Rob was surprised when Valentin mentioned hoping for love. He'd still had in his mind the brief talk he'd had with Valentin about Rob's kind. Love, other than a familial kind of love, was rare for a giant, as nowadays they were fairly rare themselves. Rob was mulling these thoughts over to himself, but a definite look of sadness came over his features.
He snapped out of it when Travis hugged his leg. "Yeah. My mom loves me, an' my dad love me, An' Rob loves me too. An' I love them!" Rob smiled down at him, but the sadness was still in his eyes. "Yeah, that's right, kiddo." Not looking over at Valentin, he added, "I'm sure you're well-loved already, Little Peg. You seem to be a pretty popular guy around here." At least with his own house.
