An hour passed when a knock resounded at the door.
Neban grew tense as his mind told him to take Theo and bolt because it could be a specific person at the door, changing their mind once again and taking his son from him.
He needed Theo; he did not want to lose his son no matter what.
But he stays seated, holding Theo a bit tighter, the boy not minding, as Isona stood up and opened the door.
When he heard Wey's voice before the man came into view, Neban relaxed the tension in his muscles, but it did nothing to get rid of the surrounding tense atmosphere he was unconsciously creating.
Wey walked into the living area, telling Neban and Theo 'hey.' Theo replied with enthusiasm while Neban nodded in acknowledgment before sticking back to his son.
Wey and Isona looked at each other like they were, once again, communicating with their eyes. But they did not say anything out loud about Neban's behavior as they sat on either side of him.
