Capítulo 105: An Offer

An uneventful week passed almost instantly.

On this particular day, the members of the orphanage were congregated near the outskirts of the village. They were here in preparation to send Kano off on his journey with Goran Rasmus.

"Remember, Kano. Talk less, listen more. And think twice before speaking. You will be following Mister Rasmus, so we mustn't cause him any troubles," Guy instructed.

"And make sure to eat your food on time. Don't be picky and eat whatever you are given!" Grace added while suppressing her sobs.

"Matron Reva, Teacher Larks, please don't worry. Kano will be in safe hands. Besides, we will be back before you even know it!" Goran said to alleviate the affected woman.

"M-M-Matron..." Kano mumbled with a low expression. He rubbed his eyes with his sleeves and promised, "I'll return quickly, okay? Please don't cry..."

"I'm not crying," Grace denied vehemently, however, the gushing stream of tears indicated otherwise.
