I still don’t, honestly.
I figured I would make one last post for now, though.
A sort of goodbye for now, if you will.
I might be back online.
But for now, I have bigger things to conquer.
Men to meet, a daughter to visit, and a life to live.
Its been fun.
And I just might come back someday.
So until then,
Bryan Orson Strider,
signing off.
“Yeah, I know. I just never really thought of visiting earlier, since i’m still kind of rebounding, in a sense,” You respond with a shrug. “You can take her.”
“You’ll find someone, Bry.” You say with a gentle smile, kissing his cheek lightly. “Say bye to Daddy, Katie.” You say warmly, handing her to him. She smiles and tells him bye in English, hugging him.
You gladly take your baby girl into your arms, pressing a kiss to her cheek and hugging her. You promise her that you won’t be such a stranger next time, and hand her back to Anna.
“Just… I’ve already told you that I don’t want her bouncing from house to house. You can come visit her when you want. Plus, you could have in the two or three weeks I was at home still.” You give him a bit of a tough look then shake your head, softening up,

You smile lightly as they catch up, in a way. You were glad to have spent this time with your daughter, but if Anna wanted her back, you had no choice but to let her leave with her.
You sigh, relaxing, then smile at Bryan. “I guess I really should ask if I can take her home, I mean…” You trail off, smile falling a bit, but not leaving. As long as you had Katrina, everything would be fine.
“I mean, I’d like to spend more than a few days with her,” You start, glancing from your daughter to Anna. “But if you need her, I really have no right to keep her longer.”
“Kit-kat!” You say, then hurry towards her, scooping her up into the air and catching her. You cuddle her into your chest, both of you babbling in Greek. “Mommy missed you!” She smiles at the familiar language and you nuzzle her hair, soft and the same white-blond as yours.

You hear the knocking, and get up off the couch to answer the door. You knew that it was Anna without even looking through the peephole, seeing as she said she would be visiting.
You open the door, giving her a smile as you let her in. “I’m glad you’re doing okay.”
“If you can call it that.” You say with a frown, looking around. “I hope you’re doing well?” You ask, looking a bit nervous, trying to find your daughter.
“As well as I can get, I suppose,” You respond with a slight nod. Katie, who had been sitting in the living room playing with her toys and watching cartoons, made an excited noise as she heard her mother’s voice, and began to crawl towards her. She hadn’t quite gotten the full hang of walking yet.
It’s not long before you’re knocking on Bryan’s door, looking around anxiously. You wanted to see your baby girl a lot, you missed her. And she’s kind of the only constant in your life right now.
