22 " What’s with them? They used to bicker occasionally but now it seems like it’s happening all the time. "
23 " Good. How are you?” I thought it would be rude to skip all the pleasantries. “Great. Your mother and I just got back from the Van Gogh museum.” I cocked an eyebrow. “Haven’t you been to that already?” “Yeah…but your mother loves it.” Dad pulled the phone away then whispered in the background. He was probably talking to my mom. “I’ll be there in a second.” He was back to me. “Any particular reason why you called?” “My computer is "
24 " Zack was using Skye for her money. "
25 " insult, actually.” He breathed into the phone while he moved around. Then I heard typing. “It’s probably running slow because you’re downloading too much porn.” “I don’t download porn,” I argued. “Hey, I’m not judging you.” “Well, I don’t.” “Come on…let’s be real here,” he teased. “I’m not dumb enough to download it. I stream it.” He laughed. “Smart boy.” He typed on his computer. “Let me take a look. "
26 " I don’t like this. It makes me uncomfortable and I don’t want you seeing him anymore. "
27 " She’s not bright. "
28 " I didn’t have a response to that. I drank my beer, not sure what else to do. When I was around Skye, I was nervous. My heart rate was always a little quicker when she was near. It was difficult to pay attention to anything else in the room because she consumed my thoughts. I had her wardrobe memorized, and I recognized her scent from a mile away "
29 " if you got it, flaunt it. "
30 " You’re driving me crazy and I’m sick of your bullshit. All you do is stress me out for no reason at all. I’m perfectly happy being alone. I don’t need a man to make me happy, and I certainly don’t need one who acts like a five-year-old. "
31 " Doing what? Homework. I knew that was a bad response the moment I sent it. You never do homework. Ugh. I’m sick. Which is it? You’re busy or you’re sick? "
32 " needed to get a new laptop. The damn thing ran so slow at the most crucial times. I was trying to submit my paper to the teacher’s website when my computer decided to take a break instead. "
33 " A father loves a daughter Like no other love on earth. From the day that he first meets her Nothing can compare her worth. Forever are they bonded With a love that never fails. For always he will hug her And kiss her goodnight with fairy tales. He will love her and protect her With strong arms just in case But will also hug her tenderly With a fatherly embrace. Eskimo kisses touch her nose With a giggle and a squeeze And that sparkle in her little eyes Could bring him to his knees. What more could any father want Than a daughter so sweet and pure There's nothing in this world so rare Of that he can be sure. A father’s love is so unique It cannot be replaced He will always treasure times with her And the memories embraced. "
34 " What if I fall? Oh but my darling, what if you fly? "
35 " Geez, someone’s in a hurry.” “I have to submit this paper in…” I looked at my watch. “Half an hour.” “I’ll be done long before then.” His mouse made a few adjustments before it went idle. “There. Brand new.” I used my mouse to access the website. Then I attached my paper to the correct folder and submitted "
36 " The apartment was spotless. "
37 " No…we didn’t really break up.” I felt ashamed to admit it. “I know he’s obnoxious sometimes but he can be really sweet when it’s just us so I figured I’d give him another chance. "
38 " Unlike you, I choose to be humble.” “The most successful people in life didn’t stand in the corner and hope their talents would be miraculously noticed. They put themselves out there and blatantly told the world what they had to offer. Keep that in mind.” “Seriously? "
39 " Fine. Then I won’t shave my legs,” she threatened. It was my turn to cringe. “I win. "
40 " separate hard drive so it won’t affect your computer. Or you could just get another computer strictly for porn. Personally, I go with the second route.” “Good to know,” I said sarcastically. “My "
