After that particular afternoon, Silveria began noticing things she had somehow missed entirely before.
The way he always quietly made certain Rosa's daughter received her scholarship renewal properly processed each year, without anyone ever having to ask him twice about it. The way Benson mentioned, almost entirely in passing one afternoon, that Damien had personally paid for a groundskeeper's surgery two full years earlier and had simply told everyone involved it was covered by standard company insurance.
"He does this quite often, doesn't he," she said to Rosa one quiet afternoon, unable to keep the observation properly to herself any longer.
Rosa smiled warmly, like she'd been patiently waiting for Silveria to finally notice on her own. "He's always been exactly like this, dear. Ever since he was quite young. His mother used to say he had far too big of a heart for someone who tried so desperately hard to keep it properly hidden away from view."
