“Oops. I nearly went oopsy-daisy!”
“I need to find something to tie you to the chair.”
“Daddy, that’s not very nice!” She waggled a finger at him.
“It’s going to have to be a quick dinner.” He let go of her, eyeing her as though making sure that she was going to stay on her chair, then he moved to the fridge. “I want you to drink all of that water, too.”
“I don’t feel like water. Or dinner.”
“Tough.”
“Are you upset with me for getting drunk?” she asked sniffling as she took a few sips of the water.
Ooh. That actually tasted really good. She gulped it down.
“I’m not upset with you, baby. Although I do wish you’d waited for me. I would prefer to watch over you when you’re in a vulnerable state.”
“Like when I’m Little?” she asked.
“Exactly.”
“I was just upset.”
“With Cammie leaving?” he asked.
“You already know? Wow. You know everything.”
“I do. And you would do well to remember that,” he warned.
“I sure will, Daddy.”
He set down a plate with cheese, crackers, pickles, and a Mexican salad with sliced avocado.
“Daddy, it’s got corn in it.” She pointed at the salad.
“You said it was your love language, so I asked Anita and she made it for you.”
“I loves Anita, isn’t she just the best?” She placed her elbow on the table and rested her face on her palm.
“You’ve never met her.”
“Daddy, just because I has never met someone doesn’t mean I can’t loves them. I’m full of love.”
“As long as most of that love is for me,” he grumbled.
Silly Daddy.
“Course it is, Daddy. I love you the mostest of all.”
He stared at her for a long moment. “You need to say that again.”
She opened her mouth, but he put his hand over it.
“When you’re sober.” He removed his hand.
“Okay, Daddy.”
“Drink some more water,” he ordered.
