He scrambled over to Elijah and tugged at his leg Dad , Moms leaving ! Moms leaving , arent you going to stop her ? Why arent you chasing her ? Elijah stayed silent , his gaze frozen . Bobby climbed onto Elijahs lap and lightly touched his fathers face with his tiny hand . Dad , go after her ! Please ! It was only then that Elijah seemed to register the situation . He reached out , but his fingers brushed against mething wet on his face . He touched his face , staring at the moisture on his fingertips in disbelief . What was this ? Freya was in high spirits .
