"Cammie...Cammie..." Someone stroked my head and whispered calmly to me.

I slowly opened my eyes and was met with the most wonderful sight in the world. My dad. He was sitting down and leaning over me, smiling.

"Dad!" I exclaimed. I tried to sit up and embrace him, but I was in too much pain.

"No no, Cammie. Lay back," my dad told me. I felt tears falling down my cheek. He's alive.

"B-but how? You're supposed to...I thought you were-"

"Shh, hush now, Cam. It's okay," he soothed. "We're okay."

I smiled up at him. I couldn't believe it. I didn't understand. How was this possible?

"I love you, sweetheart," he told me.

More tears slipped down my face. "I love you too, daddy."

"CAMMIE," someone shouted from far away.

Who is that? I thought.

"Cammie, please, you've got to wake up!"

Wake up? No. This couldn't be a dream.

"No...No!" I struggled to get up, but my dad still kept me down. He continued stroking my hair tenderly and said, "It's alright."

"But dad-"

"Everything will be alright."

"Cammie!"
