Zachary couldn't help but laugh at how creative and determined Skylar was with his questions.
"Easy, easy, buddy..." he said with a chuckle. "Mom and Dad are both fine."
"Really?"
"Really."
There was a small sigh of relief on the other end of the line. "Alright..."
Zachary's smile softened. "Thank you for worrying about us."
Skylar didn't say anything on the other end, which was enough to make Zachary worry as he asked, "Buddy, you don't sound very happy."
Skylar took a deep sigh before he answered, "I was happy yesterday."
"And today?"
"Not anymore."
"Why?"
"Dad, you forgot to call me." He protested.
Zachary gently rubbed his forehead. He really had forgotten.
He had been so focused on making lunch for Sienna and taking care of her that his phone hadn't crossed his mind all morning.
"I'm sorry, buddy."
There was a brief silence.
Then Skylar spoke again. "It's okay, Dad..." His voice no longer sounded upset. Instead, it was full of excitement. "Daddy."
"Hmm?"
