Coddle but not Baby
Leonel didn't say anything more for a long while. It wasn't until his two children started squirming around in his arms and play-fighting that he snapped back to reality.
The two of them seemed all too comfortable to duke it out in his arms. Seeing them using his head like it was some sort of fortress to hide behind while they launched their attacks left him with a smile on his face.
On the one hand, his uncle's actions today had reminded him that this thing was far from over. But on the other hand…
He felt that even in the gloominess, he could still find his happiness at the same time.
He could only hope that his uncle would find his.
"Look at you two. I'm glad you can be happy now, but what was that? Is that what I taught you about fighting an enemy that is too powerful for you?" Leonel started to scold.
The twins snapped out of their play session and ducked their heads, trying to use their father to hide away from their father.
