There was a slight disbelief in Gavriel's smile. He already knew that his real parents were in this realm. He had already mentally prepared himself that he was going to meet them this time when he came through the portal. But what he did not expect was, reuniting with a parent for the first time would actually feel like this.
Gavriel's eyes looked behind his father as though looking for another person and Belial spoke as he saw his son's wondering eyes.
"Your mother is not here at the moment. Ah… she's going to get jealous of me again that I met up with you first before her." Belial chuckled but his eyes contained traces of becoming quite emotional as well. "Your mother would be crying right now if she were to be here. She's been longing for you ever since you left many years ago." King Belial's voice softened at the end.
Gavriel looked like he did not know what to say so Belial patted his son's shoulder again in a reassuring move.
