"Your mom will be getting discharged today," I smiled and looked over my shoulders to Daniel who had a smile on his face too.
The thought alone made me smile, the thought of her recovering calmed my heart. This coming week will be peaceful for her, with no abusive husband to drain the life out of her. And I was quite surprised Daniel never brought up his father's name, I figured out he wasn't bothered about his absence.
"Will dad be coming home too?" My thoughts were impeded by Daniel's question.
I was caught off guard by his question, this was the first time he ever brought up his father's topic after that day he nearly killed me and Joana. I took a quick glance at him and the smile on his face disappeared replaced by a grim look.
"He will beat her up again once he returns," he turned his eyes to me and it was already clouded with tears threatening to fall. "I don't want to lose my mom."
