Danielle's P.O.V

"Hey daddy what's up?" I asked walking into his office

"Danielle sit down please" He pointed towards the leather chair in front of his desk and sighed

"What's wrong dad?" I knew I wasn't in trouble cause I haven't done anything wrong so something had to be bothering him

"You know how I've been going to Dallas a lot lately and it hasn't just been for games or practice" I nodded and he continued "well there's a reason for that being" he sighed once more

"Dad what's going on everything's okay right?" Now is when I'm starting to panic

"No Danielle" he paused and rubbed his face with his hands "Your mother wants custody" My heart stopped but just for a second. Then it all and hurtling towards me

"What? what do you mean she wants custody? Of who? Why? I don't understand" everything was just coming out of my mouth. It's times like this that I don't have a filter

"Calm down just listen to me" he continued "She went to court and filed papers saying she wants custody back and..." he sighed then scratches his chin

"But dad I'm turning 18 in a couple months, so is Brianna"

"I know, she's crazy but since your turning 18 in a couple months I want to ask you an important question" he said looking at the wall behind me

"Dad look at me" I demanded and once he looked me in the eyes I continued "whatever you have to ask me I know it can't be that bad" I laughed lightly and when I saw he couldn't even smile at me I knew this was serious

"Dad what is it?" I asked in anticipation

"Danielle" he sighed "when you turn 18 I want to put in my will that..." he pulled at the roots of his hair and I saw a small clump come out of his head. I gasped and he looked up, then saw the hair

"Sorry I've been really stressed, you know how it is" he faintly smiled but I didn't return it

"Dad tell me what's going on" I demanded

"Okay I'm just going to get it over with" he sighed once more "When you turn 18 I want to put you as..."

"As what dad, just tell me" I groaned loudly in annoyance

"As the legal guardian of Michelle and Nicolas" he got it at out

I couldn't speak, to some people, they think it's not a big deal but to me this is a big deal she's only 12 right now. I can't raise a 12 year old.

"But why?" I questioned in a small whisper

"Because in case anything happens to me I want you to be there legal guardian not your mother, all she does these day is go out to drink and party she's not fit to be a mother again" he sounded agitated and furious so I grabbed his hand and squeezed it lightly

"But dad nothings going to happen to you right?" I asked whispering again

"Danielle..."

"What dad, you know you can tell me anything" I squeezed his hand a little harder

There's been a handful of times I've seen my dad cry and I usually took it well an sat there to comfort him but this time it was different

As I saw my dad breakdown onto his desk, I got up and went to the side he was sitting on and hugged him. tears slipped out of my closed eyes and I felt my heart break as I felt my dad shiver and sob into my arms. I whispered that everything was going to be okay and that it was fine but what I didn't know was that everything was the opposite of alright and okay.
