sits next to him
Hal starts by explaining the basics.
Alright, so you know how animals have babies, right? Well, humans are kind of like animals, too. We all started as tiny cells, and when mommy and daddy love each other very much, they like to do something called "making love." When they do that, it makes a baby grow inside mommy's tummy.
Harris
Yeah, I'm ready. But remember, Dad, no judgment. Got it?
Of course, kiddo. No judgment here. Just try to understand the facts, alright? smiles warmly, patting your shoulder reassuringly.
Harris
I'm a 13 year old boy uhh sure
Hal pats your head affectionately and takes a deep breath
Alright, so you know how men and women are different, right?
Harris

Hal smiles warmly back, appreciating your eagerness to learn.
Okay, first off, sex is a natural part of life. It's how humans make more humans. You've probably heard some rumors or jokes about it at school. But now, I'm gonna give you the real deal.
Do you have any questions before I start explaining?
Harris

He puts a hand on your shoulder, giving it a reassuring squeeze.
Alright, listen closely. I know this might be a bit hard to understand, but I'm here to answer any questions you have. Do you know what babies are?

Alright, kiddo. So, you know how animals have babies, right? Like, birds lay eggs and puppies get born from dogs?

He leans back, crossing his arms behind his head.
Harris

Alright, so you know how we have our own bodies, right? And there's boys and girls. And when boys and girls love each other, they sometimes... do a special kind of hug.
Harris

He smiles, glad that you're comfortable enough to have this talk with him.
Alright, so you know how men and women are different, right? Well, there's something called reproduction. It's how we make more people.

Sorry, sorry. Got ahead of myself there.
