Love Triangle

Chapter 7 -Daddy & Daughter day out

The sun kissed my face through the window. Haa I was so tired I forgot to pull the curtains last night. Talking about yesterday, what a great fun did I have yesterday. I sat up and rubbed my face with my palm and smiled thinking about yesterday, suddenly I heard the door open slightly, I moved forward trying to see who was at the door, could'nt see until he walked in. Dad. What was he doing in my room at, I take a look at the clock with squinted eyes from the sun that was coming over my face. It was 9:15AM and dad was in my room? Yeah I know I am making a big deal out of it, but it never happened, Dad coming to my room at all forget at this time of the morning.

"Hey, good morning, Sugar" he greeted me with a smile on his face. I smile back " Morning, dad. What are you doing in my room tho?" I had to ask, it was rude but I want to know. Yeah I am happy and all but its just so sudden, too much for me to take it in. He had a frown on his forehead "Oh, so do you want me to leave, I am sorry I didnt know I wasnt allowed to come into my daughter's room without her permission" I sigh and reply back "Dad, you know thats not what I meant, its just that you have never been in my room before, and also at this time, seems very weird to me" I replied genuinely.

He nods his head and says "I know and I am trying to fix that, yesterday after meeting your broyfriend I realized how much less time I spend with you and your mom I am trying to make us a perfect family, like the others, so I thought maybe you and I should have a father daughter time today? If you are free, any plans with Liam, its okay we can go some other time" work,

I smiled at him, no way on this planet am I not gonna go with him, I would love to spend my time with him and know him more. "I would love to, Dad" I say to him and give him a hug "I love you" he rubs my back and says "I love you too, baby"

I get done with my morning routines and get dressed to finally have some father - daughter quality time. I look at myself one last time in the mirror and leave the room, Dad has already been dressed up and sitting on the couch. I look at him and walk towards his room. I need to speak to her.

I knock on the door, I hear a faint "come in" and walk in. She was reading a fashion magazine, she looks over the magazine and smiles "My beautifull Laila, you look really beautiful" I smile at her and thank her. I sit on the edge of her bed and scratch the back of my neck, she sees my uneasiness and asks me "Is something wrong?" I shake my head, she frowns and asks again "what is it then?" I finally ask her "Did you tell Dad about our talk that we had yesterday?"

She takes off her glasses and put her magazine away and looks at me "No,baby I have not said anything at all to him, I dont know how did he realize that he has to spend some time with his beautiful daughter, and I think its a great progress in him" I smile at her thinking finally my dreams are coming alive. I inwardly do the happy dance.

I get up from the bed and tell her "Okay Samantha I gotta go dad is waiting down" She smiles and nods her at me. I leave the room and walk down the stairs and see dad waiting for me at the lunch table.

He eyes me from top to bottom and says "So, beautiful" I blush a little and mouth a "Thank you" and then we step out of the door and walked towards our car. We sat ourselves in the car and drove off to I dont know where.

I broke the silence and spoke "So.. where are we off to, Dad?" I look for some CDs to play. There was all old collection of CDs here. ABBA, Rolling Stones, the beatles and many more. Dad always liked these three bands the most, when I was a kid he would always make me listen to them, my most favorite one was "The Dancing Queen" I just liked the tune of it and also I was put in a ballerina classes, but then I stopped when Dad told me the real truth about Mum's death

You can say that was the second trauma of my life, I had stopped socializing and just concentrated on studies, I pushed everyone away who ever loved me but then at one point I just got over it.
