“I understand, sugar. Living a public life is trying, but if I know one thing, Kam would never put you second. Yes, he has obligations and responsibilities, but the love is there. That’s what’s important. And trust me, he needs you.”
“For what?” I scoff. “He has the world at his feet. He practically walks on water.”
My father smiles knowingly. “Kam may be surrounded by adoring fans and hounding media, but believe me, he really is alone.”
“Are you speaking from experience, Daddy?”
“Possibly.” He smirks. “You were always my rock, maybe it’s time to be Kam’s.”
I gaze into my father’s kind eyes. I honestly never thought of it like that. Kam walks around with an air of authority that feels untouchable. Sometimes you almost forget that he’s human.
Was I wrong to leave him the first time? My heart says yes, but my head says no. Now that I look back, maybe I was just a confused, eighteen-year-old girl trying to adjust to college and jealous she had to share her boyfriend with the whole damn world.
“Looks like you’ve got some thinking to do.” My father smiles sympathetically.
“I sure do,” I pout.
