“Yes, I’m fine. What was that call?”
Pablo brushed his thumb across a tear that had fallen to Sebastian’s cheek. “Just an update on a case. Nothing to worry about.” He pulled back and dropped a brief kiss on the end of Sebastian’s nose and then he glanced at Hector. “Everything good?”
“It’s great.” Hector looked toward the animal signs. “Shall we move on to the tigers?”
“Definitely.” Sebastian didn’t protest at all when Pablo grabbed his hand.

Pablo waited for Sebastian to take a shower after their day at the zoo before he cornered Mama to talk to her. Hector had disappeared to call a girl he was seeing up north, so Pablo decided it would be the perfect time to talk to Mama about Sebastian.
He figured Sebastian had a stressful day or couple of days really, what with coming out to him and Hector. Mama would take it well, but if he could ease things a bit for Sebastian then he would.
