I stepped out of the car and looked at my house. Even though we've been living in it for the past 4 years without Dad. Memories already poured out at me, tears wetted my eyes, then I felt two comforting arms wrap around me,

"We'll get through it together. I promise" Kane whispered.

"You know you are all welcome to stay with us" Susannah said, she was trying her hardest to try and make everyone feel comfortable, it wasn't working,

"Thanks Mum, but I think we all need to be together" Kane replied,

"You, you know where we are if you need us, we'll..." She said trailing off at the end,

"We'll sort out all the things that need to be sorted to do with your Dad and everything okay" Frank said,

"Thank you very much, but we'll want to help you sort it out as well" Trent said, then looked at me, I couldn't make eye contact with him,

"Come on Baby girl..." Kane said taking my hand; we walked in together leaving the others outside. The whole house was swimming with memories, it was so...so eerie,

"I'm going to our room, can you leave me alone for a while please Baby" I said quietly,

"Okay, but I'll come in and check on you later" He kissed me softly on the lips, then I walked away.

When I was upstairs and in our room, I led on the bed and shut my eyes. Hoping maybe that if I fell into a really deep sleep, I may see my Daddy again.

My Dream:

"Joel...Joel...I wanna play with you too" I pouted

"Okay...you can be the copper and Trent and I will be the robbers, you have to chase us"

"Okay" I grinned...

"Run Trent...the copper is after us" Joel laughed, Trent smiled as I ran at Joel,

"Don't laugh Twent. I'm gonna get you too" I giggled.

Then suddenly it went dark, like someone turned out the light...

"What do you lot think you are doing out here...get in now..."

"But mommy we're playing" Joel whined,

"No fair" I huffed,

"We're not doing anything bad" Trent said,

"GET IN NOW" She screamed...

"But...but..." I protested, she shoved me and I fell over, scraping my knee. I burst into tears,

"Mommy, that wasn't nice" Joel said attending to me,

"What is your problem?" Trent snapped, kneeling down beside me...

Then mom disappeared and Daddy appeared, he picked me up and cuddled me,

"It's okay princess...don't cry...don't worry...Daddy's here and he's not going anywhere",

"I love you Daddy, very...very...much"

"Daddy...why is mommy so..."

"Evil" Trent finished, he laughed...

Then it went white...

"I love you Lyric...I'll always love you..."

I woke up with tears running down my face. The dream obviously was completely wrong, Trent was with us for a start. I also wasn't a baby. But Daddy was there and my Mom. Thinking about it. I'm actually an orphan.
