The next few days were challenging with dad home all the time. It was difficult having to hide the bond Nicole and I shared because we are always alone.

I always made sure to spend the night in her room secretly so she would not feel alone and makes sure that she did not into little space around our father.

It was a Saturday morning and dad had just left for a golf tournament, golf tournament meant spending the night out with his friends until the next day. That meant Nicole and I had the house to ourselves for the whole day. The moment I heard his car pull out of the drive way, I went straight to Nicole's room.

She would definitely still be asleep but today I can wake my baby girl and get her ready for the day like we usually do. Opening the door quietly, I walked in and saw in asleep in bed. Her hair was in pigtails and she had a tiny shorts and top on as night wear, her pacifier was just beside her pillow. Blankets tangled around her legs

"Good morning, baby girl." I whispered sitting on the bed beside her. Nic whined and turned away, trying to sleep back. "Wake up, baby. Dad's not home and we can have a tea party after breakfast today." I said to her.

Nicole opened her eyes immediately, smiling brightly, all trace of sleep gone from her face. "Really?"

"Really, really." I chuckled pulling her up into my lap. She snuggled into my chest and I pressed a kiss on her forehead. I miss our morning cuddles. "What do you want to do today after breakfast baby girl?"

Nicole looked at me, her big eyes filled with innocence. She was completely in her little space now. "Can we have a tea party, daddy?" She asked.

"Sure thing, baby girl. But first we have to get ready for the day. So would you be a good girl and go brush then bath while I pick out your clothes for the day and the tea party." I told her unwrapping my arms from her back.

"Okay daddy, I want to wear something puwple." She said getting off my lap.

I walked into the closet and picked out a lavender short-sleeved T-shirt with cute graphics of unicorns, rainbows and glitters, purple trousers with a subtle pattern of small hearts. Her shoes were a white sneakers with purple pattern design on them and a headband with purple bow.

Placing them all on the bed, I left to the play room to set everything up for the tea party.

Since we did not have the small tables and chair suitable for a tea party. I placed the lowest table in the room in the center then placed pillows around it as chairs for the guest. Grabbing Mr Oopa and few other stuff is as guests with space for me and her.

I took out the tea cups and pot set from the box, since we bought it, she has always wanted to try it. Once it's time, I will bring up some cookies as snacks.

I went back to my baby girl's room and she was all dressed up waiting in front of her dressing table. "What style would you like to do today?" I asked as I plugged in the hair dryer and began to blow dry her hair.

"Three ponytails, daddy. Thank you." She said politely. "Three ponytails coming right up."

Soon I finished, the ponytails had two beside each other in front and the last one at the back. I wore her head band for her and a few beautifier like butterflies and flowers.

We went down to have breakfast, Daisy was in the kitchen busy.

" Good morning Daisy!" Nic greeted, very excitedly. "Good morning, Nic. How was your night?" Daisy smiled at her excitement.

"It was good." Nicole replied

Daisy placed our breakfast in front of us all, breakfast burrito. Nicole squeals and thanks Daisy before she began to eat.

I was not worried about Nicole being little in Daisy's presence as she knew all about my lifestyle and I told her that Nicole is a little, surprisingly for me. She did not have any objections to our other relationship like she knew something.

After breakfast, we sat in the living room watching a random show on the television to relax from a very full and yummy breakfast.

Nicole, eager to start her tea party turned to me and asked, "Daddy, can we go up now?"

"Okay, baby girl. Let me get the cookies and we can start our tea party." I replied.

Walking into the kitchen, I saw that Daisy has already placed out the cookies on a plate for me with a protective cover over them.

Picking the plate of cookies, I went to get Nic and we went up the stairs to the playroom.

Nicole eyes shone bright with happiness when she noticed all that I set up for her, we quickly took our seat. Me to the right of Nic and Mr Oopa to her left.

For the next hour, we played in her little world. I played my role well as her guest and complimented her for serving such amazing cookies and tea for the party.

Asking about the latest news in the animal Kingdom she had animatedly created with the stuffed animals. She giggled non-stop as she replied me, telling me about everything and anything.

But as the day went on, I noticed Nicole became a little quieter than usual. After the tea party, she crawled into my lap as she began to suck on her thumb.

"What's wrong, baby girl?" I asked stroking her hair. "You seem.... off."

She hesitated, her eyes fixed down as she fiddled with the button of her trousers. "It's just that........ We are always hiding from our dad, what if he finds out and takes me away." She said.

My heart ached at her words. She was right, tiptoeing around dad and hiding this from him won't be forever and he doubt that he would understand our dynamics.

" I know, baby girl." I sighed, holding her close. " I don't like it either, but let's just keep it a secret until the right time."

