Post Fifteen: Fathers Day

[witchofthechalk]

Has anyone noticed if fathers day is going the same way as mothers day?

[Action for England also has a gift for him]

Happy Fathers Day

Thank you.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

... And you really made this for me?

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Of course. It is fathers day.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

It's not like I'm happy or surprised or anything, stupid. This sort of thing is expected, really.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

I suppose so. I only heard about recently. We don't have days like this in my world.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

Y-you don't have to make an effort for my sake. Not that I'm saying this was for my sake. I mean, it definitely wasn't for yours.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

[She sighs, oh father...]

Of course. I'm glad you like it anyway.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

You didn't get anything for anybody else, right?

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

No.
....was I supposed to?

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

No, not in particular.

It's not like I'm happy that it was for just for me or anything.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

[So that was it]

Alright.

....would you like to do something together then? Since it's fathers day?

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

... We can even spend the day together?

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

If you'd like.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

It wouldn't be for your sake, of course.

... I'll even wear the socks that you gave me.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

[She smiles again]

Of course.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

... But you don't have to give me gifts if you don't want to, though.

I-it's not like your presence is a present enough, but maybe it's something like that.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

What would you like to do then?

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

Watch you.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Watch me?

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

You're just growing up so quickly.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

....

Right...

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

It feels like almost yesterday that you were taking your first steps.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

.....

England. You didn't know me when I was that young.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

Oh.




Metaphorically?

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

....I don't think that works either.

Besides, I don't even know how your callender would match up with the one I'm used too. I don't even know when my birthday would be here.
