“Advice is what we ask for when we already
know the answer, but wish we didn’t.”
“There he is,” she said to Nadine as she leaned down to her face.
They both walked towards Flynn who must have had an idea the girl was his – he
followed each of their steps as they came closer.
Emma’s knees grew weaker with every step. What if she couldn’t say a word, either?
My, he looked gorgeous. She took Nadine’s hand and stopped in front of Flynn, noticing how the girl moved more and more behind her. “Flynn McCormack?” Emma asked.
***
Surprised, Flynn turned from the child to the young woman. “Yes.”
“How are you? I’m Emma, and this is–” she pointed at Nadine, “–this is Nadine. I’ve
been looking after her and I was asked–”
Ignoring Nadine’s companion, he kneeled down in front of the girl and rested his arm on his leg. “Hey, little Muffin!”
“Hi.” Nadine’s reply was shy, nothing more than just a whisper.
They both looked at each other.
“Are you my dad?” Nadine asked with slightly more voice, but still hiding behind
Emma.

How sweet. I can’t wait to hear his response.
thank you 🙂
It certainly doesn’t look like he’s going to reject her. Great scene — I could see her, and hear her voice.
thank you, PT. This means a lot to me 🙂
Very sweet!
Thank you, Aurora.
Okay I need to know. He is her dad. I be back next week for sure.
LOL … I look forward to seeing you here 🙂 Thanks Cecilia.
Awwww… “Hey, little muffin.” How sweet! Now how will he answer the question?
I hope he will :-). Thanks for stopping by.
Oh, this has me by the heart! Can’t wait for more.
Thank you, Joyce. Glad you liked it.
A nice beginning.
They’re not quite there yet 🙂 Thanks for stopping by, Elaine.
Wow, that’s even more poignant than the earlier snippets. Great job, Iris. 🙂
Oh, Siobhan, thanks for the comment. Really appreciate it!
This is a very gentle yet emotional scene.
Thanks, Ed. Much appreciated.
Awwww. Such a sweet scene. I sense everything’s going to be all right for little Nadine (and Emma and Flynn)! 🙂
Let’s hope so 😉 Thank for stopping by.
A very bittersweet moment with that innocent question wrenching at the heart.
Thanks, Chelle. Much appreciated.
Aww, I like his approach to the little girl, very sweet and warm. Great snippet
Thank you 🙂
I wonder why he just blew off Emma, but I’m glad to see he seems as if he’s going to accept the child as his own now. Great description of Nadine’s reaction as well, very realistic.
He didn’t blew her off, but focussed on the little girl first, which is the correct way in this situation. But …. he’ll redeem himself with Emma 🙂 Thanks for stopping by.
