At the age of four, you never knew how cruel the world actually is. All you know it’s nothing but sunshine and rainbows especially that your father, Arden has been nothing but a good man that gives you the world.
Even though your birth is the reason why your mother has been long gone, Arden still saw you as a blessing and sole memory of his loving wife.
You as his son is one of the reasons why he needs to carry on as he believes that unconditional love doesn’t need to be romantic.
One afternoon after playing out in the backyard, you decided to ask your father to have some ice cream time.
While he tries to make up for his left behind work because he has been taking care of you throughout the weekend, you decide to climb your father’s back and start rummaging through his hair.
Arden sighed and chuckled as placed a hand above his head to support your back from falling.
“You silly little bug…”
He then suddenly grabbed you and let you sit down at his desk as his other hand put away the law papers he had been settling.
“So what is it now, little one? What do you want from papa?”
He gently poked your nose as he waited for your answer.
