Chapter 86
*****Vincent's POV*****
"Are you two coming inside or what?!" We both snap our heads around to find Reid leaning out of the front door - hand outstretched with his palm facing upwards as though we were both idiots for waiting outside for this long... "Where are the girls?" I ask, knowing that I was far too worked up over my father's texts to deal with them both in this moment, fearing that I wouldn't be able to hide my concern for much longer.
"Upstairs... why? What's gotten into you two?!" Reid drags on in suspicion, needing to know what was going on as Daryl locks his car and we decide to eventually go in.
Reid continues to stare between us both, clearly sensing a thickening tension but chooses to remain quiet to wait for an explanation.
I brush past him without a word, heading straight for the kitchen, before I grab a bottle of whisky and three glasses, placing them out on the countertop.
I spin the cap as the other two join me, all taking a seat around the central island before I pour and divvy out the drinks.
"A lot has happened in the past couple of days since I've been gone," I say Reid, my voice low but firm, letting him know that this wasn't some casual catch-up or joke. "Will you two just hurry up and tell me what the hell is going on?" He questions, as I take a moment to swing back some of the burning alcohol to help ease my mind.
Leaning forward with my elbows placed on the counter, taking a second to figure out where to even start, I tell him:
"It's Sofia's dad," I finally mutter. "He's not just some random guy. He's apparently connected... to my father." I swallow the lump in my throat, with the situation feeling all the more real after saying it out loud.
Reid raises an eyebrow, clearly confused. "What's the deal with her Dad anyway? Daryl told me that she ran away from home but that's all I know..." Reid squints at me, reminding me that he had only barely been in the loop with Sofias scenario thus far.
