AIDEN

"You look ahead all the time!"

"Like this?" I asked as I turned to my left.

"What? No." She palmed both sides of my face and made me face forward. "Like this."

When she removed her hands, I turned to my right.

I was met with silence. When I turned back to face her, there was confusion in her eyes. She looked at me like I was some dumbass.

"What?" I asked, folding my lips in my mouth to keep my laugh at bay.

"Did you go to school?"

That was it. I burst out laughing. And all the while she just watched me.

She shook her head. "There's also a boy in my class who laughs whenever he's being taught. But my teacher continues teaching anyway."

Then she proceeded to show me my right and my left and afterward told me the difference between those two and my front.

As I watched her, I was sure that her brother was surely a lucky boy to have her as an older sister.

When she was done, she took a deep breath then looked at me, her brows slightly squeezed in worry. "I could write it in a paper for you. So whenever you forget it, you can just go back to it. My daddy tells me to do that all the time." "Oh that will be great. Thank you so much, Amie," I answered in a cheery tone, trying to ignore the pang that accompanied the word 'daddy.'

It's not been up to ten minutes since we began our walk and she has mentioned 'daddy' like a thousand times.

I wished it was me she was referring to with that term but it only made my heart constrict even more. It saddened me that I couldn't disclose to her that I was her 'daddy' and not Dennis.
