My Fathers Best Friend Novels & Stories

“If I am not your keeper, what am I?” My dad’s best friend. But I do not want to say that, because I hate it. I hate that it is all he’ll ever be. “A friend?” I try. “I do not do friends.” “But you have Aspen.” “Aspen and I work together and we’re close in age. Do you fall into that category?” I twist my lips, wiping my clammy palm against my denim shorts. “Do you, Genevieve?” Damn it and him and Aspen. And what’s with his need to have an answer to every question he poses? The dictator.

“Keep your phone near you at all times and I want you to check in with me every few hours. If I lost you too, I’d…” I wrap my arms around his waist and kiss his cheek. “I know, Dad. I miss Mom too, but she’s not coming back. I promise to check in and give my old man a little peace. I love you, Dad.” He didn’t look convinced of my story but let me go anyway. It wasn’t a complete lie. I was going to see an old friend I connected with. However, my father had no idea it was his best friend that I was going to be with.

"Your father rushed out to Jordan's house — his former best friend. He was sure he had something to do about it—" "Best friend? You mean Dad ever had a best friend?!" "Yes — Jordan — that was his name. They had some disputes which led to their enmity. Your father never spoke about it with me. Well, your father marched up to him just when he'd recalled Jordan's threat, I quote: 'I shall take away your happiness, just as you did mine!'" "Woah," said Harry. "That's one hell of a threat there, it had to be him."

I said with a sigh. "Who's the guy?" "His name is Mike, he is Daren's best friend in high school." I answered his question. "Mike...?" I notice the raising of his eyebrows, I can read on his face as if that name is familiar to him. "Yep. Uhm, wait, don't think that I was a two timer back then, that I took them both at the same time. You might think differently, Daren and Mike are still best friends. My daughter's father is the best friend of the one I married, won't you think I'm a different two timer or maybe I'm a dirty woman."

“I don’t want to be here anymore.” “I did too. I want to hear about your childhood, Astrid. Your college days and your first date even though your dad already told me that part. I want to hear it from you.” I laughed, "Don’t pretend you care about me, Sir.” “You’re wrong about that. Your father is my best friend and I’ve been informed that I’m your godfather. So, I do care about you and I want you to believe that.” I bring my eyes to his.

Because of that, my father has been Benny's closest friend until now and has never changed. I could see that my father looked happy when he told me a part of his youth. From his story, I knew enough to know that he meant it in their long-standing friendship, and I felt unsure about passing on what Richard had said. I was also suspicious of my fiancé's father, who might not have fully shown himself; after all, my son never lied, nor did he just say things about himself, but I also couldn't help but consider the friendship between the two successful businessmen who had made a name for themselves overseas.

“It's just the pressure of the final show, it has to be great or I am done in this industry. And on top of everything, I found out about Lexie and my father being together... It's affecting me more than I'd like to admit." Robert's eyes widen in surprise. "That's... unexpected. Together as in…?” “Together as in… together together, I don’t even want to think about it!” I see him thinking for a moment and I bite my lip nervously, then he continues. “You know, they might be a good match for each other. Your father has been lonely for a long time, and Lexie could use someone stable in her life. Someone better than the last asshole you told me she used to date."

At that time, I didn’t understand what was going on, in fact I didn’t know what it meant when my mother told me my father was dead. My father had always been a good man, he was kind to everyone and I just couldn’t imagine him betraying anyone nor could I wrap my mind over why someone would kill him, let alone his best friend. But then again, I had no idea who the best friend was or the type of people my father rolled around with.

He was dressed in a well-tailored black suit that reflected his personality, making him stand out amidst the crowds. You see, Ivor and my dad have been friends since I can remember. They met in high school because my dad took some classes with him and they started hanging out. Their friendship went on to the university as they decided to attend the university even though my dad majored in architecture and Ivor went on to major in business administration. Ivor doesn't talk about his family that much and for all I know, he was orphaned at the age of six.
