My hands shook at my sides as I continued to watch him. He has grown so much that he had grey hair on his head and beard. But still had the same scary eyes I always avoided looking into. The last time I saw him, he had a gun to my head. His hand trembling with anger, his eyes looked like those of a predator watching as his prey was being taken away.

I wanted to turn around and run away but fear got me stuck in one place with my feet feeling like they weighed a ton.
