108. Connection
Harry hadn't honestly expected to find what he did. He had only been searching for Teddy to see if he was hungry and wanted a snack. Instead he came across Sarek sitting with Teddy as they studied what looked like old fashioned photographs together. It certainly had stunned the wizard to watch the normally reserved Vulcan behaving almost lovingly with his new grandson. At the moment it was only the three of them in the house since Spock and Jim had gone into the city to take care of some last minute arrangements for the ceremony. So it was definitely a surprise to come across such a private moment.
"Grandpa?"
"Yes Teddy."
"What was Grandma Amanda like?"
Sarek paused before reaching out for a picture and showing it to Teddy. The young boy blinked as he stared at a pretty woman with brown hair and brown eyes; the same shade as his father's. He tilted his head before smiling when he saw the resemblance.
"Your ko'mekh-il was a strong woman," Sarek explained, "She never showed fear not even in the face of uncertainty and she never allowed those with illogical views to weaken her resolve. When she came to Vulcan, she faced much hardship due to the irrational opinions of certain groups of individuals. They believed that due to her status as human, she was in many ways inferior but this was not the case. And she disproved them time and time again."
Teddy nodded in understanding. Father had told him once about his troubles growing up, how he had been isolated because of his blood and his human mother. His grandma was strong just like his parents, fighting and unwilling to bend to others. He glanced back at the picture taking in her gentle smile and wise eyes.
"Was she smart?" he questioned.
"She was intelligent for a human and provided stimulating conversation. But I like to think she was wise as well in her understanding of the people around her."
"She looks kind like Dad and Grandma Lily," Teddy remarked as he traced the face in the photo.
Sarek nodded, "Indeed she was kind. As humans would say, she had a 'heart of gold' and never held malicious intent toward anyone. Her kindness was one of many traits that I found esthetically pleasing about Amanda."
"Grandpa?"
"Yes?"
"Do you think Grandma Amanda would have loved me?"
Sarek gazed at his new grandson who stared up at him with wide, innocent eyes. And once more he saw his wife shining through those eyes; somehow she was living through this child even though they were not blood related. Allowing only the faintest curl of his lip, the Vulcan replied, "I believe that she would have loved you dearly."
Teddy smiled, "I hope I get to meet her one day."
"Perhaps you will."
"Yeah, I'll get to see her and Grandpa George and Grandpa James and Grandma Lily too. I bet they're all watching over us now and they're wishing us happiness so we won't be sad that they're not here," Teddy chirped, his face warm with joy and purity as he believed in his own words.
Sarek nodded, wanting to believe as well. He glanced up spotting Harry standing partially hidden away, just watching them with his arms crossed over his chest. There was pride and unconditional love in those green eyes as they observed Teddy. Yes, Sarek could accept these humans into his family and his life. They carried the spirit of his precious Amanda which secretly pleased him. His son as chosen well and Sarek was grateful.
"Our son has finally found his peace Amanda and I cannot be more satisfied," he thought, "Our family is now complete."
