Food Truck Hero ~ A Love in the City Romance by Dellani Oakes Part 33
“Late nights…. Slept in the office.” “What set her off tonight?” “I don’t know. She was crazy, screaming, swinging the blade. I dodged and she fell. Cut herself.” He motioned to his belly, sliding his hand from right to left. “Blood. Everywhere.” “Why didn’t you call and ambulance?” “I tried. All tied up with an…

“Why tell me? Why not Mom or my sisters?” “Your name was in her emergency information, as next of kin.” Nodding, I thanked him for the information and he left. “We have to go to the hospital,” Mom said. “No. Descending on the hospital is the last thing we need to do.” That was an…

CONTENT WARNING An angry silence fell over them. If looks could maim and kill, I’d be in little pieces, bleeding profusely. “You’re welcome to stay out here, enjoy the pool. Have a few beers and spend the night, but I’m going to my room. You’re welcome to join me,” I directed at Rowena. “And the…

“But not tonight, you’ve been drinking. Backup wouldn’t be amiss,” she added, raising an eyebrow at Randy. “Anything for family, Deirdre,” he replied. My estimation of this possible brother-in-law went up exponentially. Nodding, she went out. I heard the women leaving, but decided that my presence would be unappreciated. Suzie did poke her head in…

Someone tapped on the bedroom door. “Yeah?” I called from the closet. Chica poked her head in. “Do you have another pair of shorts? Randy doesn’t have any with him.” “Yeah. One second.” I dug around in a drawer and found a pair. Not my favorite, they’ve hardly been worn. Chica had bought them for…

“I know. It was completely unfair. I’m sorry.” May I emphasize that Chica never apologizes for anything? Ever. Never has. For her to say that to me, meant a lot. I gave her a hug and kiss. “Let’s get some food before Suzie eats it all.” Our pregnant sister’s plate was piled high. It wasn’t…

He chuckled, nodding. “Did you really scare the boyfriends away?” “That was the joy of my life. I put on a growth spurt early. I was six feet tall when I was fifteen. Filled out a year or so later. Hit this height when I was a junior.” “How tall?” “Six three.” And a skosh,…

“Sheesh, Keir. When did you get to be such a hard ass?” “Since you had sex with your boyfriend, in my house.” “Party poop.” I didn’t engage her. She was spoiling for a fight. I learned long ago to keep my mouth shut, and walk away. If I gave her too much shit, she’d call…

“Why are you here? Besides having sex in my guest bedroom?” “Mom asked me to stop by. She was worried.” “I’m fine.” “She wanted me to meet your new woman.” “She’s at work.” “What’s with you?” Randy walked in, pulling on his shirt. I gestured to him, then her. It should be obvious, and would…

The young, female bagger, walked me out. I didn’t want the help, but she seemed determined. Not to be conceited, but I get this fairly often. Honestly, I’m not that good looking, but they fall all over themselves. I gave her a tip, which I’m not really supposed to do, and thanked her. Then again,…
