Lila checked her neckless and found two more wishes left, she was confused, didn't the wish for her father to hear her count? Maybe it didn't work? She spoke quietly into the night sky:
"D-dad can you hear me?"
Wind blew silently, making the trees rustle as she heard a calm hum.
"Yes, my child I can hear."
Lila's eye's widened, did that mean she had four wishes or did it... Her thoughts were interrupted by her dad's voice.
"My girl, I can see that your wish to see me has connected to the wish to hear and speak to me?"
Lila thought about it for a second and nodded, he must be correct, that would explain a lot, so she can talk to her dad's spirit now...That is actually cool. She thought for a few seconds, a smile crossed her face, she looked back up to the night sky.
"Dad...Watch me as my guardian angel as I sleep?"
He responds softly
"Always and forever"
She stood up and looked back up at the sky and smiled again waving her father goodbye, she walked to her car and drove off into the distant. She turned the radio on, changing the frequencies from news to other station, she grumbled under her breath as she couldn't find the frequency she was looking for, still she found it, frequency 78.5 her and her dad's favorite station, their favorite song starred playing, they would always dance to the song as he drives, they song was called 'Mocking bird'. Lila and her dad loved how it was talking about doing anything for a loved one.
his is way I love this station; this song reminds me of Dad so much... I wonder if he can hear me too, Dad?"
Silence fell upon the car. She wondered if that wish was only for a little while, maybe she can only talk to him at the hillside by the lake at night, that was where her and her father had always stay together talking at night about the future. Maybe that was her special place to talk to her dad know...That is actually heartwarming for her, she can't wait to go and talk to her father again tomorrow night, but for now she needs to sleep, she has to go and meet the college manager to get her uniform but for now, she has to get home and sleep, the drive wasn't long anyway it was 45 minutes at best and her new University should be the same amount of time to get there, she was so excited she could hardly wait.
She was jamming it out in her car listening to the songs on the radio, they had pretty good songs other than just 'Mocking bird' there was pretty great songs, and one they were playing tonight was pretty relatable...'Ghost' by Justin Bieber, Lila couldn't help but sing along very loudly "And if I can't be close to you, I'll settle for the ghost of you, I miss you more than life, I miss you more than life!" She sang very loudly, ironically that was literally what she was doing talking to the spirit of the dad, this song may be her second favorite song now.
Lucky her being able to talk to her father, God must have done this on purpose letting her dad's spirit talk to her, she'll definitely go to church more now.
