It was 25th of December 2022. A small girl lay on her fathers lap, snuggled in tight to his body as he held her tight with his frail arms. The room was cold and he could feel the child shivering. Just like her not to make a fuss, he thought as he wrapped a blanket around the both of them.

'Hey baby, don't be sad, c'mon, ill tell you a story.' He tried. The child looked up at him and smiled slightly, she seemed to consider the offer for a moment before her smirk grew a bit more and she spoke.

'As long as it's the one about how you and dad met' she giggled as her father made a shocked expression and shook his head wildly in a mock refusal. She poked his nose once, stopping the movement of his head, and then continually poked him in the same spot, clearly testing his limits. All of a sudden his hands were on her tummy and she screamed and chuckled as he tickled her into surrender.

As silence fell between the pair, the girl's father picked her up and plopped her back on his lap securing them into the seat with a blanket. He brushed her hair softly out of her face prompting a low giggle.

'Right, you want that story now then?' The tired looking 6 year old suddenly woke up and started nodding profusely with a wide grin on her face.

'Where should i start honey?' he questioned.

'THE BEGGINGING SILLY!' she all but screamed, most probably waking up half the hospital. Always forget this girls capacity for enthusiasm, thought her father.


'It all began when my friend Tony wanted me to go shopping with him for a prom suit. I wasn't going to prom but I had a keen eye for fashion...back then. He begged me for days but I kept refusing cause I hated the mall...
