Chapter 7
The Conversation
I knocked on the door softly, and I heard the crying stop.
"Yes? Do you need anything, Fox?" I was surprised at how Wolf could disguise his voice so it wouldn't sound like he had just finished a sob story.
"Can I speak with you for a second?" I questioned, hoping that he would let me in.
"Y-Yes, just hold on for a second." Wolf finished. I think he was washing his face so it would look like nothing had happened, but he probably knew that I would hear him. The door opened and I walked in.
"What did you need to tell me, Wolf? I would really like to know." I started.
"Okay, I think this is a good time to tell you." Wolf replied.
"I needed to tell you that before you were born, I was very good friends with your parents. They told me that if they ever died, I...I would…I would…" His voice trailed off. "You would what? Finish the sentence!" I demanded. Wolf chuckled, and he ruffled my fur.
"I…I would take care of you. But when they were captured, I didn't know that you were an orphan. One day I came to visit your parents, but when I arrived, you and they were gone. I remembered you so well, when you were little. When I saw you at the laboratory, my heart's being was alive again. I didn't want to tell you until now after you got to know me. I'm now your father." Wolf finished.
I was baffled. He was my new father? My new dad? Wolf, my dad? Wolf did something unexpected.
He wrapped his arms around me and hugged me. I was so happy, I hugged him back. I wasn't a loner, and neither was Wolf. Now I had a family.
