Chapter 26 : Reality

Christian

"What did Patricia say yesterday?" Ivanna asks after we drop Chrisanna at her school and I head towards Ivanna's firm to drop her off.

Even though Ivanna has her car, I prefer to drop both of them off every morning.

"She asked me to meet today. I was about to go there after dropping you off", I say.

Ivanna gawks at me right away, completely stunned.

"And you didn't even find it important to tell me?" She shrugs.

I part my lips in a bit of shock since I didn't really expect her to react like that.

"No. I thought you would have a pile of work regarding the new venture", I tell her.

"But I do find time for my daughter, Chris. Don't I?" She exclaims. "Stop making me feel like I'm prioritising other things", she looks away.

Her sudden reaction leaves me dumbfounded.

"What? When did I make you feel like that?" I shrug and immediately halt.

She looks freaked out as she glances outside the window. I think I should start making it a habit to deal with her sudden rough behaviour.
