PART 4
The next morning ,Valentine's Day, started off as usual in the Malucci household. Alarm clocks going off, Cheryl in the bathroom and Dave getting Allison up, dressed and breakfast ready. Cheryl had a hair appointment for today so she would look beautiful for her dinner with Dave. Both Cheryl and Dave were going to wait until that dinner to give each other their Valentine's Day gift. She told Dave she had to stop by the hospital later to pick up her paycheck and would meet him back home later. She said if she had a chance she would drop in and visit Carter. Allison could hardly sit still long enough to eat she was so excited about the zoo. All through breakfast, Allison would go on and on about what animals she wanted to see most. She did more talking than she did eating Dave told her to finish breakfast, then he had to make a stop before they go to the zoo. Cheryl took the car so Dave decided to take his bike with Allison in the child's seat on back as he did many times. After Cheryl had left, Dave let Allison in on a little secret since she would be with him. Before the zoo, he had to stop by the jeweler's to pick up the engagement ring he had made for Cheryl. She was only five years old but she knew what that meant and she was so excited, she was already planning the wedding. Just a regular day. Not this day and never again.
I know this is a short chapter but the next ones are much longer to make up for it. Please read and review.
