Why is everything just so stressful.

Urrgg can't a  girl just talk with her biological dad without  interruption from his new family.

I  forced a smile to my dad as he received yet another call from his new wife. Damn she is being clingy. I thought.
I mean I get it its love, but it does have to be free , trusting and welcoming and definitely not clingy. That was the sixth time she has called in the past thirty minutes. I wonder if this is how she calls him at work.

I just hoped that my mum would  move on and find love again. She deserves to be free to love and for someone to love her. Well I am not the expert having been in one messy relationship that ended bitterly but all I can say is  she deserves true love.

I watched my dad as he walked back to his seat after ending his call with his new wife. A sweet smile was plastered on his face. He seems to be having the the best time of his life. Well I wish him all the best.

He resumed back to his seat and gave me a  smile.

"Sorry about that." He said.

"So how is your mother? " he asked.

"Good." I replied curtly.

"So dad which school will I be attending to." I asked.

"Oh about that, I decided to take you to a private school somewhere in Karin. Its not much but I sure can bet you its a good school and its a day school, so no boarding."

I smiled at that atleast he remembered I hate boarding school.

"Well the school provides everything for you and they give you extra credit for participating in any extra curricular activities. So go out there and do your thing."
He said enthuthiastically with an awkward swing of his arm.
" Dad I get it no need to be extra." I told him feeling people's eyes on us.

"Its only a few minutes drive from home so you will be fine." He finally said.

"Do you have any bronchure or pamphlet?" I inqiured.

"No sweerie but I'll email you the details." He said taking out his phone and typing into it.

Few seconds later my phone pinged.

"Yeah thats it everything is sorted you just have to report to school on Tuesday."

"Okay, thanks Dad." I smiled.

" Okay I have to get going," he stated getting up and grabbing his things.

" How about I give you a ride?"

"Um.. I'm good I'll just take an uber when I am done." I replied.

"Okay sweerie see you next time. Have fun in school." He said the last part drawing his  arms out like a highschool jock and doing some crazy beat boxing rythm.

Okay now everyone had their eyes on us.

'Lord save me the embarrassment.'

I mentally facepalmed myself and signalled with my eyes to stop being weird.

It worked.

Immediately he straightened himself up and returned to his normal business self.

He gave me one quick smile and marched out.

By now the whole restaurant had its eyes on us.  I got up and ran to the bathroom to save myself from the stares.

'Well what a day.' I thought to myself.

I entered a cubicle and waited for some minutes to pass then got out. Immediately my phone vibrated. I took it out.
It was a message from  my mom.

'Come back home right now. I need  you to do something for me'

I sighed, I bet its something to do with the relocation.

'Okay. I'm on my way.' I replied her text..
