The next evening, those dark blue eyes that belong to Nick opened because of his daughter's childish voice saying "Dad, wake up. Didn't you promise to buy me that toy I wanted? Come on, Dad. it's 7 PM and you are still sleeping please."
Her father laughed in his husky voice because of sleep and took her in his arms hugging her close to his chest with great love and then he started tickling her while giggling.
He stopped tickling his daughter asking in his warm tone which he only uses with his family and close friends "I'm awake. Where is your mother?"
The child stood up on the bed and Nick immediately raised his hands and held her hands to make sure she would not fall down and hurt herself saying "I don't know, Dad. A man came home, I think it was your friend Philip and they went to work together. Please, Dad I want my toy."
Nick furrowed his eyes because his wife does not have any work this week, so why would she go with Philip?
Nick's thoughts were interrupted by his best friend.
He was short, thick with cute cheeks and plump red lips. He also has orange-colored hair which was styled in a sexy mullet.
Anthony threw his body on Nick's, screaming excitedly " Nick, my best friend I missed you so much."
Nick groaned in pain screaming " Are you serious Anthony? We were together only yesterday before we went to sleep. Now get the hell off of me."
The short male gasped dramatically saying "Am I heavy? You are rude, I am the most famous model in the world. I always keep myself fit. Also, let's not talk about your ass? It looks like a hippo's ass."
As soon as the orange-haired male finished talking, he ran out of the bedroom when Nick started running after him laughing their asses out.
When Nick caught him he immediately started tickling Anthony who said while giggling "Nick, I swear I did not mean... Don't... Please stop. Your ass is the best."
Nick kept tickling his best friend Anthony while the other male begged him to stop unable to stop laughing.
But little did they know that all their happiness will vanish very soon?
Some hours later, now it's 11 PM, when Emily had just entered the mansion with Philip and she was carrying several bags of famous brands such as Gucci, Channel, Louis Vuitton and more.
Nick was sitting in the living room, eating popcorn and on his right side there was his little princess, his daughter Mira and on his left side there was Anthony, his best friend.
Nick raised his gaze toward Philip and his wife as he got up approaching them asking with a little worried grin "Where were you guys?"
His wife Emily put her bags on the floor saying nervously, but she tried to hide her nervousness by wrapping her arms around her husband's neck saying "We just went shopping babe. You would not mind would you? I used your card."
Nick smiled lovingly, looking at his wife's beautiful face answering her while tucking her hair behind her ear gently "Of course not. You can use it whenever you want. Why would I mind my love. I was just worried about you two, because I knew you did not have any work this week."
Emily smirked secretly, hugging him.
After that, the three of them headed to sit in the living room where Anthony and Mira were still watching TV, but they were interrupted by Mira who talked "Dad, here is mom now I want my toy please, dad you promised me."
Nick hugged his daughter, kissing her cheeks saying in his gentle voice "But princess it's getting late now. I will buy it tomorrow, I promise."
Nick furrowed his eyebrows in concern when he noticed his princess' eyes starting to get glossy with tears.
The thing that hurts him the most was seeing tears in his little princess's eyes.
Mira started crying saying "No, Dad. Mira wants her toy now. You promised me, please."
Before her father who was wiping her tears away in obvious concern can reply, his wife interrupted them saying " Shut up Mira, that is enough. He told you he is going to get your stupid toy tomorrow."
Nick gritted his teeth angrily as he looked at his wife Emily, she felt like her body trembled in fear because of his scary gaze.
Nick softly said as he was cupping his princess' cheeks "Yes , my little princess. Dad will get you your toy right now okay baby?"
Nick might be in love with his wife, but his daughter is always going to be the number one in his life.
Mira nodded quickly and excitedly to him smiling widely.
Nick smiled and started showering his daughter's face with kisses while she was giggling.
Nick got up, heading to his bedroom in order to quickly change his clothes.
He put on a grey sweatpants and a random hoodie also some sneakers from his collection.
Then he picked up his car keys and went out.
Nick immediately started driving to the children's toys store, but he was very oblivious to Daniel who was sitting inside his black car and behind him there were two other black Chevrolet SUVs.

After Nick finished choosing the toys that his daughter wanted, he paid and carried the several bags in one of his hands, because he wanted to buy some extra toys for Mira.
With his other hand he paid for those toys he bought for his princess.
Then he walked out of the store, carrying those bags full of toys, smiling widely because he was super excited to see his daughter's reaction to the toys he bought for her, especially since he knows how happy she will be when she sees the extra toys he chose.
Having Mira was the best decision he has ever made in his life.
Before having her, his whole life was about study and work, he was a workaholic but when Emily told him she was pregnant,
he changed.
He started spending more time with his wife and his little family.
He headed to his car which he parked in the parking lot which was near the toy store.
The poor Nick did not know he won't get the chance to see his daughter nor will he get the chance to give her these toys.
