Fandoms Fights Tsunami - TEASER for my outtake of The Mystery of You:
“Daddy?”
I turned around to see Bella, wide-eyed and with traces of tears on her cheeks.
“Where’s Mommy?”
I swallowed hard and held out my arms for her. She ran into them willingly, and I picked her up. She buried her face in my neck, and I held her as tight as I dared as I tried to make sense of what had just happened. Had my wife really just left me? Had my baby girl’s mother just walked out the door without even worrying about how her daughter would react? It was Bella’s birthday for god’s sake.
“Why did Mommy leave? Can I go with her?” Bella asked me in a whisper. “When is she coming back?”
“I don’t know, baby girl. I don’t know,” I answered hopelessly. “But Daddy’s here. He’s never leaving you. Never.”
“But I want Mommy!” she cried into my neck, and I felt tears sting in my own eyes.
