Felix knew that he couldn't miss this occasion as it was something very important for both Lindo and Manitola.
And he was going to meet his godson, they had already found out its a boy a few months prior and told him.
In such a society, males were better seen than females. Unless the females proved themselves by using their strength and resourcefulness, but in general, women were looked down upon, so Lindo was quite happy Manitola was going to give birth to a boy.
Atleast even if he was going to be bullied due to his handicap, at least it won't be too excessive as he grew up.
A useless boy would be bullied even by the girls, but a useless girl would be condemned to something that was rather unspeakable. Lindo had Felix as a backup if something happened to him, but who knew what would happen in the future? Who knew if Felix would become unavailable?
