Shifted Fate Novel

Chapter 353 I sat on the porch with a glass of wine , watching the sunset over the water .

The sky was a dark blue with a dusky pink over by the fading sun .

The door opened , and Wendy and Toya settled next to me .

Carly ? Toya took a deep drink from her wineglass .

In bed .

I sighed and wiped my face .

Back in her make shift canopy bed ? Wendy took a smaller sip from hers .

Yeah .

I sighed .

My mother went crazy with the blankets Wendy and Toya laughed .

She used to do the same in my room when I missed my dad .

She sent for blankets and made this blanket fort over my bed .

I closed my eyes and I could still smell it .

It made me feel safe , and like I was back with my dad .

It helped that much ? Toya swirled her wine and looked over at me .

I nodded .

The tents layer the scent inside .

You are surrounded by it .

And she has her bear .

Wendy sniffled .

Are you crying ? Toya turned to her , and she nodded .

Why ? .

She laughed .

Is it bad to say that Im jealous ? We both turned to face her , and she stood , pacing away from us .

My dad , I lost him when I was young , and my goddess , do I still miss him ? But I didnt have his scent , or a teddy bear with his voice .

And I know its stupid to be jealous of a little girl who had to watch her father die .

But I am .

She turned to us with tears on her face .

I wish I could hear his voice again .

Wendy .

We both stood and hugged her .

Its okay to feel that way .

Toya pulled back .

Its okay to miss your dad .

She nodded , but her sobs broke a little part of me .

So I tried something I had never tried before .

I tried to call Wendys father to this side of the veil .

I wasnt going to say anything , because I honestly didnt think it would work .

I didnt even know his name .

Wendy … I wrapped my arms around her .

Its okay .

Lady bug ? I felt Wendy freeze .

Toya and I looked up to find a man with Wendys eyes and crazy hair standing at the other end of the porch .

Is that you ? His voice was hopeful , and I felt my friend tremble .

She slowly turned and faced the man .

Daddy ? Is that really you ? Her words were a whisper , but I could hear the hope in her words .

He looked around , and then back at her .

I dont know how Im here .

But yeah , its me .

Wendy sprinted from us to him in a second , and I winced as she tumbled through him .

Wendy .

I called after her as she hit the wall .

Its just his spirit .

I cant bring someone back , not really .

But it is my dad ? She looked between me and him .

I raised my shoulder in a shrug .

I dont honestly know .

She looked at me , and I could see pain in her eyes .

I wish I could tell you for certain , but Ive never met the man I can tell you I called for your father specifically , and this is the man that showed up .

I can also tell you that if I have called someone forward , they show up .

But yo will have to tell us if he is your dad .

Wendy looked at the man , and leaned in closer , staring deeply into his eyes .

The more they stood next to each other , the more I could see the similarities .

Toya nodded to the door and I agreed .

We turned and grabbed our glasses of wine and then turned back when Wendy whispered .
