Part 2
Mum looked at dad with the most scared expression ive ever seen and dad just looked at her curiously.
"Honey... Are you ok"
"Take the Phone Paul." she said quietly and he obeyed her.
"But... isnt it for me" i asked and mum motioned me to silence...
"Hello... hel... Oh god... no... no! go away we dont want you in our lives!" he screamed down the reciever and pressed the 'end call button'. His face flared with anger and he stormed out of the room. Steph whimpered and ran down the hall after him calling 'daddy!'. She was so sensetive and loved him so much that every time he was upset she was there, sitting in his arms singing songs that he once performed. She too had a beautiful voice.
"Take my hand and we will walk through the garden of serenity. We will dance on air like the leaves. You and i will live together in our hearts and we will always be one"
She sang to him whilst he rocked her back and forth slowly, his head buried in her Rich dark hair.
"I wrote that for you Daddy" she said softly and he smiled. I could see a single tear stream down his face. They had something special between them. Something that i admired. It wasnt jealousy... me and him had our own special bond, he was always so good to me and i never felt as though he loved her more. I just think its because we almost lost her when she was 3 months old to whooping cough. Dad was devestated... Mum couldnt have any more kids because she got an infection after Steph was born and had an emergency historectomy. Me and Steph had something special too. I looked after her, she would sing with me and make me clothes and cook biscuits that we'd eat together im my room when mum and dad werent home.
Mum had gone to have a shower and i was lost in my own little world for a moment until i heard the phone ring again. I dashed down the hallway before anyone could beat me and picked it up.
"Hello, McDermott residence Randy Speaking."
"Randy... Randy Its been so long... you sound so different!"
"who... who is this?"
