I HAVE ONE JOB to do at my high school’s ten-year reunion tonight: tell
my high school boyfriend, Heath Riley, he has a son. That thought is on
repeat in my head as I watch my kids playing happily in the pool. How did
my life get so complicated? It doesn’t feel like all that long ago I was just a
kid myself, not a care in the world. But that’s not my reality these days.
“Ruby, Connor, come dry off for dinner.” My sister Jasmine calls the
kids, holding their towels up. And I know my time to procrastinate is over.
“Go get dressed,” she tells me in that bossy tone she reserves for her sisters.
I roll my eyes dramatically in Cassandra’s direction, and she stifles a
giggle, knowing how persistent Jasmine can be. I don’t want to move from
my comfy spot of the reclining pool chair. The afternoon sun has warmed
my skin and made me sleepy. Jasmine and Cassandra have been listing all
the reasons I can’t miss tonight’s reunion, like a chance to show my
classmates how successful I am, running my own fashion label. And if that
was all tonight was about, I’d probably be okay about going. But it’s not.
“Geez, you’re bossy today,” I mutter, making a move for the house.
“Someone has to get you there. It’s for your own good, Millie,” she tells
me like I don’t already know I have to go to this thing. I know I do. I just
don’t want to.
I take a quick shower, piping-hot, hoping the temperature will wake me
up. When I hop out, the room is filled with steam. I wrap a towel around
myself so I can wipe off the fogged-up bathroom mirror. My long blonde
bob is a tangled mess, but a quick work through with my blowout brush and
I’m looking myself again.
It’s been ten years since I graduated high school, and tonight, along with
the rest of my class, I’m torturing myself and taking a trip down memory
lane. I know the night is going to be a massive punishment, but I’m going
anyway. It’s that awkward feeling of knowing you have to see people you
haven’t in so long and explain how your life maybe didn’t quite turn out the
way you planned back when you were young and so full of hopes and
dreams. Divorced at twenty-eight with two kids in tow wasn’t how I saw
this life going. At least my business is doing well. I’ll just direct
conversation back onto that.
