Erina's Condition

All eyes were on the crying girl.

Erina hopped out of her chair and wrapped her arms tightly around Maura. "Big Sis, what's your name?"

"Big Sis?!"

Maura was taken aback by Erina's statement. She had never been called that before, but it made her happy when she saw Erina's innocent face.

"Call me Maura, okay Erina?"

"Okay, Maura!"

Jack didn't know what to say or do. He now understood that being overfriendly ran in Willim's family, but he still wasn't sure why Erina was crying in the first place. Why would she need a frost pearl so badly?

"Jack, I'm sorry about this," Willim apologized and shook his head.

"Don't worry about it. Since Maura gave it away, it's Erina's now. I'm just confused. Why does she need something like a frost pearl so badly?" asked Jack, hoping they'd be more open after receiving the frost pearl.

"I'm not the one who should answer that. If Erina is willing, then let her."
