THE FEMALE SPECIES can take a rocket to the moon for all I care.
Seriously. I’ve deleted all my dating apps, haven’t let any of my guy friends
or co-workers set me up with any “totally hot babes,” and on the rare
occasion that I do see a girl that tickles my fancy or gets my pants tight all of
a sudden, I’m not even approaching her.
You know why? Because all women do is leave you.
My mom, she bailed on me when I was twelve, leaving me with nothing
but the parade of women that my dad brought in and out of my life for the
next ten years. And my last girlfriend, Emily, who I dated for the majority of
my college experience, figured her job offer in Miami was more important
than our relationship.
She wanted to stay friends, though. Of course she wanted to stay friends.
They always want to stay friends after they’ve broken your heart, don’t they?
But anyway.
Now I’m back home, and I have other problems to deal with. Problems
like my dad wanting me to come and be a part of his real estate firm. See,
most people wouldn’t see that as a problem. Most people would consider it a
blessing, a privilege even. But most people wouldn’t understand that I’ve
been basically expected to join my father’s firm since I was old enough to
understand what joining his firm meant.
And don’t get me wrong; I appreciate the fact that I even have the option.
I appreciate what my father has built, but I want to do the same thing for
myself. I don’t want my life’s work handed to me on a platter. I want to forge
something on my own and not just walk into the office every day with
everything already laid out for me.
But somehow my dad just can’t seem to understand that.
I don’t mind an honest day’s work. That’s why I volunteered to put this
fresh coat of paint on Luna’s bedroom today. Luna, my step-sister who I’ve
never even met, who is moving in with us today, along with my step-mom,
Susan. They should be arriving any minute, and I’m honestly kind of ready to
get the whole meeting out of the way so I can go off and do my own thing.
Some of the guys from work were talking about heading to the bar to grab
some drinks, and that sounds a whole lot better than milling about the house
chatting with a couple of chicks I’ve got no interest in getting to know or
really having anything to do with in the future.
I spend about ten minutes putting the next few coats of paint on the wall
when I hear the door downstairs. My dad comes up behind me. “They’re
here, buddy.”
