Chapter Text
It’s a family gathering.
The night is calm but humid. It’s an evening for music, food, and mischief.
Sitting to your right is your husband, Kyle. Across from you is your father. Kyle is on his phone, typing out a text message. Your father is six beers in and nearly falling asleep.
It’s the perfect opportunity to be a little naughty.
“Hey, daddy.”
They both come to attention. Both turn in your direction. Both make the realization at the same time.
Your father clears his throat.
And Kyle?
Kyle stares at you. How could you betray me, it says.
Oops.
