Little Monster Miracle Orphanage (Day 9)

The alarm rings at a later morning than usual. The soft light of the sun’s rays through your drapes envelop the room in a natural glow. Shutting the noise, and stretching your muscles you stand up and proceed to wash yourself in the bathroom. Knowing Chloe’s usual wake-up time you take a quick shower, and a once over on your face keeping your facial hair the way you want it.

Descending downstairs you glance at your living room, under the same yellow light of the morning sun. Very spacious, or under furnished you couldn’t quite tell, but at the moment you didn’t need any more of a reason to add to it. A simple vanilla white couch under a large red, and brown rug of spiraling, tribal pattern. A black, oak wooden coffee table, and your over fifty inch screen television.

“(I hope Chloe isn’t too bored being in this house…maybe I should get some new furniture, should update her room too while I’m at it)” you thought to yourself.

You prepare your breakfast; a simple scrambling of two eggs, sausage, a thick slice of ham, and some hash-browns with a glass of orange juice, and some condiments of spices and dressings.

“OoOoOoOoO~” Chloe’s echoing wail was heard as she fazed through the ceiling.

“Sweetie, remember we use the stairs to go up, and down” you remind her as she ‘sits’ on a chair beside you.

“I know~ but I gotta practice, and stuff! The books we got from the library are telling me a lot of things I can do” Chloe explained.

She wasn’t kidding, and you had an idea of what she was attempting to study for as well seeing as how you had to be her arms, and hands through the whole process.

You had to go over a lot of the books with her as she isn’t even capable of turning the pages herself. You would sit on the couch, or sofa in the living room and she would ‘sit’ on your lap, or nestle inside you before you went numb from her spectral body. She still felt like a thick layer of ice-cold gas every-time she got close, or came into contact with you; the exception being when she’s in your pocket…you suppose this recently discovered organ or ‘soul pocket’ kept the cold away?

After she found a particular page she was fond of understanding, you would head on over to your old scanner/printer and take the copy over to her room. that’s where you would then pin it to her wall so she may stare at it in a manner in which she can study without bothering you.

Some would find the whole task to be annoying to put it lightly, but for you…

It felt like the first real fatherly thing you’ve done for her since taking her in.

“Are you sure you’re okay with just watching me eat?” You ask as she continues to silently sit and stare at you.

“*Mhm*! Plus it’s not like I completely forgotten what food tastes like, and I-I just want to spend time with you dad” Chloe confessed.

“Do you prefer spending time with me outside of my body than inside?” You ask.

“Sort of…but only ‘cause I’m not use to being inside others like that…it’s still so weird, this whole ghost stuff, and I guess I just want to be close to you like this, you know-kinda normal…sorry for making you cold and stuff though” Chloe apologizes.

“Well aren’t you just a sweetheart” you praise at her little confession.

She’s been making a habit of expressing herself more, and more. It would appear as if she’s actually starting to trust you with her feelings rather than simply fawning over you.

“Yeah~ I’m so innocent, bet that turns a lot of people on if I talk to them like that” Chloe teased while sticking her tongue with a sly grin.

Well no one said she was perfect…it would seem as if the demonic taint that formed her spectral body rears it’s head from time to time.

“I’d be concerned with society if it were really ‘many’ people, but you do have a fan-base I have to protect you from. I’m not just gonna hand you over to any guy, nor will I let you just flaunt it everywhere either” you warn.

“Whaa?~ No way~ that sounds lame~” Chloe giggled.

“We’ll talk about it later, right now I better hurry or I’ll be late for work” you respond.

“Gotcha, gonna do weird stuff to one of the girls now?” Chloe asked.

“I doubt that’s going to be on my to do list” you joke around.

“Alright, let’s go-let’s go! I want to see my friend!” Chloe excitedly proclaimed.

“Right, on my way, let’s do it” you pump her up.

“Cannon ball~!” Chloe shouts plunging herself back inside your what she has now called ‘soul pocket’.

“Tell me again where my so called ‘soul pocket’ is?” You ask.

“You know, it’s like right there, like next to your pancreas I think” she explains.

With that level of information gathered you take your things and head back to work.

Seeing as how you had a later morning shift the halls were already filling with scampering young mamono children, a few of them taking an instant liking to you already. For the most part they seem well behaved save for a few rowdier children yanking and pulling you around for their personal fun time. You hold yourself just fine so far until you volunteer to help deliver warm towels with Nirvana who seems to be dragging the bulk of the contents with a net from her web.

