The Hockey Star’s Remorse
Chapter 218
hapter 218
The city sprawled beneath us as Timothy’s car glided through the streets. The familiar city lights blurred into a hazy glow, almost dizzying to look at.
The drive back to our apartments was filled with a heavy silence. The disastrous dinner replayed in my mind like a haunting melody, and I couldn’t shake the image of my mother out of my mind. I felt around in my pocket for the slip of paper she had handed me, her number sprawled across its surface.
As Timothy parked the car, he turned to me with a remorseful expression. “Evie, I’m so sorry about tonight. I had no idea it would turn out like that.”
I offered a half–smile, attempting to downplay the severity of the situation. “It’s okay. It was the thought that counted, right?”
He sighed. “I just wanted you to meet my father and, well, I didn’t anticipate the whole Mia situation.”
I nodded, the bitterness of the evening still fresh in my mind. “It’s not your fault. I appreciate you wanting to bring me anyway, even if it was more than I bargained for.”
He gave me a sympathetic look. “I had no idea your mother was Mia. I wouldn’t have invited you if I did.”
I shrugged, trying to dismiss the weight of disappointment. “It’s fine. It’s not like I expected her to be Mother of
the Year.”
Timothy ran a hand through his hair, his eyes searching for the right words. “I just feel so awful. I mean, what do you say to that? I never meant to put you in such an awkward situation.”
“It’s not your fault,” I repeated. “I just need some time to process everything.”
As we stepped out of the car, he wrapped his arm around me and we walked inside. As we reached my door, Timothy turned to me with a sincerity that eased the tension.
“I hope you know that I’m here for you. If you need anything, just let me know.”
I smiled. “Thank you.”
Timothy leaned in, his lips brushing against mine. I found myself responding, wrapping my arms around his neck.
