AN: Yes, I know some of the words, like rear view mirror, but I wanted this to be from Parker's point of view sort of. It will have words and phrases little kids use. Forgive me if you don't know what I'm talking about. If anyone wants to, you can add me on messenger to bug me and remind me to update. The addy is: . I'm usually on.
-Bo.
When he was called into the office, he knew something was wrong. He was never checked out of school unless he was really sick or something was wrong. That was his Mommy's rule. One she didn't break often.
"Mommy? What's wrong? Why are your eyes puffy and red? Have you been crying?" He was really worried now. His Mommy never cried. She simply ushered him out of the door into the car quickly. As she drove toward his Daddy's work place, Parker watched his Mommy's face from the mirror on the front window. She was crying again.
"Mommy, please tell me why you are crying and why we are going to Daddy's work place in the middle of the school day? You are scaring me." He felt the tears starting to come out of his own eyes for the pure fact that he was scared. This had never happened before. He knew it wouldn't be good.
When he got to his Daddy's work, his Daddy's Boss's Helper Lady told them that they could go in the Boss's office. Parker had never been allowed in there before so he knew this was really bad. His Daddy's Boss gave his Mommy some papers and his Mommy told him to go wait outside with Daddy's Squints. He ran out, jumped on Dr. Bones's lap, and put his head in her shoulder.
His Mommy came out and sat next to them. She was reading one of the papers that Daddy's Boss had given her and had the other that his name on the paper coverer. She handed it to Dr. Bones and asked her to watch me for a few minutes. Parker guessed that she went to the bathroom, because when she came back and pulled him onto her lap, she didn't look so sad anymore.
"Parker, honey, I don't want to have to tell you this, but your Daddy has gone to Heaven." He knew what this meant. His Daddy was dead and was watching them from Heaven and protecting them really good. He asked his Mommy what the other paper was. It was a letter from his Daddy!
He looked at Dr. Bones before he opened his letter. "See, Dr. Bones! Daddy and me told you that Heaven was real! This proves it!" Everyone that could hear what was going on smiled real big. He read the paper from his Daddy and cried a little. He thought he would have to be strong for his Mommy so he could make his Daddy really proud of him.
At the bottom of his letter, he saw where his Daddy had even written him a note for when he was a big person like his Mommy and Daddy. Parker knew it was wrong, but he snuck a peek at it anyways. He knew he would have to be like a big person and make his Daddy so proud so he could tell all his friends in Heaven about his Bub.
