**Harper**
I sat in my dorm on my phone, listening to my father tell me all the changes that were coming to my life within the next 48 hours. Gabriel had let me have some privacy, he told me he would be waiting for me to be off the phone before we talked about anything.
"Honey...I know this is a lot, and I had hoped that this had jumped a generation...he will be okay Harper." He said it low like he wasn't sure of how I would react.
"Dad---he might be hurt while I am gone, so many things can happen."
"You can't protect him all the time, and if he gets sent out on a job you have to think of the client first, you have to be able to step in front of the client if something attacks, not your significant other." The words he said were true and I knew they were, but at the same time, it felt like I wasn't going to see the light of day again. I was being dramatic, you are being dramatic Harper.
