Added into Daddy’s Life novel Chapter 11

Michael's P.O.V.

I can't believe it's been a full week since I brought Mya here. Everything has been great. I mean yes there was a lot of tears shed but I helped her through it.

Sadly, I have to go out of town for the weekend because my father needs to arrange a business deal in Detroit. I want to bring Mya so bad but we wont be able to spend time together at all so Harry said he'll watch her for me. Thank the Lord for Harry.

I looked down at the small puppy in my arms. I just got him this morning from one of my best friends, David. His dog just had babies about four months ago and he said I could have this cute little one. Since I was leaving I wanted to give Mya something that would keep her company.

"woof-woof" the little guy yelped wagging his tail. "No no mister you have to stay quiet because we don't want the little princess to hear you now do we?" He licked my face in response causing me to chuckle. He's so sweet. I stood holding the pup in my arms tightly as I walked over to my office closet. I carefully placed him in one of the boxes leaving the top slightly open so that he had some air. I closed the door silently praying that he would keep quiet. I sat back at my desk and called Mya.

"Mya princess can you home to daddy's office for a minute?"

"Coming daddy" she called faintly. I heard her little feet quickly pad against the floor as she ran over to me. "Hi daddy hellooo!!!" I chuckled lifting her up on my lap. "Hi baby girl how are you today?" She smiled widely, "I fine daddy. GG (she calls Giselle GG) gave me yummy crackers and a big giant cookie." I smiled matching her excitement and joy. "Is that so....?" She nodded happily. I sighed. Now I need to tell her.

"Baby I need to talk to you for a minute."

She looked up at me with worried eyes. "You ok daddy?" I nodded trying to relax her. "Yes sweetheart everything is fine. However, you know that daddy works right?" She nodded not breaking eye contact. "Well sometimes daddy doesn't always have control over what happens at work and he has to follow the rules." I kissed her forehead. "Baby daddy had to go out of town for the weekend."
