The girl spoke in a forthright manner which Reyes appreciated. It sounded as though she had been through a lot; more than what he'd gone through in his loss, but it was still a loss that they shared. Her with the death of a leader, and himself with Towhee and the family.

As she slid through the water, Reyes felt her focus shift briefly from him, but then she spoke again and he could feel her eyes on him, somehow. It your turn.

Maybe he only imagined these sensations.

I went on a trip. When I came home I went looking for my family, and I was surprised by my son. He's only a couple of months old; but he had gotten big, and I did not expect him to be so close so fast. I grabbed him — Reyes' voice clips as he feels shame which overshadows the odd bubbling in the pit of his belly that the girl has caused within him. 

It was hard, fast, and over quickly. I don't think I hurt him - but - I don't know. His shoulders tensed as he thought it over, his head hanging slightly. I didn't even realize what I was doing until after, when I was told to leave.
