Adien's eyes were quite big as he examined the man in front of them. In fact he was so surprised - and curious - that he nearly forgot being angry at mum and the other man - Cass - for making him live here.
'Mum have red hair too,' Aiden said, though he couldn't match brothers and a sister. He didn't have either. 'But hers is darker, and she doesn't have freckles though Nana said she used to when she was little but not as much as me.'
Something bothered him though, and he frowned as he looked from Percy to Cass then back again. 'If he is my dad, why do I look more like you?' he asked, tilting his head again, though the thought was gone almost as soon as it was there when Percy mentioned the dog.
'You have two pets??' he asked wideeyed. 'Nana didn't even let me have one! She only had this boring old owl that was no fun at all. It bit me once.'
