“ Yes he is mommy as he got me a kitty, and he is the only man to show any love towards me by doing that.” Lindsey says as I feel a warmness in my heart
“ Look I don’t mind being your Daddy sweetie.” I tell her as Allison looks at me with concern before I continue “ Allison see that little boy with brown hair that’s one of my brother’s kids. I took him in as my own son. So it doesn’t bother me to take little Lindsey in as my own.”
“ You sure as I don’t want you to think I am trying to get a hand out?” She asks as I shake my head
“ It’s totally ok as my family would take her in also as she is cute.” I say as she starts to relax
We talk for a little while more until she says her and Lindsey had to go as she wanted to do a little window shopping. I look at my kids and see deep concern in Karen’s eyes for her new friend. I reach for my wallet and take out one of my cards telling her to stay in contact with me as she feels like family. I also pull out 4 one hundred dollar bills out and wrap them around the card. I hand it all to Allison who looks at me oddly. I tell her to think of it as a birthday gift for Lindsey from her new siblings.
Allison shows tears as she gives me a hug as Lindsey hugs my left leg. Allison thanks me saying she will keep in touch. She gives the kids hugs as I give Lindsey one. Karen gives Lindsey one with tears saying she hoped to see her again. I know this is going to be rough for my kids as they have hearts like I do. The kind that accepts someone to love as a friend or family. I pick up Karen as she cries on my right shoulder as I see Allison pick Lindsey who does the same.
“ Why daddy….why does she have to go.” Karen says through tears as I rub her back
“ Honey she lives else where. Tell you want when Allison calls I’ll let you talk to Lindsey how’s that honey?” I say asking my little princess
“ Really daddy? I can talk to her?” Karen asks as I nod kissing her forehead
I pick up the bag as the boys grab hands and follow me and Karen. I knew it would be rough for my daughter as she accepted Lindsey. I still can’t get over I have seen Allison before, but where I have no idea. As I shrug it off for now I ask my guardian angel to watch over Allison and Lindsey as for some reason I felt they needed a protector.
To Be Continued…….Who is Allison? Who is this woman that Heath seems to think he seen before?
