We spent most of the night talking, and when we finally called it a night my parents stayed with me until I fell asleep. It wasn’t unusual for them to stay for a couple of nights, but when my sister came home late one night she found them there with me sleeping peacefully. When she questioned my parents, they simply told her that they were staying with me and would leave after breakfast the next day. As usual, they were very protective of me, always telling their daughter to be careful and never to cross paths with strangers. Tyler was very considerate to me when it came to things. He wasn’t afraid to show affection or show concern. And I appreciated it very much, but sometimes it didn’t seem appropriate or natural for him to show it in such an intimate manner, especially if someone else
