"Goodbye, Sonny."

"Goodbye, Dad," Sonny replied, waving his small hand at Hank.

Hank turned and walked back to his car, apologizing to his guests for keeping them waiting before getting in and driving away quickly.

Shortly after, Zachary, Serenity, and their bodyguards got into the car that had come to pick them up.

As the car started, Serenity noticed Sonny curled up in Zachary's arms, looking downcast. She reached out and gently touched his shoulder.

"Aunt," Sonny said, reaching his arms out to her.

Serenity held him close and asked softly, "Sonny, why are you feeling sad? Did your dad say something to upset you again?"

Sometimes Serenity didn't want Sonny to spend time with Hank, who was often bitter about Liberty and Duncan's relationship and would speak poorly about Duncan in front of Sonny. But Sonny had grown close to Duncan, seeing him as a father figure. Sonny looked up and asked, "Aunt, when my mom marries Uncle Duncan, will they give me a brother or sister?"

He remembered once telling his mom that he wanted a little sister, like Avah, Titus's sister, who was adorable. Serenity was expecting a baby boy, so Sonny hoped his mom could give him a sister.

Serenity replied gently, "Do you want a brother or a sister?"

In the past, Sonny would eagerly nod and say he wanted both. This time, he hesitated.

"Aunt, if my mom has another baby, will she still love me? Will she forget about me? And what about Uncle Duncan-will he still be nice to me?"

Serenity comforted him, "Of course, Sonny. No matter how many children your mom has, she will always love you just as much. And Uncle Duncan won't change how he feels about you. You have to trust your mom's love; it won't fade, and she won't be unfair. If anything, she'll likely love you even more."

Since Sonny's father didn't live with him, it was just him and his mom. If Liberty had a second child with Duncan, that baby would have both parents at home. Serenity knew Liberty well enough to believe she wouldn't favor the second child. In fact, Liberty might become even more attentive to Sonny. Sonny looked up again and asked, "Aunt, will you still love me like you do now? Or will you only care about my little brother or sister?""

Serenity pressed her cheek against Sonny's and said warmly, "I will always love you, Sonny. Even if you have little brothers or sisters, my love for you won't change. We'll all love you just the same."

Hank's constant negative remarks in front of Sonny were clearly affecting the child, making him worry about losing his mother's affection.

Serenity seethed inwardly at Hank's behavior, but she couldn't voice her anger in front of Sonny.

Before Liberty divorced Hank, he didn't seem to care much for Sonny. He'd only play with him when he was in a good mood. When he wasn't, he'd brush off Sonny's attempts for attention. He hardly ever took the initiative to help.

For instance, when Liberty was cooking, Hank and Sonny would be in the living room. If Sonny asked for water, Hank wouldn't pour him a glass but would call Liberty from the kitchen to do it.

A complete hands-off dad.
