━━ &. @imbriums / rafael , for olympia .
full day spent with his sunshine , the beacon of light illuminating his now shadowed world . any time spent with his daughter was enough to alleviate any impending feelings of upset , as long as she was around , he could temporarily forget all the wrong he’s done . she’s the one right thing he’s ever done and dear god , he was afraid she was slipping through his fingers just like his wife . he promised he’d get her back by dinner and promises seemed scarce between the couple , any that were given were ones he’d make sure to keep . rafael wanted nothing but to show her that he was changing ; that he could put their family first , be someone to rely on . large hand gently holds onto aurora’s , entire frame slightly bent to accommodate for her far shorter height . his free hand , although occupied with takeout bags , knocks at the familiar door , one he no longer possesses a key to . there’s an ache in the cavity of his chest but he smiles down at aurora anyway , she didn’t need to see anything but him smiling . whilst waiting for olympia to come to the door , he peers down at his girl . ❛ did you have a fun day with me princess ? ❜
