We Were Born Sick {Tinaro}

It wasn't comforting knowing that their father died by the rapids, since he was trying to forget the subject overall. How his brother knew that fact he didn't know and he couldn't be more bothered to find out. The pup couldn't recall their mother telling them that and he assumed she wouldn't want to anyway. Perhaps Alvin had a connection with their deceased father, a connection he wished he could have with Esperanza.

"Oh." Was all he would say quite gloomily. The urge to unleash his annoyance and demand the reason of bringing that topic up was uncomfortably held. It wasn't like his brother read his mind and decided to pick on him. The statement was probably coincidental.

"You aren't too sad, are you? Y'know, now that mama's gone." His query would be spoken with concern. Alvin didn't seem to be upset or distraught, although he wanted to be certain.
