Jade was clearly surprised that the other could read her lips, no one had really been able to. No one had really tried. Jade shook her head, as if to say, don't be sorry. She didn't view it as hard, though she was at times confused by it, everyone else she met had a voice all their own. Jade didn't know how to take the brave comment, she just blinked and then nodded, her small smile back. At the final question she tilted her head, no Xiang wasn't her father... Jade shook her head, her wide ears flapped against each other, then her mouth worked but didn't form a word, she gave up and shrugged then, not having a word to call him, she didn't view him as a dad, Xi had kids, who were all big, she'd met one of the three, but only briefly.
