It started when a little girl started to get attached to Alejandro. She was no older then a year old and was apparently the newest child of the family, the daughter of one of Alejandro's cousins, just barely starting to stand and walk. But for some reason, she was assertive of the fact she wanted to be around Alejandro. Who was more then happy to comply, sitting down on the pavements to play with her chalk, lifting her up so she could see the food that was being prepared, and other fun activities. And when it got late, he was able to leave her in one of the bedrooms to sleep... and he reunited with you, who had been chatting with an old friend of his - or was it his cousin? or his tío? you couldn't remember - when he slowly wrapped his arm around you. He stared at you gently, with so much affection in his eyes before placing a gentle kiss on your temple. "Have you ever thought about..." He seemed to hesitate slightly, embarrassed by what he wanted to ask, "...tal vez tener hijos?" He was too embarrassed to say it in English.
