Daniel's POV
Flashback.
"Daddy, do you promise that you will stay with us forever and ever?" My daughter asks.
"What do you mean Princess?" I ask, cupping her delicate cheeks into the palm of my hands smiling.
It was a warm Tuesday and I was hanging out with my daughter in the palace garden.
"I mean to say, I overheard momma talk about us going away." She explains. "And I wanted to know that we will not leave without you right?"
"When did she say that?" I pull her close, my expression changing.
"Yesterday. She said I must not tell you and that she was gonna give me nice sweets when we leave." She continues.
I pick her up and smile trying not to alarm her.
"Do you want to leave daddy all alone here?" I ask instead, playing with her cheeks.
"No...." She giggles.
"Then I promise," I hold out my pinkie, and she immediately intertwin it with her smaller one, "So long as you want me to, I travel with you where you go." I kiss my daughter on her forehead.
