With both a disapproving look from his father and the clear silent treatment from Anita, it felt to Cain that he had a target on his chest. His ears remained pinned to his scalp and his tail curled protectively around his leg.
“What?” His voice rose at the end of the question with the urgency of his anxiety. “What could I possibly have done now? I just got here.” He seemed on the verge of whining.
Cain turned from the duo too much like one another and moved into his kitchen, flipping on the light as he went. “Come on Daisy.” He called to the dog as he scooped a serving of food into her bowl. The dog obediently followed Cain but merely sniffed at the food disinterestedly. She nosed at the pile of nuggets that was called dinner and even took one in her mouth. It was neatly deposited on the floor next to the bow. Unwanted.
Owen gave Anita a knowing glance before he followed Cain into the other room. “You didn’t tell your sister.” He wasn’t quite reprimanding his son but it was as close to it as he could get.
While messing with the dog’s dinner Cain’s back was turned to the door, he whirled around at his father’s accusation and threw his hands up. “What - what was I supposed to say?”
Owen repeated the frustrated gesture, hands up and slapping back down against the thighs. Father and son in a display of the power of genetics in gesticulations. “Words, Cain. Try some words.”
Cain’s tail had uncurled from his leg and a fine line of hair raised along the edge of it signaling his growing frustration with the encounter. “Did you say words to mom?” He shot back veering off topic. But he did so because he knew it would wound or at least stun his opponent even if it was a low blow.
It worked. Owen faltered for a half second, his mouth half open. The subject of Cain's behavior was forgotten for the moment. “I - yes. We said some words.” He folded his arms protectively in front of his chest as he carefully monitored Anita out of the corner of his eye.
Meanwhile, Daisy happily waddled out of the kitchen in search of a toy or her bed and left her dinner largely untouched which drew the attention of her owner. Cain’s hands went up again. “Oh my fucking god. What did you feed her?” He demanded of both father and sister at once, eyes darting back and forth between them.
