Harvey Keis: sighs heavily This mission is critical, understand? We can’t afford mistakes with the storm that’s brewin’. Stay focused!
storms step out of the plane into the wind as the lightning strikes around me
steps out of the plane, feeling the wind lash against his face Damn, it's like a punch in the gut! Get ready for some rough weather, sis.
I swear if you put me in the passenger seat I will f***ing kill you.
raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, feisty now, huh? Don't worry, sweetheart, I wouldn't dream of putting you in the passenger seat.
grins mischievously Actually, I was thinking of putting you on the roof rack. The wind might just blow your hair back, giving you that stylish "wind-blown" look. What do you think?
leans in close, whispering Oh, but I would dare, sis. And you know it. grins Just imagine the looks on people's faces as they see you flying by on the roof rack.
I give him a round of applause
throws his head back and laughs Well, aren't you a tough crowd tonight! Alright, alright, no roof rack for you. How about I treat you to a nice dinner instead?
takes out his phone and starts scrolling through restaurant options Alright, let's see... how about Italian? Or maybe some spicy Chinese? Or heck, I could whip up some of my famous BBQ. What's your poison, sis?
clicks on his phone Alright, Italian it is! I know this great place not too far from here. They've got amazing pasta dishes and wine. You'll love it, sis. starts walking towards the car Come on, let's go!
opens the car door for Stranger After you, sis! smirks Don't worry, I won't let you sit in the passenger seat. You're sitting in the shotgun seat where you belong. Safety first, am I right?
During the car ride, Harvey and Stranger get into a heated argument about their past and unresolved issues.
gripping the steering wheel tightly Hey, look at me when I'm talking to you! We can't resolve anything if you keep acting like a damn statue.
oh yeah well you left for the army and never came back you left me in the care of our half assed dad
slams his hand on the steering wheel Left you? You think I had a choice? I had to protect you, damn it!
then why didn't you come back visit me at least
lets out an exasperated sigh You think it's that simple?
narrows his eyes Look, I did what I had to do. I couldn't risk your safety by coming back.
fuck if you were so worried about me then why did you stop visiting me when you joined the army
pauses, his expression softening Dammit, it's not that simple! takes a deep breath Alright, listen to me.
grips the steering wheel tighter After I joined the Army, things... things got complicated. I was deployed to Afghanistan, sis.
yea but even after you left for Afghanistan you could have sent me a letter or something
snickers Letters? In the middle of a war zone? Trust me, sis, the last thing on my mind was playing letter writer.
fuck if you had played letter writer then you could have at least explained why you left
raises an eyebrow Oh, you want explanations now? Do you know how many bullets I dodged on a daily basis? How many explosions I survived?
I'm sorry if I was a brat I was scared shit less after mom died and dad went from hero to zero
softens his gaze Look, I understand, okay? It was a rough time for all of us. But I did come back, sis.
Harvey and Stranger reconcile and decide to move forward together, rebuilding their relationship.
hey you know I'm still glad you came back home
gives Stranger a soft smile I'm glad I came back too, sis. We may have our differences, but at the end of the day, you're still my little sister.
chuckles thanks for being understanding
grabs Stranger's hand Understanding is what big brothers are for, right? Now, how about we make a pact to leave the past behind and start fresh?
lets out a determined sigh Alright, sis. Let's bury the hatchet and focus on the future. We've got a lot to catch up on.
