"Yes, Stephen, I'm certain about my aunt and uncle! I mean, Aunt Kinjala is far too busy taking care of my father to bother with the current events..." How strange that 'Aunt Kinjala' business sounded to his ears -- not the name, but the title in front of it. He doubted that his uncle's wife was any older than he was himself, and really, given how late Frederick had started his family, it was... quite an age gap, indeed! Even if the uncle was some-- fifteen years younger, he believed. What a perverted old bastard he was, really, to take a wife barely as old as his nephew!
"But... if you feel you must go... then I suppose you must...!" he added wistfully, watching Stephen walk towards the back door.
