Last night daddy tucked me into bed. Mommy and Elin didn't talk to me at all yesterday.

"Dee wake up! You're gonna be late for school!" Johnson shouted.

I woke up and looked at him. I go to school?

"School?" I asked him.

"Yes now get up."

I sat up and just looked at him. He had a backpack on.

"Do you also go to school?" I asked him.

"Yes just in a lower grade than you."

"Lower grade?" I asked him. I had no idea what he was talking about.

"Are you okay Dee?" He asked me.

I nodded my head, "I'm fine, just hungry. Where's daddy?"

"He's in his bedroom. Now get up or we'll leave you behind." He said smiling

I looked at him closely because one of his teeth were missing.

"Where is your tooth, it's not there?!" I was worried.

"It fell out, don't you remember?"

I shook my head.

Daddy walked into the room and I smiled happily.

"Hey Dee. Hey JJ." He said. We both greeted him.

"Dad is Dee okay?" Johnson said. He was playing with his backpack straps.

Daddy went on his knee and was face to face with Johnson.

"She's not doing well JJ. She's behaving like a child because I believe that she experienced some type of trauma wherever she was these past few days." He explained.

Johnson nodded, "So she's not her old self?"

"No so I need you to be patient with her okay?"

"Okay. You're like a little sister." Johnson said to me and I smiled.

Daddy laughed and then he looked at me.

"Do you want some pancakes?"

I nodded my head. "Yes please."

"Let's go make some pancakes." He said getting up. I walked to him and held his hand.

"Dad if Delilah isn't going to school, can I stay too?"

Daddy laughed then shook JJ's hair. "Nope you gotta get your ass to school buddy."

"Please dad." Johnson begged.

Daddy let out air, "Okay you can stay home."

Johnson smiled then held my hand. I looked down at him then smiled. He likes me more than mommy and Elin.
