Bond
Mary B. Moore - 2021
I’m just me. Opening Klein’s with my brother, Canon, was meant to be our step in our own direction. We proudly injected our Jamaican and German heritage into the food, but the rest was just us. I still wanted to be the laid-back guy I’d been before, but that wasn’t conducive with being a business owner. And then along came Heidi. If I hadn’t been in that day, I never would have met her. Now I can’t stop seeing her and wanting to find out more about her. My past scares her and makes her think I’m not in this for the long run, but I’ve never been more serious in my life.HeidiLife as a single mom isn’t easy. Sure, I’ve got other friends who are single parents, but running a business with a toddler requires navigational skills I haven’t quite finessed yet. The last thing I needed was Bond damn Klein steamrolling into my life. Initially, it’s easy to say no to him because our personalities clash, but then I saw another side of him, and it ruined me. I want to stick to my path and be good, but being bad has never felt so right. That counts still, though, right?
