It's complicated, and I didn't really understand it at the time I explained it to you, either. My dad... was afraid for my safety, away from where he could protect me. He told me that was all he could think about, rather than what I wanted. It's that, and-- there's a kind of loyalty you have to have on this job, in this life. Expectations that I'll give up anything for family and for the greater good. Not here, though; the situation here is different. For now, anyway
The reason my family is like this is just because we all care too damn much about other people, Jess. About our own family, about the other people we love, about people we don't even know. They already care about you just because of how much you mean to me, even if they really don't know how to show it.
