My dad brought me to see the Cubs play when I was nine. He’d lied to my mom. Told her he wanted to treat me to ice cream and pizza to celebrate my straight As. Just the two of us.
Father and daughter.
Excitement overwhelmed me to watch a baseball game in person with my dad. Once we parked, he told me to stay in the car. I watched him walk over to another car. A woman with red hair sat behind the wheel. He got in next to her.
Never trusted the man again.
Not even after twenty years.
