Penelope found it hard to believe his serious answer. "Is it true?"

Kelvin retorted, "Do you think I would lie?"

That made sense.

She didn't deserve for him to lie.

Penelope got up anxiously. She had sleepwalked into Kelvin's bed, and he hadn't even noticed?

Penelope nodded and took a few steps, but felt dizzy and lightheaded.

Her throat was dry and sore.

She happily replied, "Okay!"

"Dad, you will always be my dad."
