Sandra and Olivia's POV
Olivia was always daddy's girl. I dont' remember much of my time with him as a baby. But I do remember some things, crazy as that sounds. But nothing he did with her could even compare to what he did for me. He protected me. He lost his life for me. Well, he lost his life for all of us really. I may only be six but something in the back of my mind keeps telling me that its my fault. Olivia looks over at me and grabs my hand. She must know what I'm thinking.
I look to my right and I see my mom trying as hard as she can to keep her tears in, but she can't. I see Unlce Eric, Uncle Horatio and Aunt Maxie putting there hands on her back, trying to comfort her. But I know that when we go home no one will be there to wipe away her tears. To make her pain go away. Atleast not the person who should be there. I sigh heavily and then suddenly get angry with myself. Everyone around me is crying. Even Sandra is crying. Why can't I cry? Why can't I cry for my daddy? Everyone always tells me that I was and always will be daddy's little girl. Why? That's not fair. What's the point of being daddy's little girl if you don't remember any of it. What's the point in people telling me that I had this great connection with my father when I was a baby if I can't even remember it. I feel my foot shaking violently next to me and for a second I think I'm going to get up and walk out of here. But I can't. I have to suck up my jealousy, sadness, anger, and every other emotion under the sun that no six year old little girl should ever feel and stay put.
The service was nice, I'm only six so I wouldn't know what others were like. After the service was over we all went back to the house. Aunt Alexx had made a few dishes and brought them over. Me and Olivia suprisngly stayed attached to eachother's hip the whole night. We look around the room and see all these different people. Some whom we've never heared of before. I look over and see the Chief of police. Mommy always told me I could pick him out of a line up because he had these bright blue eyes, like there were magnifed by a billion lights or something. He catched my eye and smiled sympathetically. I look down at my lap and he walks over to me and Olivia. He squats down and pulls two little baggies out of his uniform pocket. Me and Olivia exchange looks and then open them. Inside is some Milky Way candy bars and some Dora the Explorer stickers. I look up at him with an expression that only my father and I could give. He laughs a little, and I think to myself he must see a lot of my daddy in me. And that makes me smile. "I know chocolate and Dora always makes my little girl happy when she's feeling blue." he says softly. He kisses each of our foreheads and then walks back over to his wife.
Sandra had left to go to the bathroom and left me alone sitting on the couch by myself. I look around the room and see different people talking. I see Uncle Eric with his arms wrapped around Aunt Maxine. I look to my left and see mommy talking to Officer Jessop and one of daddy's good friends Aaron Peters. I can tell mommys trying to keep a good grip on her emotions, she keeps biting her bottom lip. Aaron glances over at me and smiles a little. I quickly look away and walk out of the room.
After most of the people had left Olivia and I told mommy that we were tired. She took us into our bedroom and helped us put our pj's on. She didn't say a single word the whole time. I gave Olivia a look and she just shrugged. I just figured that mommy was afraid if she opened her mouth she'd cry. Or yell. And mommy never liked to yell. She tucks me in and kisses my forehead. She walks over to Sandra's bed and does the same. She then goes to the door, turns out the light, and dissapears down the hall. Me and Sandra look at eachother one last time before rolling on the other side, backs facing eachother. I can tell that Sandra had already fall asleep from her snores. She denies the whole thing but I know the truth and that's all that matters. I didn't realize how long I had laid there that night until I feel Sandra's hand on my arm. I wondered why she wondered over to my bed when I feel her hand wipe at my cheeks and I realized I was crying. She snuggled up with me and adventually we both fell asleep. If its one thing you can always count on is family. They'll always be there for you in your time of need.
