Shadow Monster-III

Elise saw the lines of worry that appeared on Vella's face. If it was a matter back in hometown, Elise could tell it was an urgent one that could make Vella felt sad. They both stopped at the point of conversation and Elise raised her hand to place it over to Vella's back.

"I am sure it would be alright," she encouraged Vella who was in a plight. It answered Elise's question why Vella looked sad before.

Vella brought Elise's hand from her back, and smiled at her, "You are right, I am sure it would be alright," yet to contrary to her words Vella didn't seemed like she was alright, "You know I have always thought this but you are a very kind person Elise," praised Vella suddenly and her words surprised Elise who didn't expect her friend would praise her.

"I don't think I am that kind," she answered to receive Vella's chuckle.
