Life Finds a way

Sorry Dad

When Owen and I continued to walk off the boat my father walked towards me.

"Jasmine Ann Malcolm, what in the world were you thinking?"

"Dad, Claire offered me a job and I had absolutely no idea it was going to be about dinosaurs," I said trying to explain.

"Who's this?" Ian looked at Owen as his hands were on his hips.

Before I could speak Owen did and my heart started pumping faster.

"I'm Owen Grady sir, I am.. or was the Velociraptor trainer at the island," Owen said.

"Did you say a Velociraptor?" Ian said with wide eyes.

"Yes, four of my Raptors that I've trained since birth took a liking to your daughter instantly," Owen said with pride.

Ian scoffed "I wonder why, they probably knew you were a Malcolm."

"No, dad they protected me. They didn't like anyone touching me or hurting me. Also, dad, I saw her. " I said with a whisper.

"Jasmine that can't be it was 1993 when I saw her. There's no way she survived all these years," Ian said.

"Dad it was her. The scars and the way you use to describe her to me. I stood in front of her and she didn't attack me." I said waiting for his big reaction.

"YOU DID WHAT!?" he yelled as some people turned and looked.

"She looked at me and bowed her head then walked off. I think it's because I saved her from almost being killed by the Indominus Rex that Claire created." I said.

Ian started rubbing his temples and looked back at Owen and me.

"I got three things to say to you. One is stay away from Claire if she is going to continue this ridiculous mess John Hammond has created. Two no more going to an island that have funny names or that you don't know. Three stay away from dinosaurs. Now let's go."

Just as Ian was about to walk away he turned back.

"Oh, and one more thing STAY OFF THAT DAMN ISLAND."

My body felt numb for upsetting my father and I didn't know what to do. Part of me wanted to yell at Claire for what she did and the other part wanted to get back on that boat and go back to the island and stay there. I don't know what to do right now, I just want to sleep hopefully this is just a nightmare.

I gave Owen a hug.

"Will I see you again?" Owen asked

"Maybe," I said.

I gave him a kiss on the cheek and that was the last we saw of each other.
