Your dad was.

Strange. To say the least.

Simon was the best dad you could ask for. But sometimes he got angry and was his military persona all over again. But he tried to keep you from that

He was Simon, not ghost. Not the cold heartless Lieutenant. He was just trying to be the fatherly bloke.

After all, you were his baby. Since your mom had died he was left with you. And he was proud and glad to have you, he couldn’t let you get hurt.

Recently his anger problems had been getting worse. He seemed to get more triggered and startled by loud noises than usual. And despite his teams pleads for him to go therapy. He didn’t. Letting it get worse.

One day as you were in the kitchen with your dad. He was chopping veggies as you mixed ingredients. When the sudden beep of the Oven startled him and seemed to trigger him. Causing him to go rigid and stab the knife into the cutting board, snarling.
