I like this time of day in the clubhouse, only a few stragglers are around and the sun barely makes it through the windows and fills the bar. I only have to wait ten minutes for Kyla to bounce down the stairs ready for work and when she sees me she smiles brightly.

In all my visits to see her as a child, I would make the ride eager to see her innocent smile, I thought we had lost that but now it has returned.

“Hey, you been okay while I was away? I heard you had dinner with Cas and Alannah the other night too.”

“Yeah, Alannah is really nice. Listen, I need to talk to you about something,” her voice changes from light to dark and she has my attention. I knew it, I knew there was something wrong with her. My gut is never wrong.

“Talk on the way,” I mumble, my bad feeling intensifying.

She fidgets in the passenger seat as soon as we are both seated and my attention turns to apprehension.

“Just say what you want to talk about.”

“I spent the whole day yesterday thinking this through, I know it will be hard and I’m prepared to do everything I have to in order to stay clean. I researched groups…”

“Get to the point, Kyla,” I huff, unable to hide my lack of patience any longer.

“I’m ready to go home, I’ll go to counselling, I’ll find a job and help mom out with the house.”

She babbles on so fast it takes a moment for it to sink in what she is saying.

She wants to go home, where has this come from? Before I left she was all about staying here.

“Did you hear me?” she asks.

“Yeah, I heard you.”

I keep my eyes on the road, afraid I’ll lose concentration if I let her words get to me. The rest of the ride is quiet and the tension is thick with unspoken words.

I pull up outside the shop and she stalls.

“Are you okay, dad?”

I finally look at her and see the daughter I can be proud off and now I’m going to lose her.

“I was getting used to having you around,” I admit to her. I’m not giving her the go ahead, it’s more of a statement.

“We’ll still see each other, it won’t be like before. I’m not going to go back to that dark place,” she promises.

When I found out she was an addict I was angry, more than angry, I was furious beyond reasoning. All I feel now is disappointment and it is strangling me from within. I thought I had my daughter back and willingly, now I know she doesn’t want to be here with me.

“We’ll talk more tonight when I pick you up.”

I watch her cross the street and until she is through the door. She has come so far in the last couple of months and her strength is resurfacing and now she wants to leave and I’m not going to see it grow each and every day. I won’t be a part of it.
