Chapter 43: the blame game

Waylen's POV

She frowned.

"Daddy, you are going off point again. Of course, I know you are my biological father and Xavier is older, of course he has to be king. Can you go back to telling me how amazing I am?"

I laughed out loud.

I laughed for a very long time and she laughed with me.

Then I stopped and looked at her, so you ever look at someone and realize you would do just about anything for them?

"You are the best part of me, Love. And my sadness has nothing to do with you. But I will work on it. It's not your job to take care of me, kiddo and I did come to your marathon for grandpa. I saw you win. I didn't say hello because I didn't want my sad to ruin your happy"

She placed her head on my shoulder and wrapped her hand around my arm.

"Your Sad can't ruin my happy because you are my Dad. There is no one I love more in the world. And I miss Miracle. I wish she would just come home"
