Your daughter performs at a concert to remember him

Niall died exactly a week ago. He died in a car crash, but surprisingly had no external injurys or bruising just internal injurys.

His funeral is tomorrow and today Liam, Louis an Harry are having a concert to remember Niall.
Mine and Niall's eldest child, our 13 year old daughter Aaliyah is going to sing a song for Niall and while she is singing there will be a slideshow of family photos of her, me, Niall and our other two children, the 6 year old twins Ethan and Grace.

"You ready?" I asked Aaliyah and she nodded smiling sadly. Aaliyah had been very quiet since she found out about Niall. She was a massive daddy's girl, exactly like Niall ,looks and personality. They where always together, laughing and goofing around.

"Now it's time to invite Niall's little girl Aaliyah to the stage to sing a song to remember him" Liam said into the microphone and sat on the steps at the back of the stage with the boys.

Aaliyah walked out on to the stage and stood in front of the microphone stand. "I love you and miss you daddy" she whispered.

"Oh thinkin' about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothin' can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more
Baby, you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven..." she sang.

She was about to sing the next line but she burst out crying.

Aaliyah's POV

Just as I was about to sing the next line I saw a picture of me and my dad, it was taken just before he left, the last time I saw him. I broke down in tears.

"I..I'm sorry!" I cried. Many fans where crying.
The boys came to me and hugged him.
"I miss him so much! I need him! I can't live without him!" I cried into Liam's chest.

I was now at home, looking through a scale book I made with my dad, it had pictures of us in it. I decided to write in my diary, a letter to my dad.

Dear daddy,

I miss you daddy, it's only been a week but I can't live without you. You're the most important person to me. I loved you so much! I still do love you!

I don't know how I'm going to live without you, you're not going to be at my football games cheering me on, you're not going to cheer me up when I'm said with one of your stupid jokes from uncle Harry, you aren't going to be there when I get a boyfriend and you're not going to be there when I walk down the aisle.

Mum is a wreck , she tries not to show it, but she is so upset. I think she's depressed but she hasn't told me. She trying to stay strong for me, Ethan and Grace. Ethan and Grace don't really understand what death is but they know enough to know that you aren't coming back and that none of us will see you again.

I know you will hate me for this but I've been cutting, I'm sorry daddy I just can't help it. I also have thoughts, I want to be with you again daddy, I can't live without you.

Uncle Liam, Uncle Harry and Uncle Louis are upset, today they performed their last concert before the band ends to remember you. I sang 'heaven' tonight on stage at the O2 arena for you. I was so scared but I just imagined you telling me 'you'll do great princess, go and make me proud' and I did.
However, I broke down in the middle of the song when I saw the pictures of me and you before you left and got in a crash.

Grandma Maura and Grandpa Bobby aren't very good. Grandma Maura doesn't remind me of you anymore. She's no longer happy and carefree . She's always silent and if she speaks she seems depressed. Grandpa Bobby, he tries to get on with his life but as soon as he sees a picture of you, he breaks down in tears.

The fans are also upset. I keep crying myself to sleep watching remembrance videos about you.

I love you daddy, I hope I make you proud

Love from your little princess, Aaliyah
