(Fixed)
As Izach was about to return to the Bench, He and Lily were sitting on Izach was Holding 2 Cups of cold refreshments 1 cup in each of his hands. He was about to walk at the bench where lily was sitting on .he gazed at the little girl. She was alone looking at the Children who were happily playing and were having fun. Even though He has no Clue what Expression the little girl was showing. Izach knew Very well there was still a wall stopping the little girl from leaping through the world of the unknown.
Yet the Small rabbit that was coated in Platinum White Fur. Eyes as dark as Black Waiting for her mother to Come home never Leaving the Home She Ones Lives in Not knowing how to walk nor leap to the place she wishes to see. As if the poor little rabbit was caged and locked inside that had no freedom or Selfish reason to do as she wishes. As The Little Rabbit gazed at the Rabbits that were Running Uncertainly Not knowing the path that they were walking. The little rabbit can only see a cliff of the unknown separating her from everything She Desires. her Greed.Yet, Only her Silent Plead for the Help was Heard.
Holding One Cup at Both sides of his Hand and there he saw Lily and was Sitting On the bench Alone. He Firstly handed Lily's Drink First then sat down beside the little girl. Then Lily took a sip at the cold drink.
"Does it taste good?" Izach Asked.
"Yup it Does .it's Refreshing as Well Uncle!"
"Then How About we take a look at the Treats we bought from Granny?" Izach said with a grin on His Face
"Then Can I take The First Look Then Uncle? Can I? Can I?" Lily Insisted While Her Small Yet empty Face Came Closer and Closer to Izach's Face.
"He-hey don’t stare at your Uncle Like That? I Might Just take you away if you're this Cute?" Izach Said in a Cheeky Manner While a grin Crept on his Face.
"B-bad Uncle!!" Lily was Flustered and immediately looked away at Izach While Pouting.
'Really What Gullible Child." As Izach Pinched Lily's Cheek, A grin slowly crept at Izach's Face like an Idiot.
"Uhn-Uncle Mfff-my Chhhhh-cheek" Lily Tried to Escape Free from Izach's Grasp And then lily's Cheeks slowly Turned Red. Izach Immediately Noticed and released the hand that was pinching on lily's Cheeks.
"Ughhhnnnnn My Cheeks Hurtssss" Lily Retorted
"Well you were Just too Cute *Chuckle”
“Hnnnnmp!! Well Your Just a bully Uncle and doesn’t help that you pinched my Cheek” As Lily Looked Away at Izach. Lily looked like she was throwing a fit.
Izach Just Chuckled as he Slowly Rests his arm at the Crown of the little girl's head slowly and gently combing her Hair.
As Izach and lily peacefully sitting at the bench. While the sun bright Light Radiated at the whole vicinity of the park. The Laughs and Cheers of People passing by walking to the path they take.
“Lily, Can I Ask You Something?”
“What is It, Uncle?”
“W-Well I know it’s a bit rude of me asking you. But Can I Ask Where You’re Mother Works Does?”
“We-well she Works as a Cook at a Tavern Why Did You Ask?”
“Then surely you’re Mommy’s Cook Delicious food then?”
“Yep Mommy Is a Great Cook; Every time I watch her Cook I really wish I Can Cook for her even If it’s the Only Thing I Can Do when she’s Tired…”
“Then Why Don’t You Ask your Mother to Teach You then?”
“W-well Mommy Said That I was Still Too young to hold a Knife B-but I Am Helping her With Washing the Dishes and Always Doing the Chores!!”
“Oh Really *Chuckle-“As Izach and Lily were Talking with Each Other. He Learned Many Things About The Little Girl. When there was A Time When She Was Little and They Had No food at their table to Eat For A day they even had to starve for a night, And time Lily Got Sick and During winter that her Mother had to her best in to look for a Doctor in the middle of a harsh winter, While Most Importantly her 4th birthday The Only Thing Her Mother Bought From her Was A piece of bread. Even though the young girl wished for a doll as a gift but she didn’t refute back or even got angry at Her Mother. She tried to understand The Situation they were in but other children at her age would obviously get angry or grumble but she didn’t.
