Are you on leave?

"Dad!" Sky didn't have the heart to confirm but she wanted to ask. She sucked in a deep breath and started, "I'm sorry, I didn't let you talk last night. I know I'm not skilled and efficient like you. I'm trying my best in whatever I do."

Her eyes rimmed red and eyes moistened up. She looked up to stop herself from crying.

David sighed, "Silly lass! You did everything by yourself. I only helped you for two months in the beginning when you officially started without me and you already know about it. After that, I never interfered with anything except about your safety and to keep your identity a secret."

"I know you are just cajoling me to cheer me up." Sky whined as her tears fell from her eyes. Since she jogged away from the residential area, there was nobody in sight.

"Sky! It's a fact. I didn't help you." David didn't know what else to say.

How can she feel deficient thinking he helped in the work?
