"I have no issues with you guiding them around Armezix, and if you think helping them will get your family off our backs, that\'s okay too. But we know your Father, and even with Angel Zern. I doubt he\'ll back off."
More often than not, I\'ve been disappearing for long periods of time these days. And Pazemad is taking care of the kids. It\'s a good thing since he works from home, but I want to be here more.
I miss my kids, and I wouldn\'t be leaving again for a while if it were under different circumstances. Pazemad is a man whos one in a million and doesn\'t blame anyone for the things going on in their life. There is one problem.
He brings up an important issue in regards to my Father and what he wants to do. We\'re running out of time, and the only reason we\'ve lasted this long without interference from my Dad is because of our children.
While my Dad is controlling and wrong about how he\'s going about this. He still loves his grandchildren. Even if he doesn\'t care for Pazemad.
"You\'re right about my Dad... He\'s been staying away for the benefit of our kids... But now, since they\'re getting closer to 10 years old. He\'ll start interfering in our lives again."
Pazemad wraps his arms around me in a gentle hug, and the laughter of our two kids fills our ears. It\'s moments like these that make me grateful for all the good things we\'ve got. And how few problems we actually have.
It\'s unfortunate that our one and only problem is a huge one. And not easily solved. But with Angel Zern\'s help, we can probably get my Dad to back off. Pazemads parents have no problems with us being together. But considering what family I come from, I get it.
"Well, it\'s not like we\'ve got many options left. When you\'re traveling with Angel Zern, you should bring it up. Don\'t leave it for a surprise when it does happen."
That\'s the last thing I want to do given who he is. Angel Zern seems like a nice man, and I\'m glad about that. Given Saliandra Orvello\'s history, it shows how much he sees past people for the thing that happened to them in the past.
The Elven Princess has quite the history, and it\'s similar to my passed sister-in-law. I sympathize with the girl. I wish that such terrible things didn\'t exist.
"Don\'t worry. I\'ll make sure that I broach the subject at the right time."
We have many things to take care of in the coming months, and having Angel Zern backing us will make our odds of success skyrocket. We\'ll actually be able to pull it off. Freedom from my Dad, and a life away from what he wants for me.
He\'s a kind man when he wants to be, but his stubbornness and pride suffocate the best parts of him. And I miss the man he used to be 300 years ago before I met Pazemad.
"Your Dad might come around at the last minute. But given how much he despises me, I get why he\'s doing this. There isn\'t much we can do about how he feels."
He\'s right about that. Once Dad has made up his mind about something, it\'s impossible to change his mind. Not even Mom can\'t do that. And she\'s tried to help us with our situation.
"Mommy! Daddy! Come play with us!"
Leela\'s voice takes our attention, and we both turn to see our beautiful little girls calling us over. We make our way over to them with our hands together.
"Now, what game are we playing then?"
Pazemad leans down, and I follow suit. It\'s time that we spend some quality time with our little ones. And do it as a family. I\'ve been gone so long. It\'s great that I get a chance to do this.
I\'m worried about Saliandra and Angel Zern, though. I don\'t know how long they\'re gonna be in that bathroom. And I don\'t want to keep my kids outside for long.
Let\'s hope they\'re wrapping whatever they\'re going to each other up.

"Thanks again for letting us use one of your showers. It\'s been so long since either of us had a chance to get clean."
We\'re sitting at the kitchen table and enjoying a meal that my wife cooked. What I find disturbing as a Father is the fact my two little girls are staring at Angel Zern. And I can\'t help fearing the worse. But they know nothing of love like that... They might have that childhood crush, though...
"That\'s no problem at all. I\'ll admit, I\'m curious as to where you actually went besides an old Dungeon that made you smell like that. Min-..."
My soon-to-be question is interrupted by the sound of Laura\'s voice, and I\'m not happy with her question.
"Are you really an Angel?"
As a man, and a Father, I don\'t like it when any boy or man spends time with, thinks about, or looks at my Daughters cause I know what evil a man is capable of. I watch as Angel Zern smiles lightly and stands up from the table.
He backs away slightly and gets to a more open part of the room. I watch with great wonder and fear as Golden Wings pop out of his back and spread open in their massive wingspread. The room is just barely big enough to accommodate their length.
"Yes, I am an Angel. My Father is Arch-Angel Michael. And my Grandfather is The Almighty Father."
The true importance of Angel Zern dawns on me at this moment. I\'ve been ignoring it in the back of my head... But hearing those words from him makes my hands shake just a bit.
"Wow!! That\'s awesome! Can you take me for a ride!!"
Leela jumps off her chair and rushes towards Angel Zern.
"No! I want a ride first!!"
Then my fear of them being is taken away as my little girls run to the man with open arms. The fear and worry as a Father outweigh the fear I have of the Angel in front of me.
"Now hold on, you two, you have to make sure it\'s okay with your parents before I take you for a ride."
Jaeemara is smiling from next to me, and I\'m sweating bullets. Angel Zern is stealing the attention and love of my little girls, and she\'s just smiling. Only I\'m allowed to be the man in their lives at the moment.
"What do you say, honey? Do you think it\'s okay for Angel Zern to give our little ones a ride?"
The words coming out of Jae\'s mouth are a complete and utter betrayal that I never thought I\'d hear. She sees my shocked expression and just laughs.
"Oh, c\'mon... They have a little crush. Let them have some fun..."
She whispers these words to me, but they echo and scream in my ears.
"Absolutely not. Sorry you two, but Angel Zern isn\'t someone that can just give a ride whenever a child asks for it."
Both my little girls turn to me, and I can see the tears forming in their eyes and the cringing of their faces from the brutal rejection. And my heart slowly breaks, realizing how much I\'ve hurt my little girls.
"Well, I\'m sorry. But it seems that you\'re Dad isn\'t comfortable with it. Maybe when you\'re a little older and bigger, he\'ll be okay..."
Older...
Bigger...
Images of my two beautiful little girls growing up flash before my eyes. And seeing them going for a ride on Angel Zern is even more dangerous than what\'s happening now.
This is a nightmare.
