'This stupid kid. Did he just read and forget about it?'
Alfin watched as the boy was enjoying the joy of walking for the first time in his life from the side.
It seemed as if the boy was just learning to walk for the first time in his life. The boy constantly stumbled and lost balance, a few times he even fell but the joyful expression on the boy's face never disappeared as he got back on his feet and started to get used to walking on two legs again.
The boy was laughing and trying to hold back his tears which made Alfin a bit melancholic.
He too had lost his limbs in the fights before. He was wheelchair-bound for a week and in this case, he can relate to the kid in front of him.
But what he couldn't relate to was the joy the kid was feeling. He could understand why the boy was so happy, why he kept trying after falling and why the complex mixture of emotions he was feeling. But he can not relate to these aspects.
