My day seems to be one big excuse
as to why I have to leave to
do a job I can tell no one about.
Sure I wouldn't give up
saving the galaxy day
after day, but I wish
I could tell my friends... tell him
what I really do
when I run off instead of lying.

That is the life of a galactic guardian
living on an 'untouched' world
sometimes I wish I was on one of
any of the miriad of touched worlds
so I didn't have to keep secrets
from those I hold dear
but this is my life.

I look to my Granny for support
I am so much like her
then I found out that she was
one of the founders of the guardians
which is one of the reasons that I was even
considered to join
to have these secrets that I keep
from the world around me.

I can tell Granny my secrets
tell her what happens on my missions
she can give me praise
she gives me advice from her
experience as a guardian.
Advice that I cherish
and use to my advantage.

She hugs me and tells me
she is proud of me
and my acomplishments
as a guardian and
it just means that she and I
have one more thing in common.

Her name is Beatrixo,
they call her Bea
my name is Betty
I guess in a way her name
influenced mine.
Admiral DeGill told me
a lot about Granny and what she
was like in the guardians
when she was younger, although it
sometimes seems like she hasn't aged
that much from her days as a guardian.
That's what I like about her
she's my Granny and no matter what
she will always be one of my best friends.

The End
