Scared Much
337 Words
I wake up really early despite having slept so late last night. I was anxious for my baby girl to wake up. I have checked on her thrice already and she is still asleep. I take my bath quickly and then make breakfast. I make chocolate pancakes. I think it'll comfort her a little.
Fifteen minutes later, pancakes are done.
I am off work for thirty days now. That's a paid leave that all Doms get when they get themselves a little to get settled in with them. We live in a very small community and I am an architect. Many buildings in here are designed by me. I have been living here since I can remember and this is my life now. This is all I know.
The doorbell rings and its little Carol.
"Hello, Uncle Christian. I want to meet your baby! We will be best friends!" She squeals and hugs me.
"Calm down Carol. She is still asleep. And why are you here alone? Where is your daddy?" I ask her as a pick her up. She is 4"10 the same height as my baby I think. I am over 7 feet. All of us are. Vampires are all well built and humans well they are so small and fragile.
"Daddy said I could come here alone today If I don't run in the street. I did not run. When will she wake up?" She asks me.
"I hope soon babe. Would you like some pancakes? Huh?" I ask her as I kiss her cheek. She is a sweetheart.
"No, I will run along to daddy. Will you please call me over for play dates when she wakes up?!"
"I will honey and no running. Get along."
Carol is the little of my best friend Jay who lives in the next house, twenty steps away from my house.
The little one is still asleep and I sit and hog on to some pancakes.
I think back to yesterday when I got my baby girl...
