Rough Patch

-One Month Later-

"Daddy? Where's mommy?"
Chris flinched out of his morning trance and glanced over at Christa who sat across from him at the breakfast table.
"She's in bed again sweetie" he said tying not to sound sorrowful.
"Should we go wake her?"
"No, she isn't tired honey, she's just not feeling like herself at the moment okay?"
"Is she sick?"
"What? No- look you wouldn't understand can you stop with the questions?" He said getting annoyed.
Crystal looked down and finished her cereal.
He sighed, running his hands across his tired face.
"I'm sorry, I've not slept this last month okay? neither has Emily actually. Things are just not all sunshine and daisies at the moment, Emily is just needing time and I do too."
"I Haven't seen Emily In a week and a half"
"I know, maybe if I check in her you can go in and see her okay?"
"Okay, so can we play together today instead?" She smiled.
"Baby, you know I have studio work, okay maybe another time."
She looked down sadly,
"Be good okay? You know where the snacks are okay? And no answering the door to strangers. I'll be back tonight I'll bring home takeout" he kissed the stop of her head and left for the door.
The sound of the door slamming echoed the whole house.
The house had been silent for weeks on end.
Emily stayed in her room. Crystal totally oblivious to what was the matter with Emily.
The wedding was postponed to when the time felt right.
Emily had sunken into a depression where she could barely leave her room.
She pleaded to Chris not to let the little one see.
So it's been kept that way.
Chris was barely in the house.
He was too stressed and too much of a workaholic to not stay at home.
Which leaves crystal by herself everyday.
Crystal was just as sad as Emily was.
She wasted Chris to be there but she wasn't.

-Crystals POV-

I stared blankly at the Television.
Watching the same episodes of the same cartoons they air on the same time everyweek day.
Daytime television is the worst.
I hugged my plush toy and held it tight.
I lay on the sofa and made my teddy bear lay down like it was hugging me.
I wish teddy was real. I've been lonely all my life but it's worse when you know that your surrounded by people you really love.
There was a knock at the door,
I peeped my head through hallway to notice that it was Ghost.
I opened it up.
"Ghost?"
"Hey Christa is Chris home?"
"I thought you were at the studio today?" She frowned.
"What no of course not, is Chris here?" He smiled looking in the hallway.
"No, he's at the studio"
"Well I dunno why, it's our day off today" he said innocently.
I bit the inside of my mouth as I tried holding back the tears.
"Hey  darling, are you okay?"
I nodded.
"Okay here's my number if you need anything if you don't know how to work the house number. Tell Emily I said hello!" He smiled waving as he got into his car.
I shut the door.
Of course he lied.
He wouldn't want to be with me all day.
I began to cry silently.
I curled up and sobbed.
Why won't my dad like me?
