The Tides
"If you don't reply my messages, I will deal with you when I come back." Nathan said.
He then bent to ruffle Ren's cheeks and kiss him multiple times. "Ren, you must remember to text me every day. I will bring you loads of presents. If anyone bullies you, call me at once."
Ren nodded as he returned Nathan's hug. Among everyone gathered here, Ren was incredibly close to Nathan.
When Lyle had proposed that Ren should be given a phone, it was to make Raizel and Ren closer.
It succeeded a bit, whenever Raizel would send little Ren a text message. He would be over the moon and yet no matter how much the child was prompted, he would never take the initiative to send Raizel a message.
As for Nathan, both of them chatted every day. They would be in the same room yet they would use the phone to communicate giggling with each other. It was cute.
Now Nathan was leaving and that would probably not happen in a while.
