Sad and Mad Kelly's POV

13

I couldn't ignore him. The fact that he's here without me telling him about my plans means he knew something's going on and he didn't tell me about it. I feel like he doesn't want me to see my father and it confuses me. Why would he do this? Yes! I hated my father but he knew that he's still my father. No matter how I hate him, I still care because he's my flesh and blood,

"What are you doing here, Klay?" I asked cautiously.

He stared into my eyes intently, "I'm here to accompany you."

"To where?"

"To your father."

I looked away for a second and shook my head before looking at him again, "How did you know that I want to see my father? You said he's on vacation."

"I lied, Kelly."

I was shocked by his own confession. He lied? He lied to me about my father. Why?

"I don't understand why you had to lie, Klay. But I'm telling you now, I will never forgive you if something happens to my father."

"He doesn't want me to tell you, Kelly. I don't have a choice."

"Tell me about what?"

He took a deep sigh. Shook his head and gently held my hand. My heart raced when he pulled me closer to him and gently planted a soft kiss on my forehead. "I'm sorry for hiding the truth. I won't lie to you again."

My forehead creased. "Of all people, Klay..."
