Poseidon's fury
#7
He rolled his eyes. “Unwind at home? I had a hundred siblings and we all lived in one house. I shared my bedroom with three other boys. There was no unwinding. The only time I ever felt content was-“ he stopped. It was during his time in New Zealand learning from his Uncle, going to Uni. Studying outside on the beach, annoyed by the sea spray misting his study materials.

Those days were gone. Just like Asha’s uncle.

“I wasn’t exactly a happy kid,” he finally finished. A shrug followed by a grumble carried him to the kitchen to get a glass of water. As he tipped it to his lips, he told a story. “There was this peninsula that jutted out into the ocean. It was all rocks and miserably uncomfortable to sit on, but at the end, you could dangle your feet over the edge as the waves rolled past up toward the shore line. If you didn’t look behind you, it felt like you were in the middle of the ocean. That was—” his voice trailed uncomfortably. “It wasn’t terrible.” He took a drink. They were a long ways from that part of the world.
