— Jamie's POV —
Friday, early afternoon. It's a nice, sunny day. Along with my 4-year-old daughter Dulcie, we have a little trip through New York's streets. More specifically - through every toy store that's on our way. We are here for two weeks, and we stay in my apartment. I just want to spend a great quality dad - daughter time.
- Daddy, thank you for this doll. I can't wait to show it to Lexi and Ava! - my daughter's smile is everything to me.
- You're welcome, honey. And be patient, in like a week we will be back in London, and then you will show them your amazing new toy.
- Hey, dad, it's not a usual toy! It's a princess! - she frowns and pouts. I swear, Dulcie trying to look angry is one of the cutest things ever.
- Okay, you're right, lady, excuse me. She's a princess, just like you - I smile widely, reaching into my pocket. I feel my phone vibrating. Oh, 1 new message from my wife.
1:37pm
from: Amelia
Elva just said "I miss my handsome daddy". Regret you couldn't hear that, she's too cute!
I smile to the phone. My daughters mean the world to me. I also adore my wife, but we both do realize that we are more like best friends than lovers. Strong feelings, sexual tension between us - all of it doesn't exist since lots of months.
- Honey, stop for a moment. Daddy has to write a message - we stand on a pavement. I start typing, and bored Dulcie sings her favorite song.
- Let it go, let it go, can't hold it back anymore! Let it go, let it go, turn away and slam the door, I don't care what they're... HEY!!!
I immediately raise my head, looking at my daughter running towards... Oh lord. Oh my dear lord. This can't be happening. No.
- Dakota!!! Dakota, I missed you! - my daughter exclaims loudly that I can hear her, although I'm kind of far away. I walk towards them slowly, like in trance.
- Oh my baby girl, I missed you too! - she lifts her up and kisses her cheek. - Wow, you've grown up so much! And your beautiful hair! It's so long now! - they giggle.
Oh god. She really is there. Really.
- Thank you, your hair is long too! And you know what? Daddy bought me a new doll! You wanna see?! - Dulcie wraps her hands around Dakota's neck, all happy.
The woman says a joyful "Sure!" and starts gawking at me, as I finally stand next to them.
- Dakota... Hi, I am so... Surprised to see you. Positively, of course - I say nervously, watching her reaction. Her face is totally inert.
- Hey Jamie. - Damn. Her voice is cold. So cold.
- Daddy, show her my doll! - Dulcie jumps off Dakota's arms and takes a bag that I carry. Johnson ignores me, not taking eyes off my daughter. Okay Dornan, now or never.
- Can we go somewhere and talk? - I ask quickly, knowing that I have a few seconds until Dulcie starts talking again. Dakota stares deeply in my eyes. I can't read anything from her face. Damn...
- Just look at my doll! What do you think her name should be? - Dakota turns eyes on my daughter and her expression instantly changes. She smiles widely in a motherly way.
- Oh god! This doll is incredibly beautiful, Dulcie! You chose it by yourself?
- Yes! I just went to the store and there were millions of dolls, but I wanted the prettiest one so here it is! - she smiles proudly.
- Oh babygirl, you chose a doll with one of the most beautiful dresses I've seen. Your taste is literally amazing. Maybe someday you will work for Gucci, huh? - they both giggle, although I'm sure Dulcie doesn't know what Gucci is.
