Aegon watched the family drama in silence, because it was his own family. On his birthday, he had heard his father's voice, but this was the first time he actually saw him.
The man was impressive to say the least, but all Aegon saw was a dejected, exhausted man who seemed to be on the verge of dying, yet was persevering for some reason.
It was the look of a man on the verge of breaking apart.
Growing up, Aegon rarely had the time or the mood to think about his parents. Xiu made sure he never felt the need for parents, but he would be lying if he said he didn't want them.
In his past life, he often dreamt of the things he wanted, an idle dream that fulfilled all his desires, and it included having a full, loving family.
Including parents.
That dream had always existed in his mind, but things became complicated when he was reborn in this world. He didn't know what his parents had done, but apparently they had abandoned him.
