5 The Hidden Threa (2/2)

”Your worrying too much.I can take care of myself.”

”I'm your dad.It's my job to worry about you and besides being a hero means that one day you may not come home through that door just like your mother.I know you don't like talking about her, but it's the sad reality that you face.I need you to be not 50% or 100%, but 1000% ready for whatever comes your way. But enough of that.I love you and were going out to your favorite restaurant to celebrate tonight.”

”Thanks Dad. I'll make you proud.”

Later that night while the main character sleeps.His dad is making a call to someone he knows.

Denki's Dad: ”I know. He's becoming more like her every day. I worry about him.”

???: ”Well this time make sure he stays in line.I don't want another repeat of what happened to his mother.The kid deserves better than that. However, don't you think your son deserves to know the truth about what happened to her.”

Denki's Dad: ”He does, but he's not ready yet and he's got so much on his plate right now.”

The person on the other side of the line sighs heavily.

???: ”Waiting will only make it harder to tell him.Although, I wouldn't want to have to tell my son a truth that ugly either.Just be careful, he's a smart boy and will eventually find out the truth on his own.”

Denki's Dad: ”I understand. I'll talk to you later.”

Denki's Dad hangs up the phone and retreats to bed.
