though. Can it? I’m the only person who hasn’t been suspicious of him. Until now. Everyone else may be on to something. I wonder why she’s even here. She’s supposed to be back in Atlanta. Neither of them see us as they pass, too caught up in each other. And for that, I’m thankful. I’m going to find out what’s going on there. Just not today. No more drama for today. I want to enjoy the rest of my day with my dad.
After we stuff ourselves with all the fried foods imaginable, we decide to check out the games. The first game we come to is one where you throw the darts and try to pop the balloons. Beasley hands the guy two bucks then gives the darts to me.
“Oh, no. I’m no good at this. I might injure someone,” I say as I try to hand the darts back. He shakes his head.
“Come on. You can do it. Just give it a try.”
“Okay, but don’t say you weren’t warned,” I tease as I line myself up to make my throws. I throw the first dart and pop a balloon. Holy shit! I’m so excited, I do a little victory dance then hug Beasley. I’m sure I look like a child, but I don’t give a damn. I throw the second one and pop another balloon. Excitedly, I turn to look at Beasley and see that he has his phone held up taking a video of me. He has the look of a proud father on his face. I quickly turn back around before I get emotional. Returning my focus, I take a deep breath and watch as the dart flies out of my hand and straight into the last balloon. I squeal and jump a little, over excited by this accomplishment. The guy running the booth hands me the cutest purple teddy bear wearing a black bowtie. I thank the man for my bear then run to show Beasley.
“See I knew you could do it,” he says proudly.
“That was so much fun. I still can’t believe I did it. I’ve never been able to win a stuffed animal by myself. Kyle and my grandfather always won them for me.”
“You did it and I have the video to prove it.”
We stop and try our luck at a few more of the game booths. By the time we are done, Beasley has also won me a teddy bear. We decide to sit and get a Caricature drawing done of the two of us. I can’t wait to show Kyle. We also take a ride on the Ferris wheel. Before leaving, I buy some cotton candy. I can’t go to the fair and not have cotton candy.
As we drive home, I can’t help but get lost in my thoughts. What he said during my meltdown has stayed with me throughout the day and talking to someone may not be a bad idea. It might just be time to start dealing with it all and stop pretending.
“Okay, you’re right. I need to start dealing with the cabin, the accident, and my memory loss.” I glance over at Beasley. He keeps both eyes on the road ahead and nods a confirmation. “I’ll ask Becky if she can recommend a good doctor. Thank you.”
“What are you thanking me for? I didn’t do anything.”
“Thank you for being my dad. For being a really good one when I needed it the most.”
“Thank you for letting me. You are the strongest and bravest women I know.” He quickly glances in my direction and smiles.
A MBER AND I are on our way to the bar for a night out. She’s having her girl’s night with Holly, Becky, and Taryn and I’m working and playing a set with the guys. It feels so good to get out again like we did before the accident. We need to get back to our normal routines and start living our lives the way we had always planned.
“What are you thinking about over there?” Amber asks as she reaches over and rubs my shoulder.
“Just about how nice it is to be going out and doing things like we used to.”
“I agree. I think it will be good for both of us. I think it’s time I go back to the center too. The sooner we can get into our normal routine, the better.” She smiles at me when I glance over at her. As nervous as I am about not being able to be with her, I know this is what’s best for both of us.
“As long as you feel ready, I’m behind
