Chapter 3
"Here we are, Felix Ice-Cream Parlour" Reid said with an excited tone.
Emmi held on to Reid's hand as all three of them waked into the ice-cream shop. This is Emmi's favorite ice-cream shop because she is able to mix-n-match her favorite flavors and add toppings. Emmi always ordered the strawberry with oreo chocolate chip flavor and topped it off with little gummy bears. On the other hand Morgan ordered two plain vanilla ice-creams for him and Reid. All three of them sat down at one of the tables.
"Daddy can I sit on your lap and eat my ice-cream?" Emmi asked Reid.
"Sure. I'd love that"
Reid picked up Emmi and sat her on his lap. He took a glanced at Morgan and knew that Morgan too was thinking the same thing as he was. Emmi was more clingy than usual. Ever since they left JJ's home, Emmi was either hanging on to Morgan or Reid.
"Hey Emmi, did you have fun sleeping at Aunt JJ's?" Reid asked.
Emmi nodded her head and continued licking her ice-cream.
Reid went on to pursue his suspicions but could not get anything from her. Emmi said she was tired and showed it with a sad face and a weak voice. Reid gave up as he do not want to suffocate Emmi with his questions.
"Where do you want to go after this princess?" her papa asked.
"Can we go home?"
"Sure we can. Let's finish up our ice-cream and head home. Perhaps tonight we can do movie night. What do you think Emmi?"
"okay…"
Morgan couldn't take it. He was angry and upset at the same time after hearing Emmi's replies. He wanted answers so badly so that he can help his princess feels better
After all three of them had finished their ice-creams they left the parlor. Emmi was holding on to Morgan's hand as they walk to their car.
