I know I dont tell you enough that youre important to me. Im afraid of you, and your ability to love me unconditionally and without question. I really want for this to work out, keep up with everything youre doing because it inspires me as a person to do more for myself, hence to bring a better unity to you and i. It makes me happy when you are happy, and no matter how incomplete i feel without you in my life just know you are in my heart and on my mind.. ↗

For a moment, there was silnece, and then at Brooke's nod, the rest of the Squad, minus me, chimed in. "Yes, sir." I said nothing.

And somehow, he had the freaky ability to ascertain that of all of us, I was the one who hadn't responded. "Do you understand?" I contemplated telling him what I didn't understand was his familial relationshiops, but stayed momentarily silent, causing everyone within a three-foot radius to kick me under the table at once. "Ow!" I cleared my throat. "I mean, yes." I didn't throw the sir on the end, but apparently, that was good enough for the Voice. "Excellent.
