A rustle in the woods just a few yards off, something large, and then a low growl.
I turned from the deserted campsite and made my way back.
I returned to camp just after dark to find Dad crouched around the fire, the smell of bacon and ham wafting from the pan he held above the roaring flame.
More campers?
No, it looks like it's been there for a while.
It's pretty ratty, and the fire's overgrown.
His expression softened as he turned his attention back to the fire.
He explained that there had been a flood a couple years back and some people had to evacuate.
That there are probably a few old campsites around here.
Here, he said handing me a plate before cracking another egg into the pan.
Breakfast for dinner.
My favorite.
And an obvious olive branch from Dad.
We ate in relative silence, neither knowing what to say.
Dad staring off and past the fire into the encroaching twilight.
Likely agonizing over how to begin the conversation, I guess.
In the glow of the campfire, his features looked distorted, menacing.
I paused, the eggs now feeling mushy and unpalatable in my mouth.
I mean we can't go back to the way it was before, you realize that, yeah?
I nodded, still unnerved by his choice of wording.
