[@TalijaKey] Abel studies him and tults his head. "A year huh?" He gently squeezes manu's hand. "If you need help with anything...I'm here" he gives a gentle smile and they continue walking. His thoughts go back to Jose...most likely the one who turned Manu...also the one Manu favors. He shoves the thoughts aside. He wants to make memories and he can't make happy ones if he keeps going there in his thoughts. "So...how long are you visiting here?" The main part being how long does he have to be with Manu. That is until he buys a plane ticket and flow him because sometimes he's stubborn. He doesn't mention that idea though. Maybe he could convince him to stay...or maybe they could both go to Texas. That's a nice thought....all the open space...it would be really nice.
