Cory lifted his head as Solsken turned to leave. His eyes softened, and he scrunched his nose bitterly at himself. He was just a kid, what was he doing? He nudged Vintara a bit, and then glanced at Solsken with softened eyes. “Mmh..you’re right. I shouldn’t have assumed. I don’t even know your name,” he called out to them, in an attempt to stop them from wandering off any further. He didn’t want to move because Vintara was still by his legs, and right now he was all that mattered. Cory had thought Vintara would’ve moved on by now and left, so the turtle’s presence was an unexpected surprise.
When Seven spoke, he steeled himself. She had always been a strong voice, and he knew she cared for Aesior just as much as he did. His anger was not directed at her, but a byproduct of how he felt with himself. Acknowledging this for perhaps the first time ever, he nodded his head. “I have another. Don’t worry,” he told her, not bothering to stop her.
He looked to Atticus with narrowed slits in his eyes. “I never placed myself above him. I am a father. Maybe not theirs,” he said motioning to Solsken. “I didn’t know Vintara was still or around or if he still wanted me to be here. Evidently, he does. So, just leave me be about my capabilities as a dad,” he snapped, just before recoiling around Vintara defensively and listening to Atticus.
“I’ll respect your wishes. Im not a fool, but I did not abandon you. Yes, I do care. Of course I care. But you can not and you will not understand the full story until I have told it. Im not telling it all here and now,” he replied.
