Daddy? Daddy? I know I did not just hear Daddy.

I jumped up so quick you would have thought I had a twitch. Darious was off of me in the blink of an eye and he just sat besde me looking lost. The little grl that stood in the doorway was the spitting image of him. Besides from the age difference and the fact that she was a female, they could have been twins. I sat looking dumbfounded running all the conversations that we had had today through my mind, none of them involved a daughter.

The little girl walked over to darious and climbed up in his lap. She had big brown eyes and long pretty hair. She was the cutest thing and I found myself forgetting for a second that I had no idea about  her. But wen darious looked at me, i remembered suddenly, just from the apologetic look on his face.

"Mia, this is kayla, shawns sister"

"Kayla this is Mia, my daughter"

Just the word daughter made me get goosebumps. "Hi Mia"

"Hi Kayla, do you wanna go to the zoo too?"

I shook my head no. "Maybe another time sweetie"

"Umm... Mia we can go to the zoo next weekend, Go tell grandma to get you some cookies in the meantime."

"Cookies!" She ran out of the room and Darious waited until he heard he footsteps stop at the end of te steps before he kept going.

He turned to me and I stood up. "Maybe I should go"

"Not until you hear me out"

"You have a three year old daugher... whats there to hear out"

"She's four"

"Oh wow great, a thirteen year old father"

He grabbed my arm and pulled me over to the bed. "Just give me two minutes, then you can go"

I looked from him to the door. I knew that if I stayed, hatever bullshit story he decided to throw at me  I might believe it no matter what it was. Then again if I left now I'd never know the story. So I sat down. "Two minutes..."

"Okay, This wasnt planned at all. About five years ago, I met this girl. Her name was Chyanne. Me and your brother both liked her, he knew her before I did, they had a class together or something. There was this party, all the kids were going and I decided it would be fun. When I got there she was the first person I noticed. We talked and we got close."

'Please spare me the details"

"Not close like that, I mean we had alot in common. Anyway, a few weeks went by and we were young so of coarse, we both wanted to have sex. It was both of our first times, so we knew about condoms and protection, and I did buy it. It was supposed to be special... and it was. After that a good 2 months went by and Chyanne and her mom just up and moved. No one had a clue that they were going."

"Where did they go?"

"Well to this day I dont know. But, a good year went by and I started gettng weird letters in the mail saying stuff like "Im so sorry it had to be this way" and "Im glad it was you". It should have been obvious who it was from but It wasnt because in that year I had been through about 10 girlfriends and I had had sex with half of them. It could have been any of them. Then I started gettng pictures in the mail... baby pictures. The little girl looked just like me and I started getting really nervous. I told my mother everything that had happened and she said to just wait it out, so i did."

"And..."

"A few months went by and... She called out of nowhere. She told me everything about how her mom found out she was pregnant, and she made her move because she was scred to tell her who the father was and her mom didnt know who to trust."

I saw the look on his face as he got to this part of the story. He almost looked like he wanted to break down and cry.

"she told me she was sick... with cancer, and she said it was serious. She said that she wanted me to have my daughter, before she was gone so that her mom couldnt object to it after she was gone. I agreed that I thought that was best too. Weeks went by and I still hadnt heard from her, then one night there was a knock at the door. When I opened it there was a baby in a carseat, sleeping. I looked around but there was no one around. There was a bag with a birth certificate, clothes, diapers, pictures, and a sorts of stuff."

"Wow..."

"I waited for her to call the next day but she didnt. Her mom called a week later though..."

"Well what did she say?"

"She told me Chyanne passed away the day after she dropped the baby off. She told me that it was her dying wish that She call and tell me."

I was in shock and I didnt know what to say. I gave him a hug. "Im so sorry."

"It was hard but my mom helped me and I got through it."

He looked at me weird and I got uneasy under his stare.

"But there is somethng thats bothering me..."

"What, whats wrong?"

"Its... about you"
