silver of my soul

IT'S COMPLICATED...

Bright's POV

It been nice seeing win after four days not that I was counting I just know it. As soon as I reached home The silence caught me there is no one except some servants who are probably sleeping in their quarters.
I would have eaten with them but I am late, there was some emergency at my fathers company and being the heir I had to handle it .
Dad is nowhere to be seen he isn't back yet I have no idea where he is all I know is he'll call me and I can't call him no matter what happens.

Flashback...

(2 weeks ago the same day bright thought that it might be mike who is his silver soul...)

  I thought that mike was my protector or silver soul I rushed home to meet dad and talk to him about it but when I reached his room his door was open and he was frantically packing his luggage  he was in a hurry to go some where ,I have never seen him like this all panicky and stressed maybe.

"Dad? What's happening are you going somewhere"

He looked at me a little relieved.

"Oh bright ,good you are here I was about to call you ,I am going to your grandpa's "

Still packing

"What? Why? Is everything okay? Why do you look so stressed? Dad ?"

Dad stopped ramaging through his wardrobe and came to me his look of panic and hurry was gone and looked at me with his soft calm eyes ,I didn't realize that I was still standing on the door until he was leading me into his room and made me sit on the sofa which was located at the corner facing the T.V. in his room.
He sat next to me and held me on both side of my shoulder.
"Bright everything is fine as of now, but I and your grandpa had been working on something very important for many years and we have a lead now so I have to go "

"What is it dad?"

" Son I promise I'll tell you everything once I am back, before that I need you to promise me something"

"Hmm,what?"
I am really not getting what dad wants to say I am out of words again...

" I want you to stop searching silver soul for now don't even think about it , don't talk about it even with yourself , don't call me I will call you if something happens ,try to keep yourself in control more than earlier no one should suspect about you being different or even strong be as low-key as you can ,did you understand?"

I am barely keeping up now , things are already so weird and I am trying my best to take things in, to understand everything, to cope up with the fact that I have lost my mom I would never be able to hold her or embrace her ,or talk to her, all I have of hers is my dreams and her letters to hold on. hearing about how much she loved me and what she died for,  that's what keeps me going on without breaking and crying and blaming and getting mad at dad for lying to me all along  Everytime I think I am getting to understand things in a better way it gets more complicated but I know none of it was his fault if anything he also have lost love of his life and had to raise a child all alone , keeping secrets from him to keep him safe and withstand everything alone.
But to understand I need answers I cannot just do what dad says without any clarification.

"But, why dad , what's wrong?"

"Bright.... nothing is wrong for now still we don't know what might happen the next minute and I won't be here to look after everything so I want you to be responsible , things are getting darker bright especially now when you are 18 ,you will attract them our enemies to you ,I just hope time is on our side"

"Dad..... I-I ."

"Hey, its fine buddy I know its alot to handle and you have many questions lingering in your head and I promise you will get all your answers once I am back
I would have tell you everything now but I don't have time I really need to go now.
Please bright this is the last time I am not telling you things I promise it won't happen again."
Dad said solemnly holding my hands firmly trying his best to make me believe him.
