I'm sorry

"Uncleeee!!"

A kid jumped out of the building, ran as fast as he could, and clung to his side.

"You are toooooooo late!"

He looked up at his uncle with a sullen face, but then his face brightened up all of a sudden.

"Uncle uncle!"

He let go of his uncle's legs and took one step back.

"Did you also see them?"

"See what?"

His uncle finally talked for the first time. His voice was cold and emotionless, but the kid didn't seem to care.

"Those shiny thingies! They were eveeerywhereee! There were toooo many of themmm! They were floating in the air like jewelry! They were pretyyy!!!"

"...."

The kid moved back and spread his arms out with the most cheerful face someone could have.

"And there were also those hugeeee bubbles! They were soo pretty and sparkly! And they were shining! Did you see them as well, uncle?"

"...."

The kid excitedly stared at his uncle's face, waiting for his answer.

"Ariyan."
