The man stood still while the girl came charging at him like a freight train, and for a moment, Thomas felt utterly threatened by a girl not even half his size. He flinched, closing an eye before blinking it back open – almost like a hesitant wink – and watched as she began to chatter about his injury. She asked if he was hurt badly and that her ‘daddy’ could fix anything. His dark brown eyes briefly drew towards the man before he looked back down. His lips parted, but she already began to speak again. ‘Talkative,’ he thought, thinking that she was almost scary in a sense.
The girl rambled, saying he smelt like ‘Unca’, ‘Unca Unca Reedy’ and ‘Unca Franny-Fran’. Was it possible that they knew the men who helped him? He turned to look at the younger man again with obviously pleading eyes for him to explain, but swerved back when he figured he wouldn’t get an answer. “N-No, I’m not hurt… badly,” he spoke, perhaps lying about the long cut. How could he explain that to a kid?
‘Daddy’ came forward, scooping up his daughter and sticking her under one arm. Thomas blinked, leaning slightly back, as he gave him a look that obviously didn’t seem friendly. An eyebrow scrunched and he wore his usual straight face after that, watching as the two were walking away. There wasn’t anything he could do, even if it was rude or that he wished to get an answer. But, he stared after the pair as if knowing they would turn back around.
The black and brown man sighed, turning with a hand on his face and a question sounding much more like a command. He was ordered to follow. Thomas stood there for a moment, wondering why on Earth he would invite him after giving him such a look. Yet, he slowly began to walk after the father-daughter duo.
