章節 239: HOW WE MET (2)

"The lad asked the girl why she kept on following him. 'I don't have money or food. What else do you need?' His words were harsh, but the girl understood that his social responsibility ended when he helped her reach the clinic. They should have gone separate ways after that."

"She told him that she was lost and that she had no money. She asked for his help again."

"The lad's facial expression shifted from confusion, coldness, helplessness, and reflection of other complex emotions. In the end he offered his home. 'If you want to stay for the night, it's up to you. I don't really care, but my house is untidy and there are rats and garbage all over. And I don't have a bed, only a ragged couch. But I've already reached home, I cannot offer to send you to your own home or to the municipal hall or nearest precint.' That was what he said while opening the door."
