As Carl, Gillian and Tiamutael were in the bath, Tiamutael was oddly quiet.
"You alright, Buddy?" Carl asked as he leant toward him in case he wanted to whisper.
"Yeah, I'm actually really happy, but I'm just thinking..."
"What about?"
"I spoke to Mum earlier when she went to Lunelia to stretch her legs, we spoke about marriage and I don't get it still."
Carl and Gillian laughed a little.
"Tiamutael, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Want to know a secret no one ever admits?" Gillian asked in a secretive tone, earning a nod from the young man. "No one gets it. One day you fall in love and want to do something to make it feel more solid, then you spend the rest of your life hoping it doesn't disappear again."
"More solid?"
