"I need Ideas! Review!"
Emy went with Jack to spend that night at his house."Hey Dad?" Emy asked looking up at him as he drove.
"Yeah?" Jack replied, looking at her shortly then back to the road.
"Do you love Mom"
"I can't answer that, honey." He looked sad.
"But I'm your daughter." Emy pleaded.
"Yes you are. But if I truthfully answered that question, I'd be braking the regs"
"Mommy told me that she loved you." Emy pouted. Jack pulled over and looked at her.
"She did?" He couldn't believe it!
"Yep. So are you gonna tell me or what"
"Fine. Maybe, ok, Yes." Jack got back on the road.
"Then why aren't you married?" Emy looked up fully knowing the answer.
"Because we're in the air force and she's my 2IC. And there are Frat regs that say-"
"That
you two can't act on those feelings. Yes, I know. I got the same answer
out of mom. But I mean why are you still in the air force? If you
retired, you could be happy"
"I am happy." Jack knew that wasn't true.
"No. no, you're content." Emy tried. Jack breathed out a little, almost a laugh.
"I never thought I'd talk to a six year old about this." He kept his eyes on the road.
"Don't
change the subject. You and mom love each other. So why aren't you
doing something about it? You could retire. Mom's wondering if you love
her. The only reason she hasn't retired is because of her contract."
Emy looked at Jack intently.
"She has a contract too?" Jack looked tired, hurt, and sad.
"You have one?" Emy looked towards the ground.
"Yeah. I have to stay in the stargate program." Emy's face lit up.
"But you don't have to be a colonel in the process. You could be a civilian?" Emy looked up hopefully.
"True. I'll think about it." Jack winked.