Chloe finding your mundane tasks, and mundane manner in which you performed them, has settled comfortably inside you once more to sleep, and save her energy for future play dates.

“I know you’re just doing this so you can fornicate with me later…but I appreciate the assistance little bug” Nirvana smiles.

“I-I’m not just doing this for my own gain, I just want to help any way I can” you explain.

“So~so~ innocent. Well in any case you shouldn’t take my words too seriously. Everyone appreciates whatever help we can give each other, honestly it feels a little weird to me” Nirvana said.

“You keep mostly to yourself right?” You ask.

“And the same can be said of many of my kind yes, the most interaction we get is bartering some women garments with the locals, that and keeping ourselves secluded with our chosen partner, best way to rid of an Ushi-Oni problem is with a male sacrifice, you’ll never see her again after that” Nirvana explained.

You shudder at the thought of the poor or perhaps maybe lucky man’s fate, so you try to change topics.

“I gotta admit though, this outfit is really something, your silk feels really soft” you admire.

“…That’s not my silk…it’s just cotton with some polyester mixed in, the only thing of mine is my personal emblem patched on you at the last minute” Nirvana explained.

“Oh, I-I thought-” you began.

“Did you really think I would give something as precious as my silk for you to wear after meeting you once? You’re either stupid or really confident” Nirvana said.

“I-uh~ sorry” you apologize.

“No need to apologize, but if you must make me feel better, I do have some spare web you can wear, it’s a ‘little’ restrictive and you may find it pinches in all the weird places. Maybe if I saw you in that, we’ll talk” Nirvana smiled her predator smile.

“S-so where are taking these!?” You quickly change topics again.

“The pool, I’m not much for swimming, but most of the kids are, especially with the warm season coming, after that I’m on my own for some personal reasons. I suggest you do the same before the lifeguard takes notice of you” Nirvana warned.

“W-why is that?” You ask.

“Oh, no reason. She’s just very distracting” Nirvana said no more.

You reach the pool, a large nearly Olympic sized pool that must have cost a pretty penny or two, but your certain it was worth it considering how happy the kids are, swimming in all sorts of positions. Dog paddling, breast-strokes, and some just floating on their backs just chatting away, and passing the time. You’re also happy to see their many various swimsuits are tasteful in the sense that they look more cute than alluring. Mostly soft colors of pink, red, and cyan with the occasional yellow and green, almost all one piece save for the older children who for whatever reason prefer to show their signs of maturity with two piece bikinis.

Over all, a lot of the children were composed of Mermaids of various shades of blue, but there were also Harpies washing themselves via the shallow end, and making the most noise. A tiny Dwarf with equally tiny water wings being swayed back and forth by the waves the children were making around her. Also for some reason, there was a blue clay pot with several wavy violet patterns just floating in the water…

“Just plop the towels in that large cart, don’t make eye contact, don’t lose focus” Nirvana quickly said.

You do as you are told, but right as you were tossing the warm towels into the cart you hear a loud cry for attention, not from one of the children, but from someone else.

“Oh~ hey Josephine! No time to chat, I have other things to do” Nirvana quickly said.

“Wait-wait! You must tell moi of this most chic man you have with you!” You catch the voice of someone very foreign and very European.

She wore a dark pink beret with a small dazzling light pink coral adornment on the side of her bouncy, wavy hot pink hair, the tips of which barely touching her shoulders. Her green eyes were wide and curious, and her smile devious and lustful. A combination of both cuteness and sexiness only a select few can ever pull off. The only clothing beside her hat you can make out was her black bra composed of tiny seashells, or at least they looked tiny compared to her large breasts which swayed and moved freely along with the rest of her body, like waves of the ocean. She lays near the center of the pool with the tip of her hot pink thick fish tail flapping on occasion.

“No time, I must get going” Nirvana quickly waved her off.

“Wait don’t leave me here alone” you hiss at her as she departs.

“Sorry, too busy trying to seclude myself” Nirvana quickly said before leaving.

The mermaid in question was already swimming with such a rapid pace across the water, and reaching you in mere seconds. The splash she made coming out of the water soaking you head to toe.

“Oh! My faute! I’m am most sorry for you” The mermaid quickly apologized.

“No, it’s alright, just a little water” you wave it off, granted you were practically soaked.

“Oh, zat is a relief to hear of you. I heard ze stories of mon patron bringing a man to our midst. Are you ze man I heard of?” She asked.

