“…remember when Korkie called you buir…?” Satine asked.
He looked at her with a smile and nodded, remembering perfectly. “...I couldn't forget.”
“I only wish he could have continued to do so,” she smiled.
“Call me buir?” Fenn raised an eyebrow.
“Yes,” she replied sadly, “I just… wanted so bad for him to have that comfort…”
“You know I never forbade him to do that. I wouldn't mind if he still called me buir,” he smiled.
“He always thought you were his buir,” she smiled back, “uncle didn’t make sense to him when he was so young.” She paused, “…I always discouraged him from referring to me as his mother… I always wondered if that was a mistake… I wanted… so bad to be ‘mommy’…”
“You are his mother, it doesn't matter if you gave birth to him or not, he is your son and always will be,” he told her. “If he wants to call you that, let him, just like I let Kala,” he smiled. “And Korkie... he is like a son to me, I love him like my own son.”
“I was just… trying to protect him… what would they say if they knew I had the jetti’s son… auntie kept him safe… kept speculation away…” she sighed.
“I know, I understand,” he said quietly. “But... maybe it's time for him to know the truth?”
She sighed again, “… what if he hates me… for it…”
“He won't,” he assured her, pulling her close to hug her.
She rested her head against his chest, “he’s going to think you’re his father… you were there for everything.”
“I was like his... adoptive father, he'll understand,” he told her. “He's a smart kid.”
“He… looks like his father… doesn’t he…”
