Brianna wanted us to meet up until I decided. What was there to decide? I made my decision a while back. Brianna would not be a part of my life. Getting involved with her in this realm would only build up her expectations. It would only hurt her if I couldn't escape this place. Not to mention, it would be harder for her to accept my decision if it is not what she assumes.
I loved Brianna. There was not a doubt about that. But the truth was her life was better off without me in it. There was a reason why grew up into the great person she was today. She was saved from being in my shadow. Without the knowledge of my existence, she got a chance to be Brianna and not Scarlet's little sister or Jones' other daughter. The direction her life went in was because of her choosing.