“Y-yeah, that’s me I’m Anon by the way and I gotta admit you’re the first Mermaid I met here” you introduce yourself.

“Oh how lucky I am to be your first, but I am not just mermaid! No-no I am a how you say~ Merrow!” The mermaid accurately called a Merrow declared.

“Oh, I’m sorry, I got all mixed up” you apologize.

“It’s an honest mistake. Oh mon dieu, I haven’t introduced myself. Here you are standing before me and you don’t even know my name! Je suis Josephine, I’ve travel from my home all the way here to tour the men of your country until Katy has fished me up and I fell in love with ze children here and so I came to stay!” Josephine explained herself.

“I guess you can say Katy did the same to me, except I was probably more willing from the get go” you explain.

“Oui! She is a good talker, she reminds me of mama, though I don’t see her here very much” Josephine says.

“Oh? I wonder why” you wonder.

“I heard ze rumors, that mon patron does not know her way around water if you know what I am saying” Josephine whispers loudly.

“You mean, she can’t swim? I never heard of that” you reply.

“Is only rumor, so! Is this your first time visiting our pool?” Josephine asked.

“Yeah, actually it is, never really found a reason to be here to be honest” you reply.

“Oh~ I am plenty reason to come here alone, would you like to know why?” She’s already flirting.

“I~ think I should go back to work” you reply, though her invitation was very enticing.

“All work, no play make you dull man, let me fix that mon amour” her voice turns lustful.

She’s out of the water and right be your side, while not able to stand on her tail alone, she is tall enough to rest her head on your chest and wrap her arms around your torso. Her wet and soft body, especially her breasts were already squeezing themselves on your wet shirt. The moisture between you two has incidentally caused you feel in a manner in which the two of you were already nude.

“I-I really shouldn’t e-even if I want to” you respond feeling yourself going into a haze just from her skin touch alone.

This wasn’t right. Something else was at play, she couldn’t be this irresistible could she?

“Oh~ don’t be that way mon amour, just tell Katy you are on a breaking period, it won’t take long cheri. I’m new to your country and I could really use ze tour guide to a foreign man, and you’re perfect for the job” Josephine purred.

Crap, Nirvana was right! You should have left sooner rather than later, her words were enticing, her body alluring, and her tone willing. The perfect combination for a sex romp that you’ve been denying your wanting penis for so long.

“I think maybe it’s still not right?” You don’t even believe yourself anymore.

“Shh~ here, let me take you to ze changing room, it’ll be fast I promise, and you’ll be back to work like easy peasy, trust me~” she purrs into your ear pulling herself up by pulling on your shoulders.

This isn’t right, you have to restrain yourself from this seductive woman! You’re stronger than this, you know there are better fish in the sea than here and you’re ready to say no!

“Okay, sure just a quick one I guess” you agree.

The thirst was real…

“Oh ze happy day is upon us. Come-come let us away to ze changing room post-haste while the day is now” Josephine squealed excitedly.

You nod your head like an idiot and Josephine jumps into your arms. Holding her like a giddy bride, she was already quick to work nuzzling your neck, and sucking away at it with her mouth and tongue, a hickey already evident just seconds upon moving her. As you walk away towards the changing room you glance at the children all smiling and whispering to one another. Some of them even giving you a thumbs up and a sort of ‘do your best’ knowing smile.

You enter the changing room with your partner, glancing at the few children currently in the middle of changing in or out of their swimsuits, but your eyes were still drawn to Josephine, seeing her up close, the strands of water dripping, and sliding down her bosom.

“Allow moi! *Ahem* Fire! Fire in ze pool! Ze pool is on fire! Run for your lives!” Josephine screamed.

Even children had a basic understanding of physics, could they possibly believe that a fire was spreading in a pool of water-

The children all cried and panic leaving the changing room immediately regardless of their nudity leaving just the two of you.

…

…Well, there’s also the possibility of a magic fire too right? I’m sure this wasn’t the first time the pool caught on fire on accident right?

“There, the showers we’ll be having the most room there for our faire l’amour~” Josephine moaned.

“Duh~ okay” you might as well be a horny caveman at this point.

You carry her over to the showers, but she’s already getting started unbuttoning your shirt and peppering your chest with quick kisses as her hot breath whenever she moans sends you to a daze.

You lay her down gently against the wet clay tile floor as her hand slips to her back while she giggles to herself.

