I told her and it was the truth. I wasn’t mad, more like disappointed and upset. She sighed.

“You want your soup?”

“I’ll eat it later,”

“Terry you need to eat.” She told me.

“I know that.”

“Then come sit down and eat with me.” I walked over and sat down on the couch. She handed me the hot soup and a spoon along with some crackers.

“So what’s wrong with your Dad?”

“What do you mean?” I asked her.

“He seemed angry.”

“He has no reason to be.”

“What happened?” She asked.

“How do you know something happened?” I asked her.

“I know you Terry.” I sighed.

“He’s fucking my mom.” I told her.

“No,” she gasped.

“Yes,”

“Are you sure?”

“I caught them heading there when I got home.”

“That’s why you were upset too?”

“Yea I don’t get it B. I mean she left him for another man. How could he forgive her so easily and end up sleeping with her?”
