I wish
"Hey Alyssa!"
"Allie!" Her friends said from the table they were sitting at.
"Hey." Allie said sadly. Not reciprocating her friends happiness.
"What's wrong?" Josh asked.
"I heard him crying again. He thinks I can't. It always happens. Every year on those three days, her birthday, their anniversary and the day she died." She looked down at her hands, tears filling her eyes.
"Oh, Allie." Jamie said sympathetically
"I know I didn't know her but-but sometimes I wish I did. So I could walk into his room, hug him and share the heartbreak and pain he feels." she laughs bitterly "Then again, if I had met her she would still be here. Being my mom." the tears that she had tried to contain fell from her eyes. She didn't care if she cried in front of her best friends.
"He'll get better."
"it's been fourteen years, Jamie. He can't get over it, they were soul mates." She looked at Jamie's blurry image. "My dads broken, he can't be fixed, I tried, believe me I tried. It's not happening."
"What's today?" Josh asked.
"Her birthday, he doesn't show it. He's all happy an dad like when I'm around but when I go in my room he cries, I hear him and it hurts to know that he won't cry in front of me."
"He just doesn't want you to suffer, what he doesn't know Is that you are." Jamie added getting up to hug Allie.
"I asked him about her once. He said all these wonderful things about her how much I look like her. I just wish I had known her, I want my mom." She said the sobs getting louder.
"It'll be okay, you'll both get through this." Josh stood up and took her hand. "come on, let me walk you home."
"We have school." Allie says clearing the tears from her face.
"You need to be with your dad."
"Thank you guys."
Her friends were the best, an yeah she needed her daddy and her daddy needed her.
