The Strange Human (2)

The auction went on, new products were introduced and the people bid for them.

The girl had woken up some time ago, but she hadn't said a word. She was probably afraid.

I continued watching the auction without thinking too much about her until a small voice reached my ears,

" T-thank you, sir."

I look at the girl, who refused to meet my gaze. She did look a lot better now.

" You don't have to be afraid, your brother sent me to uh- save you.", I say trying to reassure the little girl.

" Really !", the child asked, her eyes widened in surprise.

I chuckle seeing her and say,

" Yes, you can trust m-"

'BOOM'

A loud explosion shook the whole auction room surprising everyone inside, Low tremors could be felt emanating from the stage where people wearing costumes had appeared out of nowhere,

Heroes.

" It's going to be alright.", I say comforting the fear-stricken Neela....or Neelu, I can't really remember her name.
