"Why? I thought you loved your mom"
Tilting my head, I throw a query. Come to think of it, I have never known why Nesta did not like her own son. There is no parent who does not love own child, is there? If it is true that Nesta neglected Leo only because of Leysa, shouldn't she at least hold an ounce of guilt for son?
"I admire her but I don't think I will be sad if she disappears. So, you can say I don't love her" Leo's eyes lift to lock with mine. There really is no hint of lie laying under that gaze. He is saying his true feelings. This is bad. A kid being neglected while still young does no good for real.
"That's unexpected" I mumble. "It is not for me. I mean, it was her who never cared about me. Dad said it's okay to feel disappointed in mom because she's wrong" Chewing, Leo asserts. Hushing me down. Damian Talon, do you have to influence the kid badly like that?
