“Daddy when is mummy coming back?”
“Oh Dali she’s busy.” my father said as he knelt down on the white tiled floor of the bathroom as my small frame sat in the bathtub with soap in my hair.
“Daddy why do you cry at night?” I asked as I rested my chin on the edge of the bathtub.
“I cry because I love you so much and because I love your mum so much.” my dad said as he gave me a half smile.
He grabbed the body wash and applied a small amount on the loofah. He dunked the loufa in the water so it could sud up. The aroma of cherry blossom trickling up my nose as I tilted my head back showing my small neck so he could lather it up with soap. He ran the loofah on my neck and the back of my neck, sudding my neck up.
“I’m home sweetie!” a sweet angelic voice rang through the room as I saw a slim figure by the doorway.
Her honey brown hair draping over her shoulders framing her face. Her soft caramel skin complementing her hair colour perfect. Her smile lighting up the room as her dimples were deep and prominent. Her full heart shaped lips curled up showing her pearly whites.
“Mummy!” I screamed as I stood up in the bathtub with my arms stretched out as I was covered in suds.
I could hear my dad’s laughter fill the room as my mum approached me. She got close enough with her arms extended to me. I tried to wrap my arms around her but I wasn’t clinging on. I wasn’t clinging on to anything. I was trying to grasp my mum but instead I wasn’t, I was only grasping air.
The earsplitting noise of my alarm clock waking me from my dream. I slowly opened my eye to see I was back in my bedroom. I peeked at my clock for it to read 6:17. My eyes pierced open as I realized I was late. I had class and I was already running late.
I hit the snooze button. I stood up from my bed and hurried over to the bathroom. I needed to shower and get ready for school. I ran in the bathroom turning the knob so the water could run as I peeled off the article of clothing.
I hopped in the shower and stood under the running hot water. The hot water hitting my skin relaxing all my muscles. I stood there eyes closed as my hair slowly became drenched. I grabbed the shampoo and squirted a small amount in my palm. I lathered it in my hair as the water continued to keep me calm.
I finished up in the shower and grabbed my towel from the rack. I wrapped it around my small frame as I grabbed another towel to wrap my hair. I walked over to the mirror and began to brush the red locks, I walked over to my bed and began to put my uniform on.
I began to walk over to my closet to look for my school shoes. I didn’t see them in the closet. Where else could they be? I quickly thought of my nanny, Lily. She has to know where they’re at.
“Lily!" I shouted more like a whine.
“Where are my shoes?” I hollered again as I collected my books and bag to make my downstairs.
