The Pinky Promise

'Ah. There's one thing why he would say that kind of thing.'

I looked at the kid again. No matter how hard I try, I kept on remembering Jarvis with that hair. Although it had a slight difference with his, I still can. I still can remember that picture made by my own. His smiling and innocent smile.

"What do you mean?" Aaron asked the kid, confused as he looked back between me and the kid but the kid stayed silent as if he was deaf.

"He might have heard my voice that one night." I said, lying again as it is a part of my daily life. "I remember him sneaking out in the middle of the night to get some food to eat. Right, kid?"

The kid blinked and eventually nodded. "Yes! Yes! You were the one awake that night!"

I can't help but to smirk at the kid. He do know how to lie when needed huh?

"You should've told us you were hungry." Neodelle said at the kid. "So we can accompany you. Look, you even encountered a monster in that night."
