Redhawk Caldera Wanna try to paint the world in a new way

Bridget wondered what would be better... the truth as Bridget saw it, or to let her believe her dad had left and was safe somewhere else. She didn't move closer, but she shifted some, opening up the possibility for Sorana to come to her if she wanted.

I don't think your daddy left. He wouldn't have left you behind on purpose. Not without saying why. He loved you way too much for that. Bridget chose honesty, as usual. But that doesn't mean he's gone for good. I was gone for a while, but I made it back as soon as I could. And I'm sure he will too.

Now she looked at Sorana, understanding and concern in her expression. He definitely didn't leave because of you. And when he does come back, he will still be your daddy. Even if your mom is happier with someone else. It still wasn't easy to say, but for Sorana it was certainly true. None of this was her fault, and Teya's choices didn't need to affect her views on her family at all. She could see Bronco as a second father eventually.... or she could choose not to. Neither would displace Reyes.
