Yorath's eyes softened as he listened to Val express her concern. " I am fine, sometimes I just need to learn to take things easy and thank you for the invitation. That would be nice to cool down from this really hot weather." He slowly got up from his spot and followed Val to the spot she indicated which was closer to the water. " Care to join me?" He saw her hestiate, an internal struggle on her face, before she sat next to him.

Yorath knew from that moment that they had a connection, wheither it was lust or something else who knew. Something was about to change his life in a small or large way in the future. What he didnt know that he was about to find out was how fatherhood really felt like.
