Lake Cloud

Hallie and her dad had hung out at the same spot since Hallie was really little. The dock placed looking out over Lake Cloud. It was their favourite spot to go.



Every Sunday, Hallie's dad would buy them ice cream sundaes and they would sit, legs dangling over the dock, side by side looking out at the view. That was how they bonded. Then, they'd play catch in Lake Cloud Park. That was fun. It was a routine. A fun, happy routine that both Hallie and her dad looked forward to every week.

But when Hallie's parents split up, her dad disappeared, never to be seen again. Hallie was devestated. Now who would she go to Lake Cloud with?

When she was 14, Hallie retrurned to Lake Cloud by herself. It was then that she met Heath. They began to date. Usually going to Lake Cloud.

Hallie's dad turned up many ytears later, when Hallie was 19 and engaged to Heath. She gulped when she saw him. When he spotted her, he came bounding over. "Hallie! Sweet heart!" He said, trying to hug her. "No Dad. No. YOu left me when I was a vulnerable, innocent, naive little girl. You walked away from me. So now, I'm returning the favour, and walking away from you." Hallie told him, turned and began to walk off, back to Heath.

Hallie never heard from her Dad again. She and Heath were married a year later, when Hallie was 20, at the same place thwy had first met. Lake Cloud.
