“Yes, but, she didn’t have anyone else.”
“And did you?”
“Yes.”
“Who?”
“Finch. Kyle Finch has been my number one since the moment I met him at fourteen, my number one, my fucking rock. He has always had my back.”
“How about sharing this news with him? And with your sister? It could be the bridge you need.”
“You think that will work?”
“Work? Work is probably the wrong word. But it’ll help. It’ll give you some focus, something to talk about. Max, you’re going to be a father. Your best friend and your sister will want to be there to help you. They’ll want to experience this all with you.”
I nod.
“Let them in again, Max.”
I nod, but not as firmly this time. She’s right. I know she is. It just hurts so much. But this is for me and Ali. Our baby. It’s bigger than any beef I’ve ever had with Finch. I’m going to need as much help as I can get and those two are the ones I trust most in the world.
If anyone can help my screwed-up brain right now, it’s my straight-talking baby sister. And my piss-taking yet loyal best friend.
