章 294: Prepared Enough?

Aberdeen City, many years prior 

Garan looked at his Althea excitedly buying her camping gear. She looked almost as excited as when she entered her first seed store many years ago.

She had just entered college years earlier than her peers and he still felt she wasn't ready to go on this excursion. 

This was the first time she'd ever be so far from him and the family. When he was gone, he at least knew the family was there and she was safe. What was this now? 

However, Garan knew he wouldn't be able to stop her. Mostly, he couldn't bear break her heart by stopping her from doing what she loved simply because he felt uncomfortable.
