TIM POV: I look at the date of Faith's letter. It was three years ago, almost to the day. I run to the phone and try to dial Betty to make sure the kids are alright, but nobody picks up. I dial the girls cell phones. Audrey picks up.
"Hey dad!" She says, excited that I called
"Hey baby. How's everything going? Grandma treating you guys well?" I ask, relieved.
"Yeah. Did you get my message?" She asks
"I did honey. I can't do anything tonight, but how about I take you and your sisters out to lunch tomorrow? Does that sound good?" I say, walking back over to the breakfast bar where Carrie is just staring.
"Yep! That sounds great! Well, I'll see you soon!" She says.
"Love you."
"Love you too Dad. Bye."
She hangs up as I put the phone down on the counter.
"You alright?" Carrie asks.
"Yeah. I think I just need to talk for a bit. I just haven't talked to anybody about anything going on right now." I said putting my head in my hands. "Faith was the person that always could tell when I needed to talk, even if I couldn't tell myself." I added.
Carrie grabs ice cream from the freezer and two spoons.
"Alright, lets talk." She says and smiles at me.
