"Yay! Meat Balls!" Alice screamed from her seat on the dinner table. It was her favorite food, along with rice, and having her daddy make it for her just made her day better.
"Blaine, do you really have to feed her meat balls all the time?" Alice's mother said as she came into the dining room. "You feed her that garbage everyday, can't you find her something else to eat?" The little girl's eyes suddenly fell down onto her plate. She looked at her food and found it extremely familiar. She couldn't help but like the little pieces of unknown meat, but her mama was right. She did eat meat balls way too much.
"Come on Julia, she's only six, let her indulge in her favourite foods." Blaine took his hand and gave Alice's hair a bit of a tussle, causing some of her hair to come out of place.
"Thanks papa." Alice smiled as she cut off a piece of meat and combined it with the rice on one spoon. She smiled at her father with her mouth filled. Blaine couldn't help but smile back.
"Whatever, I still think you should give her more vegetables." Julia looked at herself in the mirror located in their living room, turning her head to get a glance of herself at different angles. Feeling satisfied with her looks, she took her keys and headed for the door.
"Where are you going?" Blaine said, exiting the dining area, slight hint of annoyance in his voice.
"What's it to ya?" Blaine gave a defeated groan, expecting his wife to give that answer once again.
"Fine, just come back before midnight please? I don't want another call from Jessie saying that you're completely passed out in her floor at 4:00 am. You had me worried sick!"
"Yeah whatever." At that Julia exited the building, her head held up high and her keys dangling from her forefingers.
Blaine entered to see Alice just sitting there, looking at her plate. "Papa, I don't want meat balls anymore."
The father and daughter sat on the couch, watching a random Disney channel show that Alice seemed to like. Blaine didn't really pay attention, nor did he want to, because his mind was filled with thoughts about a certain person, a certain man actually, Mr. Kurt Hummel. It had been almost a week since they first met, and frankly, he had been avoiding the teacher. He didn't know what it was that he felt. He just felt sort of good when they shook hands, and when he lost contact, it felt like he fell off a cliff. What was this feeling? He's never felt this before, even for the woman he married. In fact that feeling has been diminishing ever since a year ago. He didn't know what was wrong, but he somehow had a hunch.
Alice yawned, causing Blaine's train of thought to stop. He carried his daughter over to the bathroom, urging her to brush her teeth as he tidied up her room. As he picked up the dolls that littered her floor, he noticed one that completely stopped him in his tracks. It was a simple doll. Plastic, moveable arms and legs, brown painted hair and very pale. But the thing was, this doll was male. The doll wore the most extravagant tiny clothing, and it reminded him of Alice's teacher once more. I must be going out of my mind! He yelled to himself as he continued to tidy up, carefully setting down the male doll on the shelf that stood near the door.
"Papa? Where's mama?" Alice yawned as she entered her room, her mouth still covered in bubbles. Blaine went over and wiped the bubbles away with his finger and led the girl over to her bed.
"Mama's gone for a while okay?" He pulled the blanket over her and kissed her good night. Alice yawned one more time before turning to her side and sailing off to dreamland.
Alice woke up in the middle of the night feeling thirsty. She opened her eyes, and felt very lazy to stand up, but her tongue was extremely dry and she just felt like drinking some water. She slowly stood up from her bed and jumped off the side, pulling her fuzzy slippers on as she trudged out of her room. Before going to the kitchen downstairs, she heard a couple of voices yelling at the top of their lungs. She quietly stepped down, fearing that she would see the same scene that she saw before.
From the railings of the stairs, she looked into the kitchen. There she saw her papa and her mama yelling at each other. It wasn't always like this. Papa always loved his family, but sometimes Alice felt that her mama didn't love her or papa anymore. She wasn't at home anymore, and when she was she completely ignored them.
Once, Alice tried to show her a drawing she did in class. Alice was so proud of the drawing. It was a colorful picture that showed her family holding hands in the park, happy and enjoying the giant yellow sun that she drew on the top corner. Her papa said that it was absolutely wonderful, but her mama simply took it off her hands, looked at it and gave it back. She didn't even say anything. With a broken heart, Alice put it back on the refrigerator and went to her room.
The next day, she found the drawing in the trash can, crumpled up and destroyed. Alice wanted to get it back, but it was already covered in icky food sauce and other stuff.
Alice held onto the railings of the stairs. Seeing her parents like this was terrifying to her, but she knew it wasn't her papa's fault. Her papa always loved. A tear flowed from her hazel eye and down her cheek. She didn't know what to do. She wanted to be with mama, but she was always ignored. Papa always wanted to spend family time, but mama always didn't want to. She didn't feel thirsty anymore, so she hurried back up the stairs and into her room.
"Fine Blaine, if you're going to be like this I'm leaving!" Julia managed to go up the stairs in her angry state and bolted into her and Blaine's room. She took out a suitcase from the closet and immediately filled it with her clothing and various other stuff that belonged to her.
"Fine! be that way!" He looked at his "wife" practically shoving random clothing into the bag, thinking of how this came to be. "What happened to us Julia?"
"You happened Blaine."
"What the hell is that supposed to mean?"
"Bye Blaineā¦" She exited the room and headed down the stairs, completely ignoring the open door that she passed by along the way.
"Bye mama." Alice whispered to herself, her head poking out of her door. With a shocked face, Blaine ran for his daughter, hugging her tightly, tears running down his face. This wasn't how he wanted his daughter to find out. he imagined how terrible this must be for her. Losing her mother in a blink of an eye. "It's ok papa." Alice patted his shoulder. He pulled away from the hug to see his daughter eye to eye, there he saw something. It wasn't fear, or anger or sadness, or any negative emotion that a little girl might feel in this situation, but something else. "Mama doesn't love us anymore." Blaine blinked at his daughter's words, they were very simply explained, but it still took him by surprise.
Blaine hugged his daughter again. "I still love you Alice." He whispered into his daughter's ear.
"Papa?"
"Yes honey?"
"Can I have chicken nuggets?"
I absolutely love Alice! She's so cute!
I also love chicken nuggets, but that's beside the point.
