tell me how we're not alike


Char was happy that Micah and his girlfriend could come over with the baby. Of course, she couldn't tell how they were actually doing. Micah was as indifferent as he always was.

"Is he doing anything with the baby?" Char asked once she was alone with Sally.

"He's Micah, what can I say." She looked doubtful even if her eyes shown bright. "He's with me now. It's a start."

Char nodded and guessed Sally was right, this kind of thing couldn't be rushed, but she really hoped Micah wanted to be a dad. Although, she was certain it wasn't much different than her own family. Of course, she really didn't know since her mom never talked about him. She hoped this didn't happen to Sally. "I'm glad you two are trying." Char smiled and was happy to hold baby Ava.

It wasn't long until the rest of the company arrived. Char was only expecting one person, Cole. Not two.

Char couldn't help but looked surprised. Jared was with Cole. She winced thinking she didn't think Jared had a brother. He never spoke of a brother. But as luck would have it Diago was great friends with Cole.

Jared looked a bit out of it. He wasn't his usual smiling self. Char guessed they could act like strangers. After all, she'd broke up with him. She could still give him the silent treatment. As it was Diago did all the talking. He got drinks for them.

When Char turned to Sally to hand baby Ava to her, there was a strange look on Sally's face. Char felt certain that Sally knew Jared, too.
