It was finally my day off. A day where I can just relax and be with my family, keeping them safe.

Hailey and I decided to take Daisy to the park. Although I was nervous to leave the house because I didn't want her stalking us, I was at least happy we were in public and with other poeple. So if she tried to attack us or anything, there are people around us that can stop her from doing so.

"Look at the duckies!" Hailey beamed with excitement, pointing at a pond where a mother duck and her babies were swimming along the water. Daisy looks over smiling with her toothless grin.

I slowly blink a few times as I haven't slept much this past week.

"You okay babe?" Hailey says and I looked at her with my tired eyes.

"Yeah I'm fine," I assure her and she looks down at Daisy who had a teething toy in her mouth.

"Just tired," I say and she looks back at me.

"I can tell," she says and I wrap my arm around her as we sat on the grass looking at the pond.

"What's keeping you up at night?" She asks me and I didn't know what to say.

I can not tell her the truth, so I quickly come up with a lie.

"You wanna know what's really keeping me up at night?" I say and she looked at me worried.

"What?" She says and I tell her, "I've been having horrible migraines at night."

She told me, "I can give you a head massage tonight if you need," she says and I nod my head.

"I would love that," I say giving her a kiss and she rests her head on my shoulder.

I tried to take in this moment as I'm worried some day it will become a memory I'll cry about.

I look around us, and I see someone in the distance behind some trees. I look closer and see a camera in their hands, making me go pale.

She knows where we are and now she's taking pictures of us.

Why the fuck is she taking pictures of us.

I wanted to stand up and get that camera out of her fucking hands.

I turn so my back was facing the camera to cover Hailey and the baby. I don't know what the fuck she's going to do with these pictures. And frankly, I'm scared to find out.

Hailey turns, facing me as she let Daisy down on her back, laying on the blanket that covered the grass.

"Hi princess," I say tickling her feet and she kicked as she giggled.

Hailey looks down at her, floating a toy above her, shaking it so it rattles. Daisy puts her arms up, trying to reach for it making us both smile.

I look to my right as I see her walking in the distance with the camera still in her hands.

I quickly take my jacket off, and I pretend to cover her. I then take it off her as I played peek a boo with her.

"Where'd Daisy go?" I say as I covered her and I lift up the jacket.

"There you are!" I say making her laugh and I look to the right, I lost sight of her.

I wrap her in the jacket, and I pick her up, putting her over my shoulder.

"You don't want to have her play on the slides?" I suggest so we were in a more crowded area where she can't so easily take pictures of us.

"Yeah, we can do that," Hailey replies standing up and collecting the blanket, stuffing it inside a backpack she had for the baby's things.
