Jarek nodded in understanding, liking the idea, though worry for when the time came to reveal the truth was present. "Okay. You got it, sweetheart. I assume you want to do it now?" he ran a hand through his hair absently, glancing at the door Cayle and Leyko had vanished behind just a few minutes ago. He would have to get Liam to leave. His brother was not unintelligent, but sometimes it took him a little while to get really complex stuff, and it would be just like him to blurt out "No you're not," when Jarek told both Cayle and Leyko he was their father.
Markus sat in a ball with a wall to his back, his knees drawn up to his chest and his head resting on them. He was singing something to himself over and over again, though Rihanna couldn't tell what it was.
"Markus? Hey. I don't think we ever met," she stated, determined to be nice to the small teenager despite her bad feeling about him. He looked up at her with curious eyes and she forced herself to smile.
"I know who you are. Rihanna. His sister," Markus replied indifferently, coming to a stand rather awkwardly and tilting to one side slightly. "Why did you come looking for me?" he asked, cocking his head to one side at her, causing his whole body to tilt even more.
Rihanna had to resist the urge to chuckle at how much he was reminding her of Rue right now. "I was just wondering where you'd gotten to. We should stick together in this city," she pointed out. After staring at her for what felt like hours Markus nodded, and the two began the journey back to the apartment.