“Whoops~ my bikini! Silly thing is always slipping off” Josephine laughs as sure enough her tiny bikini slides off her bod.

Her top falls to the floor freeing her large breasts and exposing her pert, pink nipples to you, and all you do is silently gaze at them like a thirsty horndog.

“Well don’t just stand there like a statue silly cheri, enjoy them, they are as much your as zey are mine” Josephine gave the go ahead as she lay on the floor, arms to the back of her head which caused her bosom to pop up a little more so than usual, a wink, a lick across her lips, and lidded eyes on flushed cheeks were more than enough of a ‘go ahead’ for you.

You don’t wait a moment longer and start squeezing and kneading her breasts like soft dough as her moans of pleasure means you’re doing at least something right

…unlike your actual job!

“Oh yes~ like that, it feels fantastique, your hands are so soft and dirty~” Josephine moans.

You bring your face close to her bosom and start licking at her nipples, eliciting a loud squeak as her body starts arcing forwards, forcing her teat into your mouth.

“Suck on them my beau man, suck them like you would a Holstaur’s teat! Use me like ze sex toy” Josephine loudly moaned, enjoying the attention.

Her tail flapped, and slapped against the floor, her curly pink hair splashed around her as her eyes shut. Her smile wide, and drooling a bit, a deep heat can be felt from her nether regions as her body squirms to your touch.

You do as she is told, suckling them and gripping them firmly in your mouth as you pull at her tits while your fingers go to work on her other breast. You feel her nipples harden against your tongue and fingers as she bites at her thumb to keep herself quiet, you suspect she’s quite a screamer if she didn’t do that. Her panting becomes evident, her face flushes crimson while her body glows with a soft pink as her body heat rises.

“Mmm~ more-more oh mon dieu this feels so good~work your tongue all over me! Taste me!” Josephine cries out.

Despite that she pulls you away from her chest much to your disappointment as then yanks you to the floor with her on top of you.

“Oh~zorry for interupting, but you got me going so good, now it is my turn to get to know you, a how you say~ a cultural exchange?” Josephine assures you.

“Whatever you want” you agree to her terms and conditions blindly.

“Oh so willing, you remind me of myself when I was younger…and today even-*giggle*. Open your mouth cheri” Josephine asks.

You do as the boobs tell you to and very quickly her tongue invades your mouth, and she starts frenching you like crazy.

A new wave of pleasure hits your body as her expert tongue goes to work, only stopping so she can strip you bare naked as well.

“Oh~-mm~ah~my-mouth~keep-ah~yes-mmm~” she tries to talk but continues to be interrupted by your mouth, and her own lust.

In the middle of all this you felt a cold breeze hit your lower half and you realize she had just pulled the last of your defenses off you, and she finally pulls herself out of your mouth allowing you to breathe once more.

“*Gasp~* oh my so hard, and ready for me. Let’s play with it some more oui?” Josephine says.

She takes her hand and gently grips your member and softly strokes it. Her palm and fingers feeling a million times better than your hand ever could. Slick with a substance that you could only suspect was her natural lubricant that kept her body moist on dry land. Her hand gripped you with a slippery touch while her other hand went to work massaging your balls.

“Does that feel good mon amour? Does my hand make a good job?” Josephine asks.

“I-incredible” you gasp your answer.

“Prove it, cum for me, dirty my hand with your spunk my chic man” Josephine begs.

She lays herself on your right side, her head nuzzling your chest, she stares up at you the whole time as her strokes become faster and her grip tightens. She pulls herself back to your face and continues to make out with you. But that’s not all that’s going on, inside your head, loud high pitch moans can be heard in your mind, but you’re so engrossed in the pleasure you don’t care too much for it as you reach your climax, your jizz making quite a mess of her hand, and lower half from over a week of hanging around here. Yet she doesn’t stop, milking you for as much cum as you can produce in your orgasm, your panting and grunts even more audible as an immeasurable wave pleasure ripples across your body until she is satisfied.

“Oh my~ so much, so fast. You poor man you must have been ignored for weeks” Josephine gasps.

She makes quick work of cleaning herself up, licking her hand with fervor as if it was coated with delicious nectar.

“Mmuah! Magnifique! Marvelous even! mon amour I must have more” Josephine squeals with delight.

Before you can object or even go soft she drags her body lower until her head is inches from your rod and starts working the shaft with her tongue.

“Stay hard for me mon amour’s love stick, feed my hungry tummy with your sticky goodness” Josephine spoke directly to your member.

