Something in him has changed, or maybe it was always there, but I was too occupied with saving my mates and the world to acknowledge it.

"He came here to talk to me. We talked, and now he is gone. I am not a child who would turn away from the problems because Daddy doesn't want her to speak to anyone without his permission." I had enough of his attitude. I turned to him after dropping the butter knife in the sink and groaned, muttering the words to him.
