He patted on Malorn to calm him down. "there's my mother, and I think she's got some warm welcome to show you. Believe me, my mother's the true ruler of our house and with her here, we wouldn't be able to get out even if we want." As he matched eyes with Martha, the slight nod she gave him confirmed his guess. "malron, I am so sorry for making you this stressed out. Please don't cry, you are breaking my heart. I am the one to be blamed here, I should have at least communicated with my father first... I am so sorry." He said as he rocked Malorn slightly, watching his mother approached them.