Her skill really exceeds anything you felt, she felt pleasure in everything she did to you, making her motivated to press further. Her left hand squeezed and massaged at your balls, her tongue licked at your shaft in long slow dragging motions of her tongue, and her right hand, but more precisely her fingers twirled and lightly pinched at the tip leaving you on the brink on another orgasm in a short amount of time.

“*Ah~*, how is my service? I learned many from the French maids of my hometown, if you like I can call you master, I love role-playing-*Ah~*-*lick*” she quickly said before going back to work.

“G-gonna cum-again” you gasp.

“Oh! Here, in my mouth, do it in my mouth!” Josephine cried out plunging your dick into her mouth.

She immediately starts sucking and licking around your shaft, and all the while her eyes never leave your sight, she’s constantly staring at you as her head bobs up and down, faster and faster. At last you couldn’t take it and you unload even more in her mouth.

After some time she finally releases you, licking at her lips while savoring what’s left of your jizz still in her mouth.

“Oh~ so delicious, especially directly like that. But you are still hard? We can go just a wee bit longer no?” Josephine asks.

“O-okay, maybe just one more time?” You say.

“Yay! I knew you were ze perfect tour guide for your country, I promise it will only be one more time” Josephine assures you.

Six hours later…

You wake up in a room, your body aching and spent, your dick particularly felt numb and sore.

“Ah! You’re awake little one, I was afraid something like this would happen” you heard Katy’s voice.

You sit up from your bed only to crash back down from exhaustion, Katy sitting beside you on her tail places her hands on your chest and gently pushes you back to bed while she rubs at your chest.

“Stop, don’t push yourself so hard you need a little more time before the medicine can kick in” Katy said.

“Wha-what happened? How long was I out?” You ask.

“Well, what happened was, you and one of our staff had quite the adventure, so much so that you lost yourself entirely. By the time one of our other staff discovered you two. You passed out from exhaustion- I think Josephine just took a little after-sex nap though since she woke up long before you did. Long story short our resident doctor gave you some energy boosting medicine and something for your sore baby-shooter and you woke up just now, roughly after six hours staying asleep.

“K-Katy, I don’t know what to say, I screwed up” you grumble.

“Don’t beat yourself up about it little one, accidents happen, just learn from them and you’ll be fine. Might I suggest working on your resistance to our charms? Remember we already have the advantage on you from the get go. Also we have some nifty items at our little gift shop, feel free to purchase something for yourself” Katy assured.

“Thanks Katy, I’ll do better next time!” You assure her.

“I’ll do better next time too…” Chloe’s voice answered.

“Oh-what-Chloe! Are you alright? I completely forgot you were…do you look different?” You felt a cluster of emotions at once.

Chloe did appear slightly different than before. Her spiritual form was more clearer, and less transparent, more hues of white, blue, and black dominated her form, and even her tail seemed to have grown a few inches.

“Ah~ that explains it…you see as Josephine was explaining, and apologizing for her actions, she did mention at some point in your coitus that despite enduring multiple uh…climaxes, you didn’t secrete anything. It was as if something, or someone was siphoning your energy from the inside, and it was you little one” Katy said.

“B-but I didn’t mean it…” Chloe sounded rather guilty.

“I’m sure you didn’t, but once a ghost has a taste of spirit energy there’s very little to stop her from absorbing more the next time around. Since it’s basically considered a need for survival, on top of it feeling, and tasting splendidly, your body naturally absorbs regardless of the source” Katy said.

Now it was your turn to feel guilty.

“You mean that time I gave Chloe some of Mizari’s candy that was laced with spirit energy?” You recall.

“That would trigger her baser instincts as a ghost” Katy said.

“I think I read that part, but I wasn’t paying attention…” Chloe was ready to start crying.

“Oh~ don’t be sad little one, in fact there is a bright side to it…absorb enough of it, and your body, and powers develop exponentially! In fact when you return home I suggest you start exploring whatever new tricks you might be able to do that you couldn’t before” Katy suggested.

Chloe nodded, but still felt gloomy.

“I’m really sorry for the trouble I caused, I’ll be sure to resist better next time” you assure her.

“So long as you don’t say this won’t happen again, because I’m afraid there’s a good chance that it will. Also some of our children can help you combat these things as well, of course they may have to be coaxed with an adoption before they can do anything for you. I’ll give you some time to rest and you can just go home after that, it’s getting late after all” Katy said.

