The next day Bryan arrived at the chief's house ready for the operation. The chief had insisted that his wife must be kept in sight at all times to avoid accidents. He agreed with him and somehow it brought back sad memories in him.
All his life he had lost people he loved because he was either too weak to defend them or not prepared. He didn't just want to make sure that the chief's wife came back safe but also fully prepare her for anything that could happen in case the police were too slow to react.
The moment he arrived he received a bear hug from Dorita who was clearly blushing and from what he could see it was her brother who was teasing her. He made a mental note to give him a scare of his life once this was over.
He patted the little girl's head, hoping that this infatuated feeling about his supposed intelligence would die as fast as it developed.
"How have you been?" he asked with a smile.
