Episode 5: I am sorry

Out of all that arrogant nuisance, a boy runs to the girl, cheerfully greeting her.

Owen: Hello!...Nice to meet you, where are you from?

_____________________________________________________________________________

Caroline turns to look at the white-haired boy. He is as small as a seven years old child. The two big green eyes boring at the other. Caroline puts down her guard pinching the other's chubby cheeks.

Caroline: Nice to meet you too!... I am from...fr...om somewhere... anyway! Where are your parents?

Owen: At home ...

Owen puffs his cheeks slapping Caroline's hand away.

Owen: I am not a child! I am twenty-one already!

Caroline: Oh! I am sorry about that!

Liam: Yes... not...

Out of a sudden, a big muscled creature picks up Owen and puts him on his shoulder. The contrast between the two is very visible to the eyes. Caroline looks at Liam examining his silver hair.

Caroline: Is that real?

Liam:..

The orc doesn't answer and just prepares to leave when Owen the dwarf slaps his cheeks with his little hand. The frowns on his face defeat Liam as he answers a yes gloomily.

Owen: Good!

He pats the orc's head and motions him to bring the girl with them. The orc shakes his head as a sign that he doesn't want to.

Owen: Please....!

The two big puppy eyes always work! The orc looks at the dwarf and then strides to where the girl is.

Liam: Where do you want to go?

Caroline's ears perk up to this...

Caroline: Can you show me where the Arena is?

Owen: We are going there too! How about joining us?

Caroline smiles in delight. The orc turns towards the train as the girl follows them from behind....
