No More Hidden Feelings

Incomplete

Cal woke up that morning the same way he did every morning, feeling incomplete, and he knew why. As always he was tired, never sleeping more than and hour. His problem was that he couldn't stop thinking about her, she was his world and they both knew it. But he had sabotaged his own hopes with his own clever invention, the Line. Slowly Cal got up from his lonely bed and headed to his shower in an attempt to try and forget his current train of thought, it didn't work. In frustration Cal slammed the water off, grabbed his towel and started drying himself off. As he was stepping out of the shower he tripped and fell face first onto the hard tile floor. Cal felt a sharp pain erupt from his cheek.

"That's it I've got to do something about this before I really hurt myself."

Cal growled to himself.

"Dad? Are you alright?"

"Just peachy"

Cal got up and finished getting ready then went downstairs to make his daughter's favorite breakfast, pancakes. He served breakfast and sat down with a cup of coffee in his hand, observing his daughter. She was so free and innocent without the knowledge he had. Just then a spark appeared in his eyes and his daughter noticed it.

"How'd you like to make twenty bucks?"

Emily shrugged slightly.

"Depends on what I have to do"

Cal smiled he knew his daughter was lying, she would do just about anything for the money.
