Jenson removed Baby Robbie's shackles from the bedpost, then dragged him to the floor-to-ceiling windows so he could get a better view of the sky.
The sky full of lanterns was like countless stars illuminating the children their way home.
Written on the sky lanterns were Jay and Angeline's messages.
[We'll love you forever, Baby Robbie!]
[I’m willing to trade my life in for your safety.]
[Life has a limit, but love has no end.]
[May you remain the same bright and cheerful young man when you return.]
[Baby Robbie, we're waiting for you!]
Long and short messages were written on the sky lanterns of various sizes.
The paper was too short to describe their feelings.
Baby Robbie could distinctly sense his parents' concern and longing for him.
Tears welled up in his eyes, and then, he slumped to the ground.
Jenson bent down and said softly, "You probably don't know what Daddy and Mommy have been through in the past few years. If you want to know, then I’ll tell you."
Baby Robbie nodded.
Jenson started explaining, "Back then, when Daddy learned that the Ares family had become the target of Doomsday, the world's largest and most evil organization, he silently sent us away to protect us but placed himself in danger instead.
"On the day the fight with Doomsday broke out, he burned down Tourmaline Estate because only then would he be able to destroy all traces and pieces of evidence. That way, Doomsday would never know if the Ares family was alive or dead.
