“Mom,” Egan made wide eyes and swallowed nervously, tugging on her sleeve, “you’re making them angry.”

“Does it frighten you to see them angry?” she asked bluntly.

He nodded.

“Then they need to learn to control their anger because the last thing you should be, is afraid of them. Their role is to keep you safe. Dads and uncles keep their family safe and if they are making you fear them and fear their tempers, then it is not safety you are feeling in their presence.” She cupped his cheeks and pressed a kiss to his forehead, “but I want you to know, no matter what they will do, what any of them will do, you don’t need to be scared of them.”

“I don’t?”

“No. Do you know why?”

“Because you’ll keep me safe,” his voice was tiny. “Even if they are so big?”

“Is Spiderman bigger than the people he has to fight?”

“No but he has webs.”

“I might not have webs, but I have lots of other skills. See when I was given the gift of you, while you grew in my belly, one of the things I also grew was in my heart,” he took his little hand and held it to her chest, “do you feel it?”

He nodded and gave her a shy smile, “it’s beating very fast,

Mom.”

“It is. When God put you in my belly, when he blessed me to be your mom, he gave me a strong heart because he knew you were going to need a mom who could be there for you, even when things get really hard. I will never stop fighting to keep you with me, Egan. Not ever. Even if you get angry with

me, like you did last night, even if someone else tries to take you from me,” she shot Kiefer an annoyed look, “or even if bad people try to come between us or hurt us, I will fight to be with you until this,” she pressed his hand against her heart, “stops beating. Do you know why?”

“Because you love me.”

“Because I love you more than anyone else alive on this planet.”

“I love you too, Mom. I’m sad Auntie Astra got scared and left. You would have kept her safe too.”

“Astra is a grown up and she has to make her own decisions.”

/can’t believe she left us though Mom.”

“I’m going to miss her an awful lot but just like we’re starting a new adventure, she’s going to go on her new adventure.”

“Okay.”

“Do you have other questions?”

“Yes.” He swung his foot nervously.

“What do you want to know?”

“When my dad and Uncle Tadgh aren’t wearing different coats, how do you tell them apart?”

“Oh, that’s easy,” she made wide eyes as the two men snorted. “They think they look identical but they’re not.”

“They’re not?”

“Nope. Look at your dad’s nose. There is a freckle close to the bridge of his nose which Tadgh doesn’t have and,” she mock-whispered, “Uncle Tadgh’s beard is a little bit darker red than your father’s. Also, you have to get pretty close to notice but Uncle Tadgh’s blue eyes, in his left one, there is a little black dot near his iris which your dad doesn’t have.”

“Wow, you notice all those things?” Egan was surprised.
