章 45: Chapter 44

Suddenly, a little boy came to view and Raiden became particularly interested in him because unlike the rest of the people around, the little boy was crying. He was sitting alone on the grass, his knees drawn to his chest, his big eyes filled with tears, looking scared and lost.

He reminded Raiden of himself and Raiden felt his heart soften at the sight. Quickly, he stood up from the swing and approached the boy. The closer he went, the more he noticed things like the boy's expensive clothes and shoes, the bruises on his arms and chin. His red rimmed eyes and tear stained chubby cheeks. He looked to be around 6 or 7 years old.

"Hey, are you okay?" He asked the boy, considering the injuries on his body and the boy just stood up, ran to him, hugged his legs and started crying excessively. It was completely unexpected and a bit scary for his sudden outburst drew a lot of attention.
