A glimpse of the past

“Caddel! Our old buddies.” A man between his 50s, almost bald from the front excitedly exclaimed as he opened his arms wide open for a hug from his old pal, standing right before him.

“Took you so long, Atlas.” The other man answered, walking straight into his arms and engulfing him in a hug.

“We couldn’t take the shortcut. A pack from the Appalachians was staying in the way. We didn’t want to trespass and be a threat to them.” Atlas replied as he parted.

“Well, words are going around that a peace pact is in its making.” The other man spoke.

“Yeah, heard about it. Not sure if it’s true. But we all need some peace in our lives, don’t we, Aziel?” Atlas spoke as the two buddies walked side to side towards the house.

“I’m down for some peace man. Since my son has finally found his mate, I want him to start his family in harmony.” Aziel sighed sitting on the couch after Atlas.

“He found his mate? When? Who?” Atlas frowned.
