Why do you worry that you can’t depend on your biological father for any kind of
moral or emotional support? He looked her in the eyes and said,” Suzanne, I won’t
leave you alone in this. Besides true friends stay. They stay till the end.” She
looked past their table and out to the mountains in the distance. There was a lone
eagle soaring in the sky that reminded her of freedom. In that moment, her body 
shook with chills while her eyes misted with tears. It was almost like the temperature
dropped in a matter of seconds. Calvin grabbed her hands in his, then looked over
at Tabatha. Tab was Suzanne’s sister in law but she felt more like a sister the 
longer they knew each other. Her brother, Calvin, was always protective of Suzanne.
This time was no different. Calvin told Suzanne he would protect her always. After
all, he was her older brother who was there from the beginning. He would be the 
one to stand in the gaps that her father left. For some reason or another, her father
would seem to come up with an excuse lately when he made plans with his grown kids.
This really bothered Suzanne, but her father’s lack of presence in their life since
he remarried and had small children didn’t seem to phase Calvin. Tabatha would also
tell Suzanne that because her father was non-existent at times, it didn’t mean his
grown kids were any less worthy of love, respect, and his time. She would also say
that one day he would regret this. I could not help but feel lonely that it would
take any time for him to show up. However, this time was different .I turned my 
head to look at the street before us, and there was my dad pulling up to meet the
three of us for lunch.

Until Next Time,

Heidi💜
