Shine Bright Like a Diamond

Ears perked at the sound of small footsteps in the snow and his crimson gaze drifted downward to find Lumi approach with a greeting. "Hello dear," He greeted in return, leaning down to gently nuzzle his big head against her smaller one. There were many things in his life he was grateful for, and at the top of his list were his children. His ears fell back slightly when she asked if he could help her find Heloise, a quiet sigh slipping past his lips. It had been a few days since she left to find their missing son...and he hadn't said anything to them because he thought she'd be back by now.

He decided then, to tell her. The titan male got down to her level and looked her in the eye, "Lumi, there's something I need to tell you and you're the first to know," He told her gently. Taking a deep breath, he thought about how to proceed. "Your mother...she's gone out to look for your brother. I don't know when she'll be back, but it shouldn't be much longer." He hoped, anyway. He didn't want his kids to worry, but how could he hide his own worry from them? Heloise had become a big part of his life so fast...he just hoped she would be back soon.
