"Father…"
The man standing there had short black hair and deep blue eyes. He didn't look older than 35 and had a roguish and rugged aura around him that was similar to yet contrasted with Damien's own aura.
Damien closed his eyes and massaged his forehead before opening them back up to check whether or not he was hallucinating.
Unfortunately, that man was still standing there when he checked the third, fourth, and even fifth time.
"Yeah, I'm not dealing with this today."
Damien turned around and began walking without turning back.
"Wait, wait! What is this reaction?!"
The man materialized in Damien's path and waved his hands in a panic.
Damien rolled his eyes. "And? What type of reaction were you expecting?"
"Uhm, I don't know, maybe some shock or something? Where's the whole, 'oh my god that's really my father!' moment?"
Damien stared at the man with a dead fish gaze.
Was this really the father he knew?
