It would have for you, eventually. [Sanji's stomach still does angry flips when he remembers that day, when he was freed and ran. His memories come up quickly, and burn inside of him, twisting and pulling. And he's not once actually stopped to deal with these feelings. So they keep getting worse as they're buried, and they won't let him be.
But something does come up through this, that gives Sanji a strong measure of comfort and relief. This child will not ever know that horrific hunger, that miserable pain inside of him. The pain of living in the Vinsmoke household can't be erased, but there has to be a healthy, normal way for him to work through it. And Sanji can raise him to have a healthier outlook on every aspect of his life, if he just manages to not fuck this up.
The startled noise catches his attention, and he ushers to boy to the sink. Time to wash the wound, bandage it, and for the love of all blue no matter how hard it is, not pull any stupid macho standards on him. He's just going to treat it like it is, he's a child with a cut, and cuts hurt. And he wants to be a good caretaker so this kid has the best life possible.] You'll get better at it. Skills take time to build up. It's an art that needs to be honed.
