A little girl came out. Early. Like really early. So much for thinking toddlers sleep in. She looked at me. "Where's daddy?"
"He won't be back for a while."
She interrupted me by wandering to the radio. I must have been playing my album last night. She picked up the case and saw me in my Dead Riding Hood outfit. "Is this you?"
"Yeah it is."
"My daddy is in a band too."
"Really? Cool!"
She wandered over and picked up a CD and swapped them out. What i heard next had something click in my head.
When I was a young boy,
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said, "Son when you grow up,
Would you be the savior of the broken,
The beaten and the damned?"
He said "Will you defeat them,
Your demons, and all the non-believers,
The plans that they have made?"
"Because one day I'll leave you,
A phantom to lead you in the summer,
To join The Black Parade."
Oh my god. Im babysitting Gerard Arthur fucking Way's daughter. But what about Lyn-Z? Then it hit me. Gerard hasn't been wearing his wedding ring lately. Oh my god. Gerard and Lyn-Z called it quits! I smiled and then Bandit wanted to go to the park. So we left.
