Why did Enlil and pop trust Damien and not his other siblings with my elements? Perhaps Ace convinced them to allow Damien on board judging from the compliments Ace were throwing to her each time they talked about their childhood. So the equation between Damien, Ace and Enlil went deeper than I thought.
Whatever they shared was thick. Enlil and Damien behaved like long lost friends. The way they exchanged stories over a second lunch, the little glances they threw at her as if making sure she is still there beside them. Were they hiding something more from her?
`Enlil, I…ar...are you guys keeping something away from me?', Astrid looked on curiously.
`What would that be, kiddo?', Enlil crossed his fingers, placing then above his empty plate.
`Just a hunch', Astrid shrugged.
`Not to worry, it does not involve you', Damien waved her away like a fly, burning her short fuse of impatience.
