The catching-up session was shorter than Khan had predicted but no less tiring. Apparently, the fact that Wayne would act as Khan's child's protector had never been in doubt, so the rest of the conversation lingered around relatively superficial topics.
That was until Khan sensed something through the mental connection and peeking past the cargo area's entrance revealed the approaching Deni. It seemed Liiza and Zalpa were done with him, so it was Khan's turn now.
"[Khan, may I have a chat with you]?" Deni asked, his kind smile still plastered on his face.
"[Of course]," Khan replied with a similar smile, but his glowing eyes slowly fell on the excited figure at his side, who showed no signs of moving.
"[Wayne, I need to talk with my wife's father]," Khan mentioned, hoping Wayne would understand that social cue. Sadly, he still had work to do in that subject.
"[I understand]!" Wayne laughed but still didn't move.
