"I'll skip breakfast. Make sure you and Kate eat something," Gabriel said, standing up from his seat.
"Is it because Amelie's not feeling well?" Casaio asked, studying his brother's face.
Gabriel gave a small nod. "Hmm."
"Thank you for talking with me," Casaio added sincerely. "I think I finally have some clarity on what I need to do."
Gabriel offered a brief, approving glance. "Good."
There was a pause before Casaio suddenly spoke again. "Hey… do you want to go on a run later? It's been ages since our wolves ran together, last time was when we were kids." His tone carried a faint wistfulness. "Kate is with Amelie now, so I know you can spare me a little time."
"I went for a run this morning," Gabriel replied with a hint of a smile. "But… how about tomorrow?"
"Sounds good to me," Casaio agreed with a nod.
Gabriel turned on his heels to head upstairs, but then paused mid-step. He glanced back at Casaio.
