This encounter was complicated, he gathered that much, but how exactly it was complicated and how things were being said without being said was beyond him. He couldn't subtly work a conversation in his favor if he tried. All he knew was that the lady was serious and his dad was using his Alpha Voice and they were both really cool. In silence he soaked it up like a sponge. One day he wanted to be just like them. He wanted to sit up tall and all regal-like, and fearlessly look leaders in the eye. He wanted to be chill in situations like this one.
