Their mother was the main reason why they were into this kind of thing. She was opening up to the man she thought was her husband."I can't believe mom would do this to us. Why did she do that to us?

I'm going to be a father, and as much as this is good news, I'm not excited." He began to pace around the house, while Eva watched him."You mean it's a mistake. Fill me in because I'm confused.

It wasn't my fault, and I don't know what to do." He was freaking out, and didn't know what to do.

You haven't been with a woman since your appearance." "You're right. I've not been with anyone since I returned back, but that's the problem. The only woman I was with was the one who came to me.
