Ebony squeezed her father tightly.<em> It could be sometime before I see him again</em>she thought. "Love you" she whispered before quickly stepping back. The young woman quickly brushed past Vennar, as she did so she ducked her head so he would not see her tears.<br/><br/>She headed out of the back door and brushed away the stay tear drops with one hand.
