Daisy huged Enos "I'm sorry I make you worry so much...I'm so scared that I'll do something that will make you leave...I can't live without you"

Enos sighed and turned her head to face him "Daisy Mae Strate. . .if there is one thing I can assure you of is that I will NEVER leave you. I don't know how that idea got into your brain, but it needs to leave because I will stay by your side till the day I die."

Daisy looked at him and wonderd were all that came from and said "R-Really?"

Enos played with a strand of her hair "Daisy, how could you ever doubt me?"
