Keeper of The Lost Cities: Kam's beginning

Chapter 12: Tam

Since Keefe had told Bianca and Fitz's parents, Tam told Grady and Edaline, who then told Kesler and Juline on their Imparter. Grady didn't blow his top, like Tam had thought he would. But he was still mad, though. Tam knew because, whenever he looked out the window in the kitchen, he could see Grady standing under the Panakes, which was Sophie's favorite tree. "You two sit back, we'll take this to the Council and figure everything out. And we'll get them all back." Edaline said, smiling as she offered the boys Butterblasts and Ripplefluffs. But they both declined. That's how Tam knew something was very wrong with Keefe, but he didn't want to say anything, for fear of actually listening to Keefe. Out of everyone in this house, he'd rather talk to Edaline, though her kind nature and cheery attitude could be...overwhelming for him. "We really need to go, if you'll excuse us." He spoke, hoping to get out of there, but Edaline rested a hand on his shoulder, and said, "Actually, I...need to speak with Keefe for a minute. Are you ok to wait outside?" The physical contact made him flench, since he did NOT like being touched, but he nodded, and waited outside, kinda shocked when Greyfell just touched-down from the sky, along with the rest of the Alicorn family. The twins, now up to his knees in height, nudged their heads against him. He eventually caved in and gave all four of them some kind of affection. TAM! Silveny transmitted, with a few HI! TAM! HI! From Wynn and Luna. It was nice to hear his name said with excitement and joy, for once. But, out of them all, he liked Greyfell the most, as the guy was pretty chill. He wondered what Keefe and Edaline were talking about. I hope she didn't notice the bruises...
