Ray eventually joined Al and Eric in the living room.
He was surprised to find Al much calmer as he laughed with his cousin.
"That was your mom." Ray informed his son. "She told us not to worry, she and Andres will head home tomorrow. They are booked at a very secure hotel outside of the city. She doesn't want to push their luck tonight."
Al nodded as he let out a breath of relief. He had been worried about his mother's and brother's condition since he heard the news.
"You can go head on to bed. You still have class tomorrow and you'll be meeting the traitor in your team, if I'm not mistaken." Ray said as he gestured for his son and nephew to head to their rooms. "I'll speak to your sister."
"Dad, if you don't mind. Can I speak to Cara tonight? I want to try to fix things." Al said as he awkwardly fidgeted with his hands.
Ray gave his son a sad smile, but still nodded nonetheless.
