Because I Love You

"You look surprised to see me, Olivia. Were you expecting someone else?"

"I wasn't expecting anyone," Olivia said dryly. "What do you want, dad?"

"Can't I visit my daughter without conditions?" Rowan asked as he handed her a bottle of Du Bellay.

"When have you every visited me without some kind of motive?" Olivia asked as she made her way to the kitchen to get two glasses.

"Correspondence Dinner on Saturday, Olivia. Jake's you?" Rowan asked.

"My father cares about my social life, I see." Olivia said flatly while looking at him inquiringly.

"That's not a question." Rowan said with a chuckle.

"I don't have a question for you and I am not going. I just find it a bit odd that you concern yourself so much with what Jake and I are doing or not doing. That's all."

"Olivia, I am a concerned father, I love you and want to see you happy. Nothing more." With that, Rowan exited Liv's apartment.

"Well, Olivia doesn't seem to know about Jake's trip on Saturday, so I guess he didn't feed her that information" Rowan surmised. He wondered if she knew anything about recently files downloaded from B-613. He would get into that a bit later.
