Tyler thought about what he said and sighed. He sailed out of the harbor and prepared for the trip back to Newfoundland. He had plenty of fuel in which he didn't need to refuel there. His nav. pointed him in the direction to go. His bow pointed up out to sea, but his gaze pointed down to his winch.

"Tyler!" The familiar, gruff voice snapped the tug from his thoughts and he whirled around. Pa was coming towards him, angry as could be.

"P-Pa?" Tyler seemed to cower into the water and Kenneth kept by his side.

"We are going home right now." Pa growled. "I can't believe you left again like that after I told you not to!"

"I'm sorry, I-I had to find Josh. But, he didn't want to come back with me.." Tyler looked down, feeling his tears threatening to come back.

"I told you to leave this business with the officials." Pa frowned. "You are just a kid. You have no business traveling across the world with just a pitty on board!"

"Hey, but he did it." Kenneth spoke up in an attempt to stand up for the tug. "We beat a water tornado, we almost ran out of fuel, we traveled thousands of miles and it was all because of him."

"You got caught in a storm?" Pa raised his voice and Tyler winced at his voice.

"Y-yeah, but, we got out of it."

"Just because you 'got out of it' does not make me any happier. You still disobeyed me. What would've happened if you didn't get out of it? What then, Tyler? What would've happened?"

Tyler didn't want to answer, even though he knew the answer.

"You would've sunk, right to the bottom."

"Hey, go easy on him, huh? He just lost his best friend to some stupid racing fame!" Kenneth said.

"Do you think I really care about that?" Pa snapped. "I care about my son not dying over the damn ocean! We are going home, right now." He pivoted around and headed out to open sea. Tyler followed quickly, his emotion bubbling over to tears, but he tried to blink them away. Kenneth tried to give him comfort, but there was nothing much for him to do as he followed his dad home.

Tyler followed silently and kept up with Pa best he could through his blurry vision. Kenneth tried to comfort Tyler best her could, but nothing really worked.

"We're gonna stop at Newfoundland to refuel. You need to refuel at all?" Pa spoke abruptly, and Tyler hardly even caught what he said and paused.

"Yeah, he'll need to." Kenneth said for Tyler. Tyler glanced at him but then moved his gaze back to the water bubbling up behind Pa.

"Want me to talk to him?" Kenneth asked gently. Tyler didn't even know, so he didn't respond. "C'mon, lift me up, I'll chat with him, okay?" Tyler hesitated before speeding up a little and lifted his deck up to Pa's level so he could switch boats. Pa glanced back to Kenneth but switched his gaze back to the ocean.

"Hey, can we talk a little?" Kenneth asked gently.

"What's there to talk about?" Pa asked bluntly.

"Well, I mean, Tyler's kinda havin' a rough time right now and-"

"Rough time?" Pa flicked his gaze at Kenneth. "You're talkin' about this bein' a rough time? What about me, the tug you two left behind? Did you know I had to push and tug six shipments over the span you were gone?" He asked, making Kenneth pause. "Six shipments enterin' and leavin' is a lot for one tugboat!"

"Okay, yeah, I apologize for that. I forgot this week was gonna be the busiest one this month. That's on us. I'm not saying Tyler's problem is bigger, but I mean, you know Josh was the only one Tyler had to relate to. Now he has no one."

"He's got you, don't he?"

"Yeah, but, I'm not a boat. I can't do the things he can. I can't race around the harbor like he an' Josh used to do, I can only ride. I mean, the kid wants to cry right now, but, he's so tired and confused he can't, I can just tell. Can you tell?"

Pa looked at Kenneth then back at Tyler, who was still silently following and staring down at the water sadly.

"I'm just tryna say you should give him a break. I've honestly never seen him this sad where he doesn't even want to talk. But, I'll try to talk with him more." Kenneth hesitated to see if Pa had anything more to say and when he was silent, he moved back to jump back aboard Tyler. He didn't talk to Tyler though, he just leaned up against his cabin and tried to be in some way comforting to him.

Pa pulled up to the same Newfoundland docks Tyler and Kenneth had previously entered before to refuel. Kenneth jumped off of Tyler to refuel the jugs while Pa was refueled as well. Tyler had yet to say a single word, let alone even look at Pa. Pa was still a little cross to even talk to Tyler at that moment.

"Tyler! Yer back!" A voice called out and Tyler perked up a little, seeing the red tugboat again. Dolly.

"Hey, Dolly." Tyler smiled softly.

"Did you find your friend at all?" She asked then noticed Pa looking in her direction and froze. Pa glanced at her then away. It took a moment for Dolly to find her words again. "Uh, h-he was the white yacht, right?"

"Yeah." Tyler said slowly. "And yeah, we found him. He didn't care to come back with me though."

Dolly frowned. "Oh, I'm so sorry, dear." She gave him a small comforting nuzzle which Tyler smiled a little at.

"Hey, you made him smile!" Kenneth chuckled a little making his way back to Tyler. Tyler smiled a little more. "I've been trying to get 'im to crack one this entire time."

"A little love goes a long way." Dolly smiled. "Who do you have here, Tyler?"

"Oh, he's my Pa." Tyler said. "He came to get me."

"Oh, that was nice." She could tell there was tension in the air when Pa didn't respond, nor look over.

"You ready to go?" Pa asked Tyler and with a nod from Kenneth, he nodded.

"Maybe I'll see you again, Dolly." Tyler smiled a little and followed Pa back out to the ocean.

"I know you will. If you ever wanna talk, my radio's always open!" Dolly called out and rang her bell farewell.
