Atlas woke up and looked at Damian. He couldn't stop himself from smiling. This person who has been through more than anyone wanted another baby but put his need on hold for him.
He was worried at first that Er-Ge might not be able to let him go once he is free but now he knows that he would do anything to make him happy including giving up on him.
He was so sure about all of this but right now he's the one having doubts. He can't be away from him for more than a few hours let alone forever. Furthermore isn't his decision selfish?
Er-Ge always puts him and his feelings first shouldn't he reciprocate? Atlas caressed his cheek. He doesn't want to leave him ever and now he's not sure that in the end he'll be able to walk away from him and obliterate his soul.
Damian opened his eyes and he smiled gently at him. Damian smiled back and asked:
"Are you okay?"
Atlas nodded.
"I am, I didn't think I could feel this happy before."
