          'Fearless'. I smiled by seeing the badge and said to myself "this is all very small and silly infront of my father's love.

           It's already 9:30 p.m and I am feeling so sleepy I lay on my bed and fast fell asleep. "Bruk Bruk Bruk" the time is 6:30 a.m I got down my bed, "I am hungry" went downstairs and into the kitchen.

           I was surprised to see my mom cooking. I sat down in my chair.

          "Mom! When did you come, How did you come, Where did you go????"

           "Sweetheart I came early in the morning around 5:30, I came by car"

           "Okay, where did you go"

           "I went out as I was having some important work"

           "What important work? Since my childhood you never had said me what is the 'Important work' you were going to?"

           "Honey! You will be devastated when I said you this"

           " Well than what is it ???"

           " Your aunt is admitted in hospital"

           "Aunt Kelly?? But why?"

          "Honey she met with an accident"

          "Is she okay now?? How could you not say me this"

          "Calm down, she is okay now today we both will go to see her"

          "Oh! Thank God,yes I am coming"

          I brushed my teeth, wore my dress, took the badge from the table and put in my pocket.

         "Bye! mom"

         "Bye! Honey"

          At school though I was nervous talking to Austin. I believed in myself and 'fearless' I overcame that. After few hours without any nervousness I talked to Austin. Evita was surprised to see me talking to Austin.

         "Very well done! Tess. You became normal, I mean no nervousness in your words can be sensed. I took a week to overcome this"

          "Yeah......I believe in myself and my dad's love for me, this all is nothing infront of my father's love"

           We hugged and we took our seats.

           Now it's lunch. I told Evita about aunt Kelly . She was sorry to hear that. Aunt Kelly is my godmother but she is more like my mother. Aunt Kelly and uncle Jason are really close to me. They had no children.

           Since my childhood they treated me like their own child. They bought me somany presents whenever I visited their home they were very pleased to have me. I shared my pains with aunt Kelly. She patiently listened and gave me some solutions.

            I really love them. They were very close to my father too. Uncle Jason says that my father had helped him a lot during his childhood and my father gave his side during the critical situations.

          When they got to know the death of my father they were really shocked and uncle Jason was in a shock for a Whole year. Aunt Kelly tried very hard to get him through the shock. Now Aunt Kelly is in hospital. I feel terrible. The tears rolled down my eyes as I was saying.

          "It's okay Tess, Aunt will be alright. Today you will meet her right?"

          "Yes today me and my mom will be going to the hospital"

            I didn't feel like eating my lunch. I closed my lunchbox. It's the home bell I went running to my house.

           "Mom I am back"

           "Welcome back Tess"

          "So are we leaving now??"

          "Yes, I booked a cab and we will be leaving when the cab arrives, wash your hands and face, wear a your gloves"

          "Yes mom, why gloves?"

          "Don't ask me why, Just do as I said!"

          "Yes mom, sorry"

          "Sorry Tess"

           The cab has arrived. We locked the doors and I was going to open the cab doors with my bare hand.

          "Tess I told you to wear your gloves not to put it in your pockets"

          "Sorry mom"

          I wore my gloves and sat in the cab we reached the hospital. My mom talked to the lady in the reception and said me the room number.

         I went running to the room. I was horrified to see aunt Kelly.

        "Mom! does this mean she is okay????" Bursting into tears.
