"I'm tired of all this Alton!" "Christina if you'll sit down for five seconds we'll talk this out! " "I don't have too!" "Goodness Chrstina our eight year old daughter throws less tantrums than oyu recently!" Jen just sighed this was her life the past year . Her listening to her parents argue over something stupid then make up then be good for a few days then start again. Today christina was putting Alton down alot Jen had no idea what he had done to set her off but he did it and boy had he done it.

"Do you even care!" "Ofcourse I care Christina!" "You're never here!" "Ofcourse I am!" "Stop conderdicting me!" "Stop telling me what I do and do not do!" "You off for months on voyages , take my daughter , then I hardly hear from you any more!" "Oh just stop it christina you know out in the middle of space I cannot just pick up the phone and dial you!"

"you could write!" "You're right but by the time it got to you we'd be home you know that!" "You're just making excuses Alton but it's not going to work! You want Jeanine to be what you are have you ever sat back and wondered if she wants to be!" "I have talk to Jeanine and she said she did." "you're her father of course she'll say yes! i'm starting to think-" "Stop it you to !" Jen yelled getting between them.

"Jeanine get out of this it has nothing to involve you." "Mom you were talking about meAll you two do is fight! I'm sick of it! You argue about me as if Im not even here!" Christina satered to say something when Jen kept going , "All you argue about is my feuture or who loves me! when i nreality neither one of you even ask me anything so it makes me wonder if you even care about me!" She snapped and ran up the stairs. Both her parents stood there stunned. "Alton.." "i'll go talk to her."

"Jeanine?" "Go away daddy." "Darling we're sorry. Your mother and I we...just worry about your future." "but you don't have to fight about it dad." she turned toward him. "You're right." he sighed. "but sometimes that happens. " "Sometimes.." "Jen listen to me I'll try what i can to stop the argueing ." she smiled and hugged her father. "but know this Jen , I do love you very much."

Now seven years later Jen almost would take back those times. Or atleast wish things had ended up different. she seen quickly her father was her best friend and always would be. She looked over his way he was writing in the log book mumbling to him self and every now and then dipping his quill pen into the ink. It was cold and rainy out side so they had mostly been in the stateroom all day.

Her father had taken it hard when her mother left that day . Jen had been doodleing and was now growing bored taking a risk of ticking him off she crumbled up and pieace of papaer and threw it at him hitting him in the head. He stopped for a moment and Jen herd him take a deep brealth. "Jeanine what are you doing?" "nothing." He looked over at her and shook his head but tossed back the paper ball. "Dear im trying to write now please." He turned back around and continued on. She tossed it again pressing on her luck .

"Jeanine!" "Yes dad?" she asked innocently as possible. "Stop throwing things at me I am trying to work." "I'm not doing anything daddy." "so you want to play?" "Perhaps." She grinned. But he just turned around causeing Jen to roll her eyes. 'Party pooper...' Suddenly she seem something coming for her and dodged it. "what tha- okay thats how you want to play?"

the room became a battle ground of paper and laughter. It wasn't till doctor doppler came in trying to get to his room did they stop. "Well Jen I geussed we'd better pick this up. "Awh I don't wanna daddy." she play pouted causing him to chuckled. "Your not a little child any more Jen you've lost your touch." He said handing her a trash can. By the time they got cleaned up it was time for bed. Once Jen was ready for bed she noticed she left her pen in the stateroom 'I don't wanna go out into there..Doppler likes to go in there and write too hmm I'll go ask dad if I can borrow one.'

Walking out in her tank top and Pj pants she quitely made it to her father's room. "Daddy?" "Yes Jen? " "Can I borrow a pen?" "where is yours?" "Out there.." "alright." He smirked and handed it to her. "thank dad love you ." "I love you Jeanine." "I know." she smield and turned to leave. "Hey." "Yeah?" "I don't get a hug? Or anything ." "Dad." shje rolled her eyes and hugged him. "night dad." "night Jen." she shut the door and walked out.
