When Veronica touches him, Mathias feels that familiar spark of warmth, the enjoyment he gets from even the most fleeting touch and he almost doesn't look up immediately. There are monkeys, however, and he lifts his gaze to the trees, a soft laugh escaping.
"We have monkeys," he agrees quietly, watching them intently. One flicks its tail and Mathias tilts his head, studying the movements, the way it swings from branch to branch. After so much anticipation, he suspected he'd be disappointed, but that's not the case. "I guess I did see some, after all."
