And if you ask me to, daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
I'ma give you the world
I'ma buy a diamond ring for you, I'ma sing for you
I'll do anything for you to see you smile

Estrella throws words around
Such as up, more, move or water, the words kids do say whenever they need to.
Yet one day, she was seated on Zayn's lap, meeting with 'Niall's parents' as Zayn called them when she suddenly looked at Zayn and said
"Baba, I go play"
He froze, hell everyone in the room froze, they waited for a reaction from Zayn
Surprise, anger, frustration-
Something!!
Yet he just smiled and kissed her cheek and let her down, she ran off towards Louis and Harry who were outside talking
As soon as she was outside, she was picked up and thrown up in the air
Laughing loudly before she was caught and put down
Zayn felt a hand on his shoulder and turned towards Yaser
"You alright there, son?"
And for the first time, instead of denying being Yaser's son
Zayn just nodded "Yes Yaser. Thank you"

When Estrella's first birthday came, everyone expected something big
Extravagant
But, Zayn just asked for a day with just him and her. For him to not be disturbed with anything
They got one picture though....
Of Estrella excitedly standing in front of a cake with her 4 top teeth and 2 bottom teeth in view
~~~~~
Zayn was wide awake, looking at the ceiling when he felt a struggle against his bedroom door
He looked at it and got up walking towards it before he opened it
There was Estrella Malik, looking up to him with a frown
She stretched her hands up to him and he picked her up
She snuggled into his neck and held onto him
"You wanna sleep in here tonight?"
"Uh-huh"
Zayn looked at the teddy bear on the floor and bent to pick it up before walking deeper into his room
He put her down on the bed then knelt down on the floor giving her the teddy bear
"Baba"
"Hmm?"
"Where Niall?"
Zayn shrugged "Doing work"
