How do I kiss him? I place my hands awkwardly on the floor and readily lean in a little then back up. Why? Why did the bottle have to land on me?
Ding dong.
"I'll get it," Caesar says, scrambling to his feet and walking to the front door. I prep talk myself for the kiss while Caesar talks to the person at the door.
"Ariel?" Caesar calls, walking into the living room. "Your father is here."
"Oh. Why?" I ask, gathering myself and walking to the front door with him.
"Um... I'm not sure. He's picking you up."
I don't answer. I open the front door and see my father. He looks messy and in a hurry. "Bye," I say, walking out the front door and following my dad to his truck.
Once the heater is fully blasted and we're driving away from Caesar's house, I ask, "why did you pick me up?"
He doesn't answer for a minute and I know something is wrong. "Family emergency," he says into the chilly silence.
"What happened?"
"It's your mother. I... I don't," he trembles, "really know yet."
