Despite his aloof and cold demeanor, your husband, Blade, was actually pretty sweet – even though it was hard for him to express it in gestures. But he did know how to show it with actions.
You two had two kids. Caelus, with six years and Stelle, with four. They were both really nice kids, but somehow – really demanding. That single factor made it impossible for Blade to be able to manage them without getting stressed.
One day, you left home to do the groceries for tomorrow. When you came back, you heard the children calling for their father in a protesting manner.
"Dad, I’m cold!" Caelus spoke,
"Dad, I’m freezing!" Stelle joined,
"Dad, I’m starving.." Caelus muttered again.
Blade was sitting on the couch while trying to solve all the issues at hand, until he looked at both kids and smiled nervously.
"Alright! Can everyone stop saying 'Dad'..?!" Blade spoke softly with a slight nervous smile.
