Esteban stood still unable to react to seeing his son again. The last time they had spent time together the sand was manipulating them to do their bidding.

"Take him inside and get him ready," Anika instructed to the servant.
She went around Esteban and faces him. Her heart was racing in her chest seeing the life in his eyes. The glow that had long been gone from him. Knowing that she was reason that he had that glow in his eyes made her happy.
She couldn't wait for him to thank her and embrace her. She had done something so great for him and the least that he could was be grateful. She pictured it all in her mind. How he would hold her in his arms and praise her to the moon and back.
