Chapter 29 Mom's Fiance 16

• I kill my car’s engine when I slowly park in my driveway. For what feels like ages, I watch River through the transparent window as she bustles around the fridge in the kitchen in search of an ice cream scoop I bought yesterday on my way back from work.
• I’m yet to understand her addiction to licking vanilla ice cream. My curious eyes track the movement of her lips as she sucks on the ice cream, her hand gripping the waffle cone tightly. She’s licking it like a dick, tugging the hem cautiously while the tip of her tongue rolls around the crown of the ice cream.
