Jason's statement set off alarm bells in Aoni's head as his ears began ringing.
"For now, don't speak, just listen," Seeing that his youngest son was about to rattle off questions, even though he seemed a bit shell-shocked, Jason began regaling the story of his past.
"I know there have been a lot of questions on your end, well, all of you have asked at some point, about your grandparents, Aunts, uncles, and so on, and for a while, I suppose a simple, they live far away, or your Mom and I are only children could have sufficed, but when it comes to lying, I was never really good at it."
"For starters, as far as I know, in either the Thurston or Asterson…your Mother's Maiden name, we are all that remains. On my side, I had two brothers and only a mother. My father died in Genovia when I was only 8 years old, and my mother left the world about 15 years ago due to health complications."
