Odin followed as the little human girl took her to the balcony of the house. There was no light except the reflection of the moonlight. There were two seats as well and she sat one.

Odin grunted, what kind of foolishness was  this? So would Ichabod actually turn him into a baby sitter in this night? He thought of using his power on the little girl to send her to sleep immediately but...

“I’m so sad Ichabod.” The girl whimpered and this stopped him from doing what he wanted to do.

“If you are sad, talk to your mother not me.” He murmured.

“My mum doesn’t like my dad.” She said, more like talking to herself. “If he still doesn’t show at the Halloween party, I am going to be laughed at again . I can’t ask my mum to dress up like my dad again. It’s embarrassing.” She cried. “For days I couldn’t even do anything in class without being laughed at. I hate this stupid Halloween.”

Odin was barely listening to her, instead, he was thinking of how he would lure her to sleep without hurting the little one but all of a sudden, she jumped from her seat and then ran to hug him, clinging to his waist.

He was shocked and could hardly make a sound. The little girl was crying and he frowned

. This was just too much for him-this whole nanny-of a thing! He groaned loudly...he didn’t sign up for this.

“Hush..hush little one.” He said, patting her on the head with his left finger.

He opened the door of her room. He was carrying a sleepy Tracy in his arms and then slowly, he put her on the bed. His finger dug into the bed clothing, making a little tear.

“Oops!” He said before covering her with a blanket.

Just as he turned his back towards her...

“Do you have a daddy Ichabod?”

What the hell! He thought that little devil was sleeping!

“Yea, but I hate him.” He replied without turning around.

“You do?”

“Yea.”

“Why?”

“Because he is responsible for all this nonsense that I am doing. He promised me to a wo...” He stopped as he realized he was about to say this to a mere child. “You need to sleep little one and so do I...” With this, he walked up to her so fast, whispered something into her ear and the next second she was fast asleep.

Odin sighed. “Thank Goodness. Now, I need to find something better to do.”  He said and was about exiting when he heard noises coming from somewhere. He stopped and realized it was coming from Tracy’s bed.

“What sorcery is this?” He asked himself, taking the tab beside her pillow.  He could see that it was an event.

Read " Black Widow " by the same author ( Tobi Loba )

. There was a group of people on the podium, most of which were men, holding their daughter/son as they all took part in a choreography.

There were some dressed like a big reptile with their head and foot sticking out, there were different dressings and everyone was laughing and was having fun.

He turned the tab around to see if the image was coming from somewhere behind it but there was nothing like that. He touched the screen, hoping he would be able to touch one of the little people in it but his finger touched the glassy cover.

“This whole technology thing is madness....” He said to himself but stopped as he saw Tracy coming to the front just as the music ended. She was dressed in a white gown, there was a tiara on her head and in her hand was a magical wand. She looked really sad, as if she was going to burst into tears.

Everyone was waiting for her to do something but she looked terribly sad while holding the mic....

‘I’m here baby. I’m here....” Said a voice from behind the camera and all eyes turned to see Harmony rushing to the front, wearing the most odious costume ever. It was difficult to tell if she was trying to dress like a mermaid or a frog. When Tracy saw her, she dropped the mic from her hand and ran out of the stage in tears.....

“Wow! This must have been a total disaster....” Odin said to himself and was about to drop the tab when his hand mistakenly pressed something and he found another video dance titled, “The Dracula dance video.”

Above the video was a message-“Her Halloween party is in two days time, you better get cracking if you really want to be part of her life. I will send a video to you, practice the steppings and be serious with it. This is going to be your last chance. Do not mess things up!

“Okay, this should be interesting.” Odin said, taking a seat and pressing the play button, if nothing attracted him, the “Dracula” on the title of the video got him and well, they shared something in common......

FOR THOSE WHO DON’T KNOW WHO DRACULA IS, IT’S THE NAME OF A POPULAR VAMPIRE IN MOVIES....SO I GUESS YOUR IDEAS CAME IN HANDY. COMMENTS
