I rode back from my dads place..i go to see him sometimes even though my mom clearly objects to it,he lived four hours from us and i drove there most times to say hi..my sister was closer to my mom,and i my dad...my dad is a lawyer,had his money but he lost a lot during the divorce,dont ask why i didnt go with him...well he d lost custody in court because of his new found sexuality...yeah my dad had discovered he was gay and divorced my mom...reason to hate him right but i still had this soft spot for him...he hadnt been allowed to express it when he was younger,his family had been very traditional and expected him to get married,have kids,but he d met a guy from college and that was how he d began cheating on my mom...hearing his confession had really hurt... to think he d not really wanted us these past years...my mom had seriously been heartbroken that period,my sister and i,well had been confused about the whole issue....it had been two years now since it happened,i had no idea if my mom was dating..maybe,with the way my sister's been acting...i turned a bend and saw a headlight,yea lots of headlights since it was night but this one was packed...i got to the spot...and discovered it was familiar...then i saw...Keane....i packed and got out.."hey"i called to him,he looked up"u ok?",he looked back into the bonnet"yea....why dont you just be on your way?",yea ask me that but i got no answer"look am sorry ok.....about earlier" "you dont have to be sorry,u had no idea who i was",he peered into the bonnet again,i stared at him"need some help?" "No..",........was my help poison? "looks like u need some help" "i already called my mechanic,just wanna lock it up"he shut close the bonnet going towards the door"whats wrong with it?",he looked at me exasperated"battery..or plug..car wont start" "let me have a look,i know one or two things about cars",he stared at me like i was stupid"do u really think i ll let you mess around with my baby?",i shrugged"no thanks"he shut the door and locked it...i should leave but he was just too damn gorgeous for his own good,i found myself checking him out again,his movements,everything was graceful,do such people exist..thought only in the movies..and not just his looks,something didnt look right about him like he was frustrated..tired.."need a ride?",he didnt look at me"i already called a friend" "that would be five mins standing in the cold" "what is that to you..uh"we held gazes..his eyes looked sad"u dont even know me" "well i could help a stranger in need"i said "u would seriously ride with a stranger in ur car,when u couldnt trust him with Is...are you really that blonde?",i bit my bottom lip,what was with guys insulting me"look im sorry ok",he looked me up then looked at the road.."right,lets go"he said and texted whoever he d called to pick him up..glad he d finally forgiven me,we got in my car and i drove off..kept glancing at him as he stared ahead,he looked pensive like he wasnt with me at all"you ok?" "hmhm...so do i get a name?" ,i smiled"karen.." "im keane"he said and stared at me"you friends with Is?" oh not her"no..ive never talked to her" "and you were that protective"he chuckled"funny" "what" "i hear about you all worshipping her in school and all",i gaped,he thought i..i couldnt care a hoot about Is.."no..u got it all wrong" "i get it alright..i mean shes beautiful"he stared ahead like i wasnt there..."right or left?"i asked when we got to a junction"left",a silence"so uh...since when did u both start dating?",he stared ahead still"im not about to discuss my girlfriend with you...i mean i only know ur first name" "protective",he chuckled"that lane"he pointed and i drove towards what i thought was the most magnificent white building id ever seen,did he live there..i stopped at the gate"thanks..i really appreciate the ride"he said"you welcome",he looked at me then opened the door"could have asked you in but i dont wanna keep you out late still" "im fine"no i wasnt,i wanted to see what the insides looked like"some other time"i doubted there would be,tonight was just clear coincidence and he was Is's boyfriend..he smiled at me then went to the gate,punched a code and it opened,he looked back at me before he went in...i smiled before i drove off,at least i know where he stayed...focus Karen..Issabels bf,my cell began to ring and i picked it looking at the caller id"hey Lia" "where the hell are you..ur mom is worried" "oh..i..went to town,did u cover up for me?" "yea..told her you were with me,you ok?" "yea,i went to c my dad",a silence"we ll talk about it at school ok..gudnyt and get home soon" "yes mom",i could imagine her rolling her eyes as she cut..i drove straight home..my cell rang again..oh hell,i didnt want to pick but it kept ringing as i got closer to my place"yea hello" "hey its Brian",i paused,...how did he get my no.."hey Brian" "i got ur no from Lia,hope you dont mind?"
