"What should I do with you today?" I reached up and pulled my hair up into a ponytail. I turned my head side to side to check it out. "Hm..." I released it. "Whatever." I brushed through it and left it down. I grabbed my backpack, my phone...
After dealing with my dad confronting me about his new lady in his life, I had went to bed. I had begged- well, whined for him to carry me to bed. After he rolled his eyes and teased me for the past several minutes, he swooped me in his arms and carried me to bed. I even whined for him to tuck me in. After heaving a sigh, he did. For some reason, I felt like a baby again. I wanted to him to parent me all over again.
"Just because I'm seeing someone, Poony, doesn't make you any different. You're always gonna be my little girl..." I grinned at him, but his face was completely stoned. My grin disappeared and I hid my nose under my cover. He continued. "But I don't want you feeling like one, Poony. You're sixteen. Keep acting like one. I won't ever forget you're my little girl nor my daughter so you don't have to..." He paused, looking for the right words. He tilted his head side to side. "...pretend to...be...small..." His eyebrows scrunched together as if he didn't know what he had said. "That wasn't the right word I was looking for..."
I laughed and reached out to pat his arm. "It's okay, Dad." I said, giggling. "I know what you mean." His eyes softened.
"Good, because I don't even what I meant so maybe later you can explain it to me."
