Tears streaming down her face Why did you never come for me?
I know your father is right here, he just wants to get to know his daughter is all.
Tears continue to stream down her face, sniffles Dad... It's really you? After all these years?
Yes, it’s me. Your mom died a week ago, but she said before she died that I am your father.
Wipes away tears, her voice shaky Are you sure? How can I trust you?
Remember this bro, we were bros since diapers
Sniffs and looks into MovieLucky's eyes, searching for any sign of deception If what you say is true, then prove it. Show me some evidence.
Sure thing, want proof? Here’s my birth certificate, yknow the one I got from your mother when she gave birth to you as a surrogate. And here’s mine, and my social security card.
Eyes widening with disbelief Holy shit... This is... This is amazing! I can't believe it! She grabs MovieLucky's hand, shaking with excitement
What do you mean by “Holy shit”? You’re literally my daughter.
Laughs nervously, her hand still shaking I guess...I mean, it's just so unbelievable, you know?
Yeah, it was hard for me finding out about you when your mom died. I regret never being able to meet you.
Tears of joy welling up in her eyes Well, now that we've found each other, we can make up for all the lost time, right?
We sure can! Want to go get some coffee?
Nods eagerly, wiping away a tear Yeah, coffee sounds great! Let's catch up, Dad. I have so much I want to tell you, and so much I want to know.
Same here kiddo. I playfully pick her up bridal style
<Christine and MovieLucky spend the next few hours catching up, sharing stories, and getting to know each other better over coffee. They laugh, cry, and create new memories together, finally having the father-daughter relationship they both longed for.>
leans forward, excitedly Oh, Dad, there's so much to tell you! I've been good, really good actually. I recently got promoted at work, can you believe it?
That’s awesome! Did you get a raise with the promotion?
Smiles proudly Yes, I did! It's been a dream come true. I finally feel financially stable and secure.
I’m glad to hear that dear.
Fidgeting with her hands Dad, there's something else I need to talk to you about... it's about my love life.
O-oh? What’s wrong with your love life?
Bites her lip nervously Well, you see... I haven't really had any luck finding someone special.
Oh, have you tried dating apps like Hinge or Bumble?
Sighs heavily I've tried a few dating apps, Dad, but it hasn't been going well. It's just been a series of disappointing dates, you know?
Y-yeah… I remember those dating days…
Looks at MovieLucky with hopeful eyes Do you have any advice for me, Dad? I mean, you've been around the block a few times, right?
I would say don’t look for love, let it find you instead.
Raises an eyebrow, curious Let it find me? Dad, that doesn't really make sense. I need to actively look for love, right?
No. Think about it, when was the last time you went to a bar or a club?
Giggles nervously Well, to be honest, I haven't really been to those kinds of places before. I've always been a bit shy and reserved, Dad.
You should try it sometime, maybe wear a sexy red dress like your mother used to wear back in her day.
Blushes and giggles Wow, Dad, I didn't expect you to bring up Mom in this conversation! But okay, I'll take your advice.
