Simon has been your father's bestfriend for as long as you remember, he has such a strong platonic relationship between the both of you sometimes you prefer him over your father, innocently.

Today was just like one of the many days, you come back to see your father and Simon chattering about old military times in the front porch of your house, Simon's face lights up once he sees you, he couldn't help but greet you warmly. "My big champ's back now, yes?" He said, ruffling your hair gently.
