“What are you thinking about?” Papa asks, running his hand up and down my back.
“You guys. My life here. How much I love you two,” I whisper.
“We love you, too.” Daddy kisses my lips.
“Hmm, I think you’re also thinking about something else,” Papa points out.
“I’m sorry,” I sigh. “I know I’m not supposed to think about it but it’s hard. She used to be my friend.”
“Lainey?” Daddy asks.
I bury my head into his chest. “I’m sorry. I am just worried about her.”
“She’s safe where she is.” Papa kisses my shoulder. “That’s all we can tell you. She is safe.”
I let out a sigh and nod. It’s better than nothing.
“Now try not to worry about it too much,” Daddy chuckles. “Though, knowing you, it will be hard.”
“It will be,” I mumble. “But I’ll try.”
“Good girl,” Papa praises. “What do you want to do today?”
“Snuggle with you both. Nothing else,” I reply. “I just want to be next to you both since it’s where I belong.”
“Love you.” Daddy kisses my forehead.
“Love you, too.” I grab Papa’s hand. “I love you.”
“Love you.”
The End
