Brief Thought.

It came from nowhere, the fist that shattered her world. It caught her on the side of the neck, a sloppy punch overall but it stunned her, made her see gray and caused her throat to lock.

Daddy will protect me. Daddy will make it OK. Daddy did my room, made everything I want. Daddy took care of me. Took care of what I needed. I can see the light. Daddy will be there. He's there. He'll save me. Isn't that right, Daddy?

Daddy?

...

DADDY!!

Where are you?

As panic sets in and heart rate accelerates.

Where are you? - Eyes moving left to right, a tear slips down her cheek, so soft.

Where... are... you?
