Daddy's Love

Chapter 34: 34 - Fixing Ana

Daddy places Ana on the changing table and goes to get the first aid box. Ana is crying so much.

"It's okay Ana. I know it hurts so bad. But I am with you. Ems with you." I try to comfort her. She just

keeps on crying.

Daddy comes and picks Ana up and gently opens her dress. She has scrapped both her knees and

palms. I flinch.

"hush Ana, don't cry. It's all going to be fine in a minute."

Daddy washes her hands and knees with water and she cries.

"Okay, baby, now I am going to clean the wounds with the antiseptic medicine. Be strong for me,

okay?" I tell Ana.

"Will it hurt?" She asks sniffling.

"It.... It will sting for two seconds but then it'll be all better, I promise." I kiss her forehead.

I quickly apply the liquid eliciting shrieks and a fresh set of tears from Ana. Then I bandage the wounds

while Carol and Ems try cheering up Ana.

I pick her up and put her in a fresh set of diapers and In Carol's dress, which is a size too big for her.

"All done, you are so brave Ana. You are all fine now, yes?" I rub her back and kiss her head and

bounce her in my arms. She stops crying.

"I missed you so much. Why you no love me anymore?" She whispers in my ear.

Before I know it, I am shedding tears. So much for being a Vampire. So much for being a daddy.

"Ana, I missed you more. And I can never ever not love you okay?" I tell her solemnly. Before she can

tell me something else that makes me cry like a baby in front of my littles, I tell her "Why don't you and

Carol snuggle on the sofa and watch a movie while I make you some popcorn and hot chocolate?" I

ask her.

"Yes daddy!" Carol squeals. It's been so long since I have seen her this happy.

"Daddy.... He will scold me for coming here." Ana tells me while I place her on the couch.

"I'd like to see him try." I tell her.

"Don't fight again, please." She says, her eyes glossing over.

"I won't." I kiss her forehead and leave to make them hot chocolate in Sippy cups.

The three of us are watching Harry Potter with pop corns and hot chocolate when the door bell rings.

We all stiffen. We instinctively know that it's Grey.

I give Ana's hand a squeeze and go to open the door. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

I cannot recognise the man in front of me. Grey, looks pale and sad. And like he has aged a thousand

years in the past few weeks.

"Uh… I've come to pick Ana up." He croaks, totally expressionless.

"She is inside." I tell him and walk inside so that he cannot refuse to come in.

I feel him walking behind me to the living room. As soon as Carol sees his she runs onto him and hugs

his legs.

"Uncle Christian! I missed you so much! You forgot me!!!" She shouts and starts crying. I see Grey

trying to hold it together and not react but five seconds later he is on his knees, hugging Carol,

shedding his own tears.

"Nor for a second Carol. Not for one damn second. I missed you so much too." Then I see him

whispering something to her and she grins. (he tells her that he got her note!) When will he stop

swearing in front of the girls?

I wonder what a monster I had become keeping people that love each other away for so long.

Grey suddenly seems to realise he is at my place. He gently holds Carol away from her and walks to

the couch to pick Ana up.

"Time to go home, Ana. You okay?"

"I don't want to. Please. " I hear her say.

He picks her up without saying anything and walks out.

"Let her stay. For the night At least." I tell him.

He walks away like I was not there at all. Ana looked liked she was about to cry. Carol already did start

crying.

Whose fault is all this? Mine.

I'll make it right.