“Well, Uncle Do you Think I Can be Free?”
“Why You Were Always Free, To Begin With?” As Izach Patted Lily’s Head.
“Uncle Had Already told you Can Do what you Want you Can Be Free or Do what you no one will judge you if they Did I’ll always be here Okay?”
"Then How About We Eat the Snacks We Bought From granny then?" As Izach Insisted
"Okay!!" Lily Cheered as She Slowly took out 2 pieces of Sandwich 1 and sandwich in both hands. Taking Large Bites that Many Would even doubt a Girl at her size could eat this quickly. Even Izach Was Shocked as he saw the Young Girl Eating the Sandwich as her Life Depended on it.
It even Made Izach Chuckle. As Izach Izach glanced at Lily, he saw a Crumb at lily’s Cheeks. Izach took out a Handkerchief and Gently Wiped off the Crumbs at Lily’s Cheek. Izach just smiled at a young girl.
Then He Grabbed the Sandwich At the basket was filled with treats they bought from granny. He took a Sandwich and slowly took a bite.
Different Kinds of flavor Filled Izach’s tongue The Crisp and Texture of the Sandwich filled his mouth that even Made Izach Spoke out Loud.
“It’s Delicious Uncle!!” Lily Shouted in Joy As she looked at Izach. As the little Girl eating away the Sandwich.
“Ye-Yeah” As Izach Replied.
Two Of Them Enjoyed Eating at the Bench As The light Breeze Swept by. 15 Minutes Has Passed as both of them slowly Tidied Up the Mess they made. Both of them sat down at the bench yet again digesting the Delicious treats they have eaten.
“T-thank Y-you Uncle…” Lily answered while she slowly leaned on Izach’s Shoulder. As Lily’s Head Leaned on Izach’s Shoulder. For The First Time, the young girl felt warm. Even though he only met him for such a short time he gave her the Understanding she needs.
“You don’t need to thank me” As the Quietly Sat on the Bench looking at the busy streets of the Capital. Gently Combing the Crown of Lily's Head.
5 minutes have passed.

While Both Izach and Lily were Quietly Sitting and Watching the Busy streets of The Capital. By the Looks Of it, the Little Girl beside Izach's Seems to be occupied with something.
“Don’t you want to play with them?” Izach Asked Lily.
As Lily Heard. Izach's Voice the Young Girl Glanced At Izach.” Ca-can I?” Lily Asked Izach the Young Girl was in Disbelief. Knowing them Should Find Her Mommy Izach Insisted she should enjoy and Play with the people at her Age.
“Ye-yes You Can But O-on “As Izach Was Talking. Lily Quickly Stood up and Ran. As The Young Girl Looked Back and Waved her Hand while Shouting “I’ll be back!!” Lily’s Figure Slowly Became Smaller and Smaller with Each Step she takes.
As Izach Though.’ Be Greedy and be Selfish. Even If that time comes that the people around, Judge who you are there will always be someone by your side.’ A Smile Slowly Crept at Izach’s Face. Even Though He can't see the young girl's Face he knew from the bottom of his heart The Young girl is Slowly But surely the wall in her heart was crumbling.
-Swish
The Wind breeze passes yet again as Izach hair slowly fluttered in the wind as he stood up at the Bench he was sitting on while he gazed up at the clear blue sky. ‘I don’t need to be afraid. If I Can’t Remember or See Anyone's Faces, Then even if the time comes that the people around me. Came to judge who I am, I won’t Look back I’ll just have to face it head-on!' Izach thought to himself. Then he slowly raised one of his hands at the Sky and slowly formed a fist as he slowly grasped the sun it was far from reach yet the warmth that he felt never left him. He took a deep breath while raised his head high and finally took the First Step forward for the First Time the Shade of doubts began to disappear just like the shade of the tree near the bench he was seating on. As each step, A faint Glimmer of light began to seep inside the world of Doubts in Izach's mind. As his Mind saw light while the doubt around him slowly began to crack and then crumbled like a wall around him. It was clear Izach can clearly see everything around him he can just keep moving forward and everything will be fine.
