Armaan wasn’t super thrilled to know Freddie hadn’t even considered if he would want those pushes or not. But the truth was, that he had needed them. And he was so grateful for how amazing freddie had been through that entire nightmare of a situation. So while he didn’t love hearing that, he could forgive it. Especially since Freddie was apologising now. “It’s okay,” Armaan said, reaching out for Freddie’s knee, so he could pat it. “From now on, we can talk about it. I reckon it’s so easy to know what to do when you’re thousands of years old. I just might need a little help seeing what you do. If that makes sense.” He smiled a little wavery, over at Freddie.
“What did you want to know about Varaha? I don’t know much, if I’m honest. When I said he left both of us when I was two was true. I haven’t seen or heard from him since.”
