Tonight is a night I won't forget. I walk Fluttershy into her new room. I had set up a bedroom for her in the guest room so that she could have privacy when she needs it. She climbs into the bed and crawls under the covers. I tuck her in and give her a hug.
"Goodnight, Fluttershy," I say.
"Goodnight daddy," she whispers as she falls asleep.
I don't know how I get to the dining room table but I sit there and think. Fluttershy had just called me daddy. It has only been a few weeks but she has already called me her parent.
I start wondering how will I treat this new name. Should I utilize its power? Should I help her prepare for her final days here?
No. No on both. I'll care for her like I am doing now. And her future? I can't tell her that she won't be here for long. It was hard enough dodging that when she found out about 'Fluttershy.'
I'll let her live life as if she'll be here until she dies. Until that day, I'll be her daddy.
