Raj suddenly looked serious. "Yes Daddy. I was named after him, Raj."
"Well you're going to meet Raj and my other friend Lawrence."
Raj didn't speak. He just stared at his father as if waiting for more information.
"How do you feel about that, son?"
"Okay." He said simply.
"Aren't you excited about meeting him?"
Raj didn't even think about his response. "Well you have two mothers. Mother-Mina is your first mother and Mother-Baba is second. You are my first Father." He said no more. It was obvious that he knew that Bilal's preference was for Mina above Baba.
Bilal smiled and his chest felt full. "Let's go."
They decided to meet at the Grand Canyon. It didn't look much like the one found on earth but was named the Grand Canyon because it too was a huge rocky pit.
They docked their pod and Bilal knelt on one knee beside his son. "If you feel sick I want you to let me know, okay?"
"Okay."
