"I wish we didn't have to tell him, I do. I wish I could some how make him biologically yours, as impossible as that is. I wish Evan would disappear. All wishes that won't come true," Lavender breathed out. "But you're right... you choosing Truth, is even more special then as if he was yours. You don't have to love him. You want to. Loving and raising another man's child, takes so much more. You're amazing," she smiled warmly, her eyes tearing up after. It was a very emotional subject for her and she still sometimes had a hard time believing how good he was to her son.
She understood what Malachi was saying, but something in her still thought Evan was nuts. Maybe she didn't see it before when they were dating, but she could certainly see it now. "Okay. I'm being paranoid. I have so much time to stress about this anyways," she smiled, teasing him a little. "I should just let him grow up and be a kid."
