 Chance's POV

The next morning, I arrive at the airport feeling excited and not nervous. The jet was beautiful inside/out. I wish Alan would go with me, but he needs to be with his family. I pick a seat. Grant sits behind to give me space I guess. After we were able to get up and move around. I went to Grant,

“Grant sir, Caleb told me I could call him on a satellite phone. May I?” Grant coughs, then smiles handing me the phone.

“Hit #1, then hit send. Our numbers are programed into it. Should make it easier to get ahold of.” I smile at him,

“Thank you sir, I briefly talked to him last night. I was still angry when he called last night. I kept it short so I wouldn't actually lash out at him accidently.” I dial Caleb's number, it was answered quickly.

“Hello?” A female voice answers the phone,

“Hello. I’m Chance. May I talk to Caleb?” I hear her scream,

“Dad! You have a call!” I grimace at the volume of her voice, Grant has walked by chuckling.

“Sounds like your sister, Catlin!” I frown, I really don't remember her. Then I hear another female voice,

“Hello? This is Dakota. Caleb will be here in a minute. Who is this?” I softly clear my throat,

“It's me, Chance. We're in the air on our way.” Dakota chuckles,

“We've been busy getting ready for your return. Here he is.” I hear Caleb clear his throat,

“Hello Chance. How are you this morning?” I shake my head, with a smile of course.

“I’m a little better. Sorry about last night… I was so angry at Carson last night, I was afraid of lashing out at you. I felt you didn't deserve that. We're in the air.” I hear Caleb chuckle,

“That's good. I understand. We knew that conversation with Carson was going to be difficult, your emotions are just  and true.” I nod feeling sad,

“Thanks. I think Carson still feels justified in what he's done. I’m not sure if he feels remorse about it.” Caleb sighs softly,

“I can see that. Hang in there. What are you feeling today?” I sigh rubbing my temples,

“I'm mostly  numb. I don't know what to think.” I replied bluntly,

“We'll see you in a bit. We'll talk things out then. Try to relax, may I ask you something?” Caleb asks quietly, I frown with wild thoughts running through my mind.

“What is it, Caleb?” I ask with interest,

“Would you like all four of us to meet you initially, or with Catlin and Drake?” I furrow my brows for a few moments,

“Who are they? I don't know.” Caleb sighs,

“They are your sister and brother. They're excited about you coming home.” I sigh quietly, it feels over whelming, that it's scary.

“Can it just be you and Dakota first, then we'll see.” It was quiet on the line,

“Chance, how about this…. Dakota and I will meet you at the airport, we would like to take you to one of our favorite places to eat. They could meet us there, where we'll all be in public. If you ever feel uncomfortable,  just let me know. i'll help you leave.” I exhale and let relief  flow out of me,

“Thank you, I appreciate all of your help.” Caleb let's out a light chuckle,

“You're welcome, Chance.” I clear my voice,
