You're Out Daddy

Chapter 19

From the angle of the photo taken, they did seem intimate.

Kenneth wanted to pull Thea to a stand, but her body kept slumping against his. She couldn’t stand straight no matter how much he supported her.

“Kenneth, I’m sorry…” Her whole body went limped against his.

“Thea? Thea!” Kenneth tried to wake her up, but she didn’t respond. Without a choice, he picked her up and set her in the passenger seat of his car.

With her settled in, he rounded the car and got in the driver’s seat. With the click of his belt, he pulled away from the venue.

As he drove to Thea’s condominium, he didn’t notice the paparazzi following him.

Kenneth placed Thea’s finger against the condominium door’s sensor. After a couple of beeps and a buzz, he opened the door and headed straight to her bedroom. Since he had been there before, he knew his way around.

He was about to leave after depositing Thea on the bed.

“No! No! Get off me! Let go of me!” Thea suddenly shouted.

Kenneth looked over his shoulder and saw Thea flailing her arms as though she was having a nightmare.

He rushed back to her side and held onto her hand. “Thea? Thea, you’re okay. You’re safe now. We’re at your condominium.”

After a few bouts of comforting words, Thea finally opened her eyes. She looked into Kenneth’s eyes with tears swimming in hers. “Kenneth…” her voice cracked as she wrapped her arms around him.

“I’m scared! I’m so scared!” she sobbed as her grip tightened around Kenneth.

Patting her back gently, Kenneth comforted her. “You’re okay now, Thea. You’re safe.”

They remained in the position for a while. Kenneth wasn’t sure how much time had passed, but he gently unwrapped her arms from his neck when her weeping stopped.

“Thea, you should get some rest for the rest of the night. You don’t have to go to the office tomorrow,” Kenneth said.

Thea stayed silent and continued staring at him with a pleading look.

“It’s getting late, and I have to go now,” he explained as he got to his feet.
