I couldn’t fall back to sleep and ended up sitting in a chair in the Pink Hippo’s lobby. When McGarrett came through I told him Jesse had gone on a run and that he’d return at 6. I started to plead with him that I was well enough and that I could help. But I knew I’d lost my case immediately.

“It’s too risky,” he said. “We just don’t know what effect the HowlSage is having on you. You’re already younger then you should be. Ike was—is too,” he corrected himself.

I slunk down in the winged chair. McGarrett came closer and sat on the arm rest.

“Taylor, my boy. I have to look out for you, and sometimes that means not giving you what you want.”

I shrugged and looked down at my knees. He stood and I heard him leave through the front door. I wanted to rebel, but what he’d said had meant something to me.

While I’d not admitted it even to myself, I’d been feeling so alone in this world. With my parents gone, I didn’t think there was anyone who’d ever care for me as only they could. But I was quickly realizing that this man and his wife were doing their very best, and it wasn’t because they had to.
