Summary-What happened the morning after.

When my alarm clock went off that morning, I automatically knew something was wrong. My reporter instincts were already developing when I was five.

As I tugged on the jeans my Mom had gotten for me that weekend, something bad smelling reached my nose. I hurried downstairs to make sure Mom and Dad were ok.



Dad was making waffles. Dad never cooked anything.



"Mommy?" I called out, wondering what tragedy could have struck our household that made my Dad want to do the cooking.



"Oh, honey." My Dad turned around and I saw red around his eyes.



"Daddy? Where's Mommy?" I asked, pulling myself up on a stool as he handed me a paper plate.



My Dad just kind of smiled and shook his head.



"These are good waffles, Daddy." That was all I could think to say. They really weren't that good, but at least he smiled.
