"Mom never backed down from a fight." She shrugs and puts her phone away. She loved taking pictures, but this was familiar ground with her father.

The smile faded from his lips but he nodded slowly.

"No she didn't. Nothing in the world scared your Momma..."

Except for maybe the thought that their only child would grow up to be just like them.

She looks up at the change in his tone with a small frown. After a moment of silence, she reaches up and uses her index fingers to lift the edges of his mouth upward into a smile, albeit a forced one.

More pressure against her fingers as she lifted them higher.

"No, the other way."

He laughed despite himself. He couldn't stay upset at her.

She feels better as he laughs, relaxing as she draws her hands away. She knew talking about Mom made him sad, so she always tried to find a way to make things brighter afterwards.

"Much better," she declares with a decisive nod. "You pass."

"I pass?"

His jaw dropped.

"Excuse you Missy. But I'm the instructor here!"

She beams. "Only until I kick your ass."

"Nope!" She seems fine with that particular detail as she sits up and brushes off the dirt still clinging to her.

"That's okay, though. Maybe someone else will distract you, so you never see me coming." The mischief creeps back into her voice.

"Nope." Again, she seems quite pleased with herself.

"I'll win 'cause I know you best."

"Spoilers!" Her voice has a sing-song chime to it. "Besides, if you know the plan, then you have time to figure out how to counter it."

"Uhm, maybe we'll co-train." She hugs her book bag to her chest, giving her father a thoughtful look before shaking her head. "I don't think you'd like retirement."

"The day I retire is the day I die."

She had nothing to worry about.

The bell rings in the new hour as they banter, causing Evelyn bolt upright with wide eyes.

"Crap! We're going to miss it!"

"Well let's get going then!"

He'd pick himself up and they'd be off!
