***Harry's P.O.V.***
Well, that whole Skype fiasco was a disaster. Gemma was about ready to kill me when I had turned off the computer before she could see Elizabeth, but I almost killed her when I found her back on it. Now Elizabeth knew that I was just a love sick mess. I just hoped that she liked her present and then maybe I would gain a bit of her trust back. I liked to think that we were moving forward with everything, and it was comforting to have the memories from when we were in New York.
Speaking of which, I still had her father's letter tucked away in my suitcase. Everyone else in my house was asleep because it was now one o'clock. I had been staying up to see if Elizabeth would call me but she hadn't so far. I pulled out the envelope with her father's handwriting on the front and then opened it to find a few papers with more writing on them and a flash drive. Elizabeth had told me that her father was a bit old fashioned, but I hadn't expected a handwritten letter. Nevertheless, I read his letter thoroughly. I could only imagine what he would have to say to me after I told him... well, everything.
Harold,
I wasn't exactly sure what to think of you when you first showed up with my daughter in New York. My wife had neglected to tell me that Elizabeth would be staying with you when she was stuck in the United Kingdom. You can imagine how confused I was to see you with her, but you proved yourself to be a good guy in my standards. That was until you told me what you did to my daughter.
I commend you for being brave enough to look me in the eye and tell me what you had done. It caught me a bit off guard when you explained that you two had been dating because I always imagined my daughter with a more grounded Christian man like Darren. However, after what you told me about him I am reevaluating just what that standard is. And don't worry about him, I'll make sure he gets what's coming to him and Elizabeth wont have to find out.
Above all, you told me the truth about everything and I am grateful for that. Like I said with the whole Darren situation, Elizabeth wont know that we had this talk. As for your relationship with my daughter; I don't trust you completely, but I do trust Elizabeth and her decisions. She is wise beyond her years and if she thinks she can trust you then I am just going to have to believe her. As I said before, it was very prudent of you to come to me with this and I admire you for being able to. If I was in your place I don't think I would have and I doubt many others would have either.
Therefore, with a lot of thought put into this conclusion, I give you my blessing to date my daughter again if she happens to accept your offer. However, if you ever mess up like you did before again, I will not think twice about taking more drastic measures.
With This Being Said,
Mr. Shakel
P.S. I know you spoke of wanting to get Elizabeth a more sentimental gift than that charm bracelet you told my wife of, and I think if you could manage to transfer these videos to a CD, she would be more than excited to receive them for a gift. Be expecting a bit of tears, though. All you will need is on the flash drive.
I turned the flash drive over in my hand and wondered what could be on it before plugging it into my laptop to find out. After seeing what it was, and looking over the videos, I smiled a bit. She was going to like this.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So that's what the letter said. What do you think about Harry telling Elizabeth's father about everything. And I mean everything: Darren cheating, Harry and her's relationship that she kept secret from her parents, and when he tried to take advantage of her.
