You could see the pain and trauma etched on his face, and it broke your heart. He slowly started answering all your questions and talking about how heΒ managed to escapeΒ from captivity.

He had missed you both every day and couldn't go a day without thinking about you two and how heΒ was capturedΒ when you were pregnant and close to having the baby.
As he heldΒ you both tightly, he couldn't help but think about all the moments he had missed and how hard it must have been for you to do it all alone for 13 years. But now that he was back, he promised toΒ make up for all the lost time and shower you both with love and affection. The reunion brought tears to your eyes, but it also filled your hearts with joy and hope for a brighter future.

Now that he has returned to the comforting embrace of his home, he is actively seeking to rebuild his bond with your daughter. He is compensating for his absence with a deliberate display of love and care. He immerses himself in meaningful activities with her, valuing each shared experience and crafting treasured moments that they will both hold close to their hearts for years to come. Their interactions are filled with laughter, learning, and deep connections as they navigate this precious time of rebuilding their relationship from a place of renewed dedication and commitment.
Rafayel decided to teach his daughter to speak Lemurian. It all started with an animal book as he pointed at them. Your daughter seems embarrassed because it's a children's book.
"No! I'm 13, and I'm not reading from a kid's book." Your daughter protests, looking at the book with distaste. Rafayel looks to you for guidance. Unsure of what to do, you play along.
"ΓΕrΕ‘Μ£Δ₯mΓΌn." A quiet voice chimes, "You said it wrong..." You stare at your daughter in silence; it seems like she is as smart as you and Rafayel.
Rafayel turns the book toward his daughter with an excited smile on his face. "Actually, that's wrong too." He points to his mouth with a grin and says, "Lift your tongue to the roof of your mouth on this syllable."
You look at the two as they continue. No, you'll stop thinking about what could have been. He's here now; that's all you'll ever need.Β
βMom, what do you think?" You pay attention to your daughter, who is pointing at two fish in the children's book, βDo you think these fish are cute?β You stare at the book in silence, seeing images of the pufferfish flying a kiss in the air with his mouth open, confused, and Rafayel holding back his laughter. "Yes, love, do you think this fish is cute?β He whispers, trying not to laugh, but you can see his lips curving up in a smirk as he stares at you, waiting for your answer.
βC-cute yeahβ¦β Your daughter stares at you in confusion as she moves her head to the side. "You look embarrassed." She whispers, and as she stares back at the small fish and makes an air kiss, she says, "Is that cute then?" Rafayel couldn't help himself and laughed at your embarrassed face, pulling you and his daughter into a hug on the couch.
βYou two are so cute, I was just teasing you." He strokes your daughter's hair as he gives you a kiss on the cheek. "My muse and my seashell.β Rafayel stares at his daughter. "It's your bedtime now that I remember..." Your daughter's pout is noticeable as Rafayel takes her to the bedroom, and you wait, sitting on the sofa.Β
Rafayel returns to the room and looks at you, smiling, and then lifts you up, carrying you in his arms. "I got you!" Seeing you surprised, he kisses your cheek several times as he puts you on the bed and starts snuggling against you, hugging you while your head is on his chest.
You can hear the sound of calm sea waves as you slowly fall asleep in his arms, and he does the same, pulling you closer, and so the night passes.
Your daughter wakes up not seeing the blood on her sheets. Rafayel enters the room to talk to her while she is preparing her outfit of the day, and he is the one seeing the blood first and goes into panic. He doesn't know what to do. Is that how normally women have periods? He was close to calling the ambulance, but you interfered. βRafayel? What are you doing?β
Rafayel points to the covers and then checks his daughter's face worriedly with her face in his hands. "Are you in pain? You're bleeding! She can't get her period at that age, can she?" You stare at your daughter in surprise at her first period... Then you quickly pull her toward the bathroom. "Wait a moment, Rafayel!β
After a few minutes, you return with your daughter, showered and wearing new clothes, while you sit next to Rafayel on the sofa, who was looking at his daughter worriedly. "It was a lot of blood... Are you okay?β Your daughter nods as you sigh, "Okay, listen, here you two at the age of 13; it's normal to get your period, so why don't we go shopping for pads? You can learn more about that, Rafayel.β
As the father of a teenager who had her first period, Rafayel simply didn't know what to do to comfort his daughter, who seemed very irritated and just wanted sweets to eat. Period Cramps? He instantly knows what brand of chocolate to buy and how much of it to get. He may not know much about anything else, but when it comes to food, Rafayel can cook anything his daughter craves.
You know Rafayel is clueless when it comes to the more personal aspects of a menstrual cycle. So, you will fill in where he can't. Pads? Tampons? You go on shoppin. Sometimes you drag Rafayel along with you so he can learn.
"What are you doing?" You ask, looking at Rafayel.
"I'm buying pads." You and your daughter look at Rafayel in an awkward silence. "Rafayel, those diapers aren't pads."
Rafayel stares at you and your daughter in silence while you can see your daughter holding back her laughter so as not to make her father more embarrassed by seeing his ears turning red. "I know, I was just making a fool of myself to see how you guys would react."
His daughter couldn't hold back and let out a laugh as Rafayel's ears turned redder, and he grabbed the pads quickly. "Come on, come on!" He takes your daughter's hands and yours too as he walks to pay the cashier.
Paying the cashier, she looks worriedly at Rafayel, seeing his ears burning and his cheeks red, while you and your daughter look the other way, trying not to laugh.
As you were sitting in the living room, you noticed your daughter scrolling through her phone and smiling at a particular image. Curiosity piqued, so you decided to ask her about it, and she hesitantly revealed that she had a crush on the person in the picture. Concerned, you thought it best to bring this up with your husband, Rafayel.Β
Rafayel, being a protective father, immediately sprang into action and started looking for information about the boy. Meanwhile, your daughter was doing her best to interact with her crush, unaware of her father's snooping around. As Rafayel kept a watchful eye on the situation, you tried to reassure him that this was a normal part of growing up.Β
Despite your attempts to calm him down, Rafayel couldn't shake off his fear of his daughter getting hurt. He kept worrying about what would happen if the boy rejected her feelings. You couldn't help but let out a sigh at his overprotectiveness. After all, it was just a harmless crush, and it was natural for teenagers to experience such emotions.
βOne time or another, this would happen; it's normal, Rafayel.β
βI know, but... I'm not ready yet; what if he hurts her feelings?β You stare at Rafayel and just sigh. Who would believe you if you said the artist Rafayel, whom a lot of people admire, was stalking his daughter and her crush?
Suddenly, you thoughts were broken when heard your daughter crying, and when you looked in her direction, you could see that she was walking away, trying to hide her face in her hands.
Rafayel's anger flared up as he glared at the boy, but you quickly held him back and comforted him.
After some time, you arrive home, and minutes later, your daughter arrives too, staring at you two and saying, βI got rejected.β She looks away, her ears red. You two comforted her by hugging her and rubbing her back. Rafayel promised to give her a gift and take her to the beach later.
As a result of their desire to spend more time together, the father and your daughter decided to plan a trip to the beach, taking the three of you together. You enjoyed the experience so much that they made it a regular event, scheduling it into their weekly routine. Over time, the trips to the beach became a cherished opportunity for the father to bond with you and his daughter, creating a special bond between them that would last a lifetime.
