Sometimes it's all fuzzy to remember the past, to go back down memory lane and to think about what's gone on in life that you just want back so badly; to either change for the better or re-live that one moment that had a bad turnout in the beginning. To go back and tell your loved ones you love them over and over again, but now you never can because their gone and will never come back. Sometimes the people that you love, die and you wish they told you more stories; stories that were probably made up, but you still believed because you're just a child, who had a wild imagination; or for them to tell you secrets that should have been said before they left you all alone in the chaotic world. A chaotic world that you now have to think about how to live in alone and fend for yourself, to make decisions that you don't know if they're right or wrong. For me, that's exactly how I was left.

"Sophia my darling, please don't cry anymore. There is nothing to cry about little one," my father explained. I replied, " I'm sorry...but father you're going on another adventure without me, I'm going to be lonely without you, I've always been lonely when you go on these adventures. I have no friends here and nothing to do when your gone."

"My sweet little pumpkin, there is no need to worry about being alone. When I leave the driveway, I want you to go into my office, and in there you should find a friend and books stacked around him, read them and only them," He explained. "But daddy, you never let me in there until now, what's changed?" "Darling, nothing has changed, but please read only the books around your new friend, do you understand?" All I did was nod my head still confused as to why he's only now allowing me to enter his office, but I offer a big smile and saw him smile back. "I love you, my sweet little pumpkin." "I love you too, Daddy." 

With those words, he grabbed his duffle bag of books and clothes, waving goodbye as he left through the front door. I ran to the side window and watched as the vehicle started slowly disappearing down the driveway. Once I knew that vehicle was completely out of sight, I rushed to his office door, once there I raised my hand towards the door knob and froze. 'I've never been allowed in here, but daddy said that I was now allowed in here, only for certain things though,' I thought.

That was the last memory I had of him before I was told that he had gone missing for months, I didn't think much about it because I knew he would be gone for months. That's just what his researched required, I guess.
