Rei opened her bright sapphire eyes and waited to smell pancakes from the
kitchen. After ten minutes she became impatient and decided to surprise her
mommy. Opening the door a crack , she saw her father sitting there , his
eyelids closed and dark shadows looming under his eyes.
She smiled , then tip-toed through the crack and quietly to the kitchen door. When she opened it wide and gasped in surprise at what she thought to be her mother's return , there was no one there. Her stomach grumbled in disappointment and she decided to check mommy's room. No one there. On the floor near the window was something golden and sparkling. It was a tiny necklace with a ruby heart and little latches on the side. Opening the heart , inside were two pearl earrings. Rei gasped , and smiled as though waiting for her mother to pop out of the closet.
"Mommy must have been here already and left me a present!," Rei said , putting on the necklace , putting the earrings back in. She quickly tucked it under her night shirt , and ran out to wake up her father.
"Daddy! Daddy! It's morning!" she cried in delight. He slowly opened his weary eyes and smiled at her.
"No it's not," Will replied.
"Yes it is!" Rei replied , putting her hands on her hips. A piece of paper loomed in his shirt pocket , and Rei reached out curiously. Will grabbed her hand and looked in her eyes seriously. She blinked , and moved away , running into the back yard. That look.... had been one she had never seen before on his face. It had surprised her. It had upset her that her caring sweet Daddy wouldn't let her have something that was so curious looking.
Sitting on the swing set , she began to swing , thinking about her mother. Will was inside , and looked out at his daughter , swinging on her play set. Moving into the kitchen and began to prepare breakfast.
Suddenly a knock at the door. Will sighed and walked up to open it. The first thing he saw was a pleasent sight , Craig Barton , his best friend. Craig reached out and rested his hand on Will's shoulder , with understanding eyes.Beside him stood his wife , Megan , daughter of the great Duo.In her blue eyes were tears , dripping over her smile and pale face.
"Where's the little munchkin?" She said , sounding almost enthusiastic for one moment.
"Rei is in the back," Will said , watching Megan remove a kleenex from her purse and wiping away the tears on her pale face. She walked slowly to the back door.
"How is Megan taking it?"Will said , realizing he wasn't the only one affected by her absence.
"Not well I'm afraid , " Craig said , sighing as Will gestured for him to come in. Craig helped him cook breakfast while Megan watched Rei in the backyard.
