A/N- Thanks for your nice reviews! :D It sure encourage me to go on with this story. I had forgot to tell you guys that this story was actually inspired by a true event. I just changed the names of the people. Okay, well, here's chapter three. Hope you guys like it.

Chapter 3: Two Weeks Later

The morning sun shined through the pure white curtains, giving the room it's glossy glow. Angie was up and was getting ready to go to school. The day at the park was really fun and she enjoyed herself. But it wasn't the same as when Leo took her to the park with her mom.

Slowly, Angie walked downstairs and into the kitchen where she saw her parents embraced in each others arms. They hadn't notice she was there. Angie watched them closely. They were laughing and whispering to each other lovingly, but somehow this image did not strike Angie with happiness that her parents were finally getting along. There was something wrong with this picture, and Angie didn't like it.

"Angie!," Piper exclaimed finally realizing her daughter had been standing there. Tony walked up to his daughter and kneeled down. "Hey, princess. Daddy has to go to work now. You be a good girl, okay?" Angie nodded slowly. Tony kissed her cheek, and then Piper's. He grabbed his suitcase and left silently.

"Ready to go to school, sweetie?," Piper asked. Angie looked up at her mom and asked out of the blues, "Where's Leo?" Piper staggered a bit at the question. "Mommy, I want to see Leo. Where is he, mommy?," Angie questioned again. Piper replied, "You know Leo can be very busy at times." Angie protested, "But he told Angie that he would never be too busy to come and see Angie. Mommy, where is Leo?"

Piper sighed and pleaded, "Angie, honey, can we please talk about this later? Yeah?" Angie nodded unconvinced that they will talk about it later. Piper stated, "Okay, let's get you to school."

With that Piper drove Angie to school without another word. "Daddy will be by to pick you up from school today, okay?," Piper asked. Angie mumbled, "If he doesn't forget."

Angie stepped out of the car and slammed the door before Piper could say anything. Her teacher came by and escorted her and the rest of the class into the school building.

The day that Piper hated has arrived. Angie was going to find out sooner or later that Leo couldn't come to her ever again. That feeling of guilt was still buried deep down inside her. Tony has improved a bit over the weeks, but he wasn't like Leo. There was some weird connection between Angie and him that Piper couldn't quite figure out.

Maybe it was the fact that Leo was in the delivery room when Piper had Angie or maybe Leo was the first person Angie saw when she first opened her eyes. Piper didn't know which. But over years, Angie grew quite close to Leo. They were inseparable.

Noon came around quick, and Angie was dismissed from the school building. She walked out searching for her father, but it was already predictable that he wasn't there.

Angie made herself comfortable sitting on the end of the slide looking up at the sky. She hadn't realized how gloomy it looked. Her thoughts wondered off to Leo. Where was he, she thought curiously. He wouldn't just leave for weeks and not say anything to her, or give an explanation.

"Hey, kiddo," a voice came. Angie looked up and when she saw Leo was standing in front of her, the sun seem to shine through the gray clouds. "Leo!," Angie exclaimed merrily, but then she remembered he left her without saying anything. She grew angry and kicked him in the knee.

"Ouch! What was that for?," Leo asked. "Where have you been?!," Angie demanded. Leo smiled and replied, "I've been working. I'm sorry I didn't come by, but I was really busy."

Angie looked so much like her mother when she was angry. It was adorable.

"Why are you sitting here all alone?," Leo asked. "Because daddy forgot to pick me up again. He always does this," Angie explained disappointed.

"Leo! What in the world?! I thought I told you to stay away from her," came Piper's voice from behind. Leo swirled around and stared at her. Piper walked past him picking Angie up in her arms.

Angie protested, "Let me go! What's wrong? Why does Leo have to stay away?!" Piper gripped her daughter's hand and insisted, "We have to go home, Angie." Angie yanked her hand back forcefully and yelled, "No! I'm not going home! I want to stay with Leo." Piper said, "You can't, Angie. Now, come on." Angie ran back into Leo's arms. Leo didn't want to tell her that he couldn't see her anymore. It broke his heart to tell her something like that.

Leo peeled Angie's hands off of his shoulders and said softly, "Angie, I'm afraid I can't see you anymore. I should have told you sooner. But---" Angie interrupted, "But why?! What did I do?" Leo explained, "No, it's nothing you did. It's just I can't see you anymore. Now, you have your mommy and daddy to watch over you. You'll be okay. Now, be a good girl and go home."

For years that Piper hadn't seen Leo, this was the first time she actually saw him cry. She hated what she was doing and it was so painful to see all this unfold in front of her.

"Remember, I'll always be in your heart, right? So, I'll still be around," Leo stated his voice breaking. Angie nodded as tears rolled down her cheeks. "I love you, Leo," Angie said sniffling. She embraced him and Leo said softly, "I love you, too."

Pulling her away from, Leo insisted, "You be strong, okay? And take care of your mom for me." Angie nodded as Piper took her hand and lead the way to the car.

Angie looked back staring into Leo's eyes.

There wasn't anything much Leo could do now. As hard as it was to turn and walk away, Leo had to do it for the best of everyone.

Angie's soft cry for him seemed to vanish through the wind.
