Andy could tell when she got to her dads house that he was still not happy. She took a deep breathe and then knocked on the door. Pruitt answered immediately and waved her into the house. She went to the living room and sat down. Pruitt paced in the living room, Andy finally asked him to sit down,because he was making her nervous. Pruitt sat and looked at her expectantly.
Andy took another deep breathe. "Dad, I know how that must have looked at the station. Robert and I have become friends….especially after the aid car accident. We've been talking about our pasts and about the accident. Dad, you don't know how close it was we were almost ready to give up, when you found us." Andy is talking through tears. Pruitt stays quiet because he hadn't seen Andy like this for a long time, he gave her quiet and time to process what she wanted to say.
After a brief break Andy looks up and says, " dad, I'm really happy with where things are at now, and where I think they're going. Yes it's going to be complicated with our jobs, but I think we can handle it. And if it gets more serious we will talk to who we need to." Right now we really are good friends, and I think there is potential for more".
Pruitt sighs. It's his turn to take a deep breathe. He looks at Andy seriously, and says , " I want you to remember who you are and what it took you to get here. Please think about it Andrea, I don't want to see you repeat past mistakes. You know as well as I do, that workplace relationships often don't work out. Having said that, after hearing you talk about him….I can tell you care about each other. Andrea, I'm not happy about this, but I want you to be happy. Please be careful though."
Andy nods and smiles at her dad, silence hanging between them. She takes another breath and gets up, putting her arms around her dad, "Thank you Papi, I really like him, and I will keep in mind what you said. Since our accident there's just been something….." she trails off and gives her dad one last hug before heading home to her apartment.
