1.3 Gun
x-o- Stef x-o
I guided my body slowly to Callie's room with the last strength I had to make something work between us because it is starting to kill me. She is my little girl and she needs to know the truth. I knocked softly but heard nothing. I opened the door slowly to see the lights turned off and I looked over to Callie who was curled up in bed. I heard little sniffles and I sighed deciding that now wasn't the time to confront her. She was sick and more fragile so I decided to take myself out without Callie noticing. I stepped back after closing the door and banged into someone little. "Jude." I exclaimed in shock and saw him look at me confused. "Sorry."
"It's okay?" He questioned with a little smile on his face and turned his attention to the closed door. "I am surprised she let you in her room.." I put my hand behind my neck nervously with a little nervous laugh.
"Not exactly." I whispered as I looked down sadly as Jude looked over at me as I spoke. "She was sleeping so she really doesn't know I was in there."
"I think she will come around eventually." He gently spoke to me as he placed his hand on my arm. "I mean, she will have to. You are her Mother. You are what we all need." I looked at him with teary eyes and nodded.
"Thanks honey." I replied as I kissed his head and hugged me as a mother would do. "Now, I need to see if your Mum is willing to forgive me.." He looked confused at me but I shook my head with a laugh. "I might of made her a little upset but it is nothing that I can't fix." He nodded and walked off as I headed to the direction of our room.
"Lena, honey?" I whispered as I walked in and saw her come out of the closet. "I am sorry." She looked at me and smiled a little. "What?"
"It's just that I know you are doing your best and I know I was hard on you for that." She whispered as she sat down and I joined her. "We both have different parenting styles and we are going to clash.. I might get upset or you might get upset but I know it can't be something that we can't fix."
"I love you." I cooed softly as I joined my lips to hers and she moved her lips towards mine. We started to make out for a few minutes then stopped. "We don't want someone walking in on us kissing just yet." I whispered with a wink which made Lena laugh.
"True. Very true." Lena agreed as she stood up and straightened her clothes a little. "I am going to get dinner ready if you wanted to help?" I shook my head and she nodded as she walked out.
"I might have a little down time." I whispered before she fully walked out and she nodded.
"I will get one of the kids to come get you when dinner's on." She replied before she disappeared down the hall leaving me to lie down on the bed to a flashback.
I took little Callie to the local fair on the beachside and broad walk. "Mama?" Callie questioned as we took a stroll there slowly in the summer sun. I looked down at my little innocent 4 year old with a smile who was holding my hand.
"Yes, Cal?" I replied to her as we swung our arms a little.
"I really want some fairy floss." She said in a excited tone as she pointed to a gentlemen making fairy floss for a older crowd of kids. I smiled at her.
"Okay, Cal bear." I answered her as we made our way excitedly to the short line. Once we got there Callie was jumping up and down with happiness. I was happy for her as I admired the way her big brown eyes shorn in the light and her long brown wavy hair fell perfectly down her little body. She was wearing a blue and white top and cute little overalls. She was a little princess who I felt the need to protect from the bad of the world.
"Ma'm?" I looked up seeing the gentlemen trying to get my attention and Callie pulling me towards him. "Did you want pink or blue?"
"BLUE!" Callie squealed excitedly as the young man looked at me for approval and I nodded with a smile. He proceeded to make a big blue ball of fluff for my little Cal as I pulled out the change for the fairy floss. He handed the fairy floss which was bigger than Callie herself and I handed him the money with a smile.
"Thank you." I said with a wink as he saw he had a tip of $4 which made his eyes shorn with happiness. I took Callie's hand and guided us to the park bench then sat down as we shared the fairy floss. There was no way in hell my daughter was getting this fairy floss for herself. I took my camera out and took a quick cute snap of Callie with blue mess on her face.
"CHEESE!" She smiled at the camera and I smiled after clicking it. "Mama, I love you!"
"I love you too." I answered her with a kiss on her forehead after wiping the blue sticky mess off her face then we stood up again and held hands again. We walked slowly on the broad walk and saw there was a little area where they were displaying different police cars. I smiled and guided Callie to them. "Look Callie, this is what I used to drive." I told her as I pointed to one of the police cars and Callie looked excited but then stopped when a police officer who I recognised from when I used to work there. "Sg John Parker!" I exclaimed with a huge smile on my face as Callie hid behind me.
"Stefanie Foster, what a surprise to see you here." He answered me with a big smile on my face. "And is that little miss Callie!" I nodded as I looked down to see Callie who looked frightened.
"Callie?" I whispered as I bend over to her height as she kept her eyes looked on something that was on Sg John Parker. I followed her gaze to where the gun was on his pants belt. I turned my attention back to a shaken up Callie and smiled a little at her. "That gun is nothing to be worried about. Sg John Parker only uses it to keep us all safe from the bad."
"I am not bad." Callie shook her head scared as Sg John Parker bend down to her height.
"I know you aren't, honey." Sg John Parker exclaimed to my little girl with a smile as he covered the gun with his hands so Callie would look at me. "You are an amazing little girl with a bright safe future. This gun is something you should fear but just know people like me who are police officers would never use it to harm innocent people like yourself and your Mama. We are here to protect and serve this country to make is a safer place for everybody."
"And Mama even used to work as a police woman." I whispered as I took her little hands into mine with a smile on my face. "That gun would never be something you would ever have to worry about." She threw herself at me and hugged me then stood back up to look at Sg John Parker.
"I trust you." She whispered with a little smile and let Sg John Parker hug her gently. He got up and came back with a show bag.
"A special show bag for an awesome little girl." He whispered as he handed her it then patted her head gently. "Nice to see you again and I hope we can catch up soon."
"I hope so too." I replied as he waved and got back to what he needed to do. I guided Callie who was busy looking through the bag to realise we were up to the rides. "Callie." I tapped her shoulder and she looked up with an American flag in her mouth. It dropped as soon as realisation hit her.
"RIDES!" She squealed and I nodded as she dragged me to each and every ride that wasn't scary in her eyes. She was so happy and carefree, I wish this moment stayed forever and ever.
My eyes shot opened as the door opened slightly and Mariana appeared. "Hey honey." I greeted her with a smile and she returned it.
"Mum wanted me to tell you dinner was ready." She whispered gently and I got up with a nod of my head. I followed her down the stairs for dinner.
I finally updated! Hey! Hi! Hoped you enjoyed!
