Enzo saw the look Magnus had given, and something in the pit of his stomach turned. In a moment of clarity, he saw how tired and frail his mother looked. How broken and ashamed she really was. For the first time in a little while, he saw her perfectly for who she was. And, in that instant, he was filled with sadness for her.
Plastering on a big smile, Enzo stood.
[color=#7CD98A]"Well, as much fun as this little gathering is, I think I might be full up on familial bonding at the moment. Unless there are any other bombs you'd like to drop on us, I think I am overdue for a social engagement that isn't completely fucked up." [/color]
Oh maker, please let there not be any more bombs.
He paused for a moment and waited for an objection, praying all the while one would not come. This needed to be over.
