Her brother said to her, "Only if you could reach the pinnacle, like him, Dale Burns the greatest detective of all the time, the No. 1. The only who could see a white hair in a pile of snow dust and sense the danger before in touches you, only then you have the right to call yourself a detective. You have to be a great reformer who could lift people up from their devasted lives to a place where they were meant to be only then you're worth calling yourself a detective. You have to be like Dale Burns"
"Hey! I have all the degrees that I need, all the skills perfectly mastered. Why do you always think
I'm not fit for this job. Ever since I became a detective you want me to give it up, why do you do
this?"
"Like if you die I'll have to do all the chores myself which i already do because you never complete any!!!"
"But I want to help people. Help people just like Alex Young did."
"That's all a lie, no one can be so efficient. Stories of Dale Burns, Alex Young all of them are pseudostories, there is only half-reality. Also, I'm not telling you to give up, just that you're a part of my family, i don't want to lose you"
"Oh, so you actually don't hate me, I still hate you though."
"No its not that I can't tell mom broke my biosphere project, which actually nunu did, but then I blame it on you 'cuz no one accepts my cat tore apart my homework anymore"
"Or wait are you jealous I am younger and still have a cooler job than you"
"Nothing's cooler than a pilot's job ..."
"Alright you guys can fight later it's her time to go to her office" mom chimes in and tries to stop the fight.
On the breakfast table, ava was having her favorite for the start of her very new life, quickly finishing her breakfast, the young detective-to-be rushes to hug everyone in her
little family of four and rushes to the door.
"Just take care of yourself and you'll do great," exclaimed her mother picking up the dishes. His
father peeked from behind the newspaper and wished "Good luck, Valeria!" "Bye Val don't trip on your way"
"What the ..."
"What don't expect more from me ..."
"Yeah whatever, bye."
"Ok OK... All the best..."
" Still whatever, and still bye and thank u do the rest"
Both blow raspberry.
And she rushes to her work in her cycle, she was thinking to buy a new car later, you know a detective's salaries are quite generous.
After some time since Val left, Vincent, breaking the silence Vincent said "Mother, don't you think
being a detective is a dangerous task"
"Of course, it is."
"It can kill her"
"I am pretty aware of it"
"Aren't you worried?"
"Do you think I'm not"
"Partly"
"Of course, I am" his mother turned back and continued "I completely aware. I know this could
expose her to the dangers of we can't even imagine but I want her to become what she wants to be. This is what she really, really wanted. She also has talent for it, we can't just take it away because we think it is not safe. She is an adult, she knows how to take care of herself. I am definitely worried but I can't just take her dreams away"
"Yes, but if she wanted something thrilling, she could have become a pilot like be is just as same but
much safer. We are only in risk when we are flying but she has to face danger every second of for
life, isn't that too much"
"Son, being a pilot is as risky as a detective, you say that because it is your perspective. You're in air, the plane can go haywire any minute, hijacking, and also possibly blackmailing you too. She is doing the same thing, but on the ground."
"Ok ok, calm down, maybe now I understand never thought of it in that way, like maybe you're correct."
"Maybe?"
"OK maybe, more than maybe. Fine..."
mom rolls her eyes and gets back to her morning routine, she can't be late to her work too.
"And, don't forget to give Nunu her milk, poor cat, she is starving since morning and everyone's just
too busy since morning" her mother reminded.
"Of course! but that was Val's task. But now I'm supposed to do it. Aghh..."