“Thanks Katy, again I’m really sorry about this” you apologize.

“It’s quite alright, and I’m sure we’ll be hearing from it very soon” Katy said.

“What do you mean?” You ask.

“Didn’t you know? Josephine hosts a blog site, it’s where she links her favorite erotic novels, and toys to share them with others online. She also streams live video chats where she experiments and plays with herself with sponsored toys gifted to her by various companies. She’s got quite a fanbase but what mamono doesn’t when they host a show? She also writes novels from time to time of her experiences with the men she meets, I’m fairly certain she is typing her adventures with your body right now as we speak and uploading it to the internet” Katy revealed.

Well this day officially sucked

You lost the entire day thanks to that event, you’re not even mad at Josephine but at yourself for letting it happen so easily. You drive home deep in contemplation of what to do next until you heard a sudden soft sobbing from inside yourself.

“(I’m sorry)” you heard Chloe sobbing in your head.

“Chloe there’s nothing for you to apologize for, this was my mistake” you correct her.

“B-but I could have gone for help!” Chloe cried out.

“I know, but like I said, I should have had more self control to begin with” you assure her.

“Not only that, but it was really strange” Chloe blurted out.

“What was strange?” You ask.

“W-when she made you feel good, it made me feel really good too! I didn’t want it to stop! A-and when I saw all that white stuff that came out of you, I wanted it too!” Chloe declared.

I suppose that was true, if she wasn’t lost to the pleasure she was sharing with your body she could have easily left and gone for help.

“Dad…am I a freak?” Chloe murmured.

“You are nothing like that Chloe, don’t ever assume so…none of this is nothing for you to feel upset about” you repeat.

“D-dad?” She pauses sounding confused.

“My body felt that way because I was weak, I couldn’t control myself and I couldn’t fight back against the immense pleasure, so of course you couldn’t either. I blame only myself for this. Chloe I’m not mad at you, I could never get mad at my little girl” you assure her.

“Oh! Daddy~” she cries anew feeling a wave of relief.

You return home still feeling a little blue with a hint of shame, halfway through the living room you realize you left the front door open.

“*Sigh* I’m not feeling myself today, gotta close that door” you grumble.

“I got it daddy” Chloe assures you.

You don’t even turn around, as you slip off your shoes and hear the door slam shut.

…

…Wait a minute…

“Wait a second, Chloe did you do that?” You ask turning around to face her.

“Yeah…cause you wanted it closed” Chloe said.

“B-but don’t you know what that means!?” You try to get her to understand.

She pauses, thinking hard about your words until she gasps loudly.

“I touched it! I actually moved something with my hands in over a year!” She squeals.

“You did it! I knew you would eventually!” You cheer.

“Daddy!” Chloe squeals zooming towards you.

You open your arms wide ready to grab her, only to feel her zip through you yet again.

“W-wha! What happened? I thought I could touch things again” Chloe said.

She waved her hands across your chest, but to no avail, it still went right through you, and freezing your insides.

“I-I guess you don’t have enough strength yet, but I almost felt you! Like very thick smoke I almost felt you” you assure her.

“Maybe it’s like Katy said?” Chloe said.

“Yeah, you got uh…more energy to use your powers with” you realize.

“Maybe being fed like that got me this far, we just got to keep doing it?” Chloe suggested.

“Well I don’t know about that, but I did promise to help you…just not like that” you say.

“It’s fine! We’ll just have to get you molested a few more times that’s all” Chloe said.

“…Or I could find an alternative” you reply instead.

“That works too” Chloe agrees.

The next couple of hours before bed was spent with your daughter helping her learn to focus her energy to grip, and hold items.

Such a trivial thing that people take for granted, seeing Chloe struggle to lift even a few sheets of paper was both sad, and uplifting at once.

Her radiant smile whenever she was able to keep her focus long enough to turn the pages of her books, to press a button on the television remote…

…The joy of feeling the palm of your hand with her finger for the first time. Perhaps you weren’t the best father, but at the very least you could learn from your mistakes, this time you lucked out, and something good came out of the whole ordeal.

But you are more determined than ever to not let yourself be distracted, or lured in by anything else that will hinder your abilities of being Chloe’s father.

At last she couldn’t keep herself from staying up, and right around her bed time she retreated her bedroom to sleep once more. Making sure she could flick the light switch on her room on and off, you bid her a good night, and left to your own bedroom to sleep, and prepare for the next day.
