Daddy, Why?
Daddy, why did you go away?
Daddy, where were you when I was learning my new powers?
Daddy, where were you when I was attacked by demons?
Daddy, why weren't you there to tuck me in at night?
You were there to protect me once. You got so scared by it you ran like the chicken you are!
Poor Phoebe. I watch her snuggling up to you. She doesn't know you'll leave just like before.
Why weren't you there to watch my sisters grow up?
Why weren't you there to watch me grow up?
Why weren't you there to comfort me when demons beat me bloodless?
Why weren't you there to be my shoulder to cry on when the innocent I protected had to die for no good reason,
or, for that matter, when my first boyfriend broke up with me?
When you left Daddy, you took something from me-and left me with anger and a deep, terrible darkness.
