He would continue to trail after the scent that had suddenly overwhelmed him, drawn toward it as though he was being pulled by an some kind of invisible force. It only took a moment for his gaze to find his sister and settle on her, his pace slackening until he came to a halt. It was then that everything changed. He had spent so long trying to be okay, pushing all thoughts of his mother and his sisters out of his head -- and here was Misty, standing right before him. A whimper left his lips, his chest sinking, the weight of her sudden arrival heavy on his chest. He felt very much like he was being crushed right there under the weight of the realization that she wasn't dead, that he had to face her and he had to remember that he'd been utterly abandoned as a child. "Hi.... Misty..." the man's voice quivered. Though he was now two years old, even his voice had not taken on the characteristic deepness that usually accompanied adulthood. His voice quivered as he dared take a few small steps forward. "Mom left me... alone..." The words came in a painful gasp, the tightness in his chest only worsening as he felt tears welling in his eyes. He'd been scared and confused and his abandonment had shaped him into who he was now; and his entire world was suddenly shaken by Misty's return. Another whimper fell from his lips as he gazed at her, confused as to how he ought to feel, only feeling raw pain as the tears began to roll down his chest. |
