T: so how old is he?
Ta: just one year older.
T: he's 18?
Ta: well technically 18/² but doesn't matter.
T: Yes it does you're a minor.
Ta: but he's just one year older!
T: I'm not having this conversation right now, what do you want to eat?
Ta: idk, something simple?
T: Okay, a tosti it is.
They had dinner and after dinner Tim asked Tamara some more questions about "the boy".
T: so what's his name?
Ta: aaahhg dadd, I am 17 now, I am interested in boys and stuff.
T: Yeah but you're still 13 in my eyes. (just imagine that Lucy and Tim found her when she was 13 and Lucy and Tim were married)
Ta: I know, but can you please give me some space to think about my feelings to him?
T: sure but don't do anything stupid.
Ta: I won't dad.
T: I know.
Ta: well I'm going to bed it's getting late.
T: Okay good night, princess.
Ta: good night dad.
Tamara went to her room and texted Lucas.
The chat:
Ta: hey, I'm sorry I didn't let you know I wasn't coming. I'm sorry.
Lu: don't worry about it. See you tomorrow in Spanish?
Ta: yup, goodnight.
Lu: goodnight <3
End of the chat.
The butterflies Tamara felt with this message were to scream about. Tamara got ready for bed and went to sleep.
Tim on the other hand couldn't face it.
"Tamara having/getting a boyfriend? No absolutely not."
"Tamara moving out, or getting married? Hopefully not."
Tamara being happy? That's all he wants."
Tim looked how late it was 1am. He stood up and went to the kitchen to grab a glass of water that's when he misses Lucy. What would she say? But importantly, what do I say? Tim got lost in his mind again, until Tamara stood in front of him.
T: What are you doing here?
Ta: grabbing a glass of water, what are you doing here?
T: I can't sleep.
Ta: something on your mind?
T: no, nothing important.
Ta: hey erm, I talked to Lucas and he didn't want to go on the date anymore.
T: maybe another time?
Ta: maybe. Go get some sleep your on metro tomorrow.
T: wish I could, it's just so hard. Losing my wife, my daughter who likes boys.
Ta: dad, I know this is hard for you especially without her, but one day I'll get married and you walk me down the aisle, and there's gonna be a chair for mom.
T: I know... well you go back to bed and I will too.
Ta: deal.
They hugged each other and went to bed. When Tim got in bed all he could think about was what Tamara said: "dad, I know this is hard for you especially without her, but one day I'll get married and you walk me down the aisle, and there's gonna be a chair for mom." The chair for Lucy?
A few moments later Tim finally fell asleep but not for long.

Tim's pov:

My alarm went of 5:30am, my head hurts and it felt like I didn't sleep for years. I got up and went to the bathroom to get myself ready for the day, today I had an assignment with METRO I wanted to call in sick but as a Sargent I couldn't. After I got myself ready I went to Tamaras room to wake her up.

Normal pov:

Tim woke up Tamara and made her breakfast.
Ta: Goodmorning
T: goodmorning, did you sleep well?
Ta: not really..
T: how come?
Ta: I couldn't sleep I got the dream about mom again.
T: That's normal, but it will go away.
Tamara got distracted by a message she got.

The message:
Lu: morning, princess, how did you sleep? <3
Ta: not well, you?
Lu: my day didn't start well but you made it a little better<3
Ta: oh really?
Lu: Yes.
Ta: I have to go now my dad is staring me to death.
Lu: see you in class<3
Ta: see ya.
End chat

T: so?
Ta: I'm sorry...
T: do you take the bus home or do I pick you up?
Ta: can you pick me up please? Maybe we can go to the mall afterwards?
T: I don't know I promised Angela that I would babysit on her kids.
Ta: oh uhm is it okay if I hang with some friends then?
T: sure but no one in the house, or bedroom.
Ta: Dadddd!!! I was planning the movies.
T: Okay, well I got to go I'll pick you up around 3pm, love you.
Ta: I love you to dad, see you after school.
Tim left and soon after Tamara left as well, she closed the door behind her and walked to her school on the way to school she saw Katie?
