He growled and reached up turning the water off. Grabbing a towel he drapped it around her before standing her up and making her face him. " No you stop that right now Rimana. I know your not a grown up or very strong. But changes with time. I'll help where I can when i can but there are just some things that makes me uncomfortable. Such as seeing my daughter naked in a shower. And you don't know how mad i am at not being able to have known you or held you untill now. four times Rimana....was when i was not on the planet when she was. And not very far away. You have just come into my life and already i'm starting to see my life better and unable to live without you here. I do love you, more and more every moment we are together. "
He kept his voice low in tone but firm. He didn't want to yell at her but needed her to try and understand him. " I wish she never died as well. Just for the chance that we could have met again and i could have it out with her about not trying harder to let me know i had a child. A very beautiful and strong little girl. If i had known, you would have been in my life, and I in yours. But things work out in ways we can't explain. So please, stop this crying and show me that smart and strong attitude of yours ok? "

Rimana didn't like him wrapping her up in a towel and getting her to her feet. She'd not gotten her hair washed or anything washed for that matter. She was only 6 and though there was a lot she did for herself somethings were still difficult for someone her age, such as washing her own hair, occasionally getting dressed or tying her own shoes. She couldn't cook for herself, and could barely read or write. She was still just a small child and because she was in and out of group care she was not taught many of the essential things a parents should have taught their child by now. She didn't look at him as she lifted a hand to wipe her eyes, "I need you... I need you to help me and you wont..." She said as she wanted to yell at him that she was just a child but didn't know how to say it.

He smiles softly and nods. " Just try to understand Rimana. I'll help you as much as i can. I'll teach you as much as i can. Wash up and when your dressed, i'll wash your hair for you. Ok? " He smiled softly at her as he used one hand to wipe the tears that she missed away. " I can see that there are alot of things you can't do. You'll just have to teach me those things. We both have alot to learn. "

She sniffled as she tried not to start crying again, "Why can't you just help me now? I don't understand" She said to him. "I can't do any of that by myself... momma always did it, or the people who took care of me when she was away. Your supposed to be my dad... that's like a mom right? Then just do what momma did" She said to him. She didn't get why it bothered him so much, she didn't know why people who didn't even know her or have any sort of connection to her could do those things but he could not do the simple tasks a parent should do. What if she had come to him a baby, in diapers, would he try to get her to change herself, potty train herself?

He sighed softly and looked at her. Well guess there was nothing to do about it. He turned the water back on and turned her around. He took the towel away before it got completely soaked. Then reached up and grabbed the shampoo. Squeezing out a palm full he began working it into her hair. " Rimana, being as old as you are makes me uncomfortable. Seeing you naked like this makes me feel....wrong. Maybe..if i had raised you or helped raise you from a baby it wouldn't be so bad. But one has to learn sometime i guess. "

Rimana sat down on the floor and let him start to lather up all of her wet hair. None of this bothered her at all, she was relatively used to it. She glanced down at herself as he said how she looked made him uncomfortable, yet there was nothing she could see that would make him feel that way. "Why daddy?" She asked. She was still too young to full comprehend the differences between male and female and the makings of children, and was too young to even begin learning about it.

" It just does, and when you are older i'll explain it fully. So for now just don't worry about it. " He smiled and when her hair was fully lathered he pushed her forward just alittle and under the water. " Close your eyes. " He said just as the water began washing through her hair. His hands moving through it to help wash out the shampoo.

She shut her eyes as she spit out water she got in her mouth as well as soap. When she had her hair was rinsed out she shook her head quickly like a dog getting the water out as it poofed up a bit as it was different to see her with her hair down then up in the little pig tails. She got wrapped up in a towel with his help and shivered slightly as he got her out of the washroom. She looked up at him as she smiled a bit as it was in some way a good little bonding moment.

He laughed when her hair poofed out like it did. Shaking his head he sighed. " Well you have her hair thats for sure. " He grabbed her nose playfully before he stood. He washed out her clothes and put them on some heat. Then he walked her into the living room and sat her down. while her clothes dried he brushed out her hair. " Guess after we eat we pick up the rest of your things. "

She sat on the edge of the bed as he brushed her hair, which tamed the wild mess it was before into something that looked very pretty on her. Her legs bounced slightly as she swung her feet watching her toes while her hands rested on her lap. "What are we doing today?" She asked him before glancing up at him, "Will you put my hair up in pig tails?" She asked. "Mommy said I look pretty with them."

He thought for a moment. " well first we are going to get you those pancakes. Then we are going to collect the rest of your clothes and stuff from your mothers place. After that some shopping. And after that....don't know. " He made sure her hair was just right before he looked around. He found the ties she had worn the other day. So he began to gather her hair and putting them into pigtails. He had seen them once or twice. His weren't perfect but good enough.

Over time he'd eventually get used to doing her hair, who knows maybe even enjoy it because she wasn't going to be young forever. He would have to deal with the fact that in 10 years she'll practically be an adult and most likely wont care so much about the time she's spending with him right now. She smiled at him as she slipped off the bed after, "Good because I'm hungry" She said looking at him with that more confident prideful look she had the first time she met him and sized him up.

He laughed lightly. He walked over to her clothes and nods seeing they were dry. So he handed them to her. " Here you go. When your dressed we can get going. Think i know a place that would be good for pancakes. " He tapped her nose playfully. She was growing on him and fast. He was doing things he didn't think he could or would ever do.

She took her clothes from him and pulled off her towel starting with her under things first and then began to pull her clothes on over top of them. For the most part she seemed to have dressing herself down okay, hopping up onto the edge of the bed so she could slip her feet into her shoes. "I don't want those pancakes i want you to make them... can't you buy the stuff to make them Dad?" She asked when fully dressed she got to her feet and smoothed her clothes down. She looked perfect in pink.

He smiled softly turning away just a moment or so. Waiting till she was dressed before looking back at her. " Rimana...i could buy the stuff and try but it would be a waste of time. I'm not very good at cooking. I have very few things I know how to cook, so if you'll settle for eating out for breakfast, i'll make you one of my specialty lunches and dinners. Will that be ok? "
