Dad paused. I was sure he was gonna ask something weird like 'Are you my daughter's boyfriend?' Or something along those lines. To my surprise, he stopped. Maybe he didn't want to embarrass me in front of these VVVIPs. Yes, triple the V's.

A moment of silence passed by with dad just staring to Kaiden and Kaiden in turn, lowered his eyes, not returning dad's gaze as if he was guilty of something. Either that, or he's not used to being stared at.

"If it's you…" dad said in a soft whisper. "Thank you."

Thank you? Why was he thanking him? Oh! Because he carried me to the clinic!
