As she feared the look Jess's mother gave her was judgemental. Roxy hated that her father couldn't stay out of her life. He had lost any right to affect her life years ago. It didn't matter that she had spent years proving herself. All that mattered was what her well respected father said. She pushed her frustration and anger to the back of her mind. They wouldn't accomplish anything.[color=blue]"What did he tell you?" [/color]She asked as soon as they ended the room.[color=blue]"Was it the story about me getting into fights?"[/color] Which was just true enough that people believed it without thinking. Especially when they saw her leathers or her knives. [color=blue]"Or was it the one about me sneaking out and stealing?"[/color] Again technically true but mot because she had been a troubled teen. [color=blue]"I know sleeping with his partner." [/color]That would be the perfect story to tell after their weekend at her father's. Again it was true enough that people would buy it.
