Narrative Story
Adrianna pushed the heavy thick wooden door open, her breathing grew quicker from moving the weight of the doors. She still couldn’t believe after nine years she will see him face to face, she was only seven when he went away and the thought of seeing him made her stop in her tracks. The shadows in the dimly lit hallway did help her in the courage department, but somehow she keeps walking until she reaches the threshold of the room he was in.

She replies “Okay Daddy Love You.”
