The wait was longer than expected, but Hope didn't even realize it. She was too busy playing with Momo. Though Momo was a small stuffed cat she meant the world to Hope. One time, Shiro made the mistake of putting Momo in the wash while Hope was asleep. Once Hope realized she wouldn't look or even talk to Shiro for a week even though she got her cat back a little bit later.Hope followed her parents to the table holding Momo close. It was rather loud in the restaurant. Hope could care less she was spending her day with her favorite people in the world nothing was going to pry her away from this. She sat in between her parents coloring the coloring sheet the waitress gave her.
"I like today!" Hope declared to the whole table. " I'm happy you get to stay with me all day and it's not just me and Momo." Hopes smile slowly started to drop. "When you aren't home I'm sad and me and Momo don't like it. I want you to stay with me every day." Hope began to break down crying into her hands. Adam and Shiro both shared a look of concern. What were they supposed to do? They couldn't just quit. "Love I know it's hard for you, but we can't just not work so we can get you all your toys and take you to lunch," Adam explained to her as easily as he could. "But I don't want that I-I want you." Tears streamed down Hope's face. "Sweetheart looks at me I know you want us home more often but there is nothing we can do about that right now so why don't we just enjoy the time we have together right now?"
Hope wiped the tears off her face looking up. The men felt their hearts breaking knowing that they failed to be there for their daughter, but they can't go back now all they can do is focus on the present and fix what they messed up.
Adam moved Hope to his lap hugging her. Wipe the tears and let me see your face pretty girl." She looked up and smiled softly at the compliment wildling the tears from her face.
"I know it's hard but you can do it I promise" Adam whispered to her making her smile even more.
The rest of the day was filled with happiness. Hope bought new dresses, toys, but most importantly she got to spend it with the most important people in her life.
As the day was winding down the family was sitting together on a picnic blanket eating the snacks they brought watching the sunset.
"Did you have fun, today love?" Shiro asked pushing the little flyaways Hope had behind her ear. Hope nodded excitedly.
"Today was the best day ever!" Hope beamed "I'm glad you had a good day love." Shiro chuckled.
Hope got up and started running around in the grass. Adam smiled watching her play. Shiro looked at him squeezing his hand. No matter what life has thrown at these two they've gotten to where they are and nothing is going to take that away.