Nicole nodded against my chest but I knew she was still nervous about it all.

To cheer her up, I suggested we bake some cookies. Since we had finished the ones Daisy made for us and maybe some other pastries too. Her eyes brightened and she jumped off my lap, holding my hands to pull me up so we could go down to the kitchen. I followed her, glad to see her mood change.

Nicole 💜

Baking with Daddy was always so much fun, he let me do the mixing even though flour got every where. We made cookies, tarts and brownies. Daddy and I cleaned up together when everything was already in the oven baking.

Once they were all ready, we kept the tart and brownies for desserts.

Sitting in the living room on the couch as we cuddled together, we ate the warm cookies with milk and watched a barbie movie.

But I wasn't really watching it. Even though it's my favourite.

I snuggled into daddy's side, feeling content. "Daddy?" I asked softly.

"Yeah, baby girl."

"Do you think....... Dad really likes me?" I asked.

He looked down at me, surprised by the question. "Of course he likes you, why wouldn't he?"

I shrugged, biting my lips. "I don't know, sometimes it feels like, being here is.... an inconvenience for him."

Daddy frowned and turned to face me completely, pulling me into his lap. "You are NOT an inconvenience, Nicole. Okay, dad is just like that. Always in and out and not that good at expressing. You mean a lot to me, you are my baby girl and will always be. Nothing or no one can change that."

His words made my heart swell and I felt a few tears run down my cheeks. Daddy used his thumb to wipe them off as he held my face in his palm. Smiling softly, he whispered." I love you baby girl, more than you know. "

" I love you too, daddy. " I whispered burying my face in his chest. He raised my head up and our lips met in a soft kiss.

We cuddled and continued watching the movie. The movie finally ended and I yawned feeling sleepy. Daddy noticed and he carried me and we went up the stairs.

We got into bed together to nap for a while. He clipped my pacifier to my top and we fell asleep together.

The soft rays of the evening sun peeked through the curtains, gently waking me from a cozy nap. I glanced down to see Nicole nestled against me, her small frame rising and falling gently with her breath. She looked so peaceful, her pomytails slightly disheveled from our earlier playtime, and a content smile graced her lips as she dreamed.I took a moment to admire her, my heart swelling with love.

Just as I was about to brush a strand of hair from her face, her eyes fluttered open, and she blinked up at me, confusion giving way to recognition.

“Daddy?” she murmured, her voice still thick with sleep.“Hey, baby girl. Did you sleep well?” I asked softly.“Yeah,” she replied, stretching and yawning adorably. “What time is it?”

"It's almost dinner time."

I helped her sit up, and she rubbed her eyes.“Can we eat the brownies and tarts we made?” she asked, her face lighting up with excitement.“Of course! But first, let’s see what Daisy made for dinner,” I replied, leading her downstairs.

The smell of something delicious wafted through the air as we approached the kitchen.

As we entered, we found Daisy in the kitchen, busy plating up a delicious spread.

She looked up and smiled at us. “Well, look who finally woke up! Dinner’s almost ready.”“Hi, Daisy! What’s for dinner?” Nicole asked, her excitement palpable.

“Your favorite—spaghetti with homemade meatballs and garlic bread,” Daisy replied, a warm smile on her face. “And for dessert, we have the brownies and tarts you two made earlier.”

My baby girl was eager to eat that she quickly took her seat in the dining table.

Daisy placed the steaming bowls of spaghetti in front of us. The aroma was heavenly, and my stomach rumbled in response.

“Dig in!” Daisy encouraged us, taking a seat across the table.Nicole wasted no time and twirled her spaghetti around her fork, a look of concentration on her face. “This is so good, Daisy! You’re the best cook!” she exclaimed, her mouth full.

“Thank you, sweetie. I’m glad you like it!” Daisy said, beaming at her enthusiasm.

"Don't speak with your mouth full baby girl." I said to her.

She quickly chewed and swallowed before mumbling a sorry but soon concentrated on her food.

After the table was cleared, we had our desserts.

We ate finished and helped Daisy to clean up before going up to our respective rooms to clean up for bed.

After we finished, I noticed Nicole yawning, her eyelids growing heavy.

“Ready for bed, baby girl?” I asked gently, noticing her sleepy demeanor.“Yeah, but can we cuddle a little more?” she asked, her voice soft and pleading.

“Of course,” I replied, pulling her into a warm embrace.

Laying in her together, enjoying the warmth and comfort of each other’s presence. I held her close, running my fingers through her hair, and she snuggled into my side, her pacifier clipped to her pajama top.

After a few moments of comfortable silence, I could feel her breathing slow as she drifted off to sleep. I smiled softly, cherishing this perfect moment.

I also fell asleep hugging her close to me.
