Go on a date with Joel? I didn’t know if I could do that.
God, I felt confused. I wanted to give it a shot, but I really was scared it would fuck up my life in some way. Whether it hurt Jenson, my job, or my heart.
“Hey, kiddo?” I called out to Jenson. I wanted to talk to him about it; maybe having his input would make me feel better.
“Yeah, Mom?” He came out of his room and waited for me to ask whatever question he knew was coming.
“Come sit with me; I have something to talk to you about.”
He did, but looked nervous.
“What would you think if I went on a date with Joel?” I wasn’t sure if he would be all about it or if he would wish I didn’t. It could go either way.
“Joel Kline?”
“Yeah,kid, Joel Kline. He kinda asked me on a date. I’m not sure what to say. I won’t do it if you don’t want me to.” One word from my kid, and I would never think twice about it again.
