" I sat out on a narrow way many years ago. Hoping I would find true love along the broken road." Carlos began to sing as he walked out on to the roof of the Palmwoods Hotel. It had been a long day of rehearsing for the big concert that was coming up and Carlos just needed to get away from it all and relax and clear his mind.
"But I got lost a time or two. Wiped my brow and kept pushing through. I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you." Carlos loved to sing this song all the time to his girlfriend Stephanie before the car accident. Now it had been 6 yrs since that very day since the tragic event and all he had was his 6 yr old son, Stephen.
"Every long lost dream lead me to where you are. Others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars pointing me on my way into your loving arms. This much I know is true." Carlos sat on the roof and sung his heart to the sky because he knew that she was listening to him.
"That God blessed the broken road that lead me straight to you." Carlos sang not paying any attention as his son walked up behind him.
"Hey daddy are you ok?" Stephen asked him as he gave his dad a hug.
"Yea I'm fine . Just need some air is all." He said as he picked up his son and sat him in his lap. " So did you have a good day at school today."
"Yes daddy, I did." Stephen began to tell his daddy all about his first day of school and the friends he had made and all the game they had played.
"Well I am glad to hear that you had a good day. Now are you ready to go see your uncles for your birthday?"
"Yes can we daddy? I want to go see Uncle Kendall, Uncle Logan, and Uncle James." He said as he jumped out of his daddy's lap.
"Alright go on back to the apartment and get ready ok. I will be there in an moment." Carlos said to his son and just like that Stephen ran off to the apartment.
"Be careful going down those stairs." Carlos yelled after him.
"I will daddy." Stephen yelled back.
Carlos looked back up to the sky " I really wish you were here Stephanie, he is growing up to look more and more like you. I love you Stephanie." He said as he walked back through the doors and back down to the apartment.
