Mike’s Assurance
“I believe I can help,” Mike said, his voice carrying a cryptic assurance. He didn’t reveal details, but his confidence offered a glimmer of hope. Jamie and I exchanged uncertain yet relieved glances, intrigued and calmed by the sense that Mike had a plan—a hidden advantage we couldn’t see. Slowly, the tension in the air eased, replaced by a growing anticipation for what might come next.

Curiosity Overcomes Frustration
Frustration gave way to curiosity as I wondered what Mike, with his SEAL training and commanding presence, could do to help Grandpa. I glanced at Jamie, who was clearly thinking the same thing—Mike had offered nothing but hope and a promise. Somehow, we trusted him, even without fully understanding why, and I couldn’t help but wonder if he would persuade the guards or if he held knowledge that could change everything.
