Mickey and Doreen stood side by side, watching the warehouse workers prepare products for shipping. With Doreen's emotional weight lifted, their conversation shifted to happier topics.
“I heard that Daria is heading the welcoming committee; she's going to be the star of White Eagle Academy,” Mickey said.
Doreen smiled softly with pride at her daughter's accomplishments. “She's a star wherever she goes. Remember how I was at her age? She definitely takes after her father.”
“Of course I remember when you were that age. How could I forget? You're just as beautiful now as you were then,” Mickey said with a wink.
Doreen released a soft chuckle. “Careful, Mickey, it sounds a lot like you're flirting with me.”
“Good,” he whispered. “because I am.”
Though they were both married and all hell would break loose if they were ever discovered, Doreen and Mickey were having an ongoing, casual affair.
If Anton ever found out, he'd probably kill them both, but Doreen didn't care about the consequences. Despite the significant age difference and friendship to her father, Doreen loved Mickey and would've happily married him if their circumstances had allowed it.
Of course, she'd never tell him that she loved him, but she felt that they understood each other.
“If you're up to it, we can go in the office for a while,” he said, his tone low and suggestive.
Before Doreen could answer, she spotted Tiny entering the building. “The Bootlicker is here,” she groaned.
Mickey's mood immediately shifted to annoyance. “What the fuck for?” He thought aloud as he headed towards Tiny.
“Mickey, the boss is furious; he wants to get rid of Greg Garrett,” Tiny began to explain as soon as they were together.
Mickey frowned and shook his head. “Then why the hell are you here? You should be trying to calm him down, not running to me!”
“He told me to come here and help,” Tiny said.
Doreen made her way up to them. “Go and see about my dad - they're almost done here anyway. Tiny can help them finish loading the trucks.”
After a brief nod to Doreen, Mickey set off back to Paradise Place.
