Braedon didn't have much longer to offer bad comfort. Cassidy put on a smile when she heard the front door swing open and two seconds later I was in the kitchen. Gabriel entered a few moments later A fifteen minute head start and you still lost, I commented.
Teleporting through time was quicker than driving? Holy shit, someone call the press, replied Braedon, sarcastically.
Hey, Braedon. Why are you here? asked Gabriel, still hugging his son.
Braedon chuckled and commented on the poor welcome. Zach came over. I tried to do some damage control.
It was only a few seconds before both Gabriel and I realised what was going on. I sighed, annoyed. Sorry, Cassie. Just ignore him, I offered.
Do you think you'll ever stop apologising for him? she said, oddly. Her words seemed to come from nowhere but they seemed to hold real venom.
Gabriel answered, You'll understand when you have children.
It's hard to hate them, no matter how they turn out, I responded, wondering if she actually knew that I was half joking. No matter how challenging Zach makes it.
