Crescent's POV:

'No Crescent, you shouldn't think like that' I thought to myself shaking my head 'I shouldn't jump to conclusions so quickly, I should get more information' I stated determinedly.

"I see that you have many doubts" my father spoked, stroking my head with a half smile "Do you want to know something in specific?" He ended up asking when he saw that that caught my attention.

My mind lit up with excitement, it was a unique opportunity to be able to ask several questions about my Mother and in a few seconds I could think of many but it was difficult for me to choose which one to start with.

'What question should I ask first?' I rambled thoughtfully while looking at my hands that were crumpling the sheets.

"H-how was your relationship with Mom?" I looked up to ask, nervous that I wouldn't get an answer this time.

"Our relationship... wasn't... Well..." Dad spoke between brief pauses "Very common... let's say..." He tried to respond clearly in which he had many difficulties expressing himself correctly.

"Common?" I asked not wanting a half answer.

"How should I explain it?..." He spoke to me scratching the back of his neck nervously "Your Mother and I were not very close in terms of a couple, I always saw him as my right hand man and as one of my best subordinates before I noticed my feelings for him..." he stated softly.

'Wait, wait... Let me analyze this well... Right hand?' I thought "Subordinate?!" I exclaimed upon realizing "Mom was your subordinate?!" I yelled in surprise.

"Yes... he was..." he stated uncomfortably "And he is..." My Father spoked causing the atmosphere to become tense.

'What does he mean?' I questioned myself. With that answer I was even more confused, I couldn't understand what sense it made for my Mother to be my Father's subordinate.

I thought that from Dad's tone of voice it was most likely that my Mother had died or something like that, but thinking about it, it was probably just a thought that my mind created to avoid delving deeper into the subject and to prevent the answer from affecting me more than I could imagine.

Despite everything, I think that knowing that my Mother is alive is a good thing but there is something that bothers me...

"W-why haven't I met him in that case?" I said, pretending to be firm with my mind in chaos.

"It's complicated to explain... I think it's still too early to tell you everything champion" he expressed with that expression that he always showed to my uncle when he mentioned my Mother "Wait to grow a little more, okay?" he spoked resting my skull on the pillow and covering my body with the blanket up to my neck "When you do it, I will answer all your questions completely..." He finished speaking by placing a kiss on my forehead and leaving the room.

I wanted to stop him, I didn't want the conversation to stop there but I also didn't want to make the atmosphere more uncomfortable than it already was.

Dad's answers caused me more doubts than I had before.

How was it possible that my Mother had been my Father's subordinate all along and he hadn't told me anything? That was the reason why, even though I insisted so much, he never let me go with him where he worked? If so, what was the reason to keep me staying away? This is very confusing.... What would be the reason why my Father would hide something so important from me?

Dad has always been good to me... and even though I don't see him all day he always looked for a way to make it up to me...

Why wouldn't Dad want me to see Mom? There must be a reasonable reason behind everything... Right?

I don't want to doubt Dad, maybe Mom made some mistake and that's why they are separated, right? But that doesn't explain why he didn't introduced him to me.

If Mom was the one who made the mistake, it wouldn't make sense for Dad to let him work for him in that case. So Dad was the one who made the mistake?

'This really leaves me very confused, I want answers now! Not when I'm older!' I started to think, somewhat upset and distressed.

No matter who it was that made the mistake, I would like to be able to see Mom, Dad doesn't seem to hate him in any way, his feelings when talking about him are always a mixture of sadness, melancholy and remorse, which makes my thoughts get confused even more.

The only reason my Father would have these kinds of feelings would be only if he did something he regretted in such a way that even those feelings are visible to me.

I always saw my Father as someone strong who did not show any weakness and who maintained a serious face most of the time, but I have come to notice that when talking about Mom his emotions get out of control and he becomes somewhat vulnerable even if he tries to hide it.

If Mom is someone who can make my Father's soul weaken in such a way...

How can I not be curious to at least discover why? And the reason why they are no longer together even though my Mother has Dad's soul completely at the tip of his hands.
