Summary:
“Just admit that you’re enjoying this- seeing me at my lowest. It’d save us both a lot of time.” Hera directed his attention to the floor again. Genda tried not to view him as a petulant child but instead the hurt kid that he was.
He clenched his fists in frustration. “Alright, listen up. If you assume that I’m the type to hold a grudge, you’re correct. But if you assume that I’d let that grudge get in the way of me being a decent person, you’re not as intelligent as I thought.” Hera didn’t respond, so he continued. “Feeling sorry for yourself isn’t gonna get us anywhere.”
“So I’m supposed to pretend that my mother walking back into my life unannounced isn’t fucking scary?” he asked, tightening the grip around his legs like he was trying to claw out of his skin.
“Well, I don’t know,” Genda responded, somewhat breathless. “Just what happened back there?”
Or, Hera’s past comes rearing its ugly head and he tries not to let it break him.
