Amelia came back to her home. She rung the bell and waited outside. The door opened and an old lady of 60 – 65 years of age was revealed.

"Hey sweetie, how was your first day of your new session?"

"It was good." She replied.

"Any change?"

"Yeah...got some new friends, I guess."

"That's really great."

"Thanks grandma. Where's grandpa? "

"He went out for groceries. Go and get fresh I am making your favourites."

Amelia smiled lightly and left for her room. Her grandparents were always there in her tough times. She is glad that she got someone like that.

When she went inside her room her eyes got stuck onto a portrait.

Flashback

'hehe...ring-a-ring--a –roses ... A pocket full of poises...A tissue, A tissue...We all fall downnnn...hahah.'

A little girl of 6 years old was playing with a young aged man. Both of them were laughing heartedly. The man started tickling the little girl, while laying her down on the ground.

'DADDYY STOPPP..HAHA..DADDYYYYY STOP TICKWING MEEE...HEHEE.'

'no I won't baby girl.'

'NUUUUU DADDYYYYYY. MOMMYYYY HEWPP..DADDY TICKWING MEEE..HEHE..MOMMYY.'

The man stopped and took his daughter on his lap and looked at her adoringly.

'My baby girl is growing so fast.'

The little girl giggled and kissed her father's cheek. 'But daddy you aways cawl me babygurl. Then I am still your baby right daddy.'

'Yes baby, you are my baby.' The man kissed his daughter forehead lovingly. 'I love you so much princess.'

'I love you to daddy, I love you this much.' She extended her hand and showed her love to him. The man pecked her daughter's lips softy. The little giggled and closed her adorable eyes.

'All attention is for daddy only right?' A woman's voice was heard.

The little girl snapped her head towards the voice. 'MOMMYYY.' 'MAMMA MAMMA MAMMAAAA.'

The man and the woman laughed at her antics.

'Mamma is here.' The man shouted childishly looking at his daughter. The girl giggled and spread her arms towards her mother.

The woman took her in her arms and kissed her forehead. 'Was my cutiepie having fun with papa?' the little girl nodded.

The woman sat beside her husband with her in the arms and pecked his lips. 'Hey' the man said.

'Hey.'

'My daddy.' The little girl shouted. 'U can't kwiss my daddy.' She went to her father's lap and hugged him tightly.

The woman faked gasped and said, 'But he is mine. I got him first. U can't take him away from me.'

'NUUU, He is mine.' The man laughed and hugged his daughter tightly.

'I am all yours baby girl.' The man whispered. 'But I am mommy's too.'

The girl pouted her lips. 'No you are mine.' She snuggled close to her father's chest.

The young couple chuckled. 'Ok daddy is yours.' The woman said. 'Now show your beautiful smile.'

The girl instantly looked up at them and smiled brightly showing her baby teeth. The man took a picture of them as a family photo.

The woman rested her head on her husband's chest and whispered, 'I love you two so much.' She hugged her husband and her child.

'I love you guys too.' The man mumbled and kissed their head and hugged them.

The child closed her eyes and rested her head on his chest...

Present

"Amelia..."

"Amy...darling, what's wrong? Why are you crying?" Amelia snapped out of her dreams.

"Huh?"

"What's wrong? Why are you crying?" Her grandma asked softly.

Amelia touched her cheeks and saw water. "Nothing. Why are you up here? It's not good for you to walk so much."

"Sweetheart I was calling you for so long, you weren't replying so I came up here."

"Oh, umm..you go I am coming."

"Ok come fast. Don't make me wait for you and grandpa has come back." She left after saying.

Amelia stood there for few seconds and went towards washroom and got freshen up. She took the family photo in her hands and traced her fingers on the young couple.

After eating Amelia came back to her room sat on her bed and looked outside watching the sunset. Suddenly something strikes her mind. She took out her drawing book and colours. She was looking outside and painting the beautiful view. Mixing different colours. She wet the paper with water and spread the blue colour for the sky and mixed it with red. She completed the painting and left it on her study table to dry it. She was satisfied with her painting. A beautiful sunset from her room.

After painting Amelia lied down on her bed staring up at the ceiling, thinking about her fast life

After painting Amelia lied down on her bed staring up at the ceiling, thinking about her fast life. How her life would have been if they were here.

She took the family photo, staring at it. Her eyes became teary. She closed her eyes and kissed the photo and kept it above her heart.

'Mom..dad..'
