As brae sits as finishes her school work, I cook some dinner for us both.

She close her books and plops herself at the dinner plate, where I serve her a steaming bowl of spaghetti.

"Hey daddy, can we watch tv tonight?" She take a spoon full of the food but spits it back out because it was too hot. She pouts at the slight burn on her lip and I quickly grab a bag of frozen peas to put on it.

"Did I tell you It was hot?" I slightly laugh but brae dosnt budge from her angry look.

"So tell me, what movie is on tonight?" I ask her so I could get her to lighten up again.

Brae and I don't usually watch tv, but if one her favorite movies come on we would grab some blankets, popcorn and watch the movie just like in a gold class cinema. So that was what we planned to do.

"Well there is frozen as finding nemo but I want to watch finding nemo." She states as I sigh on relief. I did NOT want to hear 'let it go' ever again.

"Good decision" I reply "you go upstairs and get the blankets sorted and I will put some popcorn in the oven"

She squeals on delight, races up the stairs to switch the television on as take both plates and put them in the sink. I quickly put the kernels in the microwave, waiting for 1 minute.

I walk up to meet her with the hot popcorn in my hands. She grins and moves over to the right, just to make some extra room for me.

We snuggle up tight and watch the movie. The both of us had finished the popcorn so I waited for the ad break to bring it downstairs to wash. I come back up and I see my daughter memorized by the glowing screen.

"Daddy! Come look! You must go!" She looks up at me with her bright green eyes and pulls a toothy grin. My jaw drops as I see what's on the screen.

The bachelor

"Honey, you know that I can't do that" I sigh, instantly thinking about Chelsea.

"Why not, daddy?"

"I just cant, okay Brae! I'm not over you mother yet and don't think I ever will be!"

Brae pouts and her eyes begin to water up. She quickly looks down so o couldn't see her so upset.

"Brae....I'm sorry, I didn't mean to shout."

I get her trust again by kissing her forehead. I smile and hug her as she forgives me. Brae mightn't of said anything but for her, actions speak louder than words.

"You know what? Let's sign up" I grab my laptop from the coffee table and rest it on my lap, where Brae can see too.

I search up the show, clicking on registrations. Brae helps me answer some of the questions and we e-mail the questionnaire back to the producers who pick the other eligible men.

I shut the Latin and face Brae and began her to pre-warn that there is a large chance that I won't get the spot.

"Dad, I know. But whatever happens, happens and if you are chosen, it's meant to be. Goodnight."

I smile hearing what she just said. My little girl is getting so mature. I love her so so much.

"Goodnight, sweet pea"

I kiss her again as she plods into her bed, drifting off into a deep sleep.

I go to bed after with the same question replying in my mind.

Am I ready to move on?
