"Do they go zoom?" he giggled.

Tadaaki smiled. “They do flutter around a lot and are hard to catch when they get out of their cage.”

He grinned. "That's funny. I wish I had a pet bird!"

“They’re very, very messy,” Tadaaki warned. “…but very cute. I enjoyed them quite a bit.”

“…I don’t know,” Tadaaki admitted quietly, sobering. “I haven’t been there in six years… I hope so, though. They made my wife very, very happy. And she deserves that.”

"I hope they're still there too! They sound like fun. Do you have any kids?"

“… a daughter,” Tadaaki said, inclining his head. He hoped she was bringing Aashi unfettered joy, too. Tasia was the most perfectly little girl in the history of the world; he didn’t have to see her to know it. And he was absolutely certain Aashi was the best mother. She was as excited about their new daughter as he was. And he was very, very proud of her. Even now.

"What's she like? How old is she? Do you think she'd like me and Marcella?"
"I think it's bedtime now," Sara said, rising. "You can ask then more questions tomorrow, dear."

“She’s six,” Tadaaki said, blushing a bit. “So I don’t know what she’s like. But I’m sure she’s perfect. And I’m sure she’d love both of you and consider it an honor if you wanted to play with her.”

"How not know--" Sara scooped him up and Marcella as well, carrying them toward the door.
"That's enough interrogation for one night," she told them. "I'm sorry about these two, Ky and Tadaaki."

“Not at all!” Tadaaki said, forcing a little smile. It wasn’t the child’s fault. How was he to know he was poking a sore spot? He was just curious. And they were reasonable questions that Tadaaki would be happy to answer if he knew how to. If he got to be with his family.

"Bye Mr. Tadaaki!" Mattathias waved to him from under his mother's arm.

“Bye!” Tadaaki gave an awkward wave back.

You must never give into despair. Allow yourself to slip down that road, and you surrender to your lowest instincts. In the darkest times, hope is something you give yourself. That is the meaning of inner strength.
