Leo meets Jacob

( Leo's POV )

"Are you sure you don't want to come with me to meet my mother? I think she would be thrilled to meet you, master–" Leo said, as he tried to convince Ben to come meet his mother.

"Nah, boy, you should go on your own. You're meeting her after a long time, so you should spend those precious first moments in solitude.

I'll meet her next time. Afterall we are here for two more days" Ben said, as he very considerately decided to not impose himself between a mother-son reunion.

"Are you sure master? What will you even do alone in this unknown city?" Leo said, as Ben shrugged his shoulders and pointed at the scenery around.

"I'll loiter around and explore, what else?" Ben said, as he patted Leo on the head and headed off in a different direction to where Leo was going.
