Promise me

The dinner

I was sat in school extremely nervous yet extremely excited I was  doing my last exam of the day these could help me require a job so I was so nervous. But soon as school finished I was having tea with my mum and Joe and another relative who my mum said I would be glad to meet? Then Joe and I had a plane to catch!! We were flying to L.A, I had packed various items that Andy helped me shop for, however she did attempt to put some things on the till that weren't appropriate for the trip, never taking that girl into Victoria secret again!

So as the clocked slowly ticked away to anticipated goal it left me waiting for it agonising torture to be over.

Then the bell went, a wave of relief passed through my body. I went home and by that it wasn't where my mum is, allow me to explain. That cottage well I bought it! I had only been living here a few days moreover in all honesty I had gone back home a few times as I could sleep in my bare room without wallpaper it felt like a prison. I began to get ready for my meal. My mum told me smart dress so I went for a black pencil skirt with a blouse tucked in with some flat shoes. Then there was a knock at the door.
Answering it, Joe's face appeared.
"There's my beautiful girl!" He says coming in, putting his hand around my waist and kissing me.
"Well you look very smart" I say adjusting his collar.

I grab my bag and Joe takes me to his car and we drive the venue the meal was taking place.

Arriving for our dinner we book ourselves in as my mum hadn't got here yet so we sat down and ordered a drink. After we had our first drink my mum came.
"Hi!" She squeals.
"So how are things and your house?"
"Mum it's fine" I laugh rolling my eyes.
"All packed?"
"Yeah" Joe replied, he was perfect at talking to my mum and giving her a brilliant view of him. But that what he was just brilliant.
"So where's this friend of yours?"
"Oh he should be here soon" I was caught of guard by her saying he as I would have thought it was a man maybe it was a work colleague?
Then a figure in a shirt and blazer came through the door I hadn't really took notice of there face and as the approached the table making the distance of us decrease. The face was not what I wanted to see.   
I sat there shocked unable to move.
"Jane are you ok?" Joe asks.
"Jane look I'm sorry I knew you wouldn't have come if you knew" my mum starts. Then he sat down.
"I don't know where to start."
"How about you don't as I didn't know you where coming and I never wanted to see you again"
"Look Jane I'm you father whether you like it or not" Joe grabbed my hand under the table realising what was going on, he knew how much my dad had hurt me.
"No I'm sorry my dad left my mum and I some time ago with no warning probably for some hooker and you will never ever be able to undo that" I get up tucking my chair under the table and Joe follows.
"Jane let me explain you don't know why or what please before it's too late" he says.
"You only come back because I'm some sob story tell me this would you come back if I didn't have cancer?"
"Jane I-" he stops considering he answer but then remains silent.
"Just what I thought. I storm out the restaurant.
