「Later that evening.」
Aaron Sinclair returned.
"Mom, I'm home."
"Mother!"
"Mother, where are you?"
The first thing he did upon returning was look for his dear mother.
Javier Sinclair stood not far away, watching him dart all over the place before finally reaching out and grabbing him by the collar.
"Are you blind to my existence? You come home and immediately start looking for your mother."
Aaron Sinclair stopped in his tracks.
"Dad, I saw you. But where's Mother? I don't see her anywhere."
Javier Sinclair: "..."
'Am I not a person?'
A sudden thought occurred to Aaron Sinclair, and he nudged his father's arm with his elbow. "Heh heh, Dad, you aren't jealous, are you? Because I didn't call for you first."
Javier Sinclair sneered. "Do I look like I would be?"
Aaron Sinclair retorted, "As if I don't know you. Dad, your mouth is the toughest thing about you."
"Heh! I see your wings have grown in. Getting ready to fly the coop, are we?"
