Daddy's Girl: Cape High Book Five (Cape High Series 5)
"You're going to wind up in the cells and Aubrey will be heartbroken and everyone that actually likes you will be left behind! It's not like prison, Jack, it's not like you can go in and visit them or even get letters from them, or--or anything! I haven't seen or heard from my dad in six years, Jack. I can't visit him, and now everyone knows that I'm related to a--an out of control cape! They'll start watching me, they'll start wondering if I'm going to turn out like him, and if I am, they'll take me away."
"Zoe and Sunny are kids of a guy that was in the cells," he says.
"What?" I ask.
"Nico," he says, "he was in the cells for, what... some fifteen years? They told you that, didn't they?"
It's supposed to reassure me, right? But it's Nico we're talking about. I snort, shaking my head. "Nico... Nico isn't my dad," I say, turning away from him.
"Then who is your dad?" he asks.
"Mimic," I tell him. "My dad is Mimic."
I hear him take a step back, hear him suck in a short breath. "Oh," he says.
