“How can something look fine on the OUTSIDE but be broken INSIDE?” Then her dad picked her up and brought her inside, his instructions confusing her. She still had her one arm wrapped around her blanket and the other close to her chest. What was she supposed to do?
Anons from My Muses Children || Selectively Accepting “Confusing, I know,” he replied, knowing how confusing something like this could be for a child. “Here-” Tom took the bracelet and moved to the waiting room, knowing that it’d still be a few minutes.

“Why not?” She questioned. “You fix Mama all the time!” And at the promise of calling her soon, she asked, “What if Mama says I’m okay – can we go home then? I just want to go home.”
Anons from My Muses Children || Selectively Accepting Tom let out a heavy sigh as he drove. “Because, honey.

Once she was in her dad’s arms, she was very reluctant to be put down in her car seat. But her Mama kept a purple plaid blanket in the car just for her, which she burrowed into as she continued to cry, “I don’t wanna go to work, I want to stay at home with you and Mama. You can fix it! We don’t have to go nowhere.”
Anons from My Muses Children || Selectively Accepting “I know, baby. I know,” He said, turning back around in his seat and buckling his seatbelt. “But this isn’t something Daddy can fix at home,” he replied, pulling out his phone and calling the hospital, giving them warning of an incoming patient, much like he would doContinue reading “Once she was in her dad’s arms, she was very reluctant to be put down in her car seat.

As soon as Tom touched her arm, she started to scream, pushing back at him, “Don’t, Daddy, it hurts!” She continued to sob, “I want Mamaaaaa.”
Anons from My Muses Children || Selectively Accepting Tom let go, moving his hands away from her arm as she cried out. “I know, baby girl, I know.

She cried harder as he wiped at the cut, more out of fear than it actually hurting her. Then she looked down at her right arm pressed close to her chest. “The chair fell over and my arm got squished. You have to fix it…”
Anons from My Muses Children || Selectively Accepting He shushed her gently, hoping to calm her as he cleaned the cut.

“The sink,” she hiccupped, “the sink spit on me when I washing my hands and I needed a big towel. I fell. I fell. I hurt…”
Anons from My Muses Children || Selectively Accepting As he held her close, he pursed his lips as he nodded in understanding. How could he have let this happen? Effortlessly he scooped her up, carrying her to the kitchen and setting her on the counter beside the sink. He wet a towel with cold waterContinue reading ““The sink,” she hiccupped, “the sink spit on me when I washing my hands and I needed a big towel. I fell. I fell. I hurt…””

He immediately dropped the dish heContinue reading “There’s a loud bang, and then a crash, and then the sounds of Tom’s daughter crying can be heard throughout the house.”
She didn’t lose interest so much as fall asleep. She had her face pressed up against her dad’s chest, tiny little snores escaping her mouth as she kept her grip tight on Jane.
Anons from My Muses Children || Accepting He watched as her eyes grew heavy, and he could tell she was fighting sleep.

“Like I’m gonna go to fixer school!” She exclaimed. Then, with Jane still in tow, she climbed into her dad’s lap, prompting, “Once upon a time…”
Anons from My Muses Children || Accepting “Exactly!” Tom exclaimed as his daughter clambered into his lap. He easily carried her to the armchair and pulled a blanket over their legs. “Right!

Tom was preparedContinue reading ““Like I’m gonna go to fixer school!” She exclaimed. Then, with Jane still in tow, she climbed into her dad’s lap, prompting, “Once upon a time…””
