106- Promises

"Can we go shopping tomorrow?" Abigail asked him innocently and he made her sit on his lap and switch on the TV.

"Sure," he pinned her head to his chest and kissed her sweet-smelling hair.

"Can we take Alex and Ariel too for shopping?" she asked him, yawning, and he again mumbled, "Sure..."

He had turned down the volume and now was watching an old movie.

"Can mom also come with us, Daddy?" she murmured in an exhausted tone.

"Sure, chipmunk. She can," securing her in his arms he lightly leaned his chin on her head. Just then the door to Sophie's room opened and she stopped when she saw the father-daughter duo sitting on the couch.

Rafael gave her a thumbs-up sign to tell her silently that everything was ok. She nodded and went to Flint's room carrying her laptop.

Now Abi's voice seemed to be getting lower, "Can we take Aunt Sophie and Flint too," Rafael rolled his lips between his teeth.
