Not expecting his question, I just stare.
Julia interrupts by asking, “Can I ride to the next driveway?”
Vince nods and says, “Be sure to stop,” as I continue staring at their interaction.
Then he focuses his beautiful eyes on me, and I’m still at a loss for words.
“Syd? Everything okay?”
Shaking my head and remembering I need to answer him in words, I say, “Yeah. I’ll be around.”
He points in the direction of his tiny tot trekking away. “I’d better catch up with her. I’ll give you a call later tonight.”
He leans in and kisses my cheek before running off in the direction of Julia.
All I can do is stare in their direction. I watch them until I can’t see them any longer as one thought runs through my mind on repeat.
Holy shit. Vince is a father.
