Cruel North

from Carry a library in your ears all day · host J.B. Salsbury

hated man in the North Brothers world finally gets brought to his knees. A teenage girl with my eyes and a familiar glare, strolls into my life and she's calling me Dad. Vanessa was my high school girlfriend and the smartest person I knew. She had a plan, a future, and she swore nothing would get in the way. Until she became pregnant. I thought we agreed on our plan. I sent her the money. Then she disappeared. Her parents told me she was in South America for a year. They told me she needed space. I never heard from her again. Seventeen years later and she's back. But it's not just about us anymore. We have a daughter. Wanting to get to know her, I convince them to move in with me for one month. I'm so angry with Vanessa and she seems to be equally upset. Every insult from her smart mouth invites me to engage. The brutal chemistry between us ignites old embers. I wish I could hate her. Instead, I want her. But too much time has passed, and I fear some hurts run too deep to heal.
