Dec's Daughter 2

A Day Full of Surprises (2020)

Charlie sat on her bed, she hadn't been in her room a lot because of the virus. She had been staying around Stephen's but now she had been tested for the virus and she didn't have it so she was free to be with her dad, Ali and Isla. Rocky had certainly missed her as he would always come up to her for lots of cuddles. She was picking clothes up off the floor when Dec entered and smiled at his daughter.

Dec" Having a tidy?"

Charlie" Yeah I am, just putting away a few bits"

Dec" I see you are reading our book, do you like it?"

Dec spies the book on the nightstand.

Charlie" Yeah I've not got that far in yet but I'm loving it so far"

Dec*smiles* Good, you are the first person to read it other than us"

Charlie" Really?"

Dec" Yeah I mean Ant was like you have got to give one to Charlie or Little D as he calls you"

Charlie*smiles* Awww, he loves calling me Little D"

Dec" I know, I like it too, been calling you that since you were little"

Charlie" Yeah I guess it just kind of stuck, I wonder what he would call Isla"

Dec" What about Little D 2?"

Charlie" Or Littler D"

Dec*laughs* Yeah that's a good one"

Dec sat down on the bed and smiled.

Dec" Come here, come give your ole dad a cuddle"

Charlie smiles as she pulls her dad in for a cuddle.

Charlie" I missed living here so much in lockdown, I just missed you, Ali, Isla and Rocky"

Dec" Well I missed you too, we all did so happy we can all be together again now"

Charlie" Oh the masks came the other day that I ordered off Etsy"

Dec" Ooo you will have to show me I still got the ones you got me for Fathers Day"

Charlie*remembers* Oh yeah, well the government has changed it all now haven't they, it's got have three layers and it's got to have a filter in it"

Dec*nods*, To be honest, I don't think even the government knows what they are doing"

Charlie*shakes her head* Yeah I think they are just trying to do their best aren't they"

Dec" Yeah, it's all new to them, so show me these masks"

Charlie gets up to get them pulling them from the bedside table.

Charlie" I got you another golfing one, Ali a one with flowers on it and myself a Harry Potter one"

Dec" Oh these are nice, I love mine"

Charlie" I thought you might, I did get double by accident so I don't know if Ant wants one"

Dec" He might do, I think he wants to go out today so maybe he would like it"

Charlie" Can I ask Stephen to come?"

Dec*smiles* if he wants to come and he is not busy"

Charlie" He messaged me last night saying he misses me living with him"

Dec" Oh"

Charlie*smiles* Bless him, I mean I was living with him at the start of lockdown that's a long time"
