It seemed like we sat there forever!
My father sat crossed legged on his side and I did the same on mine. I couldn't help but cry, I was too happy that I was there with him. He told me all about Asgard and what I was like as a baby. the whole time we talked he looked at me like he was studying me, trying to take every detail of what his daughter looked like after years and years of being alone.
"My sweet girl I missed you so much! when I found out what the people on the wretched planet did to you I was furious! Are those cuts in the rows on your arm there from them? why would the so that? It looks like a torture systems cuts used to hurt a prisoner and kill them slowly! I will get them back for that I promise!" He said
I look down at what he is talking about, my self harm scars....
"Oh... um, no.... no one did that to me..." I try to speak but my voice fails me. "How do you tell your father, who you've just seen for the first time in 15 years, that you have mutilated yourself?"
"No... my sweet girl... you didn't... impossible..."
I look up and see my father with tears running down his face. he is no longer sitting cross legged, he is on his knees with his hands pressed on the glass.
"What!? How did you-" I begin to say before he cuts me off "I wanted to know who had hurt my beautiful daughter and I heard you say....... why would you do this?""I'm sorry papa..... I just wanted to feel something... something other then the numbness. I guess... I wanted to take back some control over my pain." I can't look at him I'm the eye, how can I? "Hela, I want you happy, I want to protect you, you will never do this to yourself again. Do you understand?" I can't seem to respond when he taps the glass in order to get me to look up. I look up at my father and let out a sigh "ok papa... I promise to try." I say softly giving him a halfhearted smile. "Good." he says letting one hand fall and rest on the floor.
Then suddenly.....
BAM!! "Very sneaky hel! But when I said no one gets it I meant it!"
I swing my head around to see Director Fury standing I'm the doorway with Steve standing next to him looking sympathetic and confused. "CAPTAIN! Please remove Helena and make sure she stays I'm her room!" Fury says without lifting his gaze off me and Steve walks over and lifts me up as I scream! "NO!! LET ME GO! YOU CANT DO THIS!" I shriek as I try to fight my way out of Steves arms as my father bangs on the glass screaming my name! He bellows at Fury to leave me alone! No matter how hard I fight, I don't have the strength to free myself from Steves grasp!
"PAPA!" I scream as the doors close behind us...
"I'm sorry hel... I'm so sorry" Steve whispers as he continues to carry me away but I don't hear him, I don't hear anything but my heart breaking thinking that I may never see my father again...
