He ordered her coffee and paid for it before handing it back to her. Her comment curled the corners of his fine lips into a little smile before he leaned back in his chair and waited his much more complicated coffee. When she thanked him for cleaning up, he could feel his cheeks turn a slight color of pink. [i]Damnit.[/i] He thought, [i]She caught me…[/i] Though she wasn’t mad about him touching her stuff, in fact she seemed more grateful than offended. That’s a good sign, “I apologize if I overstepped my bounds. But I’m glad I could be of some help where it’s needed.” He responded with a nod before taking his coffee from the shop worker and dropping a few bills into the tip jar as they drove off. 

Reaching over into the passenger’s seat he grabbed the folder containing her information about her. “Read through this and make sure all the information is correct.” With the small file he handed her, a page described her parents; it listed her mother as dead and her father as alive but no more details than that. Would she recognize that her father was actually alive according to the paperwork?

The piece in his ear rang and he excused himself to take the call, “Hey Serge did you get her?” Elias’s voice rang through the ear piece.

“Yes.” Serge answered back simply.

“Great! It’s going to be a fun reunion for the father and daughter team! Tears of joy. You told her right…” Serge stayed silent on the other end of the phone before Elias spoke up again. “You didn’t tell her?!”

“She is briefing the file as we speak.” He replied.

“Serge! She needs to know before she gets here or the shock could be too much.”

“I’m not good at things like that…” He said softly as if sounding embarrassed.

“Look Serge, the poor girl; she’s probably spent her whole life thinking her father is dead and she’s about to meet him face to face. Much less the next president of the united states… Serge, you need to tell her!” A small sigh escaped Serge as he contemplated in his head on how to tell her. He was a straight laced fella and would most likely come out and just say it. Elias however, knew this about their group’s leader and quickly spoke in. “You have to approach it with some tactic. If you don’t she might just jump out of the car.”

“Alright, we will be parking out front in 17 minutes.” Serge said into the ear piece before clicking the phone off and his brain began to work. How can he approach this ‘delicately’?!
