Chapter 25
There was a fairly large part of my mind that kept asking the same question: What the fuck am I doing here?
I kindly kept reminding that part of my mind that I was doing this for my dad. One of his last dying wishes was to see his son with a girl. For once, before he dies, I want to appease him.
This doesn’t mean Evan and I are over, I kept saying to myself. This girl means next to nothing to me.
So here I was, picking up the Anderson’s daughter—who apparently had a name, Alex—for a date.
It’s just one date, I told myself for the thousandth time. One stupid date.
My breath caught in my throat as I watched her make her way towards me. She was pretty, I guess, with lots of wavy dark blonde hair that fell around her shoulders. She smiled towards me with medium brown eyes that were ringed with black liner.
“Nice to finally meet you, Caleb,” she said. Her voice had an underlying hint of allurement, like she couldn’t wait to get me alone. “I’ve been hearing about you for quite some time.”
