Chapter 84 – Where Is Daddy?

(Anj‘s POV)

My eyes were glued to my children as they packed their own backpacks with their toys and books, thethings they wanted to bring to the island. If only I could tell them I hadn‘t heard of him since he left thenursing home.

This is what I wanted, for him not to show up and for us not to see each other anymore, but this would bethe first time I wished I didn‘t have to say something terrible or morbid to my

girls.

“Mommy, what time will Daddy come?” Selene turned to me.

I blinked.

If my daughter asked what chemicals made up the sky, I could answer her right away, but as to whattime or whether Sky would come, I do not know the answer.

“Daddy said to ask Aunt Anya and Uncle Dylan to come, and we should bring only our favorite toys,”Leyanne said. “But Mommy, we also bring some books.” I smiled nervously. “You can bring anythingyou want, baby.”

Lyra Helene went to the window, propped her elbows, and pressed her cheeks in her arms.” Whyaren’t you preparing, Mommy?” she asked without looking at me.

“I‘ll prepare later,” I answered, glancing at my cellphone and cursing on it quietly. He should have at leasttold me what to say to the girls.

“But Daddy said we should be ready at three. Uncle Dylan and Aunt Anya are ready.” Lyra Helene saidlazily.

“Daddy said he‘ll be picking us up at three,“Selene joined Lyra Helene, waiting for a car to stop in front ofthe house.

“What?” My eyes widened, suddenly speechless. My hands trembled as I picked up my cell phone, and Icouldn‘t make my finger swipe the screen to call him.

My heart skipped a beat when I heard the sound of the car finally stopping in the driveway. My eyesclosed, breathing out in relief. “Uncle Finn!” Lyra Helene shouted.

Finn? Is Finn coming too? Slowly, I walked toward the window to see him getting out of the car, lookinghandsome in his V–neck shirt and khaki shorts. He pulled off his sunglasses, and as our gazesconnected, he smiled, showing that same grin Sky has, my daughters have.

“Ready, kids?” He yelled from the outside.

My girls squealed in excitement and took their bags, leaving me by the window and running toward thedoor to meet Finn. I took a deep breath as I waited for another man to leave the car, but no one elsecame out. I walked slowly toward the door, hating the feeling of being disabled because of my ankle,

although I could walk without pain now as I was almost healed. When I reached the foyer, I saw Anyaand Dylan in their summer look attire with their bags.

“Beach, here I come!” I heard Anya singing toward the door.

“Do I really have to come?” Dylan groaned at her, shaking his head as she looked at her from head totoe. “Do you really have to wear that?”

Anya was wearing a pink rib–knit halter top and denim short shorts, revealing her skin, and I could sayshe was really attractive, making me wonder why Dylan had never thought of giving her attention.

She sneered at him. “If I were Sky, I wouldn‘t want to invite you. You‘re a competitor,” she hissed butpoked him in his abs, smiling naughtily. “Where‘s Daddy?” Leyanne asked, stopping me from walking.Finn squatted in front of her. “Daddy sent me to pick you up. He couldn‘t come because he has aveeerrry important meeting.”

I lowered my eyes as I thought of Sky finally coming to his senses, not meeting us anymore but fulfillingmy children‘s wish of going to the beach. “Daddy‘s not coming, right?” There was a pain in Lyra Helene‘svoice. I panicked, walking toward them. “Of course, he is. He made a promise,” I turned to Finn.“ Right,Finn?” I widened my eyes, hoping he got the message.

He stood up, not answering me. Instead, he narrowed his eyes, raised his eyebrows, and pursed his lips.“You‘re not coming to the beach wearing that, right?” “What‘s wrong with my clothes?” I asked him as Ilooked at my oversized T–shirt and pajamas.

He smirked. “You seemed not to get the message, Ms. Perry. It‘s a beach party, not a slumber party.” Heheaved a deep sigh and turned to my children. “I‘m just a messenger who volunteered to come and getyou and bring you to the island safely. Let‘s just hope the Daddy is not lying, and he will come in time.”

Leyanne and Selene quietly followed him to the car, but Lyra Helene walked back to me and raised herarms. When I carried her, she buried her face in my neck. She was not crying, but her fear andpain radiated to my heart, making me want to hate Sky. He should have at least told me his plans. Icould have prepared myself for this.

Dylan approached me and took Lyra Helene from me, and like my two girls, he quietly walked towardthe driveway with Anya.

I grabbed my bag, not bothering to change clothes, and walked toward the door, locking it beforeheading to the SUV. I squeezed in at the passenger seat at the back and turned to my quiet childrenbefore nodding to Finn that we were all set to go. I sighed, considering a seven seater car like this since Icould not stop my kids from growing. Finn nodded to the driver. “To the airport, Harvey.”

“Airport?” I uttered in surprise.

Chapter 84 Where is Deddy?

Finn peeked at me. “As much as Sky loves sailing, he didn‘t want his kids to travel late in this lateafternoon by boat. So, I‘ll be flying you there by plane.” “You?” My eyes were filled with horror as Iimagined Finn in the cockpit. “Flying us there?”

He laughed and shook his head. “Wrong choice of word, ma‘am. Sorry. A licensed pilot would be flyingus to the island.” I rolled my eyes at Finn. “He should have told me his plans,” I muttered angrily. Finnshrugged. “He never really shares his plan, Ms. Perry. All I know is this trip is Dad‘s gift to the girls.” Hewinked at Leyanne. “Grandpa‘s gift to the girls.” When she didn‘t smile, he took a deep breath. “Maybemy gift will make you smile.” I wanted to smack Finn in the head, but I gathered all the patience left inmy senses not to hurt him in front of my kids. “Leyanne, can you see the box beside you?” Heasked. “Uh–huh!” She answered, only her eyes were moving as she stared at the box. “Open it,” hesaid and sat upright, facing the road. Dylan, Anya, and I turned our heads, peering at them asLeyanne opened the lid of the box. She gasped, and her sisters looked at her, wanting to knowwhat was inside. “Mommy!” she said excitedly as she took the white Labrador retriever puppy inher arms. “Look, Selene, Lyra Helene, we‘re having a puppy on our birthday.” Her sisters squealedin delight, thrilled to see and hold the adorable dog with a pink collar on her neck

“Why did you put her in the box, Uncle Finn? She could have died.” Selene said worriedly, her eyesstill wide as she stared at the box.

“Mommy, she‘s still a baby. You think her mommy will look for her?” Lyra Helene asked. Withoutwarning, tears fell down my cheeks. “I don‘t think so, baby,” I uttered in a hushed tone, wiping mytears, but it was like something hit my chest so hard that I wanted to cry. I hate Finn. I hate Sky. Ihate my Mom! The puppy whined, but Selene cuddled her right away, making it quiet. “Don‘t worry; we‘lltake care of you.” My kids have forgotten Sky for a while as they become busy thinking of thepuppy‘s name. Anya and Dylan were quiet, not wanting to talk to me because they knew I wantedspace, even for a few hours.

We reached the airport by four, where a private jet awaited us. “There‘s the ride I like,” Anya smiledas she got out of the car, following Finn in the pilot’s direction.
