Niels frowned all day on Christmas Eve and the day after. They had attended a funeral, a first one for their kids, and it seemed to leave the most of an impression on Emi. Niels knew their elder daughter was smart, possibly too smart for her age, as she had proven when she had been afraid of her little sister dying because of her asthma attack. And Amanda wasn't exactly cheerful either, even though Niels tried to remedy that. However it wasn't until Christmas night that Niels realised how much of an impression it had really left on Emi. As the little one had gotten up and cuddled to them, Niels should have known something wasn't right, but as he tucked her in, she asked him out of the blue to promise her to not die. Niels frowned, caressing her hair gently. "I won't, little princess, don't worry... Your daddy isn't going to leave you... He'll be here, for you and you brother and your sister... And your mummy! I love you all way too much to die on you!" he said. He winked at her, hugging her gently, as good as he could without undoing his tucking in. He looked at her for a while longer, caressing her face while gently whispering: "I know sweetie, yesterday was strange, going to the funeral and everything, but I'm really healthy, and I reaaaaallyyyy love you all too much..." He tickled her gently, making her giggle, even when she kept it down to not wake her brother. Niels gave her a gentle wink, whispering: "Are you sure daddy's going nowhere now?"
