The Wrath Of The Shadow Wolf
CHAPTER TEN – LIVING AGAIN
It was a beautiful Friday afternoon and the sun was shining so brightly and lovely. Wright was at the back of the house mowing the grasses in the garden.
He had returned home from work earlier than usual today so as to spend some time with his daughter, Riona. He feels that it has been a long time since he had been home to welcome her back from school and so, he intends to do that today.
The school bus honked to announce Riona’s arrival from school. He left what he was doing and quickly washed and dried his hands on a towel as he wanted to be the one to personally open the door for Riona. After he was done with taking care of his hands, he left the garden to go open the door for Riona.
Wright was sure that this would be a surprise for Riona, and he so much desired to see the look of excitement on her face when he opened the door for her as she would not be expecting to meet him at home by this time.
In his excitement, he whistled as he entered the sitting room to go and open the door for Riona.
At the sight of her dad, Riona was surprised and at the same time was very happy to see her dad at home. She immediately jumped on him and he carried her.
“Hey dad good afternoon” Riona greets as she jumps on his body.
“Hello honey you are welcome back from school” Wright replied.
“You are home already. Is anything the matter?” Riona inquired.
“Aren’t you happy to see daddy back?” Wright asked.
“Of course I am. I would even want this to be a routine between us, I love it when you welcome me back home” Riona said in excitement.
“And I am glad to welcome my princess back home” Wright replied.
He gently placed Riona back on her feet and they walked into the house.
“So are you always going to be around when I come back from school?” Riona inquired.
“Hmn… let’s say I will always give you a princess welcome whenever I can spare some time to” Wright said.
“Really daddy?” Riona asked.
Riona was so excited to hear her dad make a promise to welcome her whenever he could and she silently prayed that it would be this way every other day.
“Yes Rio. What else makes me happier than to see the glow on my baby’s face?” Wright replied.
“That would be great dad. And nothing else makes me happy than seeing you around me. It gives me hope and some inner peace” Riona said.
“Talking about hope and some inner peace, what about I say we play games and watch movies the entire day, just you and I?” Wright suggested.
“Okay” Riona said as she tried to consider her dad’s offer.
“Come on Rio, don’t say no. tomorrow is Saturday and you aren’t going to school” Wright tries to persuade her.
“Of course I am not going to say no, my reply is a big yes” Riona exclaimed.
She finds it funny that her dad would actually think that she was going to say no when she would have given her all for this moment.
“So what do you say, would we do the movies here, or should we visit the cinema?” Wright asked.
“I would say been in-door would be just great. So I suggest we watch the movies right here, in our home and by ourselves” Riona replied.
“Okay, I vote for that too” Wright concurred to Riona’s suggestion.
