"Hey Pumpkin, you stepped out?" Amari heard her father ask from the kitchen as soon as she stepped into the house. She knew he must have heard her come in even though she had tried to be really quiet. Sometimes she wondered if her dad had super powers, his senses were clearly heightened.
"Yeah… I had to stop by at Claire. We did an assignment together with Lucas. We have to turn it in tomorrow," Amari replied as she took off her jacket and placed it on one of the sofa's in the sitting room.
"Well you arrived just in time for dinner. Come here pumpkin," her father said and she started for the dinning room where he had just moved into from the kitchen. He was laying out dinner on the table.
"Chicken Tacos! I love it!" she exclaimed as she took her seat and picked up her cutleries in excitement. He smiled as he paused to watch her.
"So, you are feeling better?" he asked.
