Part 6 || 22 - Goodnight, Daddy

I couldn't cope up with the loss. I didn't even have the courage to sleep on the bed where my first love died. I've been in the same place on the floor, curled up. 
                          
Two days, it's been two days and tomorrow's the funeral. Emma and the others flew in the very next day. All I could do is listen to Tom's voicemail again, so that I could hear him again. 
                          
Shall I call him?
                          
He did say that he's going to be there for me always. And no one knows my relationship with Dad better than he does. I sat up straight and inserted my old card back into my phone. 
                          
My hands shook as I searched for Tom's name. 'My Snowman ☃️❤️' I smiled as I remembered his nickname. I don't even know if he changed his number or not. I pressed on the number and took my phone to my ear.

He's not going to pick up.

I'm going to hang up- 
                          
"Hello?" A girl's voice rang from the other side. "H-Hello" I said as cleared my throat. "Tom?" 
                          
"He's not here, who's this?" The girl asked as I squinted my eyes. "Erm, he knows who I am, where is he?" 
                          
"He's not here" she stated coldly. "Fine, tell him I called" I said rolling my eyes. "Who called?" She asked again. 
                          
"What's my name on the screen?" 
                          
"Shorty" 
                          
"Yeah, tell him that" I said hanging up. 
                          
This bitch.

I was standing next to Julius and Mum on my right, receiving everyone who came to the funeral at the Church. Everyone had arrived except for Tom and the Pattinson family, I don't think the former is going to come as he didn't call me back yet. 
                          
"I'm sorry, sweetheart" Richard (Robert's dad) said pulling me in a hug. I hugged him back and muttered a small thank you. Clare (Robert's mom) stroked my face before pecking my cheek and hugging me. 
                          
The girls (his sisters) hugged me as well before finding their seats. I smiled lightly as Rob stood in front of me. 
                          
"Hi, babycakes" he said and pulled me in a hug. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he picked me up. Tightening the hug at every sob, he hushed me. 
                          
"It'll be alright" he said and for the first time, I didn't have hope. We took our seats, I urged Rob to sit next to me. He held my hand throughout the ceremony. It was a beautiful ceremony. 
                          
Julius looked at me and I nodded. I stood up from my seat and headed up front. I opened the piece of paper in my hand and looked at everyone. 
                          
"First, I would like to thank all of you for coming. Y/F/N was my and Julius' father but he was also a father to Nick, Emma, Daniel, Robert, Tom, Rupert and almost each of my friends. He was also a dearest uncle to a lot of his nieces and nephews. My father was a wonderful man. He was my best friend, my supporter, my biggest fan, my mentor and my first love. When I was a little girl, and if it was raining, I used to go out in the rain and dance. He always got worried about me and used to stay awake till I danced in the rain. After that he used to make me some hot soup and lecture me about being out in the rain, even when Nana told me he used to do the same thing" I heard some chuckles from the crowd.
