"Mommy!" Kayle stammered before I could close the dorr to let her sleep.

"Yes baby girl?"I was hoping she wouldn't ask if daddy was going to come home tonight. But 90% likely she would because that was on the lines of what she did every night.

"Does daddy still love me?" I slowly let my head flop down and closed my eyes.

"Baby girl, of corse he does!" I walked over to the side of the bed and sat down. She rolled over to face me. Her face gloom.

"Then why does he not come home and rock me to sleep or read me a bed time story?" I didn't know what to say. I was stuck.

"Baby, I don't know most of what your father does. But you need to know that mommy loves you so much! And that I would do anything for you! Anything at all!" I smiled at her, and she smiled back. "I love you mommy." I smiled big. I loved to hear her say that. Does she feel the same way when I say that to her? "Aww, Baby girl, I love you too!" I gave her a hug then a kiss on her forehead before getting up. "You need to get some sleep. I love you night." She smiled. "Night mommy."

I walked out of the room closing the door behind me. I leaned on the wall and slid down to sit on the floor. Gosh, I didn't know what I was going to say anymore. I mean every night she would ask something about her worthless father.

Her father... He has done so much to my family. He has done so much to my daughter. But she doesn't remember. Maybe that's for the best, maybe its good that she doesn't know what he did to her. But one day she is going to ask why he never came back... Why he never even called to say hi. Why no one even mentions him. She is going to ask. She is going to want to know. But I don't know what I am going to say. That he hit her so bad she was in the hospital.

My own parents covered him up saying she got in a really bad car accident! Why? Wouldn't they want to protect me and my daughter. Even thought they were mad that I got pregnant at 14, Even on Kayle's third birthday They didn't show up. They were mad at me. I mean that was a month ago and they are still mad.

My baby girl, She is safe. But all the secrets that she can't know right now. All the secrets she shouldn't know.

But its hard to keep the horrifying secrets from people.
