[@carla6677][@Overlord24] Still a bit upset about the pregnancy and the shock that came with it, Joel watched as Avary was trying to comfort and calm Ella. Did everyone else know about all of this? more than likely but this could be a reason for Joel to be home a bit more often and seeing the fear and distress his daughter was going through...she needed her parents and siblings more than ever. Joel needed a few moments to calm and soften himself up knowing yelling was not going to make Ella feel any better. That's when he saw Connor come over to comfort his sister as well.
