บท 246: Found Joy Even In The Smallest Thing

Asher followed Iris to the hall located within the main building of the orphanage. The rest of the staff were also there. They were preparing for the next occasion.

From a few boxes sitting on a long table, the staff started taking out the items inside one by one. Asher caught the sight of colorful papers, ribbons and dried flowers among other things.

"We'll be having an art session with the children," Iris began explaining to Asher who was quietly scanning the area, "Everyone will get gifts. Then, we'll play for a bit before having lunch with them."

Nodding quietly, Asher signaled that he understood. He moved away from Iris, heading to the long table. He didn't realize that she had been looking at him.

Iris was surprised to see how cooperative Asher was from the first moment he stepped foot at the orphanage. He seemed out of place and awkward when he had to interact with the others.
