" Did you talk to him about it ? "
The low voice of Conrad always had this capacity of calming everyone, maybe the choice of his words and the softness of his every move had to do in that fact too.
These habits were taken after years of working with sick people.Unfortunately, one of the sickest young adults kept banging on his door every few days and it was almost like he couldn't enjoy his retirement anymore.
Tinea was doing incessant back and forth in front of the couch.
Tinea: How could I ?! … " Hey baby, I know you're Mr.Bug, did you know I was Lucky Cat ? Anyway, I hate you, hand me that book back."
Conrad: … Do you really hate him ?
The young man stopped, sighing.
Tinea: … Of course not, I'm just mad he doesn't know consent and kiss random cat boys in the street.
Conrad: I mean, the "cat-boy" was you.
Tinea: But he doesn't know THAT.
Conrad: Don't you think you're a little too harsh on him ?
Tinea: WHAT ?!
The old man was starting to be desperate, no longer listening to the young man's frantic speech. Tinea wasn't the type to be reasonable, especially not when he was angry.
Conrad: … You should try meditation.
Tinea: … Since when are you a fan of meditation ? This isn't your style.
Conrad: You are right, this is the style of my son.
Tinea: Happy to know you have a son, only now.
Conrad: I have two, actually. Zack and Aiden. But I don't see them often, Aiden lives in Paris and Zack is always somewhere different.
The reproachful gaze of Tinea made him chuckle.
Tinea: … I can't believe you never told me I had brothers.
Conrad: Seriously, putting the dad card on me ?
Tinea: This is heartbreaking.
His blue eyes followed the young man's dramatic ways of going to take a look out of the window.
Conrad: … Talking about that, I won't be there for the next few weeks.
Tinea: WHAT !?
Conrad: I'll go to Paris, see my son and my grand-childrens.
Tinea: WHY IS THIS FAMILY SO BIG SUDDENLY ?
Silence filled the room, Conrad having given all the information he had to communicate, he simply shrugged.
For his part, Tinea didn't know what to think, he didn't feel able to face his new demons without the help of his free therapist.
Faced with the pout that started to form on the young man's face, Conrad made him a proposal that he instantly regretted.
Conrad: … Do you want to come with me maybe ?-
Tinea: YES ! YES ! PLEASE !! I can't stay alone, in Thavach, and in a room, alone, with Antony.
Conrad: … Talk about a boyfriend.
Tinea: You know how sensitive I am, this is too much for me. I need to digest the fact that the guy I love was also my partner as a superhero. That's not normal people's problems…
The young man bowed his head in defeat, before raising it to hear this question.
Conrad: … And what about that "Ghost" guy ? Didn't you see them recently, you didn't talk about that.
