Chapter 050
Niklas' POV
I become motionless.
When I hear that voice, the ground, the trees, and the air all disappear.
Low. Be calm. So confident in itself.
"Wait, Niklas."
No.
Not him.
Not right now.
I clench my jaw.
I swear I can feel my nails digging into my flesh as my fingers clench into fists.
I can tell it's him without even turning around.
The jerk.
I give Jonas a quick look. He is motionless. Something directly behind me caught my attention.
I turn around.
There he is.
My dad.
Standing as if he has done nothing wrong. As if he's supposed to be here. He was dressed in the same pressed coat he wore to family gatherings every time. Still tidy. Smug as ever. I'm still acting.
I mutter, "You're showing some nerve up here."
He takes a step forward.
I take a step back
