Stone Circle I'm still here

It wasn't long before her mother showed up, and Steph gave her a soft smile as she received her lick. Her eyes went back to the valley, and it was a few moments before she spoke. I called for Ezekiel, she confessed, refusing to call him "Dad". He didn't come. Her voice was mostly void of any emotion, as she honestly didn't care because she thought she'd always have Murdock.

I don't like Moo's new friend, she said honestly. He seems to have all his focus on her. And none on Steph. It was true she hadn't sought him out, because she was scared of being rejected again. @Murdock was the only father figure she had ever known, and to have his attentions elsewhere just hurt.
