My Daddy (Completed)

Chapter 27 ~ The Mall

~ After the 2nd study day ~

~ Alex's POV ~

It was the end of the 2nd day at the study centre and overall it was a good day! Ali had been a bit calmer and everyone had given us some space. Other than a few idiots here and there.

We both walked down the corridor outside all the way back to the car.

Ali was okay and she was holding my hand tight and she wasn't too tired.

It was about 2:30pm and I needed to go to the mall to get a few things.

"Is it okay if we go to the mall?" I softly asked crouching down.

She hesitated a bit but nodded slowly.

I helped her into the car and buckled her in.

I got some hand sanitiser from my bag quickly and gave it to her.

She looked down and saw it.

She carefully put some on her hands and rubbed it in slowly.

I made sure she was comfy and then closed the door for her.

I got into the car myself and turned the heating on.

I then drove off to the mall.

I looked in the mirror and saw she was just looking around outside.

She held her hand up and she waved it around slowly.

I smiled as I carried on driving.

When we arrived I parked the car up.

I quickly paid for the parking on my phone.

I then got out the car and made sure I grabbed my wallet and keys.

I went round to Ali and she flinched a bit when I opened the door.

She looked at me and calmed down a bit.

I softly smiled as I unbuckled her and picked her up.

She held onto me and hugged me tightly.

I shut the door and locked the car with my keys.

I placed her on her feet and she immediately grabbed my hand.

We walked slowly to the first shop.

~ 20 minutes later ~

We had finished with the first shop I managed to buy what I needed.

We walked down the mall when Ali stopped.

She came round and wrapped her arms around my waist.

I put the bag down and hugged her.

I felt her start crying very softly and flinching from her sobs.

There wasn't anyone around so I just rubbed her back gently and sung very softly for her.

After a few minutes she hadn't really stopped crying.

I lifted her up and she immediately nuzzled her head into my neck and cried softly.

She must have been feeling overwhelmed and upset.

I didn't blame her at all.

I rocked her gently, her still sobbing.

She pulled away looking at me. Her eyes were red and swollen and tears were running down her cheek.

She was sobbing.

"Blow on me right here." I pointed to my lips.

She still cried and was shaking.
