Daddy
"Daddy, are you out there? Daddy, won't you come and play?
Daddy, do you not care? Is there nothing that you want to say?..." Daddy by Coldplay.

Today was the day.
I do not know how or when I fell asleep last night, but I did. I woke to the sun shining through my window, however I did not move an inch. Today was the day I was going to meet them. My breathing was shaky, but I managed to close my eyes and take a few deep breaths to calm myself down.
I cannot believe I'm hiding such a secret from Tyler and Chloe. Ever since we were kids we told each other everything, not being able to talk to them about this made my heart clench. I kept imagining how hurt they would be once everything comes to light. In spite of that, Silver made sure I understood, that my mother and so-called father cannot in anyway know about any of this yet.
