The car ride was silent, usually we'd be blasting music and laughing non stop but this time I was sitting in silence as I wondered what'd happen when I see my father.
"Skai you good?" Carter asked breaking the silence, "yeah just thinking" I quietly answered. Carter placed his hand on my thigh and gently stroked his thumb back and forth
"Dont lie to me, what happened?" I shook my head "it's nothing, i'm okay" I lied. Carter sighed "I know you Skai, every time we're in the car together it's all laughs but now your quiet and seem so distant. Tell me what's wrong cupcake"
"It's just my father wants to meet me at the mall and I don't know what to expect" Carter immediately pulled over and stopped the car, "No. Skai I am not letting you see that monster" I looked at carter to see anger in his eyes "I have to, I need some sort of closure between him and I and as he said it's not something to do over the phone"
Carter nodded his head then started the car again and headed to the mall. Since my father wasn't there when we reached we stopped in a few stores and took a few pictures

About 30 minutes later my phone started ringing, i pulled it out to see that it was my father "you gonna answer it?" Carter asked as he peeked to see who was calling "I guess" i shrugged as i answered the call. The call was rather fast it mostly consisted of my father trying to hold a conversation but i just kept demanding his location, once he finally told me where he was I hung up and headed over which lucky for me was the food court cause a bitch was HUNGRY.
As I reached to food court I almost instantly spotted my father, he was scrolling through his phone while eating a slice of pizza he also had a chick-fil-a bag next to him that looked like it hadn't been touched. I started to make my way over when I noticed Carter was following me "what are you doing?" I asked Carter, "you don't think i'm gonna let you go there by yourself?" I looked at him and sighed "were in public, what's the worst he's gonna do? hit me?" Carter raised his eyebrows "I mean I wouldn't put it passed him" he then grabbed my hand "i'm coming with you".
We walked over to the table and took a seat, My father gave me a smile which quickly faded once he saw Carter "whos that?" he asked with an attitude "this is my best friend Carter" I smiled as I gave him a hug. After the introductions we spoke about what he wanted to discuss which per usual was the typical bs, the only good thing I got out of coming here was free food cause he bought me chick-fil-a which by the way is my favourite.
I got up to leave when I heard my fathers voice "wait" I turned to look back at him and waited for him to talk " I have something for you" I continued tooling at him with an emotionless face, it took him a while to realise I was waiting for him to show me this so called gift "oh, it's at my hotel, I was thinking you could come there, just you though" at the last part he glanced at Carter for a slight second then back to me. Carter laughed "ight Skai i think it's time we head out" he said as he started walking away. I looked at my father with a sympathy then turned around and caught up with Carter.

I rolled my eyes and put away my phone "whats up?" Carter asked "it's nothing, my father's just being annoying" I sighed, we continued through the mall towards the car park and Carter dropped me home. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
