Garon's Revelation

Chapter Six

***********************************************************************************

Garon met Gracie Lynn in the foyer at Molly Plantation. Since Garon had to leave for the tour that weekend, he wanted to make it up to Grace by letting her come visit him for a few days days during the week. After much persuasion by Garon to Stella over the phone, she finally agreed to let Grace come visit.

"Hey Little Gracie," said Garon as she come through the front door. Garon had Chuck pick her up from the airport, and they had just arrived back at the mansion. "Daddy!" Grace called out when she saw him, running, arms outstretched to the welcoming embrace of her father's strong arms. After hugging a few moments, just happy to see each other, Grace pulled out a piece of paper from a pack she had dropped on the floor.

"Here dad," she said. "I made you something." As she handed him the paper she smiled. She loved her dad so much. As Garon looked at the paper, a drawing of a man and a little girl, obviously the two of them, he couldn't help but smile.

"It's wonderful," he said, realizing how much he loved and missed his daughter so much. "And I got you a little something, too."

"Really?" she said. "Yep", said Garon. "Follow me. So, taking her hand, he led her through the hallway and out the back door. "Where are we going?" asked Gracie, excited. "You'll see," said Garon, just as excited as his only child.

Finally, they arrived at the horse stables. "Close your eyes." said Garon. Gracie closed her eyes, depending on the guidance of her father's tight grip of his hand. She had complete trust in him. "Okay, open them."

Grace opened her eyes. She could feel her heart beat rapidly as she saw what stood before her. A beautiful honey-colored horse stood in front of her, still as a statue, tall and proud, as Grace just stared in awe.

"It's yours," said Garon. "I want you to have her. You've rode the horses here all the time, but I want you to have your very own, all to yourself." "Wow," she said. "What's her name?" "Well," said a proud daddy. "She's all yours. Name her what you want. Anything in the whole world. Anything at all.

"I love it," said Grace, as she walked over and began stroking the beautiful horse's mane. "I think I'll name her...Happiness. Because that is what I will feel everytime I ride her. And when I am here with you, Daddy. Happiness."

Garon hugged his daughter as he cried. Oh, how he loved her so much. He would do anything to make her happy.

That night, Garon took Grace and a couple of members of his inner-circle to the carnival for the night. Being the local and international celebrity that he was, he rented the park for the whole night, a time during which he could have privacy and the whole place to themselves. They rode the roller coasters, the merry-go-round, the bumper cars, and the ferris wheel. They ate corn dogs and cotton candy and popcorn galore. He did all this just for Grace. In this way, it was sort of a good thing to have the celebrital status such as Garon had. But this secluded lifestyle only gave Garon more of the desire to live a normal life.
