Chapter 87: Meeting the Father

"What country are you from?" Megan's father gestured at the empty glass and the picture of water next to it just out of his reach.

Levx poured the water and handed him the cup. "My family moved around a lot but I was born near the West coast of Africa." Not really, he was hatched thousands of miles from Earth but humans got a bit crazy when it came to aliens and such.

"Call me, Sam. Near the coast?" Sam took a sip of the water. "You born on a boat or plane?"

His birthplace was near the Promexl Sea. "Yes. On a small boat in the ocean." Partial truth, he was hatched as his mother sailed over the water.

Sam coughed and his breathing became labored. When his color returned and his coughing subsided, he nodded for the cup of water again. "Thanks."
