Anton nodded, and smiled a wistful smile thinking of his family. "Very brave," Anton said. "Both my parents are - they're good people. They've taught me a lot..."
He frowned slightly. "I just worry how they'll eat without my father's salary - everything is so expensive now at home with the war. I want to start sending money back for them, but I worry - would that be insulting to my father? Do you think he'll understand that I want to help, and that I'm not saying he cannot support his family?"
