My Daughter and Me (Luke Brooks

Father and daughter

"CASEY I NEED TO TALK TO YOU" i shouted up the stairs

She came running down ,i realised she never smiles ,i wanted to know why she didnt and why she didnt have any friends is it because of her mum surely she wouldnt have told people at school she didnt know her mum ? was i not doing my job properly

"What dad" she moaned

"Your school called me into for a meeting " i explained

"About what"she looked shocked

"Your not happy are you "
i felt tears rush from my eyes as i looked at my whloe world ,ive mad this beautiful human being and now shes not happy shes not having the best life possible

"I have never been happy why ask now " she cried

I walked up and give her the biggest hug i just stood holding her in my arms ,the person i loved the most,did i damage her i was suppose to protect her now I've failed her like my dad failed me things have never been easy for us,I've never found love,had more children maybe she just needed a stable family what if I'm not enough for her anymore

"I love you dad" she cried

Words id been dying to hear for years

"I love you too darling"

"Isnt it yours and uncle jai's birthday bash tonight" she asked

"Yes" i said as my phone went off
Text from beau

Oi you dickhead you coming out tonight then when was the last time your dick went up ?when you and Hannah conceived Casey
I chucked to the text but it hurt hannah wasn't around.

She left hours after Casey was born never heard from her since don't know how she could leave our new born daughter but she did,she left me to bring up our daughter I've been trying to find her for years but we were never together when she got pregnant it was a one night stand like most 17 year old boys do she sounded so positive about the pregnancy

I didn't know how to feel about Casey and whats been going on at school did she really not have friends i don't understand why shes so miserable, did she hate me ,did she not know how to make friends so many thoughts went though my head

I was snapped back into reality when Casey asked me the question i was dreading...
