บท 340: 340 Breaking balance

-Step. Step.

With slow and careful steps, I walked up to the ground floor of the orphanage.

-Step.

I was standing in the hallway that we had seen countless times, however, unlike how I had gone down to the basement by myself, I was not alone as I stood in this corridor.

"Hey handsome."

"Hello Miss pretty lady…"

El was standing right beside me as if she had also climbed up from the basement with me.

"Looks like things are going to be difficult."
