Resentment

Chapter 5

Tamar pov

I woke up around 10:00 and I just sat in my bed. I looked at my phone and thought about calling him. What will I say to him? How will she react to me calling? I put all all thoughts aside and called him.

"Hello?"

His voice was still scary to me. Just hearing him say that one word made memories come back to my mind.

"Who is this?"

I couldnt find the right words to say.

"Is anyone on here?"

I stayed silent.

"Im about to hang up now."

"Wait!"

"Now you can say something. Who is this?"

"Its Tamar."

"Tamar? What do you want?"

"I dont want nothing from you."

"Then why did you call me after all of these years?"

"Your daughter wants to meet you."

"What daughter? I don't remember you being pregnant."

"Maybe because you almost killed me."

"I never put a hand on you. Everything that happened to you was your fault."

"Look I didnt call you to argue with you about the past. She has been asking about you. Can you see her today at 2?"

"Where?"

"At the Shake Shack."

"Alright."

"Bye-"

"Wait. How old is she?"

"16."

"Ok see yall later."

After that I hung up the phone. I got up and walked to Kacey's room. The door was open so I just walked in.

"Good morning Kacey."

"Good morning."

I could tell she was still upset about but all of that was about to change.

"I have some good news."

"What is it?"

"I talked to your father and he agreed to see you."

"I thought you said it was a bad idea?"

"I know what I said but I gave it a little thought and I called him."

"What did he say?"

"He said he would meet you. He asked how old are you and I told him. That was it."

"What time and where?"

"Today at the Shake Shack at 2."

"Thank you for doing this." she said and she hugged me. I gladly hugged her back.

"Your welcome. When we get there do you want me to stay or leave?"

"You can leave and come back."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. This is something I want to do alone."

"Ok. Well be ready by 1:30."

"Ok."

I got up and walked out. This was something I wasnt prepared for at all. I really didn't want to leave her alone with him but I understand she wants to talk to him alone.
