Dear Gift (Ryle Kincaid's POV)

Ryle

"When you make a mistake, there are only three things you should ever do about it: admit it, learn from it and don't repeat it. By Paul Bear Bryant ". I stare at this quote like it was meant to pop on online page; reminding of something I hate to admit how much I fear it. My anger.

That problem that cost me my wife aka ex-wife and will soon cost my daughter if I don't overcome it. I close my laptop and stare at the window remembering why my daughter isn't in my arms in her bed that I designed for her in my apartment "no overnights until she starts talking “why? I wish I didn't ask "So she can tell me if something happen" Boom.

Those were Lily's words when I asked for my daughter Emerson to sleep in my house. Deep down I know I deserved it I deserve more after my rubbish actions when I found out she started dating. But I couldn't bring myself to admit it.
I... I should have tried harder; I should have been able to change for her I should have done so much. But I still have one girl in this life that I will never bring myself to lose MY DAUGHTER, and I will make I represent for her the man she deserves. Not Me

My everyday thoughts words I repeat every day for me to stay awake.
The ringing of my phone dragon me out of my thoughts, I look at my phone Lily. I'm taking my princess to the zoo today and I was waiting on her mother's call to go get her. Can my day get any better. She is four years old she is started talking, I didn't ask Lily for Emerson to sleep at my house not because I fear rejection but because I still don't trust myself.

I answered the phone "Hello" she says awkwardly she is still not comfortable talking to me can't blame her I never will. Thank God she still looks at me. "Good morning Lily is Emerson ready to go?"
"Yes, she is very excited, she is waiting for you and make sure to compliment her dress when get here she didn’t want to wear it until you take her out." The ice broke. My princess she is so cute.
"Noted" I said with a laugh "I'll be near the shop in five."

I open the door leaving my apartment seeing Marshall in the hallway talking on the phone I patted on his shoulder informing I'm leaving he stops me with his.
He closes his phone call.
"To remind to night there's an event your sister is having. She is inviting the entire building and everyone we know for thanksgiving " typical Alyssa. Her friend in college in another words, one of her rivals threw a Christmas ball last year making my little sister as usual inferior, she decided to do something bigger.

"Don't worry I'm not planning on getting myself scolded my Alyssa."
He laughs as we say goodbye never been so thankful for a friend like Marshall. After everything he still have faith in me or what's left of me.
Walking outside the building to the garage, as I was taking my car out a crazy driver bumps into the back of my car. Fuck. Now is not the right time for this. 
Some chick gets out of the car moving towards me with a furious face "Are you freaking blind?!"
