Chapter 35 true friend

Suddenly he turned to mom and said, “Nancy honey, did you hear her? She just called me dad. Wow!”

“What?” I was astounded. ‘That deadly stare was just because I called him dad,’ I mused.

“Yeah, I heard that, honey. Now stop scaring the child,” she replied and suddenly a warm smile was formed by her lips making my heart ease.

“What? I am not scaring her. Come here, cinnamon.” He pulled me in his arms and gave me a tight hug adding, “See how grown up you have become. I missed you so much. It is so good to see you.”

With tears streaming down my eyes I hugged him back. “I… I missed you too, dad. I really missed you so much,” I stammered in my trembling voice.

“Okay, okay, shh! Don’t cry,” comforting me, he stroked my back.
