"Mister. Please, we wanna go back home."
Adaline found this man to be different from the others too. She grabbed his robe and held it while looking up at him with pleading and hopeful eyes.
The man felt the gaze but closed his eyes as if in pain. He stiffly shook his head no and continued checking Sakura's wound to see how bad it is.
Sakura can see that the it was hard for the man to reject their pleas and narrowed her eyes in thought.
'He doesn't seem to want to go along with this bizarre "celebration" but then why does he still follow this peoples commands? No.... better yet, would such a guy stay if he displays such dislike in the using of children? I bet he would loath the parents who give their children in a silver platter just to please their 'lord.' So why does he still go along with it?'
"Why..? Why won't you help us!?"
Adaline eyes grew hazy and misty from the new tears that began to slide down her face. Her hands trembling while clutching his robe.
