"You make a point..." he rubbed his scruffy chin as he put all that into perspective. It wouldn't have changed what he did then, but when applied to his now granddaughter, he didn't want her doing the same. "I guess I just had high hopes. Seems fate proved me right?" It was a stretch, a BIG stretch.
The whole baby thing though threw him completely off guard. Like he should have been told a million years ago. He was kind of insulted but wasn't like he ran into her again (except maybe when he decided to swoop in and steal her sister---but by then the burn had healed over for her). "I never thought you were pregnant." She had kind of blown his mind, though it wouldn't have changed his mind had she told him then.
