The Love From Vengeance

236: THE FEELING

ARIEL’S POV

i turned to Janice who was looking at the both of us, a surprised look etched on my face. I didn’t even know what to say right now. Did I just hear Janice right, or were my ears deceiving me?

Luke looked at Janice as well. “What did you just say, pretty one?”

“I said, I want the two of you back together. And I want to spend time with you, daddy. I want to play and have fun with you always.”

Luke glanced back at me with a smirk on his face. “I think you heard the little girl loud and clear.”

I gave him a blank expression before turning back to Janice. “Janice, my dear, you…”

“You want that, right?” Luke quizzed Janice, cutting me off.

She nodded. “Yes, of course. Daddy, I want to spend time with you. I want to play and have fun with you always. You saved me from that bad man; you are my hero, and I know for a fact that you will be my best friend.

Luke smirked at me once again. “I think you should listen to the little kid.” He fixed his eyes on Janice. “Of course, pretty one. We are going to be good friends.”

“Yes, Daddy! I know that every moment I will spend with you will be filled with joy, laughter, and love. Your presence right now brings a sense of comfort and security that I cannot find anywhere else.”

“Aww, that’s so sweet of you.” Luke smiled, nodding. “Come here, little one.” He stretched his arms wide for her.

She ran to him and hugged him. “Daddy, please, don’t leave me. Whether we’ll be playing catch in the backyard or watching a movie together, every moment that I’m going to spend with you will be precious and irreplaceable. I’ll cherish our time together, and I’m looking forward to making memories with you. I have a feeling that you will be the best dad a child could ask for.”

“I believe you’ll also be the best daughter ever.”

“I am grateful to have you in my life, Daddy, and I can’t wait to spend time with you.”
