Elijah frowned as he realized he was crying. He turned to the man to hug him trying to quietly apologize for upsetting him. He looked up at Ben. " You are exaggerating. I am sure they've heard worse from men on the docks. And I don't think he'd be so unkind to them." He remembered the fight between Bram and Anne with him, but it seemed to be in the past. "Don't act like he'd speak the same way to children. You don't know..' He turned to Anthony.

"I am so sorry. Please stop crying. I didn't mean to upset you.." He frowned feeling guilty and frustrated as he didn't know what was going on or how to fix things and this happened so often.
